    Slight worry is setting in. The transaction is still running. It put an exclusive lock on everything LVM, and also prevents the volume from being mounted read-only. I never had trouble shrinking an LV before, but this is the first time it...

    @Johannes S , thanks for adding those threads. I knew they exist, but couldn't find the links immediately!

    Yes replication only works with zfs. You shouldn't combine it with HW raid though and shouldn't use RAIDZ for vm storage, see this writeup by UdoB for reference: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/fabu-can-i-use-zfs-raidz-for-my-vms.159923/ ZFS...

    If you want to use HW RAID, ZFS is off the charts. LVM is fine, especially if your current environment is on LVM as well. People love ZFS for the ease with which advanced features are available, such as checksumming, RAID, caching...

    Thanks again! pkill fstrim runtime less than a second, no output pct unlock 104 slight pauze, ok with no output PVE had a as stale mount of the volume in /var/lib/lxc/104/roofs, manually unmounted pve fsck 104 ran less than a minute, states...

    One way is to restore the backup via the CLi and give a specific size for the rootfs like this. Another way is to lie to the system by editing the size in the config file before creating the backup and then restoring it. As for the lock I'd try...

    wbk replied to the thread FC SAN cluster in proxmox.
    Hi n10ev, Welcome to the forums! While it's not my place to answer for nbaniks situation: if they're migrating from an existing VMWare deployment, the hardware is already in place. Replacing (high cost) fibre channel equipment with (lower...

    wbk reacted to Johannes S's post in the thread FC SAN cluster in proxmox with Like Like.
    Or Ubuntu since ProxmoxVE uses Debian userland and a Ubuntu kernel (with some modifications) as base. So if some hardware is supported by Ubuntu it most likely will work on ProxmoxVE too. In the end the kernel, not the userland is responsible for...

    wbk replied to the thread FC SAN cluster in proxmox.
    In addition to the answers to your specific question, seeing you joined a while back but did not post a lot here: for many "is ... supported" questions, it is good to realize that Proxmox runs on top of Debian. Even if Proxmox does not provide a...

    wbk replied to the thread Severe kernel panics are occurring.
    The screenshot is to small to easily read or copy/paste, so it may totally not be related, but not mentioned is everyone's nr 1 checkpoint (memtest), and what kind of memory you run. I suppose it's ECC (because Ryzen/ZFS), but Asus shouts...

    Hi mws, Welcome to the forums! As with many things, there is not one 'correct', and mostly 'it depends'. I've always been very happy LVM, and with thin volumes as well. ZFS is beckoning, but for better or worse, I have resisted the call...

    wbk replied to the thread MP on LXC is not coming through.
    Your post is a bit old, sorry for the late reply... Yes, mount the NFS on the host, and bind-mount in the container

    Shortly after I had the opportunity to log in and kick off the fstrim, than realized it would be handy to chain fsck: # pct fstrim 104 ^C # pct fstrim 104 && pct fsck 104 CT is locked (fstrim) It's nine hours later now. I realize that fsck...

    Oh, my bad, I mixed up your hostnames while zooming in and out of screenshots and trying to remember the names in the mean time. On pvebig: echo '10.201.3.215 pveraider' >> /etc/hosts and on pveraider echo '10.201.3.192 pvebig' >> /etc/hosts

    Hi Impact, Great! Thank you for mentioning, I was under the impression (as you probably guessed) that the LV itself was grow-only as well. I'm at the moment not able to test it right away, but I'll post feedback after I tried!
  • W
    I didn't read all of it but you can shrink thin volumes, just not the thin pool itself. Here's some outputs from when I demonstrated this to someone # lvresize -r -L 8G pve/vm-101-disk-0 File system ext4 found on pve/vm-101-disk-0. File...

    The following step was unexpectedly successful, I had expected to wait a day for 3 TB to be backed up, but to my surprise the backup was already finished. It had actually only processed data for the size of the file system, not for the size of...

    It seems more of a network (-configuration) issue, than BIOS/hardware. I wouldn't put my hosts in the 'example.com' domain, but it won't hurt in this case either I suppose. Some thoughts after seeing the actual error, 'hostname loockup...

    post the contents of /etc/network/interfaces for all 3 nodes. also double check each machine's hosts file and make sure they contain the same records for all 3 machines, and that they all match the output of hostname for each.
