DDerekG replied to the thread Pulse - a responsive monitoring application for Proxmox VE that displays real-time metrics across multiple nodes.Maybe you should try the app again. I have it running in a CT, utilising 3% of 2 cores while monitoring an 80 device/services homelab. I think it's a great app and the only thing I don't like is that it spams the system logs of all the monitored...

DDerekG replied to the thread Looking for Advice on New Setup.I'm sorry, my comment is not meant to offend, but I think you have spent way too much time chasing specs. You are supposed to decide what it is that you want from the Proxmox environment and then spec the system around your requirements. You...

DFlashing the newest BIOS version (1.11.0 -> 1.30.0) fixed the issue with the kernel 6.17.4-1.

DDerekG replied to the thread CPU change.You might try upgrading the Intel CPU micro code in Proxmox in case the they are running an older or different versions. This might help: https://community-scripts.github.io/ProxmoxVE/scripts?id=microcode&category=Proxmox+&+Virtualization

DDerekG replied to the thread Considering Proxmox use case...doubts..I've had the unit since early Sept, it's fully loaded with 11 drives and using the 10Gbe networking. Running Windows 11 VM and a TrueNAS server. The only times it's been down is when I'm messing around with the configuration, but even that...

DDerekG replied to the thread Issues after upgrading to 6.17.4-1-pve.I can't say that as I have no experience with those controllers and no idea what devices you have connected on each. I would try to disable the Rombar one device at a time. Then look into firmware updates, rolling back the kernel to the earlier...

DDerekG replied to the thread Considering Proxmox use case...doubts..I can say that the WTR MAX is almost the perfect Proxmox node, lots of power in every aspect needed in a Proxmox node. I wish I could afford a 3 unit cluster. And Aoostar, although being relatively new to international sales, are fairly good...

DDerekG replied to the thread (Ideas?) Create custom reports for PVE VMs, configuration etc..I'll second that. It would be great to have a list of the relevant changes (for passthrough etc.) in case of rebuild after host hardware failure. Every one of my Proxmox nodes have different changes made over time, and they are not really...

DDerekG reacted to Fuegas's post in the thread (Ideas?) Create custom reports for PVE VMs, configuration etc. with
Like.
Hey @bl1mp , thanks for the hints. I had a look at the pvereport utility, but it does not really macht the requirements (in a broader sense; helpful itself for sure). I also found some other reporting tools / scripts online, but all of them... -
DDerekG replied to the thread Issues after upgrading to 6.17.4-1-pve.What SATA controller / HBA are you using.? I had to disable the Rombar (and upgrade the firmware) for the my controller to boot TrueNAS after upgrade from kernel 6.8.14
-
DHi everyone! I just wanted to write a guide for those (like myself) trying out GPU passthrough with the HP ProDesk 600 G1 in 2025... I needed to enable VT-d using the "Replicated setup" method (previously mentioned here) in the UEFI/BIOS as the...

DDerekG replied to the thread Setting up remote access to the Gui - From outside the local network.One of the best / easiest options at the moment is the setup of a Tailscale network, you can run a tailscale node in an LXC and access you entire LAN for anywhere. No requirement to open holes in the firewall https://tailscale.com/

DDerekG replied to the thread old SATA drive to share media.OMV is a file server application. with some extra's bolted on. It does have the advanced power management for spinning down the drives, but as I say, I never use them.
-
DDerekG replied to the thread Using Turnkey Fileserver for storage share - major issues.Ah, sorry, I completely misunderstood the thread, I have a similar setup for none important data storage (even USB drives), OMV is still the best option I found after testing multiple LXC files servers.
-
DDerekG replied to the thread Disk Passthrough vs qm.In a VM the NVMe the drive shows as a PCI device (not a drive), once you find the correct PCI device (use the command lspci to list them) and then passthrough that device.
-
DDerekG replied to the thread old SATA drive to share media.I wouldn't worry about that too much, if the drive is shared (and other family members need access) then you want it to be always available. I know there is a way to tell OMV to spin down the drives, but I never use it myself. More important...
-
DDerekG replied to the thread old SATA drive to share media.It's definitely doable, I would suggest another VM with Open media Vault to be used for sharing the drive over the network. Having said that, shared storage tends to become more vital the more it's utilised, so even for starting out I would be...
-
DDerekG replied to the thread Using Turnkey Fileserver for storage share - major issues.That will work, but then you loose the redundant drives, one failure and your data is gone. I have 2x TrueNAS running, but when I just wanted to pass some USB drives through for basic storage, I found the OMV in a VM was the most solid solution...
-
DDerekG replied to the thread [SOLVED] kernel: landlock - Error on VM boot - assistance required.Issue resolved. As per the post, I had to both upgrade the firmware on the SATA controller AND set Rombar to off (where it defaults to on) in order for the kernel 6.14 or later to allow the VM to fully boot. I should have recognised this fault...

DDerekG replied to the thread [SOLVED] kernel: landlock - Error on VM boot - assistance required.Just a brief update on this TrueNAS VM issue. Today I decide to build a fresh TrueNAS VM with the host on kernel 6.17.4-1 and I am unable to get the VM to boot for installation, and with the passthrough devices attached the system would not...
