UdoB replied to the thread [SOLVED] NFS network configuration.There is no dedicated "master" as all nodes are equal. (When you look under "Datacenter --> HA Status" you can notice that the shown "master" node will vary, depending on the current availability.) Shared storage must be reachable/usable on each... -
@r7Y2 Is it required for the remote nodes to be part of the same cluster? It might be an option to have a three-node main cluster and two stand-alone nodes in addition, depends on your setup and usecase of course.

We probably wrote our replies at the same time, hence you missed my explanation regarding that issue. But as I said in my second post, the remote site doesn't have an independent second physical link, hence no benefit in adding a second network...

Given I currently manually do an rsync to another drive, anything would be better than that. :D I don't really write a lot of data and photos/documents are manually backed up to Backblaze every so often. I don't think I have data that needs to be...

@brightrgb the docs are a little light on detail. We consolidated some info and provide a Python and Bash example in the hookscripts folder here: https://github.com/Weehooey/proxmox-lab-notes

Here is an example of a hookscipt that shuts down VM 100 (if it is running) before starting and starts VM 100 when it shuts down (and the host is not shutting down). #!/bin/bash if [ "$2" == 'pre-start' ] then if /usr/sbin/qm status "100" |...

Thanks guys for clarification. After having activating subscription and modifying the repo settings, I was able to install said package and thus run an arm64 guest. Thanks for your valuable support.

UdoB reacted to ca_masch's post in the thread Is there a way to backup the PVE Host to the Proxmox Backup Server (PBS)? with
Like.
I faced the same question and built a little tool called TheReaniamtor for this purpose. It pulls the backups of the host configurations graphically via the API/SSH so that you don't have to do everything manually on the console. The Reanimator -
UdoB replied to the thread Cluster with different number of links.Just use a simple USB-NIC for that second ring. This (personal view: USB-devices in general) is usually not recommended, but a second ring using sub-optimal devices is probably better than none. Of course both connections should (hopefully) be...

UdoB replied to the thread SSD wear with ZFS compared to BTRFS.I won't fight this. This discussion is interesting, though I did not verify their statements: https://github.com/kdave/btrfs-progs/issues/760

UdoB replied to the thread [SOLVED] PBS upgrade format is nice and clean.PBS 4 is on Trixie / Debian 13 PVE 8.4 is Bookworm / Debian 12 So... just upgrade and you get the new apt output "for free" ;-)

UdoB reacted to Impact's post in the thread [SOLVED] PBS upgrade format is nice and clean with Like.
Check apt -v for the version difference. You should not use apt upgrade, by the way: https://lists.proxmox.com/pipermail/pve-devel/2025-March/068874.html

Ergänzend zu IsThingOn: Der PBS setzt für seine ganze Magie keine speziellen Features des Dateisystems heraus, man kann darum so ziemlich jedes Dateisystem nehmen, was von Linux unterstützt wird und Posix-Semantiken unterstützt (also zfs, btrfs...

Du vermischt hier zwei verschiedene Themen. Das eine ist ZFS dedup. Die dedup Table kann heutzutage auf svdev (also SSD) ausgelagert werden und muss nicht mehr im RAM sein. Das andere ist dedup mit PBS. Das braucht so ziemlich gar nix an RAM...

UdoB replied to the thread [SOLVED] NFS network configuration.Of cause there are multiple ways to set this up and there are definitely more details than would fit into one post. One possible quick-n-dirty approach: take a new unused switch (or use VLANs) connect one NIC on each PVE node here connect the...
-
That's surely an option, I personally would prefer to use ZFS features (like the bitrot-protection and compression)...
-
If you renew your hardware anyhow I would consider to have even faster networks like 25G or even 100G (depending on your budget) to have some room for growth. @Falk R. mentioned several times that for new setups he usually go with 100G if his...

UdoB replied to the thread All Network inquiries are filtered from my Provider.Thank you for the good reply. Unfortunately I can see anything wrong here, sorry. Can you compare the output of a "traceroute 8.8.8.8" from a machine that works with this pve? Did you enable (and limit) the PVE internal firewall? (I have...

Hello, some information is missing from your post: What kind of storage discs are you using? How is your external storage setup (mirror,hw raid etc)? RAIDZ (especially on hdds) is not suitable for hosting VMs but might be ok for the operating...

UdoB replied to the thread All Network inquiries are filtered from my Provider."ping www.proxmox.com" is not a good choice for a test. It does not answer to my pings too: ~$ ping -c1 -W 2 www.proxmox.com PING www.proxmox.com (212.224.123.69) 56(84) bytes of data. --- www.proxmox.com ping statistics --- 1 packets...
