Hello, Is it possible in PVE3/4 to configure guest without USB devices (no virtual USB hubs, devices) for better security (in case of bugs in USB virtualization)? Regards, Pawel

Hi, We've hit PVE3 hypervisor hang (blank console, no hints in syslog, only reset helps) after upgrading 3.10 kernel to pve-kernel-3.10.0-15-pve_3.10.0-40 (after 2-3 days of work). No such problems with earlier 2.6 and 3.10 kernels on this machine (after downgrade t 3.10.0-14-pve system...

Hi, After upgrade to pve-kernel-3.10.0-15-pve PVE3 kernel on our hypervisor died after 2 days of work; piece of kernel messages that was saved in logs before system died: kernel: [183957.122107] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000018 kernel: [183957.123019]...

Updaded package resolved the issue - snapshot backup of running KVM/LVM machine does not leave lock now. Thank you for help! Regards, Pawel

Hi, We've noticed problem after updating PVE 3.3 yesterday from # pveversion -v proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 3.3-139 (running kernel: 2.6.32-34-pve) pve-manager: 3.3-5 (running version: 3.3-5/bfebec03) pve-kernel-2.6.32-32-pve: 2.6.32-136 pve-kernel-2.6.32-27-pve: 2.6.32-121 pve-kernel-2.6.32-24-pve...

Thank you for pointing the saferemove parameter! Attached please find our two patches: Storage.pm-ib.patch (saferemove was not working without it) and LVMPlugin.pm-ib.patch (this one allows to limit I/O load during zeroing with new saferemove_throughput parameter - must have in our opinion...

Hello, Please consider extending virtual disk add/remove (extend may be difficult) functions to wipe (de)allocated space before it's visible to other guests. We've send similar idea to LVM mailing list http://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-lvm/2014-October/msg00018.html but more general...

After swiching from https to http (please verify: html editor at this forum does not work in https mode and messes up messages like in previous post). Hi, There is typo in PVE31 /etc/cron.daily/pve file that prevents dir /var/log/pve/tasks/D celanups. Fix: - foreach my $subdir (qw(0 1 2 3 4...

Hi, Please consider adding option to have hostname serving web panel added to HTML page title in PVE, i.e. Proxmox Virtual Environment HOSTNAMEWITHOUTDOMAIN not just Proxmox Virtual Environment This will help with identification and autotype tools. In PVE2.2 title is set in...

Hi, Is there any way to do PVE updates up to given point in time? This would allow one to update PVE in test evironment up to given version and after few hours/days/weeks of testing - apply _execly_ the same update to production environment (without changes that have been made available after...

Hi, When doing VM backup->restore in PVE2.1 (KVM, 2 LVM based disks) we've noticed that restored VM has reordereddisk LV naming; might be dangerous if one won't notice this change and resize wrong LV for example... Example: (1) /etc/pve/qemu-server/123.conf: bootdisk: virtio0 cores: 1 lock...

Might help: http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/11706-qmrestore-alloc_size-calculation-bug

Hi, After restoring VM from PVE2.1 backup with one 3GB virtual disk (exactly 3221225472 bytes = 3GB) we ended with VM having bigger LV than should be (3GB + 1 physical extend = 4GB in our case because in this scenario there was PE size = 1GB). Tested in the following environment: #...

Dietmar, Thanks for quick reponse! Hypervisor is rather sensitive thing, so - will chmod 700 /var/run/qemu-server break something in a way PVE works (now is 755) or may be applied safely? Do all legitimate PVE procs use root privileges to access those sockets or any other tech accounts...
