hello @Stoiko Ivanov - yes, I used the iso for install with a zfs raid1 setup. So, I changed the boot mode on the supermicro server to uefi and it booted ok! The host, vms and containers all came back up ok. I also setup a fresh vm using OVMF (UEFI) and it all came up ok. I couldn't do...

Hello @LnxBil and @jayg30 thanks for the info. I am all set with the bind mounts now. Now need to tackle the issue of setting up persistent storage volumes for my kubernetes cluster ( dynamically provisioned ). There is almost nothing out there for doing this on proxmox. My kubernestes...

I installed proxmox using the legacy mode - setting the bios to legacy on my supermicro server. Is it possible now, to change to uefi bootloader for my proxmox host? Or do I have to tear everything down and redo?

Hello Dominic - Sorry for the delayed reply. Finally got around to looking at this. I setup the zfs pool and the mount point as directed above. I installed postgres in this container. And I needed to move a postgres conf file into my mount point folder. I am running into permissions issue. I...

Something like this ? zfs create -o refquota=100G datastore/backups

So I created a zfs pool called datastore on the new disk. Has 1 tb of storage. Does creating a new dataset called backups at datastore/backup assign all the 1 tb to this dataset? Is there a way to limit how much space the backup dataset can have?

How ? Not sure how to setup the partition for this

Hello - I just added a local storage disk in my server. I'd like to setup a zfs pool on it - Please let me know if its possible to do all of the following on one zfs pool : create a partition for scheduled backups ( vzdumps of all containers and vms) create a partition for database storage -...

How? I'd like to do this. I am sure I setup my proxmox install with a zfs mirror in legacy boot mode. I had some errors trying to install it with a UEFI boot. So is there a way to first, check what I have and maybe, change the boot type to uefi ?

What should the correct configuration be? Not sure I setup pfsense as the default gateway for the pve host. As I said, the pve host has its own network port ( eno1), which is not on pfsense at all yes they are - well, all vms going through the eno7 nic ( which is not on pfsense are routed to...

ok - I must be confused then on how to setup my proxmox host with pfsense then. How can I setup proxmox , with pfsense vm, where the setup does not depend on pfsense for network connectivity - I am new at this so please allow the occasional dumb question. If I setup pfsense, isn't everything...

I tested it this weekend. The backup works ok for all vms and containers except the pfsense vm. As soon as the pfsense backup starts, all network connectivity is lost and the backup fails - as well as the internet. The whole system becomes unresponsive until I reboot the server. Any ideas why...

Hello Thomas - I was going to post but you beat me to it. So I added the --remove 1 flag and was able to manually perform a back up . It completed successfully. But I woke up this morning and found that the scheduled overnight backup has failed again ! Now not sure it was a limit issue but...

My scheduled backup from the datacenter are failing because of this - I thought automatic deletion of old backups is active on scheduled tasks.?

@oguz @Drax - I am trying to do the same thing. But I see that the ' /etc/pve/vzdump.cron ' is automatically generated. There is a "do no edit message" there - perhaps any edits will be overwritten ? My backups are failing because I have hit the limit I set as well.

I am looking to use acme certificates with haproxy on my pfsense vm to offload /manage certificates on local clients - like my synology box. On a physical pfsense box, this is usually involves installing the acme and haproxy packages on pfsense. Now, with my pfsense virtualized in proxmox, I...

Hi Wolfgang I thought I should be able to assign the virtual functions directly to each vm as a pci device in the network the proxmox host? Can't do that in pfsense.

you mean this is wrong? This is from the pfsense summary screen

got it. now, I need to solve the issue of proxmox showing high memory usage for pfsense when pfsense itself shows very little. I looked around here and found one post where the user had cpu hotplug enabled - I dont. My memory usage is at 90% with 4gb memory allocated.

Thanks, I see it now. But how can I pass through all cpu supported features to vms by default?
