    error fetching datastores - fingerprint '82:01...:BE:C0' not verified after adding SSDs

    Before addressing your questions I'd like to note that I've tried everything I could think of to assign a new fingerprint to the PBS server and always had to conclude that for unknown reasons the system insisted to verify the wrong fingerprint, i.e. the fingerprint of my other PBS instance on...

    error fetching datastores - fingerprint '82:01...:BE:C0' not verified after adding SSDs

    Thanks for replying. I'm using a strictly standard PBS install and am not using my own certificate. I did perform a fresh install on newly installed SSDs. How do I disable the PBS storage in the PVE web ui and re-enable it? Do you mean remove the storage and add it again? Will that not impact my...

    error fetching datastores - fingerprint '82:01...:BE:C0' not verified after adding SSDs

    I have added an SSD mirror as boot volume to my Proxmox server. Unfortunately I was forced to do a fresh install but the previous rpool, now renamed to lpool, is still available and is the backup target. I succeeded in resurrecting all CTs and VMs. There's a problem with PBS that I can't solve...

    Lost hdd spindown capability; not making progress

    I'm configuring a new server with 2 SSDs and 2 HDDs. The HDDs are only used once every 6 hours and I need them to spindown when not in use in order to save energy. Initially these drives were not configured as Proxmox storage. The server does not yet have any VMs or containers. To test spindown...

    Minimizing SSD wear through PVE configuration changes

    Stopping the first 2 services has a very significant (positive re: logging) impact. However, rather than stopping the services I'd like to redirect the logging but can't figure out how to do this. I didn't know about the final 2 services and will look into that. Thanks anyway.

    "pmxcfs" writing to disk all the time...

    Thanks. Does the "yes" refer to the first part of my question or the second?

    Did you ever succeed in redirecting rrdcached? Did you restart the service/reboot before you received the error message?

    Reducing rrdcached writes

    Nope; doesn't exist either. However, you put me on the right track. The correct path is /etc/default/rrdcached Thanks! EDIT: replaced 'rdd' with 'rrd' (typo)

    Reducing rrdcached writes

    /etc/defaults/rrdcached does not currently exist and Google shows only this document. Is this a typo? Can you please provide the correct filename?

    Minimizing SSD wear through PVE configuration changes

    I'm configuring my new ProxMox server and want to reduce unnecessary wear on my SSD root mirror. I've done a lot of searches and although it's easy enough to find some hints, I can't find a comprehensive tutorial to achieve this. What have a done so far: redirected /var/log to a separate HDD...
