I've a little more info. The server has five - 146 gb drives. Two are mirrored as RAID 0 so the capacity is 146gb. The other three are setup with RAID5 so the capacity is 292gb.

Sorry for the formatting. I used Notepad ++ to write it up and copied and pasted it and aligned it. After I posted I see it looks terrible.

Would somebody help me sort out what I've got here? This setup I've inherited because the admin quit. I'm not sure if some level of raid is setup. This is an IBM blade server in a chassis, it's directly attached storage, no Sans. The IBM Director app is down so I can't use it to check the...

dietmar - thanks for the ssh-copy-id command hint. I followed the instructions on this link and it seems to have worked. http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2008/11/3-steps-to-perform-ssh-login-without-password-using-ssh-keygen-ssh-copy-id/

Slave server locked up and I powered it off and now I have this problem. Would someone clue me in on how to fix it? I've searched and read some threads in the forum. Maybe the publckey password and or ssl certs are corrupt. slaveserver:~/.ssh# pveca -l...

Dietmar and Udo - thanks for your help. I've managed to backup the ct to a usb flash drive, reinstall Proxmox, and restore the ct from the file saved on the usb flash drive.

Thanks for the confirmation. I may need to ping you back on this. Over the weekend I'm going to try and restore a ct and get it started. If that works I'm going to blow away the box, reinstall, and restore the ct.

That's exactly what I did. I removed the backup dir that pointed to /var/lib/vz/dump. And recreated it and pointed it to /mnt/usbdisk. Note when I started out there was no /dump dir on /mnt/usbdisk. Ran a backup and now I have /mnt/usbdisk/dump/filename.tar.lzo. So when I run the backup...

I tried to start ct124 from the Gui, not the command line by the way.

All - I'm taking notes as I try things. So I pasted a couple I jotted down. So if something don't make sense ask me. Thanks from the console vzrestore vzdump-openvz.tar.lzo 124 tasks description ct124 - restore status ok datacenter openvz 124 disk usage and memory are 0% description ct 124...

What I'm trying to do. Simulate a catastrophic failure where you have to restore from backup on new hardware. What I've done. Install version 2.1. Download the Debian 5.0 template. Create an openvz container using Debian. Create a couple of backups. Copy the backup (.tar.lzo and .tar.gz) to...

I've got a Buffalo TeraStation NAS with 24tb's. I want to install Proxmox 2.1-13, mount the NAS, create a CT (Win2008 R2) and assign that disk space to a Windows server and format it as NTFS. Can this be done? Problem I need to solve. I've got 4 tb's of user folders and files with NFTS file...
