That is very cool. Thank you again! Your script-foo be strong... I will analyse that script to learn stuff. Cheers. Andrzej NOTE TO SELF: https://github.com/yjajkiew/dynhost-ovh/blob/master/README.md <<< You used this to set your OVH dyn host. #!/usr/bin/env sh # Account configuration...

Heck yeah. So... Did you wrote that script? :) https://github.com/kneutron/ansitest/blob/master/proxmox/bkpcrit-proxmox.sh Run it as root right? What needs to be edited? It seems like I found those places but... I don't see anywhere to set the "Backup drive or folder"? # xxx TODO EDITME...

Ok I am back online. I wanted to thank everyone that replied in this thread. The fact that someone cared enough to reply was a help on its own. Kindest regards. Have a fantastic day. AndrzejL

Slowly but surely... Thanks for the qm rescan tip. Cheers. Andrzej

Will do. I am pretty upset about this whole ordeal but weirdly not even remotely as much as I thought I would be... Maybe because I know that I can set it all back up and I do not have to recreate all the VMs from scratch because I have the vm disks... Cheers. Andrzej

What I did is I grabbed a smaller but very usable 120G WD Green SSD, and put it into the Dell machine with my 2 x 2TB Crucial drives and 1 USB 3.0 6TB WD MyBook, I diskpart cleaned the WD Green, installed proxmox 8.2 on it, mounted my 2 x 2TB Crucial drives containing vm drives and isos and am...

No stress... Its not like its a company server. Just a private server. One positive thing - I got the machine replaced. From Dell Optiplex SFF 990 with i7 2600 to Dell Optiplex SFF 7010 with i7 3770. Fresh install. Regards. Andrzej

Words of wisdom. And yes... I was going to backup after I fixed that error mentioned in my first post... Oh the irony... ;) Thank you. Andrzej

It didn't and if the partition table was not broken then... it probably is now. As soon as I did what I did (wrote a weird looking recovery from testdisk I found this video https://youtu.be/VR5TP9E9wio It probably would help me recover but now my drive looks like this: Yeah I am a freaking...

BAD IDEA, LVM AND TESTDISK DON'T MIX WELL... Cheers. Andrzej I am reading that a partition table can be recovered with a use of a tool like testdisk. Tried installing it in ubuntu live but I don't see it in the repo. https://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Livecd GParted Live is supposed...

I wish it was that simple but unfortunately I cannot even chroot into it because of the lvm corruption. Thank you for your suggestion. I hope it becomes part of the solution once I recover the lvm. Hopefully... Anyone has a lvm uncorruptor or a time machine? Kindest regards. Andrzej

TRY WATCHING AND UNDERSTANDING AND FOLLOWING THIS VIDEO. https://youtu.be/VR5TP9E9wio MAYBE YOU WILL HAVE MORE LUCK THAN I DID. I DISCOVERED THIS VIDEO AFTER I REALLY MESSED UP MY SSD WITH TESTDISK. Hello beautiful people. I messed up. I noticed that my proxmox installation was throwing...

Hi :) The server is oldish, its been running for few years, but this was a very first time it actually utilised 100% of the cpu for any noticeable period of time. I don't like creating e-waste so until it does not die it will do. Now that the whole ordeal is over, the cpu usage is back to...

Sitrep. Server suddenly decided to howl to a moon in the middle of the night and then just as suddenly stopped on its own. Cat only knows what caused it. Kindest regards. AndrzejL
