    Proxmox and PBS - "starting first sync" - local vm dump dir

    Sorry for the late reply. pveversion -v proxmox-ve: 6.3-1 (running kernel: 5.4.106-1-pve) pve-manager: 6.3-6 (running version: 6.3-6/2184247e) pve-kernel-5.4: 6.3-8 pve-kernel-helper: 6.3-8 pve-kernel-5.4.106-1-pve: 5.4.106-1 pve-kernel-5.4.101-1-pve: 5.4.101-1 pve-kernel-5.4.78-2-pve...

    Veeam Backup in LXC's and VM's

    Has anyone here managed to get backups working in LXC's? And by backup, I don't mean just doing a filesystem backup. If not, I am not sure how good the path exclusion is, I have loads of mount points.

    Proxmox and PBS - "starting first sync" - local vm dump dir

    So, PBS was added under data center -> storage A backup request was made for an LXC and because of mount points it does suspend mode, I found that all the backups were doing the usual vzdump tmpdir and then sending it to PBS. I couldn't seem to get any VM's to backup either: INFO: starting new...

    Container w/ mount point snapshots

    I realise that running Proxmox Backup server with LXC's is a little pointless because mountpoints make me use suspend mode, slowing down the entire backup....... Is this still being looking into? I'd like snapshots for LXC's with mountpoints

    Proxmox and PBS - "starting first sync" - local vm dump dir

    it takes about 1 hour/1.5 hours to backup currently, and the first step is putting the entire image in the Proxmox tmpdir/vzdump dir - this is taking over 45/55 minutes, and then... after the tmpdir/vzdump dir , it should copy/"increment" the backup. However, it doesn't seem much faster than...

    modprobe: FATAL: Module dattobd not found in directory /lib/modules/5.4.101-1-pve

    Hi. Using an LXC, I can't seem to get this working? I get modprobe: FATAL: Module dattobd not found in directory /lib/modules/5.4.101-1-pve

    LXC MergerFS, SnapRaid

    I prefer to stay away from ZFS because of the expense. It's a little bit - but not in certain situations. No clue what this means

    LXC MergerFS, SnapRaid

    Works fine with MergerFS - I am yet to add SnapRaid into the mix.

    [SOLVED] modprobe fuse - LXC

    Hmm. I missed that. In any case, I installed MergerFS on Proxmox used, used an LXC to mount the folder and did Samba/NFS from it as a work around. Thanks.

    [SOLVED] modprobe fuse - LXC

    I wasn't able to run MergerFS because my LXC reports: "fuse: device not found, try 'modprobe fuse' first" modprobe: FATAL: Module fuse not found in directory /lib/modules/5.4.101-1-pve https://askubuntu.com/questions/450570/modprobe-fuse-returns-module-fuse-not-found apt-get install...

    LXC MergerFS, SnapRaid

    Hi. Has anyone successfully setup MergerFS and SnapRaid on an LXC? I'm hoping to have two disks mounted on an LXC. It will also have /mnt/disk1 /mnt/disk2, /mnt/storage and /mnt/parity1 The idea is to multiple disks shown as one. Most people do this with VM's and LXC's, but Proxmox LXC's aren't...

    [SOLVED] Can LXC's have LVM?

    Basically, I have two mount points on my LXC and the size of the data exceeds 1 disk, so I'd like to spread it over two disks of equal size. I'm not sure if this is possible, is it? The only option I can think of is ZFS (I haven't touched that at all, and can be pricey), or changing to a VM and...

    DAS - NFS alternative to network share HDD

    Not likely to happen - but thanks. Isn't it easier to remount the disk as a NFS storage backend? (currently it's a directory which explains why NFS exporting a dir isn't working)

    DAS - NFS alternative to network share HDD

    Probably I'll try LXC/host for Samba. Yeah, I have NFS setup for other disks, but the disk I want to share over NFS is already added as a directory. Anyway I can do both (keep as a directory and work under NFS)?

    DAS - NFS alternative to network share HDD

    I haven't seemingly been able to get the HDD to be NFS share in the datacenter storage area. It's already added as a directory (the disk). Manually adding the /mnt/pve/hddname to /etc/exports (for NFS) doesn't help share it. Would Samba be an LXC? If I use a VM and pass through the disk, it...

    DAS - NFS alternative to network share HDD

    For the most part I've used USB HDD's and set them up available on NFS on Proxmox. I technically haven't tried to do the same for my DAS connected HDD, (which I think, probably won't work). Any ideas on how I can get my DAS HDD on a network share on Windows? Someone briefly mentioned Samba to...

    VM creation failed and can't unlock/delete

    Yes, usually if I can't delete a drive, I attach it to another VM, detach the disk and then remove it that way. In this case, it's working as expected, so, that's good. Thanks.

    VM creation failed and can't unlock/delete

    I created a VM and it became interrupted, I think because the NFS behaved weirdly and I can't unlock/delete the VM. It doesn't exist apparently but I can see it stuck in this state. Any ideas how I can remove it? I also see a VM drive that I can't delete on the storage because it's linked to...
