Hi,

I've put different options in /etc/pve/datacenter.cfg but it doesn't seem to apply.

For example, I put language: de and reload the webinterface or use private navigation, but it's still English.

Also, I've put bwlimit: move=2,default=2,migration=2 in the file but still it keeps taking 1000Mbit to my shared storage when I move disks.

How can I apply the new settings in datacenter.cfg?

Hi

Yes because you have to log out reload and then default is lang is de.

Also, I've put bwlimit: move=2,default=2,migration=2 in the file but still it keeps taking 1000Mbit to my shared storage when I move disks.
Maybe you have made an override on in the storage config?
 
Hi,

I've logged out many times and used different computers / complete browser refresh / private navigation.

There is no configuration in the /etc/pve/storage.cfg other than normal:

nfs: zfs01
export /data/proxmox
path /mnt/pve/zfs01
server 10.1.1.81
content images
maxfiles 1
options vers=3

dir: local
disable
path /var/lib/vz
content images
maxfiles 0

nfs: zfs02
export /data/proxmox
path /mnt/pve/zfs02
server 10.1.1.82
content iso,images
maxfiles 1
options vers=3
 
Tested this on a different cluster, installed 2 weeks ago. Same problem, it doesn't listen to the datacenter.cfg settings
 
I can't reproduce this here and you are the first what report that problem.
