...USB drive I used. I've since tried to move the PVE VG to another HDD but in so doing Ive run into some issues around using LVM Thin. (Can't shrink it). Maybe there is a way around that but I'd be happier not using that storage method. But I think I'll have to reinstall the PVE to...

...Win11 VM's virtual disk itself will require 1TB. I personally don't use disk2vhd, but use dd as an image (option 3 above). What I do is to shrink down that image before I start. It takes some effort & is complicated but is possible (sometimes!). You could probably do this with the disk2vhd...

Hello, I am having trouble resizing a linux container. Any help is appreciated. I am new to Linux so maybe im missing something obvious? I was trying to resize the cockpit container (100) to utilize all the available space and somehow I made it 160tb+ Thank you so much in advance. Please let me...

...While Ceph worked fine its performance (with dedicated but sub-minimum 2.5 GBit/s = simply slow) was not great. And crazy prices for energy made me to want to shrink down the number of Nodes running 24*7. Removing nodes would cripple Ceph earlier or later, so I decided to remove it completely.

...there is free space. You can only do this when booted into a Linux live CD (such as GParted). data is a thin pool volume . Only expansion (not shrinking) is supported. You must backup all LVMs and LXCs, delete them and re-create the data LV, and restore VMs and LXCs. You can do this when you...

This worked for me for a VM running OpenMediaVault. The volume was shrunk from 1000gb to 500gb. No issues as of yet.

...what I want to do; I have a number of mostly Windows VMs, running in my PVE cluster. They are stored on an LVM on iSCSI storage. I'd like to shrink some of the disks, to save some space, and am looking for a procedure to achieve this. Within Windows, I know I can defrag the disk to try and...

...a USB drive to see if I can store the ISO images on there but it still errors out when trying to upload .ISO images. Aside from getting larger SD cards, any suggestions if its possible to shrink pve-data a bit? I don't plan to store anything on the 16GB SD card except for the Proxmox OS...

...properly doing so and adding space to root, it adds it into /dev/shm and that directory refuses to stay unmounted. I am terrified to manually shrink and grow the filesystem without proper guidance, as I have already experienced firsthand those consequences on my file server. Any help on this...

Hallo zusammen aktuell versuche ich, ein bestehendes Image innerhalb von Proxmox zu verkleinern. Im Betriebssystem habe ich bereits den belegten Platz reduziert. Im zweiten Schritt wollte ich über die Kommandozeile mit der Funktion qemu-img dass das Image verkleinern. Aktuell scheitere ich...

...about your goal? And if you didn't got it at the point why did you follow something you don't understand? Feasible yes, you could try to shrink pve-root and afterwards setup a new LVM-THIN VG. You should create backups of your configuration and everything else important before (you did make...

No idea, but... I would shrink down the RAM drastically. On my "Warp Version 3" box I can read "requires 4MB". Remember: the software must be able to handle that large address range; I would start far below 100MiB... Good luck!

...images, write operations on block 0 will be restricted. Specify the 'raw' format explicitly to remove the restrictions. qemu-img: Use the --shrink option to perform a shrink operation. qemu-img: warning: Shrinking an image will delete all data beyond the shrunken image's end. Before perform...

That works! Thank you very much :)

How could you dd to the smaller disk? Have you used sgdisk -R=/dev/target /dev/source to replicate the GPT before executing the dd command? I'd like to see the steps for that. In theory, what you described should not work as dd cannot manage to replicate the table that would be at the end of the...

The ARC should shrink, if other processes need the memory, yes. But, afaik, the shrinking could often start too late respectively be too slow, which might lead to oom situations. For reference: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4829

My friend recently increased the size of a vm disk and went way too large on it. I was trying to help him resize it. The zfs resize command didn't work. He also tried creating a new disk, copying partitions in gparted and that didn't work either. I suggested trying some bootable disk cloning...

...it is at 32G now but that's not what I intended and I cannot descrease it using "Resources->Root Disk->Volume Action->Resize". The GUI only allows to increase, not shrink it again :-( Command line also refuses to shrink: pct resize 101 rootfs 15G unable to shrink disk size What can I do?

...yet, so the data is still not changed. The attached screenshot shows that. The Installed OS is Ubuntu Server Pro, so Linux. I can rebuild from scratch if I had to, but I would really like to avoid that if I could just shrink the disk since the partition on the disk have not yet been touched.

...However when I tried to resize the lv filesystem size it doesn't work, seems the empty lv space have been pre-allocated. Probably I should shrink the partition and filesystem first, then do a dd (if dd method is still the way to go) p.s. found this one should be helpful...
