bbgeek17 replied to the thread [January 2026] NVME over TCP (over Fabric?) Support in Proxmox 9?.It's probably a matter of priority. Of course it would be nice to have everything, however the team likely balances between: availability, stability, net new functionality, and pretty GUI for things that already work. Blockbridge : Ultra low... -
bbgeek17 replied to the thread Configuring Multipath NFS/iSCSI/TCP over NVME for Shared Storage?.Hi @SInisterPisces , Configuring iSCSI multipath is generally straightforward and relatively simple. It is well documented in many online resources, including the following article...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread [January 2026] NVME over TCP (over Fabric?) Support in Proxmox 9?.Hi @SInisterPisces , From an operating system perspective, an NVMe/TCP-connected disk and an iSCSI disk both present themselves as raw block devices. When you use the native OS tools to manage them (iscsiadm for iSCSI and nvme for NVMe/TCP)...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread PSA: PVE 9.X iSCSI/iscsiadm upgrade incompatibility.A bit of good news to kick off the new year: our pull request addressing the iSCSI DB consistency/compatibility issue has been accepted by the Open-iSCSI maintainers. This means the fix will be included upstream and should make its way into a...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread [SOLVED] External Storage Server for 2 Node Cluster.Hi @LG-ITI , welcome to the forum. First, let’s make sure we are aligned on what “ZFS-over-iSCSI” means: This approach allows you to programmatically expose virtual disks as iSCSI LUNs. These virtual disks are backed by ZFS. The consumers of...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Proxmox VE 7.3: Resize disk of running instances with disks in iSCSI storage.Hi All, could any of the participants who are sharing their experience here post: - VM config pre-resize - storage.cfg - Storage config (lsscsi, lsblk, pvs, vgs, lvs, multipath -ll ) pre-resize - Resize steps with outputs - Storage config...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Migration From Vmware using the new migration tool..Hi @admin20, welcome to the forum. You can, but you don't strictly need to. The ESX Migration tool uses ESXi API to extract data from ESXi and then transfer it to the PVE. That obviously means that you need somewhere to put that data in PVE. It...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Pool names restrictions different in 9.If we go back to Storage Pools, which is not Ops question as we know now, one would have to edit/modify every VM configuration file to point to appropriate Pool/Volume. I think the Resource Pool rename is simpler, one would only need to edit...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread [SOLVED] The cluster host displays a different storage capacity than the actual capacity..Hi @micahel jiang , You are confused about storage location, shared properties and reporting. What you have : - 11TB disk mounted to host1, this disk is not shared even if it is external. - Proxmox storage pool of type DIRECTORY that points to...
-
bbgeek17 replied to the thread Pool names restrictions different in 9.Makes sense, you did not specify the type of pool (resource vs storage vs) and I made an assumption of storage as they have similar restriction. My apologies. I don't have sufficient experience with Resource pools. Generally, until a PVE team...
-
bbgeek17 replied to the thread Pool names restrictions different in 9.The easiest thing to do is to install Virtual PVE and test out your exact scenario : digit-named-pool with VM which has disks on it. Start with 8, upgrade to 9. A quick test on PVE9 shows that the storage subsystem will skip newly incompatible...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread [SOLVED] Cannot connect to GUI.Hi @Adasvejas , welcome to the forum. Start by reducing your DHCP range so that the PVE IP is not within it. That usually helps with access to non-standard ports. you should use the same one that you have on your windows workstation. You can...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread PVE nodes communicating with mounted storage (truenas) over cluster network NIC and not primary NIC.You should not have all devices on the same subnet. Your cluster network should be on a different subnet. Note that none of this is PVE specific, but rather basic Linux Networking. Cheers PS I initially misread and thought you have more than 2...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread PVE nodes communicating with mounted storage (truenas) over cluster network NIC and not primary NIC.What networks/subnets are being used here? Can you expand on this? Are all your connections on the same subnet? What does /etc/pve/storage.cfg say? What about "ip a" from PVE? IPs of the TrueNAS? Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread authentication failure.Hi @Jacx , welcome to the forum. Looks like you exposed your PVE to the Internet and as such you are subject to immediate automated attacks. I would highly recommend rethinking your deployment, or, at the very least, implementing very strict...
