Adding my 2 cents; I had to come up with a solution yesterday for our UPS emergency shutdown logic. I am using 2 scripts, one shutdown & one startup Shutdown script (read the comments!): #!/bin/bash # This script is to be run only on one (main) node. #systemctl stop pve-ha-lrm pve-ha-crm ->...

Hey, since Win 2012 Servers, Microsoft supports creating clones from a Domain Controller. (New-ADDCCloneConfig) However I could only find information about this on Hyper-V and ESXi. Does Proxmox/KVM support this feature aswell? I only found this old thread which doesn't have an answer...

If anyone else has a similar problem: 1. Check if the MTU to your storage is correct. In my case, Proxmox used 1500 and the storage used 1300. I changed everything to Jumboframed (9000 mtu) 2. Cachemode of Virtual Disks. I had writeback active on most of my VMs and that caused high IO-Delay when...

On the host, that's why it's affecting all VMs. I just set up my second server and it has the same Problem. The difference here: no multipathing, only one regular iSCSI connection.

Hey, over the weekend I brought our 2nd server online to redo the first one. I moved all VMs/CTs to the 2nd server and deleted the first since everything seemed fine. However when even the slightest IO operation occurs (e.g. opening a browser on a server) the IO delay skyrockets up to 90+%...

Hey, I have a VM with 3 disks. The disks are distributed over 3 different storages. When I select "Restore" in the Backup tab, I can only restore to one storage. Is it possible to select where each disk is supposed to be restored? (Same with moving to another node) Sincerely Ray_

Hey, I have a cluster of 3 nodes. One is booting via iSCSI which is kind of unstable. That's why I want to move the whole boot partition to local disks formatted with ZFS. No VMs are directly on this partition, only isos. My current plan is to migrate all VMs/CTs to the other 2 nodes and...

The data center technician scanned the whole system including hard drives and found no faulty parts.

Since I host this instance in a datacenter, I contacted their support. Let's see what comes from this. I am currently running the 5.13 kernel. Do you think an update to 5.15 would help? Had to do this for my PVEs since 5.13 plays badly with iSCSI boot.

After 9 days of nothing happening, today it crashed again. Weirdly enough 30 minutes after the backup and all tasks have finished. Syslog and dmesg -w shows nothing, besides the finished tasks.

Well, 7 days... I increased it now, but do I also have to increase the rotate count for syslog?

Hey, I just tried to check some email statistics from January, but the Sender, Receiver, and Contact statistics are empty. However, I can list all the emails from January in the tracking center, and in the domain statistic, it's showing the correct amount of emails. In the spam score...

Weirdly enough for the last 2 days, it's now working without a hiccup. Very strange. I'll keep dmesg running for a few more days just in case it happens again.

I don't think that this will help, since the kern.log from the last crash has nothing in it in the timeframe of the crash. Afaik dmesg and kern.log have the same information.

Hey, since Friday my PBS crashes when backing up. Here are the last lines of syslog before I have to hard reset the server, because it becomes completely unresponsive. No Web interface, no pings. Feb 14 00:33:48 backup proxmox-backup-proxy[1842]: vm/107/2022-02-04T23:00:42Z remove Feb 14...
