    Offline migration with sparse copy

    I know that I can remap the storage, but this makes a full copy which takes a while - the question is how to speed this up :)

    Offline migration with sparse copy

    Good Morning, I am screwed and need some help :cool: I have two nodes attached to a shared storage (SAN using LVM) and I need to shutdown the storage system for maintenance. There is a third node in the cluster with local disks and the idea was to move some important services to this one to...

    Spam detection rate dropped significantly after upgrade to v8

    Hi All, I have upgraded from PMG 7 to 8 some weeks ago and the spam detection rate dropped significantly. I had a nice setup using bayes and clamav with external rules and it seems none of this mechanisms is either working or catching spam. I read that Bayes is no longer recommended but it WAS...

    re-bootstrap existing container from (new) template

    Hi, I have several containers running on debian buster wich I want to upgrade to debian bookworm. As I have strictly separated user data and the rootfs on two disks it would be easy to just install a "fresh" debian 12 on a new root disk and swap them after installation or even just replace the...

    File-Based incremental backup for Windows Server VMs?

    H Aaron, yes you are right I need a solution where - at best - the customer can browser his backuped files and just say "restore this file/folder from yesterdays backup". It would be ok to have a UI for some sort of central helpdesk but it is not acceptable that I need a technican to do some...

    File-Based incremental backup for Windows Server VMs?

    Hi All, I am using PVE for quite a while with lInux guest and as this works like a charm we are evaluating to migrate a larger customer project using Windows Server to this platform. I checked a lot of threads here in the forum and also "on the internet" but I am unable to find a nice solution...

    [SOLVED] Run docker build inside LXC

    Hi Stefan, [root@wrs-centos-build ~]# lsmod | grep overlay overlay 77824 0 So yes it is, but this was the right pointer but not the solution ;) There are two versions overlay and overlay2 and the docker inside the container uses "Storage Driver: overlay2" which is not found -...

    OVS Bridge without network card

    Hi All, I run VE (still 5.4 if this matters) on a pizza box where all physical network cards are used (one NIC is used directly and one NIC carries several VLANs to the outside firewall). I now want to setup some VMs that share a set of "private networks", those networks dont need to be...

    Mixed Cluster 5.4 / 6.x during upgrade?

    Yes I am - the initial question was if I can move machines between a 5.4 and a 6.1 node where the 6.1 node was upgraded "InPlace" from a working cluster. Wolfgang said no, spirit set yes and any later reply mixes up different aspects.....

    Mixed Cluster 5.4 / 6.x during upgrade?

    I don't think an InPlace Upgrade of a 2-node system is a corner case and the HowTo gives - at least to my understanding - hints on how to upgrade an existing cluster. So can you please clarify if an InPlace Upgrade with two nodes as written in my initial post is a tested and supported way?

    Mixed Cluster 5.4 / 6.x during upgrade?

    To be honest: it would be nice to have this upgrade path "tested" at least to some extend and I am very confused about the fact that the cluster/corosync update and an "Inline Update" is mentioned in the HowTo. Bottom Line - as far as I understand this - the correct way is: Migrate all VMs to...

    Mixed Cluster 5.4 / 6.x during upgrade?

    With a shared storage? For 6TB of data - I hope you are kidding....
