    PVE scheduled backup job onto a remote share fails due to dropped mount

    hi, I have been having some weird issue lately where my nightly scheduled backup job keep failing due to "dropped" remote share mount. The exact error is as follows: INFO: HOOK: job-init INFO: notified via target `[[[EMAIL ADDR]]]` TASK ERROR: could not activate storage 'to.nas.2.hdc.bups'...

    DC level Backup shows "ID=0 node entry" - what is it ?

    hi everyone, I have a DC level backup of my node (I have one node in my DC at the moment). I see a ID=0 entry in the list of nodes to backup. I am not sure what this is for. I deleted my backup job and recreated it one time before. The ID=0 went away until it reappeared 2 days ago. Can...

    auto remove tmp backup files post backing up

    I realize that this "hook" idea was originally suggested to clean up local hdd usage space. However, I have used this idea for additional "push notifications" before (phase=="backup-start"), and after backup ends (phase=="backup-end"). Works really well. Thanks for the idea.

    Email notifications when running Backup process manually

    hi, Is it an expected behavior in Proxmox to not send email notifications when a backup process is manually triggered? I have an email address in the backup schedule entry and it is set to send notfns "always". I know for a fact that I do get email notfns when the backup process runs on...

    auto remove tmp backup files post backing up

    I think I found the reason why I did not see HDD Usage size drop after the backup completion. The proxmox server's path to backups destination directory is a shared mapped to my nas storage location. This is done in the /etc/fstab and supposed to be set at boot time. I just noticed that my...

    auto remove tmp backup files post backing up

    Interesting, I don't see a /var/tmp/vzdumptmp<PID>_<VMID> format files at all in /var/tmp. Attached is the backup log dump for the last backup job run. FYI : My DC has one node and that node only hosts VMs currently. One of those VMs is a Portainer VM that hosts a few docker stacks/containers.

    auto remove tmp backup files post backing up

    in my vzdump.conf file, the override setting for tmp directory is not set. I therefore assume they're all going to a default temp folder. Do you know what the default temp folder is for vzdump files ? As far as whether the temp files are being left over: I notice the HDD usage space increase...

    auto remove tmp backup files post backing up

    hi, I have a DC level backup schedule that takes and stores backup files on to a share on my n/w. I realize that vzdump uses a (local) temp folder to store temp backup files while its in progress of backing up. Is it possible to configure vzdump to clear those temp backup files after...

    NGINX Proxy forwards to PVE's VM - VM does not response

    I needed a coffee to kick myself. my unifi router's firewall has a rule to allow proxy traffice to only a select set of IP addresses. I simply needed to add my VM's IP in there. Thanks everyone

    NGINX Proxy forwards to PVE's VM - VM does not response

    I have a centralized NGINX Proxy Server running on a physical server that is set up to forward an FQ <hostname.domainname.com> (http/https) request to a VM's IP/Port hosted inside of a PVE running on a different physical box. Both the Proxy Server and PVE are on the same n/w subnet. The VM...

    Unable to upload ISO image

    hello everyone - with the above, does it not mean there's sufficient HD space in local ? if so, why does the web gui "upload" from ISO fail ? Thanks

    Unable to upload ISO image

    under web gui/pve/local, I see this summary: This shows plenty of space as available. Not sure if I am missing anything. Still new to Proxmox and learning how the storage is diced and sliced by it.

    Unable to upload ISO image

    Interesting. The boot disk is a 250G SSD, but, the server does not report any real available space in that drive. Is there a config setting for proxmox that will let us change the temp file directory location ?
