    Proxmox 8 Installer screen

    I have been searching for a solution for a few weeks on and off now. I have tried some instances of manually setting nomodeset, vga, etc. options in the kernel boot parameters. I have even tried using the tui nomodeset advanced option. The tui nomodeset advanced option kept losing its mind on...

    lxc-device add seems broken

    I just got through an adventure of a (seemingly) simple task of passing through a usb serial device to an lxc. All my research pointed to the fact that I should have been able to (at least) passthrough the device to a running container in real time with the lxc-device add command...

    GPU passthrough after lxc is created

    I have a poweredge r420 with proxmox7 and everything is running smoothly/great...except for one thing. My emby server will transcode files when it detects that it is needed. The problem is the dual Xeon E5-2430 v2 processors are not up to the task. I even tried bumping it up to 8 cores. I...

    Opinion on nextcloud

    I know this is the proxmox forum but I wanted to just get honest opinions from others who may have used nextcloud. I managed to get nextcloud installed inside a debian 11 lxc with php8. I also managed to move the data storage location from within the lxc vmdisk to my zfs pool. I am only...

    Web gui responsiveness

    I have installed proxmox 3 times now on 3 different hardware setups. The first one was a trial on a laptop with i7-3615QE processor and 16GB RAM. This install was on a 500GB SSD (non-zfs) and only had proxmox host and 2 lxc's. The second was my first real "home server" with i7-9700 after...

    Another zfs degraded thread...sorry.

    This is my first true go around with using a zfs pool as my storage backend. I recently installed proxmox on a dell r420 because I got it for free literally. I flashed the HBA with IT mode (H710P Mini) and created a zfs pool with 8 disks (2TB SSD) in RAID10. All disks were purchased NIB. I...

    [SOLVED] NFS server in LXC

    I have been researching and attempting this for a while now. Maybe it's impossible but I haven't given up completely. What I want to accomplish is to create an LXC that does two things...NFS and TFTP server. I have a ZFS pool and a directory that successfully gets mounted inside my container...

    [SOLVED] Combining NICs

    Fairly new to this part of proxmox. I have a server that I received recently that I want to install proxmox onto and move my existing proxmox "home server" onto this new server. My home server only has two NICs and I dedicated 1 NIC to my ISP connection and the second NIC to my LAN connections...

    Container vs VM

    I currently have my openwrt router as a container in proxmox and it is working generally without issue. It is an unprivileged container which I believe adds a level of security between the container and the host but I read (somewhere) that if I wanted to attempt a sysupgrade of openwrt within...

    [SOLVED] Configuring NIC as WAN input

    I am at work as I am writing this so I don't have config files ready. Currently I have a server that I have been working on. The goal is to virtualize openwrt (succeeded) and use openwrt as my primary router/gateway for my private LAN. I have a couple of ct/vms on the LAN bridge of openwrt...

    Directory storage as actual directory

    instead of passing an entire disk to a vm: Is there a way to specify a directory wherever I want, and then specify that the files to be stored there would be "raw"?. When I create a vm and go to add another hard drive, it gives me the option to choose my storage location BUT I only have the...

    Question on firewall

    I have a proxmox server that I am setting up to take the place of my mikrotik router. Currently it’s still offline (no internet access) until I am certain I have the networking worked out. The first proxmox server I installed was 6.3? and since it was a host in my LAN I used an iptables setup...

    [SOLVED] Openwrt in proxmox

    I have tried two methods. https://www.jwtechtips.top/how-to-install-openwrt-in-proxmox/ https://forum.openwrt.org/t/guide-run-openwrt-as-a-container-in-proxmox/44683 In the vm method openwrt does not completely boot. It gets stuck at the br-lan ready section and hangs. In the container...
