@aaron Node 1 is the main workhorse - with tons of VMs on it. It also has another truenas vm running there too. It will be much simpler for me to clear the VMs on node 2. How will the backup and restore work in this case? Update: -- It seems I am not using PCI to passthrough the disks ( I am...

Looking to create a cluster with two existing standalone nodes ( with VMs on them) and a new third node. The second node has a truenas vm, using 4 pci passed through disks. I am not entirely sure how to handle this when adding the node to the cluster. I can't migrate it because the disks are...

I have tried all of them. The network seems to have completely disappeared. All the unifi switches are in offline mode now. I think if there is a clean way to roll back, I'd like to do that an wait this out.

How can I rollback to v7? My network has been messed up on v8 and not getting anywhere to resolve it for a couple days now. Now, I cant even access the GUI anymore. Was available yesterday. Nothing has changed.

I upgraded to proxmox 8 last night. All my VMs now can't get an ip adress from the dhcp server. Not sure how to troubleshoot this. Other appliances on the home network get ip addresses just fine.

Got the same error message. How do you install systemd-boot ? Can i just install it with apt install systemd-boot ? Do i need to configure anything after that? Just want to make sure I do it correctly. btw, all my vms are not able to get ip addresses from the dhcp server anymore. not sure if...

@LnxBil I tried this route and got quickly lost with setting up a k8 cluster - way too complicated for me. And concerned about how to even troubleshoot if something goes wrong. Won't know where to start ! I could have used k3s. I have also recently being trying my hands at a hashicorp nomad...

I can't decide if its better to have a dedicated vm for each docker app install or just create one gaint vm to hold all docker containers ? Most of the discussions I have seen are centered on the merits of installing docker in an lxc or vm. I have decided to go the vm route. What are the...

I want to passthrough a dedicated 10G nic port to my truenas scale setup. I typically setup the static ip address by mapping a mac address to the static ip in my dhcp server. Not sure how this will work with the passthrough nic. I know the mac address of the NIC port. However, not sure where...

Done! I have just 8 nvme drives so didn't take too much time. I assumed I could add them via the extender. Using this method, I see the disks listed in both truenas and proxmox. Isn't that a problem? I wonder if Its better to add another controller in an available PCIe slot and connect all...

Yes, everything is ok ( for the sas drives). Not the nvme drives attached to the extender devices.

@leesteken - you mean pass each individual hard drive separately? What do you mean by "device"? I can't see any of the PLX devices in the dropdown list

Hello I have a Dell R740 server which has a PCIe backplane extender for nvme drives. I am looking to passthrough the extender to a truenas install . When I go to add PCIe device for the truenas vm, I don't see the extender listed though I can see it when I do an lspci on the proxmox node...

@aaron How about something like dell idrac service module ( ISM), which depends on the installed OS. Mine is not working with proxmox installed as the OS on the server.
