Thanks Aaron for the detailed response. I am investigating my options for additional memory on this server. It sounds like that will solve my issues.

Thanks Aaron I have found the OOM entries in the syslog that coincide with the shutdowns. I see entries like Out of memory: Killed process 31263 (kvm) total-vm:20341864kB, anon-rss:17988224kB, file-rss:2248kB, shmem-rss:4kB, UID:0 pgtables:38676kB oom_score_adj:0 When this process kicks in...

Hi Everyone I have recently migrated an ageing host to a new server. I have always used hardware RAID, but this new one has no hardware RAID card so I have gone for a ZFS mirror. It is running across 2x 1.8TB NVMe SSD drives with a Xeon E2236 with 64GB Memory. I have a total of 9 guests...

Hello I am looking to replace our current email filtering system and I thought I would have a look at Proxmox Mail Gateway. A question I have not been able to find an answer to is: Can this system be used to filter email for multiple domains with multiple destination servers, [multi tennant]...

Hi Everyone I am having an issue where in my Windows 2008 Server R2 Guests, the Virtio hard disks are shown as removable storage. At first I thought this might just be a driver issue, but after updating to the latest Virtio windows viostor driver, I still have the same issue. I have checked a...

I was successful in the recovery of this problem, and just when I thought all was good in the world, this server began to suffer high IO delays, so after shutting down all the running VMs, I thought, "..a server reboot should do the trick". Well, I have found myself in the same situation again...

Just an update to finalize and close this thread. I sucessfully recovered all data on this LV. However, as I write this, I am in the process of doing it again. I am taking this as a sign that the Highpoint 4320 controller has some kind of issue, causing this problem to re-occur. I will...

Yes, the whole 6TB is used as the /data LV. I have made some progress I think. I have used the backup file in /etc/lvm/backup as follows pvcreate --restorefile /etc/lvm/backup/pve --uuid <UUID of the PV as referenced in this file> /dev/sda [the physical volume] At this point, pvs -v now shows...

I swapped the Highpoint Card for another the same [had a spare here] and the problem is unchanged. Array still listed as OK, still shows the drive in fdisk, but fails to initialise during boot. Could this be some sort of corruption in the LVM itself? Is there a way to check it other than fsck as...

Thanks for the reply. I thought the RAID could be the culprit at first, however, when I look at the BIOS setup, the array is listed as Status OK [I made a mistake on the card, the LSI is in a different server, this is a Highpoint 4320 and the mirror is 60Gb not 320gb] I see both raid volumes as...

I have a problem that has just occurred after a reboot of my main proxmox server. During boot I get an error that the server "Couldn't find device with UUID xxxxx...." [This UUID is for the /dev/pve/data LV] I can Control-D to continue and the system boots, however, due to the error above, I...

Yes, I followed that guide initially, however, I was unable to connect to the asm service until I made the changes above. After that, everything worked fine.

I have discovered the root cause of this problem. For the sake of the thread the issue was caused by the installation of the Adaptec Storage Manager software. Whilst installing, I was unable to connect to the service remotely. I made the following change to the hosts file [as advised by...

It occurs with all the VMs on this server. I have just created a new KVM and a VZ Container, and the problem is the same for these also. Blank screen. I have attached a screenshot also.
