    Clarification request – SAN FC shared storage, Proxmox snapshots and Veeam backup compatibility

    Hi @katti, You do not need storage snapshots for Veeam backup of any type of storage pool in PVE. 1 Yes, you can have snapshots with FC SAN by using new tech-preview feature: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/proxmox-ve-9-lvm-snapshot-feature-still-tech-preview.175210/ 2 Using QCOW on any file...

    Possible bug with qemu-img zeroinit and LVM

    TBH, layering QCOW on a newly added LVM extent without manually zeroing it first seems like a recipe for trouble. This approach is unpopular because it slows provisioning, but it is the safer option. When QCOW is placed on a filesystem, zeroing is implicitly handled by the filesystem through...

    Updated PVE 8to9, have warning: packages configured multiple times

    Hi @medichugh, Best way is to examine the specified files and remove one of the duplicate references, so only single reference remains. Cheers Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox - https://www.blockbridge.com/proxmox

    ISCSI connection causing error "pbs: error fetching datastores - 500 Can't connect to ipaddress:8007 (Connection refused) (500)"

    Hi @harunk , welcome to the forum. These are Linux kernel–level messages; they are not PBS or PVE specific. They indicate a network-layer issue in the communication path between the Debian OS and your NAS. I would start by checking MTU, running long duration pings, and testing with iperf (or a...

    Best (most performant) way of sharing NAS storage to Windows 11 VM

    Under normal circumstances, given your numbers, it is likely that you would not see perceivable difference. You may even notice lower performance, as you would need to add another layer (qcow or raw file). There is no scientific evidence that direct Windows 11 iSCSI connection would function...
