    [SOLVED] After 8.1.3 upgrade Summary Graphs are blank

    Thank you for sharing your solution @iay. I faced a similar issue and resolved it by disabling IPv6 on my Synology device. I was able to kick RRD back into gear without having to reboot my hosts by logging out of the iSCSI session then logging back in. Here are the basic commands (can also be...

    [SOLVED] Ceph, systemd and Killmode=none

    I'm still seeing this in the syslogs (Nov 2023) so for what it's worth you can silence the error with sudo nano /lib/systemd/system/ceph-volume@.service Locate the line KillMode=none and change it to mixedor control-group. Make this change on all your CEPH nodes. When you're done, don't forget...

    Strange Incident - Server Self-Powered Off

    Thank you so much @RolandK and @johndoe297 for your suggestions. After a lot of trial and error I was able to determine the cause of the problem was most likely a CPU that was overheating, triggering the IPMI (BMC, IDRAC whatever you want to call it) to shut down the system. The strange thing is...

    Does anyone know the answer to this?

    CephFs: which network for backups

    Hey all. Hopefully a simple question. Which network is used for backups when backing up to CephFs (as configured from Proxmoc GUI)? I'd assume it's the public network, right? I'm using 25Gb fiber nics for my cluster network. Would it be possible to easily set backups to use the cluster network...

    Strange Incident - Server Self-Powered Off

    I recently encountered a rather bizarre situation and thought I'd share it. I have this server situated in a secure data center where only one other person and I have access. Nevertheless, the server unexpectedly shut itself down. The system in question is a SuperMicro 2028TP-HC0R 2U, outfitted...

    New installation: System RAID1 how to create SWAP

    @Helmut101 what you're saying isn't quite correct, but I realize my explanation above is misleading. Per the bug report, with zvol swap devices, high memory operations hang indefinitely despite there being a lot of swap space available. So this bug occurs during high memory stress situations...

    RRDC and RRD update errors

    Worked for me. Thanks @chudak and @pcready.cl! I was also having a related issue where Proxmox GUI was logging me out every 30 seconds due to clocks being out of sync.

    Need help with VLANs

    Hey all, I have a relatively uncomplicated setup but I can't for the life of me figure out how to pass tagged traffic from a VM through Proxmox. Probably something dumb but I'd love another set of eyes to help me debug. I have 2 nics on my server: eno1 and eno2. I want untagged VLAN11 (11U)...

    New installation: System RAID1 how to create SWAP

    No, they're not fixed yet. Per this AskUbuntu post that explains the bug well: Therefore, use swap on ZFS at your own risk. Based on my personal experience, I've never filled up 8GB of swap, so this isn't a big risk to me. However in a production environment I could see this being a huge issue...

    New installation: System RAID1 how to create SWAP

    This is actually a great question, and I'm surprised nobody has posted a solution yet. You have to create a ZFS swap pool. If you try to create a swapfile the old-fashioned way, you'll see the error root@PVE1:~# swapon /swapfile swapon: /swapfile: skipping - it appears to have holes. Later...
