proxmox: Usage of hookscripts
Summary
I am trying to provision lxc containers via ansible and to have further ansible roles to configure the containers (add packages, etc...) however my first step would be to enable ssh on the containers. i figured i could use hookscripts on my newly created containers to install the ssh package and start the service but i am struggling to understand how to use this configuration token. i have tried to store a script on the proxmox server in one of my mounted volumes but i consistently get Creation of lxc VM 10001 failed with exception: 500 Internal Server Error: unable to parse directory volume name 'hooks/hook.sh'
This is the extract of my playbook, i figured that backups needs to be one of the volumes proxmox knows of but unsure:
- name: Create new container with default
hosts: containers
gather_facts: false
tasks:
- name: Create Containers
delegate_to: 127.0.0.1

fwiw I finally got hook scripts working for myself. You might want to try changing the directory name from hook to snippets, this seems to be where PVE expects scripts to be, this might be the parsing issue you're facing.
thanks! that's a good lead. do you happen to know where this 'snippets' directory needs to be on the proxmox host?
