    wbk replied to the thread [SOLVED] Get my VM back.
    Hi digamman, Welcome to the forums! That must have been quite a scare, good that your storage survived! Some questions: Why did you need to reinstall Proxmox after losing the network? I guess your original install was on LVM on nvme0n1p3...

    wbk replied to the thread Errors when creating or deleting a VM snapshot.
    Hi Balcony7199, Welcome to the forums! What filesystem is your VM on, and what is the storage layout? In the mean time, how pressing is the issue? Do you still have access to the VM, or is it locked in turned off state? Do you have a backup...

    wbk posted the thread [SOLVED] HELP! Cancel lvresize ? --> just wait .... in Proxmox VE: Installation and configuration.
    Hi all, Sorry for crossposting My main container (mail, messaging, calendar, phone backup) is offline (and has been for some 10 hours) due to resizing the LV from 3,6 TB to 0,4 TB. This is an LV on a thin pool; it has previously been filled...

    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...

    wbk replied to the thread two node setup with local Dell R600 series storage with replication.
    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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!

    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...
