Process for building a new RMU for the Gen 1.5 ICR

The following guide describes how DFINITY monitors their ICR Sites. If you choose to follow this guide, completing everything up to Best Practices will get you remote access to the RMU and the ability to add additional services via teleport. The Best Practices section does introduce some services that greatly improve the overall experience such as being able to update firmware on all servers remotely.

Once Proxmox is installed and reachable (Step II.A), the rest can be done remotely.
