EDIT: Happily, in the course of writing this post, I found the data in /dev/dm-1, but nonetheless it remains quite disturbing. Does anyone care to speculate/theorize as to how this could have happened? Fortunately I have a recent backup, but it is disturbing nonetheless. I have a...

UPDATE My main problem was that I was setting vm.nr_hugepages to 1024*2 in sysctl, without understanding that this was overriding my cmdline argument of hugepages=1. I thought I was defining the pagefile size. As a result, hugepages would allocate 119 or 118 x 1Gb pagefiles, which the system...

Bump Here is how my interface is set up: iface vmbr1 inet manual bridge-ports enp5s0f1 bridge-stp off bridge-fd 0

I have a 3 node cluster. One of the VMs is my gateway, which happens to be pfsense. I use vmbr0 for LAN, as per default, and I create a vmbr1 for the WAN interface. For the purposes of troubleshooting, I have my ONT connected directly to a proxmox node, and I physically move the WAN uplink...

Shameless bump

I have a three node cluster, wherein vmbr1 is dedicated as a wan interface. I recently upgraded the motherboard of two of the nodes, and their nics seems to fight with themselves for the wan ip when they run my router vm (pfsense), because they seem to have two mac addresses. The wan interface...

SOLVED: I decided to instead create a volme on the NAS which I export as NFS. With respect to the pve-zsync, I got some disks and installed an openindiana/napp-it server to manage them. It doesn't quite work, but that's a subject for another thread. Hi. I got a new nas, and added a target...

I have a server that is not part of my cluster, and I'd like to move one of its VMs to the shared storage on my cluster. As the VM is on zfs storage, and I don't have a zfs pool of sufficient size on my cluster, I've set up temp storage on one of the nodes. One of the virtual disks is 0.5 TB...

I've noticed that PVE can be somewhat fickle when I restart or start containers. I entered a console's container just now and ran "reboot". The container did not come back, and I noticed that the status of the container became inconsistent, i.e. the icon shows that it is running, but the stop...

Hi. I have a SAN set up for vm storage. It consists of two bonded nics on my nodes, as well as on a qnap NAS. (FWIW, each NIC goes to a dedicated switch, and the two switches are bridged.) I'd like to set up a FreeNAS VM and give it access to the SAN network. I thought I might be able to...

I tried to set up multipath today on a cluster of old servers that I've been using for testing. I have a four bay nas with two raid-1 targets/luns. Currently there's one lun per target, and both interfaces are enabled for each target. The multipathd.conf file I came up with is as follows...

This is for "HomeLab"/Educational purposes. I run a couple of lightweight services on the 3 nodes in question. There's a DVR with a couple of cameras, a PVR I rarely use, a samba-based domain controller, a Unifi Controller, a pfsense router, and a light PBX. The DVR, PVR, and router are KVMs...

SOLVED: It was simply an uncompressed vma file. I did: cat myfile.vma | qmrestore - 101 What follows is the original post. ================================================ On SERVER_A, I send a backup to SERVER_B like this: vzdump 105 --stdout | ssh -p 25222 root@20ttt.ddns.net "cat -...
