bbgeek17 replied to the thread Help Needed: Shared iSCSI Storage for PVE Cluster (Multi-node Access).It's been a year since Op's last post and presence, but based on the incident description (Dell/EMC backing ESXi) - it was likely iSCSI with VMFS.

bbgeek17 posted the thread [TUTORIAL] PVE arm64 on ASUS GX10 (GB10): hard reset every ~20 minutes, fix is loading sbsa_gwdt in Proxmox VE: Installation and configuration.Here’s another problem we hit bringing PVE arm64 up on the GX10. The first was the black screen after initrd (thread here). Posting this one since the symptom is a show stopper. Hardware ASUS Ascent GX10 NVIDIA GB10, 20 cores, 3.9 GHz 128 GB...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread From LVM storage screen, please allow binding LVM volume to VM.I would always recommend to stay within the bumpers of the system. Especially when an easy to use procedure is available. IMHO this is such a rare situation that complicating UI with handling this case is counterproductive. That said - feel free...

bbgeek17 posted the thread [TUTORIAL] PVE 9.2 arm64 on ASUS GX10 (GB10): black screen after initrd, fix is console=tty0 in Proxmox VE: Installation and configuration.If you install Proxmox VE 9.2 arm64 on an ASUS GX10 or a DGX Spark, the first boot will show a black screen, and you will think it hung. It did not. Here is why, and the fix. For context, we bought some GX10 systems (NVIDIA GB10, same board as...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Official status of support for multiple backup solutions.Support can be more than one thing. It is having someone pickup the phone, ensuring that the solutions you sell are tested and stable, and much more. The support can quickly become a diminishing value if a customer calls asking for assistance...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Official status of support for multiple backup solutions.Whether it works and whether it is supported are two different things. Supported means it is being tested. Considering that PBS uses bitmap to track changes between backups of the running VM, and that this is an interface provided by QEMU, it is...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Official status of support for multiple backup solutions.I think it's safe to say there is no official support for 3rd party products. The qualification matrix would be very complex, these are competing products, why would any vendor undertake this endeavor? Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread DSLicSrv anyone move this to Proxmox Successfully? Specifically from Nutanix.I do not condone trying to circumvent vendor's protection put in place to prevent what you are trying to do. That said, I'd be somewhat surprised if MAC was the only thing that they go by. Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread DSLicSrv anyone move this to Proxmox Successfully? Specifically from Nutanix.There are a number of different threads to pull here. Nutanix had the benefit of original physical host, and as you can see from the config, it is also obfuscating that the OS is now virtualized. The MAC address may have been the last piece for...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Quick HOWTO on setting up iSCSI Multipath.Microsoft is still catching up with NVMe/TCP, and we've encountered PSODs on ESXi in the past related to NVMe/TCP connections. iSCSI is extremely mature and broadly supported. As mentioned, it may make sense in more scenarios than initially...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread DSLicSrv anyone move this to Proxmox Successfully? Specifically from Nutanix.I am not a Nutanix expert, and I am aware that is more blackbox type of a solution. That said, it is running QEMU/KVM, similar to PVE. There could be a way to get more data on how the VM is started via CLI. There has to be a way to backup/export...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread May I ask if PVE supports the following operating systems.Virtual machine support is better classified first by CPU architecture rather than by the guest OS itself. At this point, the relevant architectures are x86 and ARM. The next question is whether the guest OS supports the virtual hardware...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Shared NFS storage showing status: unknown on 2nd pve host..Hi @kawano-y , I think OP may have moved on as this thread is from July 2025. But it is always nice to know what the resolution was! Cheers Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox - https://www.blockbridge.com/proxmox

bbgeek17 replied to the thread DSLicSrv anyone move this to Proxmox Successfully? Specifically from Nutanix.Admiteddly, I have not installed/used this service. That said, can you export VM configuration in huma-readable format from Nutanix? It may be useful to compare that to the PVE VM config. So if you can include both - perhaps someone can spot...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Data Domain over NFS and Access TIme Issues.I don't think there is a way to do this, but Dell/EMC/DD is the best source to ask this question. The check was added as a bumper against accidentally GC what is being in use. You can disable it but then you risk running into the original issue...

Like.
Well, life can be so simple sometimes. Can confirm my instance ID is in fact used, based on `/run/cloud-init/.instance-id`. I'll add to the tracker that this behaviour is not really intuitive. Thanks again!
