    [TUTORIAL] Proxmox @ Hetzner, using a single public IPv4 address (+IPv6/64) while all traffic, including host goes through virtualized Firewall (ex. Pfsense)

    I'm a bit short on time and I was hesitant to share this as recently Hetzner started sending out MAC abuse messages which took me a long time to resolve as it was both a Proxmox issue, which was fixed with PVE 7, and also an issue with this configuration which I finally resolved. I have been...

    [SOLVED] Error restoring container Error: error extracting archive - error at entry "blk": failed to create device node: Operation not permitted (os error 1)

    Ok, it seems to have to do with restoring a privileged container as an unprivileged container using PBS. Is this not a supported operation? This is generally an unsupported operation with with container backups apparently as I found from some other threads. Solved. Tried searching for this...

    BUG? Virtual CD/DVD ROM doesn't appear in Windows 10 (v. 20H2) unless enabled in boot order for VM

    PVE 6.3-3 Seems to be a small bug, maybe known bug but I couldn't find anything with search. UEFI Windows 10 machine, once booted into the VM no virtual CD/DVD rom appears unless I add it to the boot order in the VM options. It doesnt need to be booted first, just needs to be checked to be one...

    Not 100% sure yet, getting semi-hard locks on Hetzner servers since Kernel vmlinuz-5.4.44-2-pve & vmlinuz-5.4.55-1-pve

    Not 100% sure is a kernel problem yet. But the lockups are fairly regular, 4-6 hours it seems. I have reverted to an older kernel. Linux pm1 5.3.18-3-pve #1 SMP PVE 5.3.18-3 (Tue, 17 Mar 2020 16:33:19 +0100) x86_64 GNU/Linux In the meantime to see if it helps as it is what I was running before...

    Storage Replication - Starts fast and then slows to a crawl, second dataset slow from start. Using another way to send snapshots goes full speed.

    Update: Believe this has to do with Wireguard VPN, possibly an MTU issue but the high speed going down to a trickle is very odd. If anyone has any insight would appreciate it. Kinda new to Proxmox built in replication but I am very familiar with zfs send / recv Testing out simple storage...

    [SOLVED] Cloned my PBS, How do I generate a new fingerprint for the second server?

    Cloned my Proxmox Backup Server, How do I generate a new fingerprint/certs for the second server? Or more precisely, what is the correct procedure in this case? It currently has exactly the same fingerprint as the primary one.

    So.. who wants to hear a really really bad idea that I have currently implemented. :P

    2 x Proxmox Physical Machines (Clustered, no HA,1 public ip each, vm firewall owning the public ip) They are not in the same physical location They each have one NIC They are routed via public network to each other. (They have private nat'd ips and vpns to each other) I have them talking...

    [SOLVED] Bug? PBS backup fails with INFO: Error: error at "/INFECTED_FILES/.cache_ux0sc4.php": file with negative mtime

    PBS Backup of LXC container fails when encountering negative mtime files. This was a complete virtual server backup, not a file based client backup. I can't remember if this file has a negative mtime due to the virus/hack itself, or the quarantine method itself. Either way backup should not...

    [SOLVED] Strange Backup Behavior, Total Bytes Written 100 X actual data size, backup slow due to this...

    I have an LXC container that takes an extremely long time to backup, and mostly because the backup process thinks it is backing up data that isnt there! This container was converted to LXC from a VM image NCDU tells me the entirety of the disk contents is about 22 gigabytes. du -hs says 23G...

    [SOLVED] Proxmox + Windows Server 2008 R2 + Virtio Network = Can't get DHCP IP address

    Hi, I have already figured out the fix for this but posting it to help anyone else. In my network all my VM machines were getting DHCP properly except this machine Windows Server 2008 R2 with virtio network. I installed an Intel virtual adapter and suddenly DHCP was working. Virtio Network...

    Backup Stop / Snapshot Hybridification Question

    Does / can Proxmox on a suitable file system (ex. ZFS), when using the Stop method of backup, have the ability to STOP the vm, snapshot the disks, start the vm, and then backup the snapshot? If Proxmox doesn't, could it? Would there be any reasons against this? Reasons for - 100% data...

    fstrim / discard to indicate released blocks to underlying zfs sparse zdev?

    I'm currently trying to determine if using the VIRTIO-SCSI adapter which can pass discard / fstrim commands to the underlying zdev storage is ensuring that unused blocks are not referenced during backups. I have successfully used in guest disk zeroing to reduce the size of the sparse file, but...
