How would I use them in Proxmox then? When I try to select a template it only shows the templates that are not "unknown".

I'm at a loss. I found all of the threads regarding the same issue and everyone says it's a naming error, I tried dozens of different filenames and none of them have worked. What am I doing wrong? Doesn't work: centos-5-standard_5.8_i386.tar.gz centos-5-standard_5.8-1_i386.tar.gz...

I see. I added the 2nd disk to expand the LVM which is why I was asking. I will be converting the KVM to an OpenVZ container shortly anyways. Thanks!

I added a 2nd storage drive to one of my KVMs but it still only shows the original storage size under the VM list. Anyway to show the combined storage?

Tried that. The container wouldn't start.

Excellent. Thank you again.

Thanks for the link! Awesome information indeed. So how does VZDump handle .raw files? Does it backup the whole file or just the non-metadata?

In my many hours of researching the various KVM image formats, I've finally decided on which to use but after implementing my choice I'm a bit confused. I was planning on using VMDK (VIRTIO) because it performed better under my local tests and because I was told it was considered "thin storage"...

Wow, you guys rock. :)

LoL, figures I would miss something like that. Oh well, the bind mount option actually works better for me because I can use the RAID1 disk space for OpenVZ and for scheduled backups in Proxmox. :)

Wow, this actually works out much better. For others who are interested, here's how I did it (since the script provided in OpenVZ's wiki does NOT work): Instructions are abbreviated, I can provide step-by-step if needed but I figured most people on these boards know how to create and mount a new...

Well I feel a bit foolish. It appears this is a limitation of OpenVZ and cannot be done at this time. Oh well, time to play with bind mounts...

Hello, I currently have my server configured with 2 RAIDs. A RAID10 setup (/dev/sda) and a RAID1 setup (/dev/sdb). I installed Proxmox and the RAID10 was set as the primary local storage, which I wanted. But I wanted to use the RAID1 setup for a single OpenVZ container, is this possible? I made...

But this appears to be specific to ProxMox (out of 500+ VMs, only 2 of them are experiencing this issue and those 2 are hosted by ProxMox).

Any ideas?

Very strange, I've never seen Linux cache 100% of the memory used. For example, out of 1024MB total RAM I have 295MB of RAM used, out of that RAM being used 295MB is cached. So in theory, my OS is not using any memory nor are any of my applications right? Why does my cached RAM in "free" always...

I know this is probably beyond the scope of the support here, but I've run out of ideas and hope somebody here might have one... So I am using a monitoring script (https://github.com/DimeCadmium/scrd) on 12 servers but 4 of them continue to fail. The only thing the 4 servers have in common is...

Possibly, I thought that was only an issue with the Advanced 4k Sector drives (which we found out rather quickly on our storage servers). Thanks for the tip but in all honesty the node is being used for some internal servers where performance is not needed. Right now the system specs are way...

I've enabled write cache on the drives and it has shown a 30% increase. Not bad, now if I can just get rid of the LVMs I'll be on easy street. LoL. :)

The system is far from overloaded (under high volumes of traffic we see 0.45 CPU load). We get much better performance when we don't use LVMs, no idea why the LVMs kill our disk IO. We have a handful of different blades all utilizing different drives and it seems that our RAID card is not LVM...
