Hi everybody, we got a backup job which could not finish (disk full). The perlscript stayed pending (shouldn't we have a timeout here?). Furthermore other sheduled jobs got started cueing up with no chance to ever get processed. In my oppinion there should be a mechanism (semaphore or similar)...

We also run one Server 2008 (based on Vista), which we found unstable mainly with VirtIO (crashing weekly). We switched to IDE and Intel NIC, tried a lot of things. Now it crashes only twice a year but we can not get it a hundred percent stable. 2008 R2 is much better (and slower).We explained...

Does anyone watch videos with the Proxmox console? As I see it the console is mostly used for configuration and survey. A couple of times I ran into the situation that we got an error report from one of the hosted servers while on the road. And it was difficult to get java started due to...

Problem found: Disk has no overprovisioning activated. As statet here: http://www.samsung.com/global/business/semiconductor/minisite/SSD/us/html/about/whitepaper05.html "Samsung has chosen to implement a minimum amount of OP in its mainstream drives (the 840 PRO will not feature mandatory OP)"...

I'm in contact with HP support. They suggest updating every firmware, but also they advise that SSDs are not certified for that server. Nevertheless we have two mechanical disks and two SSD in the system of which one mechanical and one SSD have slow performance. Debian shows nothing wrong...

Hi all,i know, software raid is not supported but maybe someone has an idea on how to solve this: I have a fresh install of prxmox on a HP Proliant ML110 G7 with data (LVM) on a Raid1 located on two SSD Samsung 840Pro 512G. Everything seemed fine after creating md0 on /dev/sdb and /dev/sdd but...

To stay with the truth I have to say that on the first call the support guy was willing to help, only at the second call he told me his supervisor ordered him to stop supporting this. And of course I can try this and that but this device is worth 180 Euros and I expected to have it up and...

Yes, would be worth a try. But I have to install on monday so I hacked that thing badly: The only thing I got working was sending out emails via a shellscript so I hacked that like 'if [ "$MESSAGE" == "ONBAT" ]; then /etc/apcupsd/onbattery' using adapted scripts ... And for revenge I did not...

Yes, they bring their own java, their own libs and a blob linked to this... Not very nice. Not nice either is that this model (Zinto A 800) comes with a fan which is louder than the HP server it feeds. APC manages to go without forced coolin (no moving parts) so I consider this buy a mistake but...

mir, I know what you want to say. But this is not a discussion between us, you will have to convince the guy from tech support. He tested 'uname -a' and finished the conversation: "Software is not certified for such a system." And for some reasons I understand his attitude. You will not get...

Thank you for your suggestion but I already talked to tech support from hamburg. And they refused to help after it turned out that it is no Debian. From my findings it has something to do with libs. They bring their own but dont register them. Im not through with that and will let you know...

We try to get a ONLINE (brand name) Zinto A 800 running with Proxmox host. - Software installs ok. - Webserver and Management environment is up. - Power-on/off events are detected by software. - Mail is sent out. BUT it does not trigger shut down. Support says 'Proxmox not supported...' What...

Hi everybody, we still have some machines running smoothly on 1.9 but this can not last forever. How is the recomended way to go to 3.0? vzdump and qmrestore? Will the new system still read the old backup format? Regards Holger

HP does support Debian, but it is really hidden: http://downloads.linux.hp.com/SDR/downloads/ Read 'Getting started' Regards, Holger

OK, installed another vm with a freshly build iso and it is running with no issues. So maybe after all it was still one/some faulty iso files. Thank you for your attention, Holger

We are observing a strange behaviour on a HP Server which is newly installed w Proxmox 2.3-13: After installing (installation works fine) windows 7 machines they do not boot. After bios messages they stop at 'booting from harddisk'. We tried different iso files ( which all worked good on a...

Hi Paul, we have some machines out with a similar layout: A virtualized pfSense as firewall/router, a virtualized win server and physical clients. This is easy to achieve: Use vmbr0 for the inner lan segment. Attach office and pbx server to that interface (and of course the switch and lan...

Hi all, during a desaster recovery test run I noticed that the acronis rescue boot iso does not boot up. It is needed to play backups back into the vm so it is vital that this works. In an old environment running ProxMox 1.9 it boots up propperly. In 2.2 it starts the acronis boot loader then...

This is normal behaviour. Also with a HA setup you have at least a downtime when memory content and cpu state is transmitted. This might take some seconds depending mainly on ram size. If you want seamless migration you have to take a lot more action. You would need two machines running...
