bbgeek17 replied to the thread local-lvm issue adding node to cluster.@gtrovato , The short answer is "yes" - the fact that you are merging nodes into a single cluster that have different local-lvm definitions is what is causing the question marks. When you add a node to the cluster, there is a warning that any...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread VMs are not responding during backups.@PwrBank , you are correct. This is why Backup Fleecing Storage was created. Prior to it, a write to a non-backed up segment was blocked until that segment could be backed up. If the backup link/storage/cpu are inadequate - it creates bottleneck...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Partitioning VMID space.Since you are already maintaining an external map of category=lower-upper, I'd try to avoid frequent cluster changes. The easiest way is to add another field in your map for last used, or next free. Another option is to generate next ID on the...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Verify and repair a potentially corrupted bridge (vmbr0) on a single node..Hi @dsintayehu , The first step would be to accompany your report with actual saved and running configuration output from "good" and "bad" notes. I.e. output of: - cat /etc/network/interfaces - ip a - ip route - brctl show - ping x.x.xx Add to...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Proxmox VE - shared storage type.Hi @CS- , It is my understanding that it is still in tech-preview. I suspect you'd need to wait for at least 9.1 release. Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox - https://www.blockbridge.com/proxmox

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Suggestions for low cost HA production setup in small company.One can certainly buy a non-redundant DiskStation on Amazon; however, I’m not sure why that would be the starting point for a business-grade SAN solution. A highly available SAN should be considered the bare minimum in this context. Op...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread 2 Host Cluster with SAN.Hello @MikaSup , welcome to the forum. We'd need to know more about your exact VM and rules configuration. As well as how you reboot the node. In general, this is a good source for understanding the behavior ...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Need to backup broken Proxmox without ethernet.You will likely need to rename the volume group of the old disk so that there is no conflict, then you'd add a new storage pool that points to the renamed VG. You'd then restore you VM configs , then rescan for disks "qm disk rescan". The disks...
-
bbgeek17 replied to the thread Need to backup broken Proxmox without ethernet.The backup tries to start the VM in suspended state so that the disks can be properly activated. Given your installation is already borked, you can remove the network card from your VM config to bypass this error, if you wanted to get the last...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Custom Cloud Init Snippet - Not working.You can program the cloudinit file to write and execute a script that would detect the interface name and create correct network file in place, instead of relying on CI for that part of the config. You can create/modify your template to not...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Need to backup broken Proxmox without ethernet.If you are already planning to use a different installation disk, what stops you from connecting the disk that contains the VM data now as secondary, and then copying/importing it? How to do that depends on your storage configuration. It may be...
