It was a mirror. I used a snapshot to transfer & then deleted post-transfer. Guys, Thank you for responding. I think I'm reading the tool incorrectly, specifically "zfs list". I read AVAIL as total SIZE. When I looked at space using df, I see this. root@vs1:/# df -h Filesystem...

Had mirror ZFS pool with 2 4T drives. Upgraded to 2 8T drives. Created a new pool on new drives using all available space. Performed a zfs send/recv to clone the pool to new drives. Content intact but pool & datasets show 3.56T available, the amount available on old pool. The old pool was...

I run a couple of containers and a couple of KVMs, one being a Windows server. I have read about Ubuntu Server's virtualization capabilities. What are the pros and cons of Proxmox vs Ubuntu Server for a setup like mine?

Genius! It worked for me. Was able to apply 2.2GB pending updates.

Some additional info: Top in host shows kvm process taking about 35% CPU % while Proxmox dashboard currently shows 45% and Top in pfSense shows nearly 100% CPU idle.

I recently upgraded from 3.2 to 3.3. I am not seeing weird stats in the Proxmox web admin for my pfSense (qemu32) KVM. For the KVM, the memory seems stuck at saying 728MB is being used and CPU usage is 60-80% on dual cores. Issuing a "top" command in pfSense shell shows there is 94-99% CPU idle...

Never mind. I figured it out. I had some NFS mounts in fstab that were no longer valid. Apparently they never timeout if invalid and halt the entire boot process. They've been removed and order has been restored to the Proxmox universe.

I can enter the Ubuntu 14.04 server container, but no network access because it gets stuck at boot up or at least appears to be. Here is the last message I see. Starting configure network device [ OK ] I can restart the networking service after I enter the container and then access the network...

Thanks nova. If pfSense 192.168.1.1 and my wireless AP is 192.168.1.2, is this how my interfaces file should look? # network interface settings auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface eth0 inet manual iface eth1 inet manual auto vmbr0 iface vmbr0 inet static address 192.168.1.5 netmask...

Can someone tell me if there is another way to fix this, i.e. without using another router? I have pfSense setup in an OpenVZ and want all VZ and KVM's and Proxmox host on one machine with 2 NICs. I want all to go through pfSense. They all work except the Proxmox host. apt-get update, etc fails.

Never mind question. I found this... http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/9451-Adding-Multiple-Physical-Disks-to-VM Looks like 2 strategies to setting up file server: 1. The way 1nerdyguy did it with drives hosting a qcow2 file holding all of the files being served. 2. Attaching a physical device...

Can you give me a reference to how to attach raw drives to a KVM? What I know of storage in Proxmox is bind mount points for containers and this... http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage_Model

So, if you were to examine the contents of the RAID5 in a host OS SSH session, it would be holding a giant qcow file which holds the files being served. Correct? If you have another KVM or a container needs access to file server storage, it's done via a NFS share?

Thanks for the reply. Is the Win2k8 server serving files from directories stored on its virtual disks, i.e. RAW or qcow2 or VMDK? Or, is the storage source independent and linked into the KVM?

No one uses Proxmox with a file server? This is as close to advice I could find on setting one up and even he is unsure its optimal setup. http://people.binf.ku.dk/~hanne/b2evolution/blogs/index.php/2011/08/18/virtualization-with-proxmox
