    Minor feature request: Add a var to $ENV{} for vzdump-hook scripts to use

    Would it be possible to add a var for use in hook scripts similar to $ENV{DUMPDIR} but that specifies the name of the Storage ID that was used for the backup? $ENV{STORID} ?? I've looked through some of the vzdump source code and didn't see anything like that available already, but apologies if...

    Is there a way to do "migratable" non-NFS bind mounts to a Container?

    Hello, I have what I think may be a stumper! I need to bind mount some storage into a Container in a way that it is still available when the Container is migrated to a different Proxmox node. I'm pretty sure you can do this with NFS but I cannot do that because the container is serving Samba...

    Question on vzdump phase order, for hook script usage

    That sounds right. I was pretty sure I'd overlooked it. Thanks!

    Question on vzdump phase order, for hook script usage

    Hello, What phase comes after the last backup is done, but before log-end? Put another way...the point at which all of the backups are done, but the log is still running. "backups-done"? or maybe "pre-log-end"? If this is not currently available I think it would be an excellent addition! (I...

    new backup format

    Is there a page somewhere that provides more information on the vma format? I'm curious if it carries any new features or benefits. From googling I can see there are some things on the full spec in mailing lists, but I was thinking more along the lines of a page with something like "Now with...

    1.9 host freezing up, eventually rebooting

    We have power issues here from time to time and I noticed that one of the times this happened was right after one of the brief flickers. None of the UPS units were showing an overload but I added another and redistributed the load just to be sure. No issues since adding another UPS, whereas...

    1.9 host freezing up, eventually rebooting

    I'm having an issue where one of the two hosts in our 1.9 cluster (the slave) is freezing up. When this is happening there is no video output and apparently no disk or network activity. The first time was during the day so I restarted it but the second time I wasn't able to get to it for a few...

    Proxmox 2.0 not likely to have SSD support

    Re: Proxmox 2.0 not likely to have SSD support [SOLVED] It is an OCZ Agility2 120gb 3.5inch drive. Here are a handful of the metrics I could think of off the top of my head (the first one being intended to show system install date). None of this is quite 'pure' cause I ran them in the middle...

    Proxmox 2.0 not likely to have SSD support

    Re: Proxmox 2.0 not likely to have SSD support [SOLVED] It does help. I actually ended up with an odd "solution"...doing nothing! bonnie++ testing was still giving ~230MiB/s read and write after 6 months of the Proxmox system being installed to the SSD. I had 3 or 4 VMs on there, medium use...

    Proxmox 2.0 not likely to have SSD support

    Re: Proxmox 2.0 not likely to have SSD support [SOLVED] isparks_curtis, I've been looking at the wiper.sh thread on the OCZ boards and there has been a long-running deal about wiper.sh's capabilities with regard to ext3 and LVM. It was my understanding that wiper.sh still could not TRIM an...

    I need help with DRBD - "Failure: (114) Lower device is already claimed."

    I wrote the article you're linking to. I think you are trying to do the same thing I was when I wrote it, but that setup never went into production and, as is, should not be attempted on production hardware. (Hence the warning at the top and my reluctance to post the second half) The biggest...

    Totally lost on versions

    For what it is worth I didn't read carefully enough when I installed and am using mostly OpenVZ on a 2.6.32 cluster. -One time a container remained locked after backup; but only once and it could have been the underlying storage that choked. -If I migrate containers I have to restart the...

    Domain for proxmox mail delivery system is still "localhost"

    As I said previously, imo the cleanest way to fix this (worked for me, ymmv) is to set 'mydomain = example.com' in /etc/postfix/main.cf. This seems much more portable to me than changing settings in that file related to the hostname, which would have to be done differently on each host. This...
