    Proxmox VE 8 Booting Stuck on some systems

    I recently upgraded Proxmox VE from 7.x to 8.x alongside a Debian Bullseye -> Debian Bookworm Upgrade. On some systems however, it gets stuck at boot. The only thing I can see over Remote Management / IPMI is, using Kernel 6.5.11-7-pve: Any ideas on how to debug further ? Kernel...

    PCIe Bifurcation and PCIe address change

    That's unfortunate. I solved this the "easy" way by bifurcating the PCIe slot to x8x8 instead of x4x4x4x4. This way, since 2 devices are installed (in M.2 slot #1 and #3, so that each falls in a separate x8 slot), no "empty" places are left. The "trick" appears to work fine across several...

    PCIe Bifurcation and PCIe address change

    I successfully managed to setup PCIe Bifurcation on my Supermicro X9DRi-LN4F+, since I am using a NVME Expander (ASUS Hyper M.2 X16 V2) for 2 x NVME drives in striped configuration (planning to destroy & recreate as mirror for safety reasons !). The NVME Expander is *not* passed through any...

    Proxmox VE 6.2 Randomly Rebooting

    Thank you for your reply, Richard. The system runs fine with kernel from the 5.3.x series. Now up since 5 days and still going strong. Something is definitively wrong with the kernel in the 5.4.x series. Why would the issue be caused by saltstack? You think the salt minion is causing a kernel...

    Proxmox VE 6.2 Randomly Rebooting

    For some weird reason my recently installed "new" NAS is randomly rebooting (approximatively 1-2 times each hour). System: - Supermicro X10SLL-F - Intel Xeon E3-1270 V3 - 4 x 8GB Unbuffered ECC DDR3 - 2 x Crucial MX100 256GB - 1 x IBM Exp ServeRAID M1015 (LSI 9220-8i) -> PCI-e pass-through to...

    PCI Passthrough Selection with Identical Devices

    IMPORTANT: see EDIT #3 as to why this script doesn't work. I modified a bit the script from @radensb to be more dynamic and support several devices and separate the script from the configuration. My main motivation is to install the script using Saltstack on every PVE host. Then on each PVE...

    [TUTORIAL] Cluster made of permanent + adhoc nodes

    Hi, I wanted to share my bits with you concerning my home lab cluster made of: - Permanent on-state machines - Ad-hoc machines (in order to reduce power consumption) Of course, besides the "usual" problems of voting (solved by assigning a much higher number of votes to the permanently-on...

    Issue with chattr inside LXC container

    I will gladly provide any information that could help solve this issue but I'm not sure what I can give more as information ... I am just forcing a folder to be immutable with the "+i" flag. I don't want the system to be able to write to that folder without the ramdisk (tmpfs) being mounted...

    Issue with chattr inside LXC container

    I recently started playing with Proxmox VE 5.1.3 and so far my impressions are good. Due to some performance overhead of KVM for a distcc compile server, I tried LXC and I get bare metal performance essentially. The only problem is that, in order to avoid filling the local disk, I want to...
