Aalexskysilk replied to the thread stupid question - I accidentally deleted my /var directory. How bad is that?.Not screwed at all, but you will have downtime. The way forward depends on whether the payload (virtual disks) are located on the same disk as your system or not. IF the virtual disks are on a seperate filesystem you're home free- just reinstall...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread [TUTORIAL] Creating 2 node Proxmox VE cluster with StorMagic software defined storage.I think he means license per storage bearing node, not pve cluster node.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Ceph in 2026 HDD.thats aggregate- not to a single initiator. important distinction. and you dont fix latency with any OSD count.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Ceph in 2026 HDD.ceph and zfs serve different purposes. ceph is a cluster store. zfs is host attached. while you can make a zfs filer act as cluster storage that still leave it as a SPOF in a HA environment. If you actually want to shortcut the lab you might want...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Ceph in 2026 HDD.Ask a subjective question, get subjective answers. its either terrible if you're looking for 500kIOPS, or great if you're looking for 100IOPs.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Ceph in 2026 HDD.I think you're asking the wrong question. what is the workload in vm count and minimum required iops/vm? how much capacity do you need? ceph works fine with hard drives. its just slow.

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox stuck after upgrade from 8.4.19 to 9.x.ok, then that forces me to ground 0. Without resorting to screencaps, what is the actual issue? the screencap in OP does not lend itself to any actual issue; the screencaps you had showing various "red" items dont necessarily correlate to...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread [Community project] Proximo — an open-source, least-privilege MCP/API layer for managing PVE with an AI agent (feedback wanted).Thats quite an elitist perspective. the code is well documented and published; if it doesnt serve YOUR purposes or YOUR quality requirements, so be it, but in the spirit of open source if the project overlaps with something you value shitting on...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread [Community project] Proximo — an open-source, least-privilege MCP/API layer for managing PVE with an AI agent (feedback wanted).thank you! that answers the question perfectly. While it wouldnt occur to me to do this (clearly,) wouldnt this be a prime candidate for *claw? dont get me wrong, having actual working guardrails would be great, just trying to wrap my head around...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox stuck after upgrade from 8.4.19 to 9.x.I've run into this issue multiple times in the past. IF you have linux kernel 6.1 in your available kernels to boot, you can live with it and just pin that kernel. Going forward, you should consider upgrading your motherboard to something from...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Ceph with mixed hardware and disks.It depends on your performance expectations, but ceph is quite capable to deal with this kind of mixed hardware- as long as you make sure that you have EQUIVALENT CAPACITY PER OSD TYPE on each osd server. In your case, assuming you want all 6...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Subscription costs (rant).Some of the bigger names in the European list provide follow the sun support and can be engaged adhoc with 4 hour minimum charges. Not really familiar with any US based vendors but they probably exist; you'll need to reach out to a bunch of them...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread [Community project] Proximo — an open-source, least-privilege MCP/API layer for managing PVE with an AI agent (feedback wanted).Lets ignore safety for the moment (thats a constraint, not the use case.) I'm just having a hard time imagining how would one use this.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread [Community project] Proximo — an open-source, least-privilege MCP/API layer for managing PVE with an AI agent (feedback wanted).I read the thread, and I guess I'm stumped on a fundamental point: What does this tool actually DO? your project description simply states: Two backends behind one tool surface: BackendMechanismFor ManagementProxmox REST API + scoped...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Problem with zfs and setfattr.Makes sense. I think that leaves you with these options: - zfs set xattr=on - zvol with originating filesystem - or drop xattr at the rsync level.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Problem with zfs and setfattr.Not likely. the error is from the destination file system, not the source. While it does sound like an interesting problem, what is the use case for this? tar.zstd will take the backup, compress it regardless of destination capabilities, and...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Seeking advice on best practices.the theoretical maximum 4k frames on a 10gb interface is 300938@1500mtu, 302294@9k. just sayin. in practice you're going to be limited more by the storage than by the network anyway, but that just comes back to the initial point about...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Seeking advice on best practices.You should also be aware that the vsphere portfolio doesnt overlap completely with PVE. I would begin by mapping out what your guests do, and what services do you depend on; do you use dswitches, vrops, storage plugins, nsx, etc. 1. Storage-...
