bbgeek17 replied to the thread Issue with attached ISO, cannot migrate VM to second host.This situation seems to me as a candidate for improvement. An ISO reference in snapshot should not prevent HA/manual migration, or require snapshot deletion. When/if the system rolls back to that snapshot - there is no guarantee that ISO is... -

Like.
Oh, I see. Thank you. With that strict list in mind, you're right. This list would however apply to any storage vendor as the only viable PVE option is mpath+lvm in such a setup, yet it would still work without a problem as you already said. -

And it also prevents PVE from connecting to the remove PBS every 10 seconds (which is something people also complain about).

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Status: Unknown for all VMs and Drives.Hi @zahidislam , You can start by running the commands that were recommended by @UdoB in #2. Also "pvesm status". Report their output (using text enclosed with CODE tags). Also, check your system log: journalctl -n 100 ; journalctl -f...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread strange issues with snapshot backups.Yes, they could. However, if the link to this offsite PBS is not great, they could run into various other edge conditions. For example: active changes with slow link may mean a requirement for fleecing storage to be close to 100% of the primary...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread [TUTORIAL] Understanding QCOW2 Risks with QEMU cache=none in Proxmox.Hi @Kurgan, Based on a quick review, LVM-thin appears to offer better durability characteristics than QCOW2 for a few reasons: LVM-thin stores its metadata in a B-tree and applies updates transactionaly (though not via a traditional journal)...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Promox Design / Dell Powerstore / Pure Storage.Hi @PoschMox93 , welcome to the forum. At a high level it appears that this might work with PVE. Keep in mind that for shared storage PVE does not employ either SCSI3 reservations or any of the items listed here...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread strange issues with snapshot backups.A "snapshot backup" creates a dirty bitmap at QEMU level (not storage) of the blocks that are being changed during the backup. If the block is changed during the backup but prior to this block actually placed in backup media two things can...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread VM migration error / atomic file exist.Hi @Mihoo , welcome to the forum. You should examine the context of /etc/pve/node/[node-name] - they should not have duplicate ID configuration files. Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox -...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Recommendation for software-defined storage for Proxmox on OVH (with Veeam snapshot integration).Veeam's ability to utilize backend storage snapshot functionality to offload the backup workflow is limited to Vsphere. The Veeam PVE plugin integrates with PVE by hooking into primary QEMU process, somewhat similar to how PVE&PBS work (but not...
