LXC AutoScale is a resource management daemon specifically designed for Proxmox environments. It automatically adjusts CPU and memory allocations with no downtime and can clone LXC containers based on real-time usage metrics and predefined thresholds. Can be run locally or remotely to make your containers always optimized for performance, managing spikes in demand, and optionally preserving resources during off-peak hours.

• ✅ Works withProxmox 8.3.3

Quick Start

LXC AutoScale is packed with features that make it an essential tool for managing the auto-scaling of your LXC containers on Proxmox:

• ⚙️ Automatic Resource Scaling
• ⚖️ Automatic Horizontal Scaling
• 📊 Tier Defined Thresholds
• 🛡️ Host Resource Reservation
• 🔒 Ignore Scaling Option
• 🌱 Energy Efficiency Mode
• 🚦 Container Prioritization
• 📦 Automatic Backups
• 🔔 Mail and Push Notifications
• 📈 JSON Metrics
• 💻 Local or remote execution
• 💃 Easy autoconf for humans
• 🐳 Docker supported

Getting started with LXC AutoScale on your Proxmox host is quick and simple:

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fabriziosalmi/proxmox-lxc-autoscale/main/install.sh| bash

systemctl status lxc_autoscale.service

If the conditions set in the configuration are met, you will quickly observe scaling operations in action.
