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...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Manually set Cloud-init `instance_id` doesn't work.The man page does call it it out: qm cloudinit dump <vmid> <type> Get automatically generated cloudinit config. <vmid>: <integer> (100 - 999999999) The (unique) ID of the VM. <type>: <meta | network |...

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! -
bbgeek17 replied to the thread Recommendation for software-defined storage for Proxmox on OVH (with Veeam snapshot integration).Hi @tuttle333 , welcome to the forum. Veeam does not perform storage-integrated snapshots with any type of storage when combined with PVE. The functionality you are thinking of is VMware specific. Cheers Blockbridge : Ultra low latency...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Manually set Cloud-init `instance_id` doesn't work.The dump option only has a view into internal PVE CI, it does not reflect custom configuration. Booting your VM is the best way to check whether the ID was applied, and if it was not - check ci log inside the VM. Cheers, Blockbridge : Ultra low...

bbgeek17 reacted to huganega's post in the thread Proxmox VE 9.2 – sporadic iSCSI NOP timeouts / DID_TRANSPORT_DISRUPTED with Dell PowerVault ME5 and Intel E810 with Like.
Hi, yes, I have now verified the path mapping again, and the sporadic NOP timeouts always affect the same iSCSI/SCSI path. The connection number changed over time because the iSCSI sessions were recreated (connection2:0, later connection4:0...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Proxmox VE 9.2 – sporadic iSCSI NOP timeouts / DID_TRANSPORT_DISRUPTED with Dell PowerVault ME5 and Intel E810.Hi @huganega , Are you sure that you looked at the correct network interface? The one used by iSCSI? If you've confirmed that there are no network layer errors, then issue is likely in the higher layer of the stack. A rolling network trace would...

I'll drop this here: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Multipath We are currently also working on getting iSCSI, LUN and multipathing integrated into the Proxmox VE tools and web UI. So keep an eye out for it in future release notes.

bbgeek17 replied to the thread Quick Question About Multipath.The best place for recommendation on multipath file is your vendor's documentation. I think this may be what they want, but I'd check with them first: devices { device { vendor "Lenovo" product "DS4200"...
