    Proxmox crash with message "pveproxy[2503]: worker 6682 started"

    thanks for your advice. I actually was in 6.1 before. 6.1 always crashed on my system. So I downgraded to 5.4. Then it seldom crashes. Thus, I do not think the upgrade is a viable solution.

    Proxmox crash with message "pveproxy[2503]: worker 6682 started"

    Hi, Our Proxmox system crashed yesterday. After that, no one could log into it until I manually restart the proxmox server on site. I looked into the syslog and found out the crash started on Mar 19 08:58:21 with the message "pveproxy[2503]: worker 6682 started". I am using proxmox-ve: 5.4-1. I...

    is there a way to reduce the space taken by snapshots?

    thanks. I actually have a feeling this alarm can be ignored. I use thin LVM, not thick LVM. From the GUI, I am able to see that real space usage is less than 5%. Even the thin volume is more than the physical volume, I am still able to create and run new VMs. Thus, my understanding is this...

    is there a way to reduce the space taken by snapshots?

I am wondering if there...

    Proxmox freezing

    Hi, I installed Proxmox 6.1 on two servers 1 month ago. Each server has eight 1.8T hard disks. I used RAID 50 to combined them together on each server. Both servers are suffering from system freezing issues. When it happens, SSH and https into the system fail. Even the monitor and keyboard...

    Proxmox 6.1 system frozen

    I only have one server running proxmox. I think to backup all current running VMs offline to a disk and then re-install the whole proxmox. Could anyone give me some clue about how to do the offline backup to a portable disk? thanks,

    Proxmox 6.1 system frozen

    I Just want to add a little bit more info. After the installation, I did the server IP address change from one subnet to another subnet. The implementation from the GUI failed. I had to manually change the server IP by consoling into the server and changing the IP with /etc/network/interfaces...

    newbie question: cannot ping the Proxmox server after the fresh installation

    Hi Thomas, There is only one virtual hard drive under BIOS. There is no way for me to try every hard disk. I tried to repair the Grub with commands like below (just a demo, not exactly the same disc name as mine) but the command "grub rescue > insmod normal" could not pass through and gave an...
