Yes, 0000 seems correct but why entries got shuffled on next boot as I mentioned earlier ? I need to understand what broke it in first place. I think it was Removable bootloader found at '/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.efi', but GRUB packages not set up to update it! which I had ignored. Also, why...

Since I can now boot to proxmox, can I fix it from promox ? I did change order using `efibootmgr -o 0001,0003,0006,0006` but on next reboot it booted to incorrect one (0001) and dropped to `initramfs` prompt. Also network thing is fixed, it was just change of name of NIC.

It was not installed by me so not sure, may be they had installed debian and then PVE over it. Setup is this way : /dev/nvme0n1p1 - ESP parition /dev/md2 - boot /dev/md3 - root /dev/md5 - /var/lib/vz /dev/vg/data (lvm) for storage. Before chroot I did mount /proc /sys /run /dev /dev/ptr . I...

I upgraded promox 7.4 for 8.4, after upgrde it was stuck at "welcome to grub!", can't type or do anything. I booted in resuce, done chroot and an ran proxmox-boot-tool init /dev/nvme0n1p1 (here my ESP partition / efi partition reside). After that, on reboot, it fails say "No boot= argument...

Hello, I have some weird error in journalctl logs, looking over internet, there is no information about it. I am not sure what are they, should I be worried or just leave them. Jul 09 19:00:19 server vector[2479]: 2024-07-09T17:00:19.455338Z ERROR source{component_kind="source"...

Is there any other proper solution. @Momedo, what exactly steps you used here ? PS: I realize its old thread but I am looking something exactly like this.

Thanks, it worked.

Hi, Have simple requirements, after each backup job, we want notification, however, can't get on Gmal email as obviously to deliver mail to gmail / yahoo, need proper mail server. Hence used aws SES smtp mail account but still mails are going through postfix (as per syslog). Here what I did ...

Thanks @alexskysilk, I not interested in zfs only, I am more interested to know if local storage has to be used then which one is good ? Looks like CoW fs is not good for faster nvmes and ssds.

@alexskysilk, customer has no interest in underlying technology as long as it works. I tried to ask few providers, they are not really open to share their experience but what I have seen is that they don't have zfs. I never said I am customer, nor I am offering anything, I managing things...

I belive this discussion has been inconclusive. As have been doing, for HDD arra, will use zfs with arc limits and for nvmes / ssds, will go for soft raid with lvm thin. Ofcourse is there is need of centralized storage, will consider ceph.

tbh, I have learned from bitter experiences in past that only for HDDs based array, go for zfs. Freenas etc. uses zfs as they know most of the cluster will be hdd based/ spinning disks.

Yes, we can limit arc, could share your personal experience and what exactly `l2arc_noprefetch=1` does ?

Thanks @bbgeek17, whatever you said is true but this is also true that there are all kind of market and then there are customer for that. Unfortunately, this discussion is not about potential market and customers of non-aws / azure like hosts. I need to clarify, I am just managing servers, most...

Thanks for the link, I went through whole discussion and was informative. However, the inconsistency there in soft raid is not that common, can say from my experience where I have been looking after several soft raid PVE node, besides, in my use case, SLA is not an issue as long as there are...
