My production landscape lives on Proxmox VE and demands steady, hands-on care for at least twenty hours each week. The immediate need is two-fold in the hypervisor: I regularly create brand-new VMs and clone golden images, then tune resources, networking and storage so every guest comes online smoothly. You will own that lifecycle end-to-end—from template management through performance checks—using the native Proxmox toolset. Inside those guests runs SUSE Linux Enterprise. What I need here is continuous administration and maintenance: patching, user and service management, health monitoring and quick remediation when something drifts from baseline. Clean, documented shell scripting is welcome to automate the repetitive bits. On the application tier, the environment hosts SAP S/4HANA systems. The work spans day-to-day server administration, preventative maintenance and occasional involvement in upgrade projects. Kernel parameters, HANA database services, SUM-based upgrades, and post-upgrade validation all fall within scope, so prior SAP Basis experience will be essential. A solid grasp of networking—VLANs, bridges, firewalls and basic troubleshooting—rounds out the skill set I rely on. Deliverables each week • New or cloned VMs provisioned and verified in Proxmox • SUSE Linux instances patched, tuned and logged • SAP S/4HANA servers kept healthy, with upgrade or maintenance tasks closed and documented Clear change logs, quick response to incidents and proactive suggestions for optimisation are the success markers I will use. If you thrive in a mixed Proxmox/SUSE/SAP stack and can commit to a consistent weekly cadence, let’s get started.

Hi, This is a rare combination of Proxmox, SUSE Linux, and SAP S/4HANA Basis, and fortunately it's an environment I've supported before. I've managed VM lifecycle operations in Proxmox, automated SUSE administration with shell scripting, and handled SAP S/4HANA maintenance, kernel updates, SUM upgrades, HANA health checks, and post upgrade validation. What I bring is not just reactive support but proactive capacity planning, performance tuning, and detailed change management. For a 20+ hour weekly commitment, a fair market rate would be ₹2,000 to ₹3,500 INR/hour. The posted range is quite low for experienced SAP Basis and infrastructure expertise. Sahanaj

Hi! Running SAP S/4HANA on Proxmox VE with SUSE in production puts a lot of pressure on smooth VM lifecycle and fast remediation. Your point about cloning golden images, then tuning and health-checking each guest, is where most Proxmox setups get messy if not tightly managed. I’ve managed similar environments, including full VM provisioning, resource tuning, and scripted patching pipelines on SUSE. I’ve also supported S/4HANA landscapes, handling daily Basis tasks, kernel tweaking, SUM upgrades, and documenting each change. For me, reliable shell scripts are a must for repeat VMs and patch cycles. One question: do you use external backup tools for VM snapshots and HANA data, or will native Proxmox and HANA methods do the job? If you’d like, I can draft a one-page checklist showing how I’d run your weekly workflow, free. More samples of my admin and automation scripts are at work.techindika.com. — Pradeep

Hi, I have Linux and infrastructure experience, but I need to be upfront about SAP: SAP Basis is highly specialized. I can handle Proxmox VM management, SUSE Linux administration, patching, monitoring, and networking. But SAP S/4HANA specifically—kernel tuning, HANA services, SUM upgrades—requires certified SAP Basis expertise. What I can confidently deliver: VM provisioning and cloning, SUSE patching and maintenance, shell scripting automation, network troubleshooting, proactive monitoring. That covers maybe 70% of your scope. What needs specialist attention: SAP system upgrades, HANA database optimization, SUM-based migrations. Those require deep SAP knowledge I don't want to overstate. Honest option: I can handle the Proxmox and SUSE layers reliably at 20 hours weekly. For SAP work, you likely need someone with SAP Basis certification or extensive HANA experience. Or if you want a hybrid: I manage infrastructure, you bring SAP expertise in for upgrade projects. That works. What's your priority—pure infrastructure management, or do you need full SAP coverage? regards Abdullah
