    Stuggling with noVNC/xterm.js behind pfSense/HAProxy

    Very interesting. I'm looking to put an email server behind HAProxy and thought I'd have to hand configure it. Didn't know pfSense had this feature. Here's an AI response to your problem... Based on your description, it seems like your Proxmox setup behind a pfSense firewall using HAProxy...

    First-time production server using zfs

    I saw someone mention that on zfs the atime is somehow important for the backups. Might want to check on that advice.

    Missing 7 of 8 cores on Host.

    here is /proc/cpuinfo now, after running the new kernel: root@pve9:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 23 model name : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5450 @ 3.00GHz stepping : 10 microcode : 0xa07 cpu...

    Missing 7 of 8 cores on Host.

    It's running good so far on 6.0.19-1 on the pve-kernel-edge. I thought I might have an instability issue but that seemed to be a holdover from the nolapic setting when shutting down a vm. Now that nolapic is NOT being used I was able to shutdown cleanly the vm and things seem stable.

    Missing 7 of 8 cores on Host.

    OK... problem remediated. I used the PVE-Edge-Kernel Verified that I did not need to use nolapic when booting from the pve-kernel-6.0.17-edge kernel. and ... I see all 8 cores now with top! And when I inspect /proc/cpuinfo I now see all 8 cores (0-7) So I've confirmed this on my...

    Missing 7 of 8 cores on Host.

    I just tried on another dell 1950 III server. kernel 5.15.74-1-pve Also sees only one core. Oh, by the way it's a bitch to install proxmox on these boxes as the video isn't detected properly. I've seen the problem reported elsewhere in this forum. I managed to work around it by figuring...

    Missing 7 of 8 cores on Host.

    cat /sys/devices/cpu/type 4 I have several Dell 1950 III units... So I'll try checking another one. There was a similar issue on reddit titled "dude where are my cores :( ?" https://www.reddit.com/r/debian/comments/smg8uj/dude_where_are_my_cores/ So in that thread they suggested trying a...

    Missing 7 of 8 cores on Host.

    I'm running a Dell 1950 III - It has two Xenon 5450 quad core cpus. Because of another bug that makes proxmox not run on Dell 1950's I have had to set a kernel parameter as such: nolapic When I run top on a linux machine I press "1" and it shows the utilization statistics for each of the...

    Cant install Proxmox!

    I was having similar results upgrading from 6.4 to 7.2. An older kernel was still there so through Grub I chose the older 5.4.203-1-pve kernel boots fine. I'll try adding the nolapic kernel parameter to the normal bootup and see if that gives me a reliable reboot.

    new install eth0: received packet with own address as source

    I have been seeing this message on a Dell R610 with it's broadcom 4 port ethernet card (BCM5709 ). I experienced about 26 seconds of stalls of ssh sessions going into the server from my laptop. I've observed that that I can have a screen session with pings running continually during the...

    Proxmox ZFS raid-1 setup using UUID not /sdX

    I want the samba to be connected as closely as possible to the ZFS filesystem. I tried running an Ubuntu container, then adding Zentyal into it and almost got that to work. It was suggested to mount the filesystems in though the containers, but I didn't see a way to modify the zfs permissions...

    Proxmox ZFS raid-1 setup using UUID not /sdX

    Strangely, every other recent distribution that I have used with the Linux Kernel uses UUID numbers for referencing drives. This is really odd that Proxmox with zfsonlinux doesn't do the same. I'm sure people can get around the problem by rebooting or rescanning the drives somehow. I'm sure...
