I don't know your infrastructure limitations or business requirements to make any recommendations. Generally, it is always best to have more paths than less. Would 4 be better than 2 for you? I don't know.
I am not sure I follow. You need to...
Hi @daus2936 , your question was:
The title of the documentation page provided by @alexskysilk is:
Set up the multipath.conf file in E-Series - Linux (iSCSI)
It is very succinct and states:
No changes to /etc/multipath.conf are required.
It...
To summarize: you deployed a desktop version of Debian with X interfaces (and likely many other “workstation” tools), then installed PVE, and finally added Docker on the same host.
You are able to run curl -k https://192.168.8.2:8006 directly...
When operating at a scale of 1,000 VMs, it may make sense to maintain your own inventory database. You could, for example, integrate ctime or another tag to track changes.
As others have pointed out, you’ll likely need some custom work to get...
Hi @unsichtbarre,
“Super slow” is a very subjective way to describe performance. A good first step is to establish a baseline with FIO.
Keep in mind that I/O over iSCSI passes through many layers: disk/volume configuration and CPU/memory on...
Hi @mariofehr , welcome to the forum.
It looks like a failed upgrade. There has been more than a few similar threads over the last couple of weeks.
Here is an example thread with a number of steps that may be helpful if not in resolving the...
Hi Spirit,
It'll be a little while before the team can revisit this (and I'm currently OoO). That said, increasing the default cache size likely introduces serious real-world risks. I believe it creates a denial-of-service vulnerability and...
Hello Everyone,
Here is a brief update from our team regarding this advisory. The recently reported issues with NVMe/TCP native multipathing have now been addressed. The relevant fixes are included upstream and are part of the Ubuntu kernel...
First, I would normally expect two paths per lun. You are showing 2 individual LUNs that the OS only sees once. So while its ok to have Multipath sitting there, I do not think you actually have multipath.
You already posted "multipath -ll" and it...
@fba is correct. For several OS generations now, official cloud images have disabled password authentication by default. SSH key authentication is the standard. Beyond that, custom cloud-init is extremely powerful and can be used to customize...
the originally attached VM config:
scsi0: local-lvm2:vm-121-disk-1,size=1T
The VM configuration you attached contains only one virtual disk/image - "scsi0". It is located on storage called "local-lvm2". You subsequently provided your storage...

When a snapshot is deleted, the system merges data from the previous QCOW image and LVM logical volume into the new QCOW image and logical volume. This merge process allocates additional storage in the new logical volume but does not...
Hi,
thanks for the article, I hope you enjoy my work ^_^
about performance, they are still performance improvement possible, mostly with qemu l2 cache size. Currently it's really depend of the qcow2 volume size, it's working up to around...
Hi Spirit,
Thank you for your hard work! I especially appreciate how cleanly the feature is integrated, with no excess knobs or tunables. Great job by the whole team!
We're aligned on the QEMU caching. Larger caches can help somewhat, but it's...
I presume this isn’t a VM running on the same PVE host?
From what you’ve described, you have two storage pools: iSCSI and LVM-Thin. One depends on the other, but PVE currently has no built-in way to declare that dependency. This creates a very...
Hi @caslanx , please note you must use the multipath device (mpath) and never the underlying sdX device.
In your case it seems to be str01_pool_a_sssd.
But, the device already contains VMFS structure and you do need to wipe the "mpath" device if...
The allocation of disks (LVs) is not done manually, PVE does that automatically.
However, it will likely produce the same error if you were to try to create a 100G VM disk via PVE GUI. Since we have no information about your current...
There are few times when using an older or common architecture is needed:
- moving between Intel and AMD (never guaranteed to be seamless)
- moving VM from newer Hypervisor CPU to Older. Absence of some flags/commands can cause OS crash
- using...
Hi @caslanx , welcome to the forum.
This is the primary source of your issues. There is no such thing as iSCSI SAS cable. iSCSI is a storage protocol designed to run over TCP/IP. SAS is a point-to-point serial protocol for direct-attached...
Keep in mind that the banner that shows "connect to this IP" at the console does not always reliably update. You should login via the console and confirm the IP "ip a".
Sounds like you moved the PVE between different tenants, so your network...
