## Management port

One NIC is used by Proxmox as _management port_.<br/>
This one is given a fixed IP address and bridged from inside the system.

## Disk passthrough

To allow for disk suspension and SMART checks from a VM, Proxmox needs to **directly** attach the disks to it.

Add all SATA disks to the VM with ID 100:

```sh
$ lsblk -do 'NAME,SIZE,TYPE,MODEL,SERIAL' -I '8'
NAME  SIZE TYPE MODEL              SERIAL
sda   3.6T disk ST4000VN008-2DR166 ZGY9WA2F
sdb   3.6T disk ST4000VN008-2DR166 ZGY9WDD5
sdc   3.6T disk ST4000VN008-2DR166 ZGY9WL4Z
sdd   3.6T disk ST4000VN008-2DR166 ZGY9W66G

$ qm set 100 -sata0 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST4000VN008-2DR166_ZGY9WA2F
$ qm set 100 -sata1 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST4000VN008-2DR166_ZGY9WDD5
$ qm set 100 -sata2 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST4000VN008-2DR166_ZGY9WL4Z
$ qm set 100 -sata3 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST4000VN008-2DR166_ZGY9W66G
```
