Yep, that was it. Thanks for the help.

Interesting. /var/log/auth.log didn't exist on my PBS3 installation until I created it and SSHD isn't writing to it. /etc/ssh/sshd_config has the default config for logging (SyslogFacility AUTH). I have no idea where SSHD is writing it's logs!

Thanks Dominik. There are 3 nodes each accessing several datastores on PBS so that would explain it. I'm not familiar with "using api tokens instead of the root user directly" but I'll have a look into it. Anyway I'm not particularly concerned about it and log rotation seems to be working...

Actually the failure is recorded in /var/log/proxmox-backup/api/auth.log: "authentication failure; rhost=[::ffff:10.100.0.10]:60267 user=fake@pam msg=user account disabled or expired." I must have missed it the first time - the log file is huge. When I follow the log with tail I see it's...

Hello all, I've followed the guide at https://github.com/inettgmbh/fail2ban-proxmox-backup-server to set up fail2ban for PBS. Couple of issues with this, but the one I'm currently trying to sort out is why failed attempts via the PBS gui aren't recorded in...

Thanks for the tip, but I won't be running any VMs on node 5. All the VM's will be (are) on CEPH SSD's on nodes 1 - 4. The HDD storage is primarily for Proxmox Backup Server datasets, but will also provide shared HDD storage over NFS for VM bulk data disks. Using zfs send to sync the pools...

Ah yes, will run zfs on these.

I've got half a dozen Seagate IronWolf HDDs in an R730xd. They IronWolf's aren't real quick but they have been pretty reliable so far. The server takes 12 x 3.5" drives and I'll likely fill the remaining bays with some Dell 3TB SAS drives that are laying around.

That makes sense. Thanks for the feedback gurubert.

Hi All, I've read a few posts about running an even number of nodes in a Proxmox cluster and issues with split brain. I'm building a 5 node Proxmox cluster where 4 of the nodes have SSDs and the 5th node has 3.5" HDDs for bulk storage. So, the 4 x SSD nodes will run CEPH and all 5 nodes will...

Answering my own question here, it looks like the only way to go back to 7.3.3 is to reinstall all the nodes. I'm up for it, but I can't find the installer anywhere. Does anyone know where I can get an iso to install 7.3.3? Thanks

Me too! I really need a version for 7.4.3. Alternatively, does anyone know how to downgrade Proxmox to 7.3.3?

Actually they are QLE8262

Just wondering if this was ever solved? I have a few Dell QL8272's which I believe are the same card and have the same issue; i.e. they work but produce the out of bounds error. I found a thread at https://github.com/liamalxd/kmod-qlcnic which has instructions for compiling a new driver for...

Actually I think pfsense is build on 12.2 STABLE.
