I work for a non profit and I supply my users with older hardware. It's one of the ways we keep costs down to use the maximum of our funding for the individuals we support. The new requirements of Windows 11 are quite worrisome, because I will have to replace something like 200 computers when...

scenario: 4 proxmox 3.4 nodes with AOE shared lvm storage backend. No containers, just KVM vms. objective: upgrade cluster to 5.3 method: migrate all vms off of one node install new 5.3 from iso on unoccupied node. (boot off of iso. I used a burned dvd) reconnect (now) 5.3 node to all...

question: is the format of the /etc/pve/qemu-server/???.conf files any different from 3.x in 4.x ?

yeah actually, we're used to vendors using the word 'recommend.' not that impressed. I have now gone to the trouble of setting up a junk cluster to test no-subscription updates on because of your 'not recommended' I don't have the room, but...

System: HP SAS Disk array made available on storage node via vblade (AoE daemon) on 8 1GB ports bonded as bond0. 4 Proxmox 3.0 hosts access the array on bonded (bond0) interfaces of 4 1GB ports per host using the linux kernel AoE modules. AoE is via a Netgear GS748T. Shared Storage is handled...

this is still a cludge. If I might I'd like to add it as a wishlist item to specify existing files or LVM volumes from the web interface. Right now I just edit /etc/pve/qemu-server/<VMID>.conf. (also a cludge)

Are you sure you're in the right thread?

Problem solved. I thought I had applied all the latest updates to both but I hadn't. Thought I'd doublecheck that and found the embarrassing truth. They are now at the same patch level and migration works as before.

yes they are.

no change The vm dies on migrate although now it keeps the disk configuration intact

the destination node appears to fail to start the vm at the time when the web based migration log says that it is doing so /var/log/pve/tasks/E/UPID:mox-6:0000BA8B:0088479A:5059F53E:qmstart:100:root@pam: contains only I would think it would include a note about starting the vm, if all things...

1) yes. stop vm, migrate, restart vm works fine 2) no cd-rom image at all or any other virtual hardware besides a virtio disk and a virtio lan adapter. (the original vm was done using a pxe-boot debian iso but that shouldn't have affected anything, because once the install is done, the...
