FYI Installed PMG 8 and restored the backup, worked perfectly.

Hi Stoiko, Thanks for your response. I will try it out and post the results here. The PMGs are in a virtual environment, so I can easily shut and unshut when needed.

Hi All, Finally I am planning to upgrade from PMG 7 to 8. I read the https://pmg.proxmox.com/wiki/index.php/Upgrade_from_7_to_8 and saw that in a single node environment it is possible to install PMG 8 and restore the config from the existing PMG 7 node. My question is, in my setup, I have 3...

Hi, Thank you, after my last post I searched and found out about the 'Other' OS type, I used that and it worked!! I have some other freebsd machines running. I will need to go through all of them. Thanks again for your time!

Thanks, but which one should I be using? As I mentioned earlier, this stopped working once I upgraded to 7.3. Same config is working on 7.2.

Hi dcsapak, Thanks for your reply. Below is the config: boot: order=sata0;net0 cores: 2 ide2: none,media=cdrom memory: 2048 meta: creation-qemu=6.2.0,ctime=1668575345 name: XXXX net0: e1000=A2:2A:36:D9:A2:35,bridge=vmbr0,firewall=1,tag=111 net1...

Hi All, I am in the process of migrating our servers to 7.3. I have VM that is based on FreeBSD running an software application that requires an external USB disk key to load. Using 7.2, I have no issues with attaching the USB device in Hardware, but now on the upgraded (7.3) PVE, same...

Hi, sorry I just saw this, let me know if you still haven't found a solution, also mention what methods you have already tried/where you are stuck at

Managed to fix the bootloader of the problematic VM, but I hope this issue is rectified soon as we have 100s of VMs running.

we have more than 100 VMs running on Proxmox, this is the first time we've encountered such an issue. But this is alarming because we have not kept separate backups of these VMs other than the Proxmox backup system. I dont understand why the backups are failing to restore properly.

no, the hd of the VM that I'm having issues with had the discard option disabled. were you able to resolve your issue using testdisk?

+1, I'm still trying to recover my centos guest system, no luck so far :(

Hi @CodeNinja , I ran into the same issue however only one VM is giving me this problem, I am trying to recover it with TestDisk as per your article in https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/683756/vm-not-a-bootable-disk-after-upgrade-from-promox-6-x-to-7-x, but I've had no luck so far...

I have backups running on PBS, however restoring them was of no use either. We're running over 150 VMs in the proxmox cloud, and using PBS for backups, this has become a real concern now as we do not have any other backups running. I wonder what proxmox is doing with regards to this, the least...

I am experiencing the same issue with one of my VMs. Tried TestDisk, but no luck with it. Going to try out gpart. @Daniel S. did you manage to recover your VM? I see this bug https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2874, but not fix just yet.
