Hi Everyone,
Every few months someone asks some version of "why can't I use LVM-thin on my shared SAN LUN?" Thick LVM works fine as shared storage, but has no native snapshots. LVM-thin has snapshots but is local-only... it's natural to wonder...
Da OpenmediaVault als lxc nicht supported wird (siehe: https://forum.openmediavault.org/index.php?thread/51217-trying-to-access-additional-drives-via-proxmox-with-lxc/ ): Entweder OMV als VM aufsetzen oder ein beliebiges Linux aus ProxmoxVEs...
Interesting, thanks a lot for filing the bug!
Side note, since the post's a bit old, future readers may be interested in using the maintained fork of that particular TrueNAS plugin: https://github.com/boomshankerx/proxmox-truenas
Also, TrueNAS...
What circumstances require this but don't allow to setup at least a VPN? People who are not able to use VPN shouldn't use Virtualization in the first place.
This won't help if somebody uses an exploit to break out of a vm or lxc and afterwards...
Hi Everyone,
As Proxmox VE has grown quite substantially since I began using it, I thought I'd blend together my Wikipedia editing with my in-depth knowledge of the software and my general awareness of the company behind it. Having received the...
You may want to take a second and reconsider what that means.
While using mirroring or parity/ec creates disk level fault tolerance in a storage solution, REDUNDANCY is a function of system level fault tolerance; if redundancy is a mission...
I absolutely would not run something like that without redundancy, but getting the redundancy from zfs's raid is better in a lot of ways than getting it from dedicated hardware. It is more flexible, and smarter. For example when rebuilding...
I'm going to tell you what most people won't -- you're doing it wrong. Unless you like being unhappy, you might have to change your expectations.
Proxmox is based on Debian with a custom Ubuntu kernel, yes. But it's not really designed to run...
The required capacity depends more on the total used data, change rate, retention policy, and deduplication/compression ratio than on the number of VMs.
The official PBS system requirements are a good starting point...
The design is what worries me. Disks owned by a dummy VMID and moved between VMs by editing configs through the API. Clever, but it does not hold up when things fail.
Snapshots: that endpoint is a copy, not a snapshot. It won't give you a chain...
Der glibc-Resolver cached halt nix. pvestatd pollt den PBS-Storage alle 10s, und bei jedem Connect gibts ne frische Auflösung, A und AAAA getrennt. Macht pro Node schon grob 17k am Tag, mit zwei Nodes plus Backup-Jobs und Verify bist du schnell...
Short answer: PBS won't tell you about backups the way you want, but it does know about them. Just not in the notification system.
Everything below is from my lab, so swap in your own host, user and datastore. The calls need a login ticket...
The usual approach for a small box with a single NIC is this: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#_default_configuration_using_a_bridge
If your setup differs then you need to describe the differences in detail - to allow...
Regarding swap following posts by Kernel developer Chris Down are worth a read:

The basic gist is that even if you...
Not in the GUI, no. I checked on 4.2.5 and it is still one group at a time. The Content list is a tree (namespace, group, snapshot, file) rather than a grid with checkboxes, so there is no multi-select for a bulk action to hang off...
50% is fine. This size is just the max size, it isn't reserving 50% of ram in case you write a file to /tmp, it will use memory for files as they are written, and free the memory again when they are deleted. The size is the limit where the...
