So did I and it works well. Thank you. Marc

Dear Stefan,, I had tried this earlier before posting but without success : $ qm status 201 ipcc_send_rec[1] failed: No such file or directory ipcc_send_rec[2] failed: No such file or directory ipcc_send_rec[3] failed: No such file or directory please run as root $ As you can see, even the...

Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to grant to a specific user the permission to run qm reset or qm reboot. Thanks in advance. Marc

Hi, is there a way to prune backups for a given container without creating a new back-up ? I can of course do it from the GUI but would like to do it from the CLI. Thanks. Marc

Hi, I am having difficulties migrating a Debian container running on a Proxmox 6 host (5.4.106-1-pve) to a plain Debian 10 server (kernel 4.19.0-16-amd64). I tried the following : - restore from Proxmox backup - restore from tar archive with --numeric-owner option - run lxc-start as user and...

Hi, I would like to perform two automated tests on the backups taken every night of my containers and VMs : - untar - start The backups are transferred every night to a machine that runs Debian 10. I started writing a bash script that takes the latest backup for a given CT/VM ID and untars...

Just another hint. From the container, /proc/bus/usb appears to be owned by nobody:nobody.

Hi, I am trying to allow an unprivileged container to communicate with my APC UPS using apcupsd. I have modified my conf file and added the two following lines : lxc.cgroup.devices.allow: c 189:* rwm lxc.mount.entry: /dev/bus/usb/001/006 dev/bus/usb/001/006 none bind,optional,create=file On...

Yes I did, using gParted and then I did zfs set volsize=... It worked like a charm. Thanks

Hi, I installed 6.3 on a new server in order to test it prior to migrating my main server. In the process, I switched from LVM to ZFS. I would like to use the qemu-img -resize command in order to shrink a raw file on ZFS. How can I achieve this ? Cheers. Marc

Hi, this may be a stupid question to those who know the answer, but not to me... Can I upgrade a container to Debian 10 without upgrading the host, which currently runs Debian 9 ? Tanks in advance. Marc

Alex, Doesn't a snapshot apply to all drives ? I only one the C: drive, where the OS and programs are, to be frozen. The other drive(s) contain data and must be able to change permanently. Marc

Thanks. If I can vote somehow for this feature, let me know. It is really useful for Windows machines that tend otherwise to slow down over time and update or reset settings by themselves.

Hi, I would like to know if Proxmox has a feature similar to a non-persistent drive in VMWare Workstation. I remember that a similar question has already been asked and answered negatively in the past. But things may have changed though searching both the internet and this forum hasn't given...

Got it working as far as I can judge by adding this to the containers's config file : lxc.mount.entry = /dev/fuse dev/fuse none bind,create=file
