    Windows 11 VM suspended after backup job with "stop" mode

    Hi, I've noticed that recently, backups of my Windows 11 VM (stop mode) started leaving it in a suspended state. There aren't any related logs in the journal from what I can tell, and the VM can be booted/woken up with keyboard input in the VNC console. I've attached Windows system logs from...

    [SOLVED] Proxmox VNC behind HAProxy

    I'm sure an SSH proxy exists, haven't played with any. Again though, I'd rather not do this due to the security risk involved. A VPN is easy to set up and for me at least, 99% of the time I administer my lab from the same machines, so running a VPN client on them isn't an issue.

    [SOLVED] Proxmox VNC behind HAProxy

    You'd be better off setting up a VPN like Wireguard or OpenVPN. SSH to Proxmox hosts and MySQL DBs shouldn't be plainly exposed publicly anyways. Regarding the question though, HAProxy is primarily an HTTP proxy, TCP/UPD support is limited.

    Storage recommendations for home workload?

    Right, I forgot to post an update on this thread. Before deciding on which SSDs I would buy, I first spent a short while with ZFS on a single brand new MX500. Within that period, it got about 15-20% (IIRC) wearout, an absolutely insane amount, increasing about 1% every week or two. The workload...

    Datastore synced with Rclone broken?

    Oh yea I failed to mention I ran it afterwards without that flag and everything was marked as corrupt. It's definitely been synced successfully, at least according to RClone. I wouldn't have been surprised by corrupted chunks, since synced data is stored on a single consumer-grade SSD (albeit...

    Datastore synced with Rclone broken?

    I'm trying to set up a remote sync to a friend's RPI for my Proxmox Backup Server. I've been using this script that uses Rclone with an encrypted remote (Crypt) on a schedule: #!/bin/bash # A simple script to back up PBS to Crypt remote _lock_file=/root/.tertiary_backup.lock...

    Used memory much greater than what is used by processes

    Hello, Ever since I've cloned my old PBS's SSD to a new one and moved it to newer hardware, I've noticed that "used" RAM (putting aside ARC) is significantly greater than what it should be when adding up that which the processes use. root@pbs-0:~# ps aux | awk '{print $6/1024 " MB\t\t"...

    High number of major page faults on PVE and PBS nodes running ZFS

    Hi, Recently I set up a monitoring stack in my virtualized K8s cluster (Prometheus, Grafana) and set up node exporters on many VMs/nodes, including my PVE and PBS nodes. Not soon after I started getting alerts regarding major page faults (hundreds over half a minute, sometimes every half hour...

    [SOLVED] Proxmox VNC behind HAProxy

    It seems to have been a hardware fault of the HAProxy host's SSD. My bad for not realizing that! For anyone reading this in the future, the cookie related settings are the only important bits to making the web UI and noVNC work.

    [SOLVED] Proxmox VNC behind HAProxy

    Hi, I'm trying to set up HAProxy (v2.6.12) as a reverse proxy for 2 Proxmox VE servers (v8.1.3). The web UI works fine, but connections to noVNC consoles break randomly, sometimes every ~15 seconds, sometimes every minute or so, sometimes 10 times over the course of 2 seconds. It's incredibly...

    Storage recommendations for home workload?

    I see, that makes sense. I did some deeper research and found conflicting experiences regarding write amplification. Guess it really depends on the particular workload. I might be able to test my workflow's I/O activity on a server I'm planning on setting up soon. It'll have one MX500 (single...

    Storage recommendations for home workload?

    Aside from endurance, I don't see how it's worth it to invest in an enterprise SSD for a very light workload like mine (I'm still learning all these technologies after all). Also, the enterprise SSDs I can buy in my region (D3-S4510, D3-S4520, PM893, Micron 5400 Pro, D3-S4610) perform about the...

    Storage recommendations for home workload?

    Hi, I'm planning on building a new Proxmox server for my home environment (hosting a NAS, K8s, websites, Minecraft, DBs, home networking, etc.). Regarding VM/CT/NAS storage, I'm not too sure how I should go about it. I was thinking either: 2x 1TB NVME SSDs (ZFS mirror) used as the boot volume...

    Debian VM stuck at "cdrom: Unform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20"

    Hi, While working on my final school project, I've been trying to use specific versions of all the software included. Now I'm down to Proxmox. Unfortunately, since I'm installing it on top of Debian due to issues with my network card, I would need to version pin over a 100 packages which are...
