    After update to 3.2: VM crashing during backup

    This just happened on a production box that's been running 3.2 for quite awhile. Backup was to NFS mounted USB drive. These backups happen everynight, so it's something pretty random. Gerald

    After update to 3.2: VM crashing during backup

    Just got the same thing on a 3.1-43 install, using local 'directory' storage. Syslog shows this: Mar 17 07:35:37 proxmoxvm pvedaemon[219569]: <root@pam> successful auth for user 'root@pam' Mar 17 07:36:30 proxmoxvm pvedaemon[235617]: <root@pam> starting task...

    CRITICAL - Move Disk Issues

    Anybody? I'm trying to move my disks of the iSCSI and onto the NFS. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I'd say 1 out of 100 tries to move works. Ugh.

    CRITICAL - Move Disk Issues

    Hi, I have NFS and iSCSI storage. I've slowly been moving off of iSCSI onto he NFS (better bandwidth to storage, better speed). Last night, something weird happened. Basically, all my storage temporarily disconnected, both iSCSI and NFS. I'm suspecting a switch issue. The problem is, I can...

    [SOLVED] Linux NFS or GlusterFS Server not creating sparse files

    Re: Linux NFS Server not creating sparse files This is not a Linux NFS issue (or a GlusterFS issue) at all. It's the underlying filesystem issue. If you use NFS or GlusterFS on top of XFS, XFS needs special mount options to create qcow2 files quickly. Here is my fstab: /dev/md2...

    [SOLVED] Linux NFS or GlusterFS Server not creating sparse files

    Re: Linux NFS Server not creating sparse files I created a VM with a raw image, and it was created as sparse. An 'ls' showed 32GB disk, and a du -s showed 0 bytes. The raw disk image is now growing as I use it.

    [SOLVED] Linux NFS or GlusterFS Server not creating sparse files

    Re: Linux NFS Server not creating sparse files I just tested with # dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=1 count=0 seek=8G on the Proxmox server using the NFS mount (/mnt/pve/Images), and the sparse file was created. Is Proxmox doing something weird and not creating a sparse file, or am I...

    [SOLVED] Linux NFS or GlusterFS Server not creating sparse files

    Hi, I have an Ubuntu 12.04.3 server as an NFS server. I use the kernel server. When I create a qcow2 image, the file file gets created and Proxmox times out waiting for a lock. I've tried with both NFSv3 and NFSv4. NFSV4 is considerably faster at the disk image creation, but not fast...
