All good points. It just seems odd to me that there doesn't seem to be a 'proper' way to remove a known failing drive under these circumstances - a 'force' option that would just zero-fill any unreadable blocks when copying, for example. Unfortunately as much as I want redundant storage, it's...

Thanks for the suggestion! The man page for zpool-remove does indeed say that I/O errors will cause the removal to stop, and there doesn't seem to be a way to force it. Given that the pool is not redundant, I have no idea what effect physically removing the drive would have, but I'm sure it...

Hi, I've recently encountered a failing drive in a ZFS pool. The pool is striped, with no redundancy. Currently, the only affected files appear to be ones that can be easily be replaced, and I'm hoping to keep it that way to avoid having to take the whole server offline to restore from backups...

I created a datastore called 'restore', many months ago, purely for the purpose of a trial restoration from tape. All went well, and after I'd finished testing, I deleted all backups from that datastore, and it shows as empty in the GUI. The output from the latest GC is...

Sorry, I messed up the syntax in my original post there! Reading that thread, it looks like the best solution at the moment is to just add a unique port as an argument in the QEMU config files. Which, to be fair, might be a more sensible way to go about things anyway...

Hi, I used to use, for example, vnc change 0.0.0.0:100 change vnc 0.0.0.0:100 in the monitor console to change VNC port. Since upgrading to 7.0, I get Expected ‘password’ after ‘vnc’. I tried the longer form described in https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/VNC_Client_Access, but couldn’t get that to...

That sorted it, thanks! I hadn't realised there was an option in the GUI.

I was migrating several VMs at once yesterday, and found that I was getting 'Invalid PVE ticket' every minute or so in the web interface. Research suggests that it was probably due to the network being saturated and causing latency issues with Corosync. Everything certainly seems fine now that...

Hi, I've only just started using PMG, so I hope this isn't a completely stupid question. I've just received the daily 'Proxmox Status Report', which contains the following stats: Incoming Mails: 722 Junk Mails: 686 Spam Mails: 9 When I look in 'Tracking Center', there are only around 40...
