The post-stop won't show up in the task log (if that is what you mean), as it will be run after that task has finished by the daemon cleaning up after a VM has shut down. Writing to a file would be one way to check if the post-stop ran.
If there...
Besides the Ballooning Device being enabled, is the BalloonService running in the Windows VM?
Does it go down after a bit of waiting? In the screenshot, the VM has an uptime of 36 seconds... chances are that the VM hasn't fully booted yet and...
This looks like something went wrong with the installation medium.
Verify that the ISO you downloaded is correct, and that it is copied correctly to the install medium: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#installation_prepare_media
You mean booting the OS itself from a multipathed LUN? It might be technically possible to do so, especially when converting a Debian installation to Proxmox VE, but this is not a scenario we test for or have in mind with the Proxmox installer.
You basically saved your data one time encrypted and one time unencrypted, thus in the end saving everything two times. As soon as every unencrypted backup is getting pruned or manually removed you should notice that the storage space occupied...
Migrated my old 2 nodes vmware essential plus vm's (20 vm) to new 3 nodes proxmox 9 + ceph.
Obviously, I had to do it on a day when I could shut down the VMs, but apart from that, everything worked perfectly.
Thank you, thank you, thank you ...
? If you use the same encryption key you will get good dedup. For example, in a Proxmox VE cluster, you will use one encryption key per storage config.
So if you have a second Proxmox VE cluster that is using the same PBS and datastore (ideally...
On PBS you have it for file-based backups (host, CT).
On PVE you have that as well, if the backup storage is a PBS. Then you can do that even for VM backups (given that the FS is supported)
the patch has just been applied. a newer version is not yet released. But once you have a version newer than the mentioned ones, they will include the fix.
