I'm joining this conversation because we're evaluating alternatives to vmware and Proxmox seems to be very interesting for SMB.
Anyway If Dell is not supporting it on PowerEdge servers we are cannot propose it to the customers so they will prefer public cloud migration. Some customers have already taken this decision so Dell has lost some sales (we sell public cloud migration and maintenance, so for us it's the same).
Thank you for joining the conversation and sharing your perspective.Your feedback is valuable, and I hope Dell takes it into consideration.Thanks again for raising this it's an important discussion for the future of hybrid and on prem infrastructure.

Hello,
Dell has not validated Proxmox VE as an approved operating system for the PowerEdge servers.
You can find which OS's your PowerEdge supports here:

Replace the r520 at the end to R640, R750…. Whichever server you are working with.
