    vzdump errors with bindfs mounts

    damn, I find myself with a similar issue but with a cifs mount inside the CT, I can't find a way to make the backup not attempt to read it.... I tried to exclude it with a .pxar file, I tried exclude-path on the backup job, I tried a backup script that would mount a parent directory to some...

    [SOLVED] Proxmox and OPNsense - Network speed issue

    Thanks @vl4di99 for the confirmation. At least I know now there's no alternative for me but to wait for opnsense to improve virtio performance or switch to a hardware switch with NIC passthrough foregoing any Linux bridge benefits.

    Running keepalived in lxc container

    did someone find a solution ? I struggle with keepalived as I want to enable `lvs_sync_daemon eth0 VRRP1` but this requires the kernel module ip_vs, which I enabled on the host, but keepalived still looks for it in /lib/modules and I'm unable to pass the /lib/modules to the CT, it always fails...

    Passthrough USB device to LXC keeping the path /dev/bus/usb/00x/00y

    I really had no issues with passing the entire bus but I seem to have less devices connected than you. I'd try to see if passing the whole bus but having only the Coral plugged in works for you, if yes that's exactly what I have so no more luck. I suspect it might not work for you if you weren't...

    [SOLVED] Proxmox and OPNsense - Network speed issue

    Hello zhihuiyuze, I'm facing similar issues as you, low throughput in opnsense using virtio on vmbr. But I'm unable di use your settings above as it breaks network connectivity for me... To confirm, would you please kindly share your /etc/network/interfaces file here so I could try to...

    Virtio performance and offloading

    Nope, never dreamed about that, just trying to achieve 10G networking on the same motherboard instead of the current less than gigabit performance I'm getting. An actual E100 physical gigabit NIC is faster than my current virtio setup, I think my goal of being faster is achievable as explained I...

    Virtio performance and offloading

    Hello, I have a virtualized opnsense router and can't seem to manage to get decent performance while routing packets between vlans. On PvE I defined vmbr0 auto vmbr0 iface vmbr0 inet manual bridge-ports bond0 bridge-stp on bridge-fd 0 bridge-vlan-aware yes...

    ZFS advice ?

    Hi all. I'm looking for help as I'm new to zfs. I have a 20TB HDD that I will reformat with zfs and aim at storing some VM disks and backups as well as my data that is nicely split in directories like video, photo, music, documents, docker-volumes... Right now all are under...

    Help choosing filesystem

    Hello, I have a small homelab cluster running a single HA VM for home-assistant as my lights depends on it's zigbee2mqtt plugin.Besides that one VM, I'm mostly running CTs but nothing of critical importance. I had a ceph setup but on my commodity hardware and gigabit network it's dead slow even...

    Cluster of 2 not for HA

    PvE host is on my servers VLAN separate from my Clients VLAN where my NAS lives because historical reasons and poor discovery on windows/samba part. So servers don't need a router to work together, but to get to internet or to provide services to clients then yes router is needed and the router...

    Cluster of 2 not for HA

    I expect to leave the second node off for the majority of the time, it's going to be powered on when I'm away (home assistant will schedule that) to keep a remote access in case something breaks. It already happened, my PSU of course waited for me to be away on holiday to fail last year...Cheap...

    Cluster of 2 not for HA

    My understanding was that a node will not start any VM unless quorum is achieved, in my case the impact is that from cold start, if I start only one of the 2 nodes it will not start the VM/CT that are set to start on boot as it doesn't have quorum. I will test that anyway I now have an unused 3...

    Cluster of 2 not for HA

    TLDR: is there a "clean" way to not require quorum or always achieve quorum with a single node? Clustering and HA is nice but in my homelab setup, there is no way to achieve network filesystem with reasonable performance at achievable price and power usage. I do have a cluster of 3 nodes with...

    Random Networking issues

    Hello, I'm facing some strange random networking issues with LXCs on my PVE cluster not able to communicate. For instance, sometimes, 10.0.10.51 which is a LXC will not be able to communicate with 10.0.1.23 which is one of my switches. When this occurs, I see no trafic at all coming in on the...
