    Least privileges option between PDM & PVE/PBS

    Hi all, First, I wanted to thank the Proxmox Team for their work on PDM, as this tool will certainly help us to manage our multiple clusters / PBS across datacentres. Now, I'm playing with this in the lab, and was wondering what were the mandatory permissions in order for PDM to work? As I'm...

    VM fails to boot after upgrade to PVE 9

    Bonjour all, I've upgraded a lab node to PVE9 today. Everything went well until it didn't. This lab setup uses a virtual router for its networking. On reboot, the VM failed to boot with this error : WARN: no physical CD-ROM available, ignoring kvm: -blockdev...

    Removing an NFS Share in the GUI should unmount the share on the whole cluster

    Hi all, We've (finally) decom'd an old PBS which also had an NFS share from ancient (PVE 5.X) times. To my surprise, however, my PVE backup scripts started failing (well, after I remembered those existed and switched them to the new PBS). They were stuck on the /mnt/pve/ directory. In here...

    PBS Expected speeds and performances

    Hi all, Following https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/hard-drive-strategy.137806/, We've managed to convince the bean counters to allow us a bit of money to get backup servers. Now, the configuration I got is a bit different from the suggested configs in the previous threads. For now, we've...

    Migration between Clusters on different network

    Hi All, Happy new year! Best wishes to everyone. I have been trying PDM to see how it could fit our proxmox deployments. So far, I have 3 VMs, two PVE and one PDM. Everything seems to be working fine, but it appears nodes need to be able to talk to each other to migrate VMs. Is there a proxy...

    Side effects of disabled PBS account to access datastore on PVE

    Hi all, We've (finally) got a long-term storage, centralised, last resort PBS where all the other PBS go and dump their backups into. I want to add a Read-only account of which every cluster will have a token of, so that in case of a disaster recovery process, I can restore backups from this...

    Weird VEEAM Behaviour on Windows VM depending on machine type

    Hi Bbgeek17, This is planned, this forum post is mainly so that the poor soul finding themselves in the same spot has a workaround.

    Weird VEEAM Behaviour on Windows VM depending on machine type

    Hi all, A bit of a weird one here, leaving this here in case anyone finds themselves in the same boat as we did. Colleague installed a VEEAM backup on a clean installation of Windows Server 2019, wanted to add a Dell DD6400 Data domain as a repository. This was already working on another VEEAM...

    Total cluster failure in the lab

    Yes, that's the idea. A complete corosync should in theory never happen, but I've learned in this line of work that you don't say "If it happens" but "when it happens". So testing out in the lab is the best way to prepare for unplanned network dissasembly at 4am on a saturday :D

    Total cluster failure in the lab

    Well, this didn't last long, as the watchdogs did their job... The whole thing rebooted and decided it wanted to behave again. Cluster is now up and running again. Weird behaviour, though I kind of expected it before unplugging the whole thing.

    Total cluster failure in the lab

    Hey all, Currently testing CEPH and Proxmox HA on a multi datacenter configuration (with black fiber, so sub ms latency.) I tried to recreate the worst scenario possible : what if all nodes lose the corosync layer? This should never happen, but that's what the lab is for. I'm using Proxmox...

    Alright, so sadly I gave up, created a remote of, well, myself, and that worked out great. Cheers

    Cannot select source datastore in local sync

    None. The error you see in my screenshot is me trying to access an old decom. remote accidentally.

    Cannot select source datastore in local sync

    Hello, I can see the HTTP 200 "datastore" request to the API : The datastore is there just fine, but nothing in the GUI. No error either in the console or in /var/log/api/access.log

    Cannot select source datastore in local sync

    Hey all, I'm trying to clone some backups to a new datastore the "good" way (using local sync instead of copying files and forgetting to chown them). However, I can't seem to select the source datastore : The source datastore menu is empty, and I can't select anything. Permission wise, my...
