I'm getting good results with Rocky Linux 10 running as CPU type "host" on a Minisforum UM560xt.

I can't give you a direct answer other than the fact I have a Minisforum UM560xt and I'm seeing the same thing. The weird thing about it though is that it will disconnect SSH sessions for the PM host, but the VMs work just fine. As a test, I tried to download a 3GB image via wget on the host...

I have a PM VE host that has an external drive attached which I use for backup. It works great. I added a 2nd PM VE host, but it is not clustered as I can't get the PM VE versions to be compatible for corosync. I don't need them clustered though. However there is a 2nd NIC with an...

I have had a bunch of these servers colocated and never had a problem with PM 6.3 on them. We received a new one recently and it was shipped to a remote data center. It is supposed to be clustered with a PM 5.2 machine (older R610) so I attempted to install PM 5.4 on it. It installed fine...

Out of interest, just tried the same KVM installation with Rocky Linux 10 (RHEL 10) and it seems that host doesn't work on my hardware. Has anyone had any luck installing RHEL 10 on their PMVE?

I am getting spam from a domain that has an enormous number of subdomains that they send through. If I blacklist the main domain (ie. xxxx.com) will that also blacklist all the subdomains with it? Or do I have to format the domain as *.xxxx.com or something like that?

Just wanted to follow up on this as I solved it with a solution. Before anyone embarks on trying to install PMG at Hetzner (which I kinda love their services and their UI for admin, etc.) know that they don't let you send out on port 25 or 465 at all. No exceptions it would seem. This is...

Something kinda crazy happened. I reached out to Hetzner and asked them about clean IPs, etc. and they were very helpful. I spun up one of their servers and they even have a Proxmox Mail Gateway ISO image available to mount and install. So I spent 5 hours installing and then configuring every...

Thank you so much for this information. I'll reach out to Hetzner and see if they will take me. We don't do anything other than run our own mail server for a handful of users, and there is no spam. We could just use Google Workspaces, but it kinda irks me of the privacy issues with that...

Hi there, we run a PMG system that front-ends our mail server (Axigen) and it works perfectly. We had a number of colocated servers in a data center in Phoenix, USA but have decided to decommission those servers. We downsized to a single server in Texas, and that works great. Except.... The...

I am looking to purchase a couple of Minisforum MS-01 systems for a small PM VE cluster, and they have support in the boxes for up to 3 x NVME drives, and I'm looking at options to configure these. I can get 96GB of memory in each box, but would like to have 4TB or more of storage per box as...

I'm looking at custom building a 1U server designed for colocation, where it won't be serviced regularly. My goal is a low power consumption platform (ie. AMD EPYC or similar) with a 20TB+ storage system that removes most of the challenges of spinning HDD failure rates. I was thinking SSDs...

Have you measured power consumption on it?

Yep, that would work. But I got my existing Minisforum machine going. However the thing that is intriguing here is the low power consumption. I'm thinking of putting a cluster of these boxes together, so I might just give that one a try as well. Thanks for the input.

So just an update to this thread.... Per uDoB's suggestion, I decided to take the plunge and I installed 7.3 VE on it. The amazing thing is that it worked out of the box. NICs recognized immediately, DHCP grabbed an IP just fine and following install, reboots perfectly. I guess this was a...
