DDerekG replied to the thread Connection Error with USB-Device.The USB ports in these older system are notoriously unreliable, and using that for PBS which is a heavy on the I/O appliance is really asking for trouble. In addition to that using a spinning disk as your backup data store is also a problem due...

DDerekG replied to the thread Intel NUC11 Nvidia 2060 proxmox gpu passthrough.How are you connecting the Nvidia 2060 to the NUC Box, are you connected via the Thunderbolt port? Have you enabled the device in the thunderbolt security settings? And in the BIOS.? There are 2 thunderbolt tools which need to be installed in...

DDerekG replied to the thread NGINX Reverse Proxy for Proxmox WebUI on domain path.Why would anyone want to publish their Proxmox admin web console over the internet.? Surely the wiser approach would be to route that traffic via some sort of VPN, that is unless you are planning on providing access to the public.

DDerekG replied to the thread Temperature.I don't mean add-ons as in the case of modifying the Proxmox interface, I mean add-ons as separate tools which interact with the Proxmox API.
-
DDerekG replied to the thread Temperature.There are a multitude of 3rd party add-ons available for Proxmox, I personally think the Devs should focus on getting the core competences in the Proxmox environment functioning at its best and most stable. Let the 3rd party Devs out there deal...

DDerekG replied to the thread Proxmox - best practice to handle (USB) drives.I have 2x TrueNAS storage boxes, but I turned to OMV to handle drives connected via USB (currently 3x connected). I tried multiple LXC options and ZimaOS before settling on OMV running in VM as the most stable solution with USB connected drives...

DDerekG replied to the thread 8700G iGPU 780m passthrough.That script is for the CPU microcode update, it is not relevant to GPU pass-through. I have run the update script on my node without issue.

DDerekG replied to the thread Realtek RTL8157 (USB-C ---> RJ45).Hi, What host system / type of USB port are you connecting to there?. I've used a few of the USB to 2.5 / 5 / 10Gbps network adapters, and the older USB3.0 ports are not at all stable. I have around 5 different models of these NIC's sitting...

Working solution: RTL8157 (Wisdpi WP-UT5) on Proxmox VE 9 with r8152 DKMS I’ve got the Wisdpi WP-UT5 (RTL8157) running cleanly on PVE 9 using the awesometic r8152 DKMS driver, with Secure Boot MOK enrollment and automatic cdc_* blacklisting. I... -
DDerekG reacted to ca_masch's post in the thread Is there a way to backup the PVE Host to the Proxmox Backup Server (PBS)? with Like.
I faced the same question and built a little tool called TheReaniamtor for this purpose. It pulls the backups of the host configurations graphically via the API/SSH so that you don't have to do everything manually on the console. The Reanimator

DDerekG replied to the thread Questions of a Newbie about virtualization of PBS.Hi athompson3117, I have done a similar setup for my secondary PBS, but I've used ISCSI as the target, which is presented to the PBS as a block device, just like a drive. That does improve the performance but in regular use I use the sync...

DDerekG reacted to athompson3117's post in the thread Questions of a Newbie about virtualization of PBS with Like.
I started using PVE a little over a month ago to replace my VMware homelab. I wanted to use my QNAP NAS for backups, especially since it has native support to push files to the cloud. I also wanted to use PBS for the deduplication capabilities to...

DDerekG replied to the thread Minisforum UM790: USB4/Thunderbolt Passthrough.Well I finally got the boltclt list -a to identify my devices after going through all my config and ensuring that nothing related was actually blacklisted from the attempts at iGPU passthrough. Now I can enroll my device OK, it shows enabled but...

DDerekG replied to the thread Questions of a Newbie about virtualization of PBS.Reconnecting a PBS to a backup datastore, is not a simple process, it's not like connecting to an SMB/NFS share, believe me, I've done it, and even 1st time connecting to an external datastore is not a simple process because the PBS needs...

DDerekG replied to the thread USB Thunderbolt NIC Coldboot Problem.Have you checked for the latest USB4 update from ASUS.? (it appears to be separate from the BIOS firmware) I'm having a problem with a USB4 egpu dock, which I've worked on for weeks, and my system (Aoostar WTR MAX), uses the same USB4...

DDerekG reacted to bbgeek17's post in the thread A guard rail suggestion to avoid losing everything like I just did. with Like.
Hi @anthony1956 , welcome to the forum. While I sympathize with your situation and your request, we have all been there, what you are proposing is essentially a "knee-jerk" reaction and has very little chance of being implemented. It may make...

DDerekG replied to the thread Questions of a Newbie about virtualization of PBS.Hi exaveal, The question should not be, is it possible, but how would you recover should the host die when it is hosting both the PVS & PBS.??? I'm assuming that you are not backing up the full 12TB of Proxmox VM's/LXC's along with the media...

DDerekG replied to the thread CT backup to PBS - Excess data causing very long backup window.Sorry @Impact I was writing my reply as yours came in. I did try a second backup, but it was still crawling the entire 2TB of that folder, even if it didn't upload anything to the PBS. The Only way I could exclude it was to take the folder...

DDerekG replied to the thread CT backup to PBS - Excess data causing very long backup window.Just a heads up on this backup issue. After a couple of days of digging into the fault, I found that I could exclude the offending folder (meilisearch) from the backup, but then the app wouldn't start after restore. So the dev made a change to...

DDerekG replied to the thread CT backup to PBS - Excess data causing very long backup window.Thanks for the heads-up, I was not aware of that option. However, I stopped a quick test backup at 35 mins, assuming that the 'metadata' setting might shorten the time, it wouldn't be by much. Having identified the offending folder, I'm still...
