Proxmox No Subscription Updates

If you’re using Proxmox for your homelab, you probably don’t want an Enterprise plan, so you have to update your Proxmox nodes to use the No subscription updates.

Take note the “No subscription” updates are not production ready and you should not use it in a production environment.

Disable the Enterprise repositories

You first need to disable the Enterprise repositories. Click on your host, then on Repositories under Updates. Select each of the repositories highlighted in yellow, and click “Disable”.
