Sorry, yes, to be clear, I've read the manual and the API viewer, it's just that the distinction here doesn't make much sense to me. If nothing else there appears to be a significant lack of permissions granularity, since Datastore.Allocate isn't something I'd expect to give to the average user...

I'm not sure if this is a bug or a "works as intended" that I don't quite understand, but I'm confused by the permissions required to remove an uploaded disk image. As near as I can tell (both from the API viewer and from the error messages I'm receiving), removing an uploaded image of content...

I just ran into this issue myself, and your post pointed me in the correct direction: when mounting a new file system on a directory, the mounted file system's root permissions override the permissions previously set on the directory being mounted to. Thus, when mounting a new file system on...

Okay, so, digging a little deeper, it appears that the Proxmox Ceph 15.2.15 packages for Buster and Bullseye are just different enough (they have different CEPH_GIT_VERs) to trigger this warning after the first node has been upgraded. I'm not sure if this constitutes a bug or not, since the...

I'm finally getting around to upgrading to PVE 7 on my three-node hyperconverged cluster, and I'm following the upgrade guide in the Wiki. I installed all the PVE 6.4 upgrades on all three nodes, then upgraded the cluster to Ceph Octopus. Once that was done, I ran pve6to7 on one of the three...

In my experience (and that of others, according to the links I mentioned above) kvm64 along with the default flags guarantees failure (well, technically, "migration success", followed by a total hard-lock of the VM at some point afterwards). The blog post I referenced suggested the following...

Following on from this forum thread and this bug report, I was wondering what the current recommendation is for Linux VM CPU flags (or other settings) to allow migrating VMs between AMD- and Intel-based hosts? I couldn't find anything in the documentation, the most recent advice on that forum...

When you say "restart", did you stop the VM and start them, or did you reboot them, because, as mentioned above... -Russ

nginx isn't used directly by the Proxmox GUI; it only exists as a kind of overlay. The only way you'd lose access to the Proxmox GUI or SSH is if you configured nginx to use port 8006 or 22 (which would be basically impossible following the instructions above), and even then restarting nginx...
