    CPU usage graph - did something change in July '25?

    Although the question remains, I haven't changed how I use my host, so why are all the metrics so much higher than before? Or were the past data not as accurate as now?

    CPU usage graph - did something change in July '25?

    Ah great, thank you for that link. I guess I didn't have the right keywords to search for that. I'm on 9.0.11 although can't quite remember when I upgraded (within the first month of 9 being out).. But tbh I won't upgrade again so soon, my host became unbootable and nightmare to solve. First...

    CPU usage graph - did something change in July '25?

    The display looks so much different than before, much more fine grained and also my server and habits didn't change, so I wonder why the apparent huge increase in CPU usage displayed. Perhaps the values are recorded much more frequently? But that would only explain the "Maximum" graph. This is...

    bind mounting host dirs into CT has been reliable

    Why Not Integrate `pct stop <containerID> --kill` into the Web GUI?

    Very good point. I realized I had forgotten about the shell access via gui soon after I made my above post.

    Why Not Integrate `pct stop <containerID> --kill` into the Web GUI?

    It would be great to have the ability to `pct unlock <lxc-id>` from the GUI. I had this issue today due to a failed scheduled backup and I rebooted the node via GUI (on my phone), but even after the restart, my lxc container wouldn't start and a lock icon was showing for that container. I wasn't...

    More reliable drive mounting after host reboot

    Thank you, @_gabriel -- I've updated to timeout 3, that seems very sensible! I would enjoy seeing others' fstab configurations as examples if anyone would like to share :-) thanks all

    More reliable drive mounting after host reboot

    Hi, I'm having an issue with ensuring the physical drives on my proxmox hosts mount reliably after a reboot. Right now my /etc/fstab looks like this: LABEL=SSD1 /mnt/SSD1 ext4 rw,noatime,nofail,x-systemd.device-timeout=1,errors=remount-ro 0 2 LABEL=SSD2 /mnt/SSD2 ext4...

    Safely sharing host directory amongst multiple LXC containers

    It must have been something like that.. I can't remember the exact configuration. But it was bad enough that I want a bit of reassurance that bind mounts can be rw mounted on multiple containers without conflict :-)

    Safely sharing host directory amongst multiple LXC containers

    A quick validation question for the gurus here: Is it possible to bind mount a host directory to multiple LXC containers and not run into disk write conflicts? Let's say there is a folder [or entire drive] on the host at /mnt/ssd/myfolder. And I have multiple unprivileged LXC containers, say...

    Restrict access to LAN

    I'm experimenting with the Security Group feature for the first time. I've read the documentation but can't quite put my finger on it... I have a KVM running LMDE and want it to be able to access the internet, but not any devices on the LAN. The use case is to give users linux virtual machines...

    Host Uptimes (or reboot frequency best practice)

    Hi all- I'm just curious how often you all reboot your hosts? I suppose it's the same as a more general question of how often to reboot a fairly plain debian box. But I'm just curious, anecdotally what sort of frequency you do so. I use unattended-upgrades and it sends me an email whenever an...
