Hi all! my proxmox environment is consuming near to 100% disk space. I figured out my CTs only consume around 50% of storage. I found a folder called "/vz/vzdump_tmp_dir" which is configured in /etc/vzdump.conf as tmpdir. Currently, no backups are running. In the past, a couple of backups...

Hello Everyone, This could be TL;DR I use Proxmox from the very beginning and I use ZFS for ages back when I had to compile it by myself and official PVE did not support using ZFS. I use smaller clusters (2 - 6 nodes, but a cluster is a cluster in case of 3+ nodes, so, if you see one, you saw...

We recently completed the upgrade to Proxmox 7. The issue exists on two different kernels pveversion: pve-manager/7.2-7/d0dd0e85 (running kernel: 5.15.39-1-pve) and pve-manager/7.2-7/d0dd0e85 (running kernel: 5.15.35-2-pve) Since the upgrade Io wait has increased dramatically during vzdump...

Dear fellows, this ist my very first Proxmox problem. I upgraded from PVE 6.4 to 7.1 which was all milk and honey and ran fine without any trouble. But since the upgrade, I cannot backup a specific LXC container in suspend mode, only stop mode works. The error shown is as follows: What really...

I wanted to backup some VMs but exclude the /var/www/ directory, as it is saved via other method and quite large. With VZDump the parameter --exclude-path is only supported within containers, but are there any alternatives or similar ways for VMs? Thanks in advance!

We have a small PVE cluster that ran PVE 6.4, and when we upgraded them to PVE 7.0, our backup jobs for VMs failed (but not CTs). We have collected the following diagnoses. The majority of our compute servers are HPE ProLiant DL388 Gen10, with Intel X710-DA2 SFP+ NIC (HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port...

I used a 6.3 proxmox test host on my desk to migrate some VMware VMs into Proxmox. I got them booting and running on my test host. I did a vzdump to export them, then sneakernet to get them into their target proxmox clusters. The VMs I imported into a Proxmox 6.4 cluster worked fine. The VMs...

Hi I’ve got 3 VMs and 2 containers running. I normally do backups onto a Synology NFS share. Both containers as well as one VM give me error 5 (below) when trying to back them up onto the NFS share. It can’t be a permission issue since two VMs work fine. It’s probably also not related to the...

Hey guys, I'm in a bit of a pickle. I'll start by going over my setup: - Storage server running TrueNas with 10Gb networking - ZFS pools - One pool with 12x 2TB drives in raidz2 (storage B) - Another pool with 3x 400GB ssds in stripe (storage A) - Single hypervisor - Boot disk is 400GB NVMe...

Hello, I found a few days ago that most of my backups on some Proxmox hosts are gone. It seems to be a bug on some of my Proxmox Hosts, but not all of them. vzdump is removing all backups when a specific VMID gets backed up. Here is the backup log of one host where ID 161 is bugged: vzdump...

Hello guys, I have some custom vzdump.cron commands to run my VM backups. After I had reinstalled my Proxmox server some days ago and copied the following commands into /etc/pve/vzdump.cron, my scheduled backup do not run anymore. When I create the backups via the web interface, the backups...
