    HA Migration issues when VM has local storage

    Sorry for that, but It seems you didn’t understand my point either. No need to convince me about anything: use bugzilla to explain your use case to the devs so they can decide what should be improved. I know how PVE's HA works, it's ok for me, even if it's not perfect for every single use case...

    HA Migration issues when VM has local storage

    I don't agree with that statement: It's not a bug, it's how HA has always worked and requires shared storage (i.e. Ceph, NFS, CIFS, SAN, local ZFS + replication) [1]. As HA is right now, it's fully admin responsibility to check the systems configuration (i.e. storage type or limit HA...

    PBS Performance improvements (enterprise all-flash)

    Don't know what are you referring to. Do you have a link to the change you mention? Also, resurrecting a year+ old post without providing details isn't that useful. In the mean time there has been improvements for both restores and verification tasks and you don't mention what kind of...

    CEPH Erasure Coded Configuration: Review/Confirmation

    This alone doesn't provide enough information: how many OSD do you have in each of your hosts? Are they full disks or did you use partitions in each disk?

    Ceph: High Latency on NVMe SSD

    16 consumer NVMe drives. Any write Ceph does is sync and any drive without PLP will show high latency and, once its cache fills, poor sequential performance. Keep in mind that you have to write to 3 disks and besides data itself it has to write to the RocksDB of each OSD to keep track of the...

    Previous chunks don't seem to be used for new backups

    After a local sync from the namespace where PBS02 stored the synced snapshots to the namespace where PVE stores it's backups, now PVE only transfers changed data and in most cases even uses the existing dirty-map (I suspect dirty-map can be reused if a backup to the "new" encrypted namespace was...

    Previous chunks don't seem to be used for new backups

    This is what I was missing here. Yes, they are in a new, empty namespace. Now that I think it again makes sense as there is no "list of snapshots with their list of chunks" to compare to and help PBS decide before hand if a chunk should be transferred or not. Will do a local sync to the new...

    Previous chunks don't seem to be used for new backups

    I've had some bad luck this time with a broken PBS server. This is the sequence of events: - Cluster PVE does it's backups to PBS01 (v3.4.4) for nearly two years. - PBS02 (v4.1.1) in a remote location syncs backups from PBS01. This has been working for like a year. It's on version 4.1.1 for at...

    Snapshot as volume chain for file level storage, use cases?

    I'm fully aware about the usefulness of snapshots as volume chains for LVM and I am about not needing it on any file based storage. That's not what I'm asking. My question is what is the use case and motivation to use snapshots as volume chains on file based storage when there are proven...

    change proxmox host ip post install cli

    That script doesn't change the IP on any of the needed files, just on the network configuration and doesn't really add anything to what you can do by hand or via webUI. Don't use it.

    change proxmox host ip post install cli

    Change the entry on /etc/hosts too and restart pve-proxy and pvecluster services (or reboot host). Details here [1]. Remember this works if host isn't in a cluster, which probable isn't as it's a single host. [1] https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Renaming_a_PVE_node

    [SOLVED] Hard Disk + Network missing after Upgrade of Machine Version

    Just stumbled on this. PVE9 with QEMU 10.1 deprecates VM machine versions older than 6 years [1]. You will have to change the machine version on the hardware of the VM to be >=6, both for 440fx or Q35. This implies that a new virtual motherboard will be used and guest OS will require...

    ZFS rpool isn't imported automatically after update from PVE9.0.10 to latest PVE9.1 and kernel 6.17 with viommu=virtio

    Definitely not the same issue, even if the symptom is the same. I remember having somewhat similar issue on some Dell long ago (AFAIR it was when PVE7.0 came out) and enabling all of X2APIC, IOMMU and SRIOV on BIOS + BIOS update solved it at the time.

    ZFS rpool isn't imported automatically after update from PVE9.0.10 to latest PVE9.1 and kernel 6.17 with viommu=virtio

    I though it would be related to nested virtualization / virtio vIOMMU. Haven't seen any issue with bare metal yet. Can you manually import the pool and continue boot once disks are detected (zpool import rpool)?

    Any news on lxc online migration?

    For reference, https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/proxmox-ve-8-4-released.164821/page-2#post-762577 CRIU doesn't seem to be powerful / mature enough to be used as an option and IMHO seems that Proxmox would have to devel a tool for live migrating an LXC, something that no one has done yet and...
