Re: Why does proxmox automatically change hardware ethernet after it's been installed
Lots of answers here:

It is udev that controls the names of devices.
Re: Repartition Proxmox to make a ZFS slice
Cool. I was hoping for Nemesiz to respond :)
So Erk, if you don't use OpenVZ, then you could use FreeBSD with native ZFS and use VirtualBox with the VirtualBox Web package (phpvirtualbox) that is in ports. I have never used phpvirtualbox so not sure...
Re: Repartition Proxmox to make a ZFS slice
Great! I think I will go ahead with this. I may go with the idea of creating a block device in my zpool for VMs and the rest ZFS for file storage. I will do some performance testing before hand.
So OpenVZ works too, but without quotas?
Re: Repartition Proxmox to make a ZFS slice
How is this going for everyone?
I am VERY interested in this as my proxmox server doubles at the houses file server. I am interested/concerned about performance, but testing so far is not scaring me off (test box)
You could always create a block...
Thanks a lot for this Tom.
No luck so far (not trying to boot off a raw block devices, just access one)
But I will keep plugging away at it tomorrow.
I will update this thread with my results.
Thanks.
Hi all
I was putting in the config file for a KVM guest the line below (proxmox 1.9)
scsi3: /dev/sdi,media=disk
It worked well, giving the guest access to the whole disk.
But in Proxmox 2.1 this does not seem to be working.
Am I missing something?
Thanks.
Ahhh a little more searching.

So it seems by use of bind mounts has confused vzdump.
root@proxmox:~# mount | grep bind
/mnt/storage/vz on /var/lib/vz type none (rw,bind)
..truncated...
So I might need to mount /dev/storage/one onto...
Hi all,
I have used LVM over the years and I understand to make a snapshot LV you need spare, unused space on the VG. Also, with vzdump you must put the backup to a separate partition.
But can that partition reside in the VG? It seems no.

I ran some testing last night and found this:
1. If you have an NFS share mounted by the container, vzdump fails saying an external process [lockd] is blocking the suspend.
2. If you have a bind mount of any sort, the data in that mount is not backed up by vzdump [YAY!]. I then also found...
[SOLVED] vzdump and network shares
Hi,
I was wondering the impact of networks shares on vzdump.
1. If a VE has a n NFS share mouted, does a vzdump try and backup the network shares data too?
2. If you bind mount into a VE using the HN, does vzdump try and backup all the data in that...
I found out the hard way not to have /var/lib/vz as a symlink.
The reason is proxmox loses its ability to report to you the disk usage of a container in the web gui. Vz from the command line could though, so maybe a missing trailing slash in the proxmox code.
So I changed it to a bind...

Oh ok. This must have changed since last time I looked at it.
Maybe I was looking when proxmox was using an older vzctl. I see it is an adequate enough version for this to work.
Hi all,
So with the limitation of NFS in OpenVZ containers, my thought was to do all the mounting and sharing of folders over NFS on the actually bare metal/proxmox server.
These mounts could be mounted directly into the containers FS or bind mounted. Likewise, the exports file can export...
