+******************
+Running on Proxmox
+******************
+
+Proxmox is an open-source platform for virtualization. Users with a support
+subscription can download a qcow2 image that can be imported into Proxmox.
+
+Deploy VyOS from CLI
+====================
+
+
+Copy the qcow2 image to a temporary directory on the Proxmox server.
+
+The commands below assume that virtual machine ID 200 is unused and that
+the user wants the disk stored in a storage pool called `local-lvm`.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ $ qm create 200 --name vyos2 --memory 2048 --net0 virtio,bridge=vmbr0
+ $ qm importdisk 200 vyos-1.2.8-proxmox-2G.qcow2 local-lvm
+ $ qm set 200 --virtio0 local-lvm:vm-200-disk-0
+ $ qm set 200 --boot order=virtio0
+
+Optionally, the user can attach a CDROM with an ISO as a cloud-init data
+source. The below command assumes the ISO has been uploaded to the
+`local` storage pool with the name `seed.iso`.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ $ qm set 101 --ide2 media=cdrom,file=local:iso/seed.iso
+
+Start the virtual machine in the proxmox GUI or CLI using ``qm start 200``.

+and installation of this hypervisor.
