Thanks, I will.

Thanks for all valuable input provided. Much appreciated.

Thanks for the replies, mir and bbgeek17, appreciated. The intention (specially for this upcoming PoC) is to use what we already have in place, so we're not going to buy anything, and need no support. If we go PRD, specially the support part will of course change. I will checkout regular LVM on...

Hi all, As many, we are also contemplating a move from broadcom/vmware to proxmox, and are starting with a PoC now. I ran proxmox in the past with ceph cluster, so I know how great that combination it, but ceph is (now) not going to happen where I work, so: no ceph. At the institute we have a...

Hi, We have a 5-node cluster, 1.2.3.192 - 1.2.3.196, using a 10G direct fibre connection between the five (called dev hsl) and the following /etc/network/interfaces on host pve3: root@pve3:/etc/network# cat interfaces # network interface settings; autogenerated # Please do NOT modify this...

Hi Gilou, Thanks for your response. Appreciated. It's "full mesh" for the first three of the five nodes, and the remaining two are not participating in the full mesh ceph replication, have no OSD's, but are in the same /24 ip range, and in the same pve cluster. They would have access to the...

Hi, We’ve reviewed the relevant wiki articles, and we’re looking for feedback on a networking strategy for our Proxmox and Ceph cluster setup. Specifically, we aim to avoid using multiple arbitrary IPs and would prefer to use a single /24 network for all traffic, including Ceph cluster traffic...

We are seeing the same with our PoC PBS installation. PBS installed on a simple supermicro DOM, with 8 storage disks in a zfs raidz2 config. During boot, the import fails: root@pbs:~# systemctl status zfs-import@storage\\x2dbackup.service ● zfs-import@storage\x2dbackup.service - Import ZFS...

Ah I found post on changing ownership: You can manually change the owner (it's in the file called 'owner' in the backup group dir) All is well now! :-)

Right! So the environment variable is always required. That helps, thanks Hannes. Agreed on the documentation. Specifically some more examples would help for understanding better. :-) Anyway, it works now, except this: "Error: backup owner check failed (root@pam!server != root@pam) I guess...

Hi Hannes! I escaped like \!, because I was unsure where to start quoting. This gets me further, new error: root@server:~# proxmox-backup-client backup root.pxar:/ --repository root@pam\!cab1a7-9f-4xxxxxab9-b7-26bf4625@1.2.3.4:backup-repo --include-dev /var Error: error building client for...

Hi, Trying to setup a cron job, for doing regular backups to PBS. Trying to use an API token for authentication. I selected my backup-user, created an API token. And now want to use that token with my backup command: root@server:~# proxmox-backup-client backup root.pxar:/ --repository...

Ah yes, the documentation :-) Thanks!

Hi, Is it possible to configure synchronization of a local PBS datastore to a remote PBS install? Perhaps specify which backups to keep offsite, and for how long, etc? We are currently rsyncing VMs to onsite freenas, and then use zfs snapshots/replication to achieve offsite copies of the...

yes, some more attempts at apt dist-upgrade got this resolved. Not sure why this happens.Second host finished just fine.... Thanks Fabian, and sorry for the noise.
