virtual disk

Hello! I'm currently running Proxmox 8.1 and originally had a Ubuntu Server VM set up for months, which I've loaded data on my hard drive in path /mnt/WD14-1 through two separate virtual disks (/dev/sdb1 mounted to /mnt/WD14-1/sdb1/, /dev/sdb2 mounted to /mnt/WD14-1/sdb2/). I just created a few...

Is there a way to create a snapshot of a VM with a TPM State disk. I see that the only available disk type is 'raw', qcow2 is not available. However I would very like to be able to make snapshots of my servers, VMs, etc. Does anyone have suggestions or workarounds, simply removing the TPM...

I have a PVE 8 running. One of the VM's is my 'daily driver'. A Nvidia dGPU is passed trough to that VM, along with USB hosts, and I'm running a dual monitor setup and the needed USB devices. Runs Win11. Works great for many months now. However, I'm looking to experiment with fedora as my...

Hello from France, I'm asking for some guidance/better explanations about something I'm trying to do with some Virtual Machines under Proxmox VE. I'm using IaC tools (Terraform / Terragrunt). My idea is to create a virtual disk statically and attach it to a virtual machine I would build again...

Hello, I had a problem with my managed VPS provider, the data was lost and I am not responsible. It only sent me a disk image of the virtual machine in .qcow2 format and I have no idea how to use it to recover a cpanel account that I had there (1 website). Could I use promox to restore this VM...

I recently ran into some odd issues with clustering. I migrated over a disk PRIOR to actually making the backend storage available to the new node. This caused some wonky things to happen including some disks being erased from their original location. I had disks in the original storage...

Hello, I got 3 Drives, each 279GiB installed as a raidz1. So the usable drive space should be ~558GiB (2x278GiB), but I am only able to use around 393 GiB. If I look at Storage -> My Storage -> Summary, then I can see that I am using almost 100% of the storage space, but there it says 536...

Hi, I am trying to import vms from old pve installation with little success. Can anybody help with please? root@vhost3:~# pveversion -v proxmox-ve: 6.2-1 (running kernel: 5.4.34-1-pve) pve-manager: 6.2-4 (running version: 6.2-4/9824574a) pve-kernel-5.4: 6.2-1 pve-kernel-helper: 6.2-1...

I create a zfs raidz1 with 3 x 4T disks and it shows that I have 7.04TiB available spaces. But when I try to add a new 6TiB(6144GiB) disk to a vm, it failed because of no space. How could that happen. That's a new raid I just created. When I lower the disk size to 5000GiB, it created...

Hi, i can't find the Folder where my vm storages are installed. I could find all my Containers in the /rpool/data folder but no vm is there. I want to import a .raw image into one vm that i've already created. I hope somebody can help me. :)

I have found 3 ways to get a ZFS pool to a Proxmox VM (FreeNAS). I was wondering which is the best? ZFS over SCSI Could I import my existing ZFS pool or do I have to create a new one? Would I have to use this? https://github.com/TheGrandWazoo/freenas-proxmox Virtual Disk...

So my Unifi VM crashed, what steps do I need to take to save the day?

Hello! I have migrated / copied over a virtual disk (qcow2) created with Virsh. This disk has 2 partitions and uses UEFI. When I start a VM in Proxmox using this virtual disk, the SeaBIOS is loaded and fails to boot UEFI. How can I fix this? THX

Hello! After creating a pool + storage via WebUI I have created a container. The virtual disk of this container is defined as a block device image in Ceph: root@ld4257:~# rbd ls pve vm-100-disk-1 However when I check content of the available storages pve_ct pve_vm I can see this image...

Hello, I would like to backup my VMs onto local-lvm because my local disk is very small compared to the lvm disk (4TB versus 128GB). I know this not immediately possible because lvm is not a file system on its own, so I think I need to create a virtual disk and mount it to the host / dom0. I do...

I have a nice running vm to which I have added some extra disks (virtual ones) I can see them in the gui and I see them all listed under /dev/disk/by-id, when i log in on the vm. However, I cannot see them under /dev/disk/by-uuid or anywhere else. If they do not have uuids will the system...

Hello Evrybody , I'm new with proxmox but i really liked it , but now i have a little problem : snapshots are disabled (can't even click it) for some VMs (who are located in a virtual disk ab1 that i made using vgcreate so he's not in the pve disk) but in the machines on the pve disk can be...
