    Freeze/thaw VM on Backup

    as always "it depends" here, for VMs with MSSQL, DBs ~2G, I only rely on Proxmox Backup Server as MSSQL VSS writer ensures consistency. Hookscript not required. For some VMs, DATA and DBs backups are done within guest, only system vdisk is backup by Proxmox others vdisks are excluded. Proxmox...

    Freeze/thaw VM on Backup

    keep it for Windows guests, as snapshot is done within guest, like Windows Backup or Veeam done the job. Disabling is not recommended, because in-use files like databases can't be consistent, except if you shutdown databases engine and close in-use files.

    Geo IP block help

    After a try , ipset created with PVE UI cannot be managed with ipset direcly. ipset created with PVE UI can be updated with CLI pvesh create /cluster/firewall/ipset/my-pve-ipset-name --cidr x.x.x.x/y but too slow if many lines. editing cluster.fw directly is instant.

    Geo IP block help

    Edit : UdoB link is less complicated. I use this script https://github.com/mkorthof/ipset-country on a host customize the code to keep ipdeny.com download/update and ipset generation/update Remove firewall/rules parts Then use the "ipset" generated directly in PVE firewall.

    Enabling virtual machine platform on fully patched windows 10 22H2 causes vm to hang at boot

    Nice catch. Reproduced here : i440fx doesn't boot with ISO Windows 10 build 1904x.6456 (the EoL build) on a PVE 8.4.16 EPYC 2th Gen host and a PVE 9.1 i5 6th Gen host , vCPU type isn't relevant. EDIT : Only reproduced with the updated iso , with the ISO Windows 10 RTM 20H1 build 19041 boot is OK...

    How to dismount and remount USB drive for manual backups on PVE

    if device is not mounted, backups are written to / filesystem. umount and delete backups if they exist in the mount point. use chattr +i /mnt/.../proxback to prevent its usage when mount is missing.

    Network issue since containers and Vm were migrated from Proxmox 8.4.14 Sever to Proxmox 9.0.11 Server

    Proxmox VE, with its default vmbr0 Linux bridge, acts like a hardware switch, it does not manage guests network configuration. But you can block ipv6 with PVE Firewall. Enable it in each guest and each guests nic. Then set NDP to "No" in each guest.
