    Possible bug after upgrading to 7.2: VM freeze if backing up large disks

    I'm experiencing issues when backing up VMs with large disks (e.g. 10TB, 20TB) to a remote PMG. When the backup starts, first the backup process itself hangs at 0% like this: At the same time (or a bit later) the VM becomes non-responsive, I can't connect to the VMs Console (via Proxmox GUI)...

    ceph storage distribution

    These are cities next to each other, so the latency is negligible. I can only see the 'replicated_rule' crush rule. How do I use the newer one? What is the purpose of it and can I read the docs?

    ceph storage distribution

    I have a 3-node cluster (e.g. server1, server2, server3) located somewhere at DC1 with ceph and HA configured. Now I'm adding 3 more nodes (e.g. server4, server5, server6) at DC2 and creating a 6-node cluster. My question is: How do I let set up ceph to always have a copy at another DC's node...

    Encryption key location

    Hi If I create an encrypted ceph cluster, are encryption keys stored in /etc/pve/priv/ or /var/lib/ceph/mon?

    Proxmox and ceph encryption

    The folder /var/lib/ceph/mon is located in rpool. You can double check that by running: df /var/lib/ceph/mon You should receive something like: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on rpool/ROOT/pve-1 7082348288 8044928 7074303360 1% / One of the possible solutions...

    Proxmox and ceph encryption

    Thanks for your reply. How do I protect that key in an encrypted rpool? AFAIK I can't encrypt an existing pool/dataset, so the only option would be to create a new encrypted dataset and somehow put the keys there. Could anyone pls advise what would be the best way to proceed with that...

    Proxmox and ceph encryption

    Thanks for your input guys. Could you pls advise where these monitors/keys are physically stored with the monitors? Can I choose a specific dataset for them? The idea is to put these keys into an encrypted dataset.

    Can't log in to the child node after joining the cluster

    Can't log in to the child node after joining the cluster

    The problem logging in to Node B was the second factor (OTP). When I created the TOTP on Node B, I used the same 'Description' and 'Issuer name' and it apparently overwrote the TOTP I created before on Node A. It seems like when creating a TOTP, the options should be unique for each node across...

    Proxmox and ceph encryption

    Hello I'm deploying a Proxmox/ceph cluster consisting of 3 physical nodes. I'd like to encrypt the whole ceph storage. I know there is an 'Encrypt' checkbox when creating OSDs, but it encrypts/decrypts automatically as needed and only protects when a system is off/disk taken out of the node...

    Can't log in to the child node after joining the cluster

    After resetting the password at Node B and resetting 2FA it started working and now I can log in. But I'm 100% sure it worked with the old password before Node B joined the cluster. Also, there were no SSL cert errors before. Does root password/SSL changes somehow when a node joins a cluster...

    Can't log in to the child node after joining the cluster

    Hello I've created a cluster with 2 nodes: Node A and Node B. Node A is the 'main' node and Node B joined the cluster. After creating the cluster, I can no longer log in to the Node B and I get an SSL certificate error. I can log in using the address associated with the Node A and can see the...
