    Migrate 7-node PVE 4.4 cluster to a new subnet

    We need to change all IP addresses. I was thinking maybe we get away with it if we change them at once, but since i decided it is not worth the risk of getting a non functional cluster (we need HA, live migration, one-node management) and unscheduled vm downtime. So we will take the safer route...

    Migrate 7-node PVE 4.4 cluster to a new subnet

    I was aware if the fact that you cannot change one node's config in a cluster. The question was if we change the configs (changes will be applied after reboot) and then take the WHOLE cluster offline at once then start it up in the new location what would happen. I could mess with config files...

    Migrate 7-node PVE 4.4 cluster to a new subnet

    Hello, We have a 7-node PVE 4.4 cluster and we have to move it into another subnet. Can this be done by just changing the IP addresses in the web interface, shut down the machines, change the cables for the management interface (the links to the data storage are not changed) and start them up...

    Questions about backup names and vm ids

    Hi, i test a deployment of PVE and i have a few questions. Question 1: I see that the backups are named vzdump-qemu-VMID-date-time.vma.gz (for gzip format). This naming scheme is problematic because PVE tends to "fill the gaps" when vms are deleted. If we have a vm, back it up then delete it...

    Determine system name from backup lzo

    For uncompressed vma files: vma config filename.vma For vma.gz fies is like this: zcat file.vma.gz | vma config - Probably something like it for lzo too (probably using lzop). Basically you have to uncompress it on the fly and pass it to vma config. Using it to reveal all names in the...

    online fstrim in ext4 for local qcow2 image

    TRIM inside the vm will overwrite the unused parts with zeroes, but you will have to compact the qcow2 image from outside (by creating a copy for example), it does not shrink by itself.

    Proxmox 4.0 "Use tablet for pointer" doesnt work at vm start

    Hi, It seems that the "Use tablet for pointer" is not activated when the virtual machine is started (in the HTML5 vnc client the mouse cursor is not in sync). If its toggled on-off after start it will remain that way even if the guest is restarted. I use spice/qxl video because Spice works way...
