Automatic container snapshots? cv4pve or zfs for a small homelab?
From my research, I can see two options: - Proxmox specific cv4pve-autosnap - generic zfs-auto-snapshot, available in repos

Some Proxmox Backup, Snapshot and Storage questions
Since Proxmox natively supports ZFS, you could that to make your snapshots. You can do automatic snapshots with zfs-auto-snapshot or for VMs with cv4pve-autosnap.

zfs hourly snapshot - snapshot naming interpretation needed
If you're using zfs-auto-snapshot (and it looks like you are), note that the timestamps are always in UTC, not your local timezone. Is your timezone somewhere around UTC-12:00?

How to use Cron command to create zfs snapshots every hour with naming the time?

Maybe a very uncommon use for sanoid: setup for snapshots 2 daily
zfs-auto-snapshot is as simple as it comes. It has cron jobs that show you how to take periodic snapshots. It cleans up its old versions.

Snapshots and replication with zfs hold and zfs release
Another option to look at (again, 3rd part stuff, not vanilla zfs hold/release stuff) is zfs-auto-snapshot which takes (and retains) n snapshots based on how you run it. See: https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs-auto-snapshot

Advice needed: preparing for the worst
Also, for being able to quickly revert mishaps with your vms, and lxc containers i use https://github.com/Corsinvest/cv4pve-autosnap to make hourly snapshots of all vms and lxc containers (taking snapshots suspends disk io from the vm's point of view. Some software, especially game servers, can't deal with this).

Sanoid for snapshots management?
If you want automatic snapshots that appear in the Proxmox GUI and can be rolled back from there, too, you could check out https://github.com/Corsinvest/cv4pve-autosnap. I recently set it up and it works nicely. It uses the Proxmox API to trigger snapshots. Corsinvest is the company behind this tool. They are part of the Proxmox partner program.
