    [SOLVED] Tuner Card Issues with Plex Container

    Did you ever get this working, @kck17288 ? I'm trying to do something similar, ubuntu container but with a Hauppauge USB thing and while I've got the container to see it under /dev/usb and /dev/dvb, plex just won't see it, with or without hauppauge's drivers and ppa and stuff installed.

    VM always starts suspended

    Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I gave up and deleted the VM and started again :(

    VM always starts suspended

    I have OPNSense running in a virtual machine in proxmox 6.04. Whenever the host is rebooted, the guest is in a paused state and doesn't boot. I haven't set "Freeze CPU at startup" and I can't see any other suspicious options. Console shows "Guest has not initialized the display (yet)." Hitting...

    Ext4 hard disks won't sleep (constant reads)

    I had not! But now I have....and I *think* it's solved my problem! May the internet gods bless you (and LnxBil for trying)!

    can't snapshot with bind mounts

    I don't think so, the snapshot button is greyed out, and pct snapshot 100 gives me an error (I'm not at home right now so I can't quote it). edit: If there is a way, I'd be grateful to know it?

    Ext4 hard disks won't sleep (constant reads)

    Don't think so. From the documentation:

    Ext4 hard disks won't sleep (constant reads)

    My mistake, it stops and starts with the pve-cluster service. So how do I stop pve-cluster reading block 0 of all my disks several times a second?!

    Ext4 hard disks won't sleep (constant reads)

    Well, I stopped everything here plus lxc-monitord and it still did it. [EDIT:WRONG] then I stopped lxcfs, apparmor and smartmontools and it stopped o_O My money is on smartmontools. More investigation to follow...

    Ext4 hard disks won't sleep (constant reads)

    Nope, if it was I could understand it. The disks are literally only used by the Plex container, but this happens even when it's off. I wondered if it's statistics collection for the web console? I did test with no web consoles open and it still happened.

    can't snapshot with bind mounts

    Sorry, I'm not sure I understand the question! the containers are on the NVMe ssd that I installed proxmox on, in whatever the default format is for that. Does that answer your question?

    Ext4 hard disks won't sleep (constant reads)

    Noted, but perhaps you could humour me by suggesting why this behaviour is happening anyway?

    Ext4 hard disks won't sleep (constant reads)

    I have a plex LXC which has some EXT4 hard disks bind-mounted to it. This means they are mounted on the host. Devices are /dev/sda, /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc. They aren't accessed by any other VM. None of them will stay parked. I have manually parked them with hdparm -y but they wake up...

    can't snapshot with bind mounts

    Yes, you're right, thank you. Unfortunately I have several disks with lots of stuff on that are ext4 so that doesn't help me, but I'm sure the info will be helpful to others.

    [SOLVED] Never mind (please ignore)

    EDIT sorry, removing the network card solved the problem. So I still have a problem (binding to the wrong interface??) but I will write that in a separate post when I've thought more about it. I guess submitting a post helps me to think through a problem :p can this post be deleted? ====...
