    Updates for Proxmox VE 3.0 - including storage migration

    Hi all, I just tried to upgrade a two nodes cluster to latest PVE 3.0. First node went OK, using 'aptitude update' and 'aptitude safe-upgrade' (I did not see the new recommandations to use apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade). But on second node I get errors : # aptitude safe-upgrade ...

    Microsoft Active Directory on Proxmox

    I think the kind of problem that Microsoft may point is that your Active Directory DC acts also as a DNS server. If your host relies on these DNS, it will not find DNS upon reboot until the VM is activated. So you should have at least two physical hosts with a redundant DC on each. All clients...

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    I vote to rename the string on the Button 'Remove VM', to differentiate. I agree it can happen when 'automatically' repeting tasks, that such errors are possible, and having a different name for such a dangerous button would help. Just my advice ! Alain

    Installing Proxmox VE v1.9 post Lenny retirement

    Hi apmuthu, I tested to day the upgrade script from 1.9 and 2.0 with my test cluster, and saw one caveat with this post lenny retirement configuration. The script does not handle correctly the changes with 'archives' in sources.list, and ends with an incorrect file. So, I saw these errors when...

    Installing Proxmox VE v1.9 post Lenny retirement

    You are welcome. In fact, it was my plan from the beginning to have a test cluster to test 2.0, then to reinstall it with 1.9 and test the procedure to upgrade to 2.0, but the Lenny retirement complicated things a little. It helped me to have your wiki article to help fix the repositories paths...

    Installing Proxmox VE v1.9 post Lenny retirement

    In my case, I want to test the upgrade from 1.9 to 2.0. I already installed a test cluster with PVE 2.0 beta, then RC, to see how it works. Then I want to reinstall with 1.9, and test the upgrade path (with the script), to 2.0, before doing this on my production cluster. This is why I need to do...

    VNC console error after last kernel upadte

    Hi all, I just did an update of my test PVE 2.0 install (upgraded from RC1), that provides last kernel. I then did a test for USB passthrough, that was successfull (reported elsewhere). But I encounter a very annoying problem. VNC console does not seem to work now. I have this error message ...

    Any experience in importing Windows 2008 R2 (64bit) vmdk to KVM?

    Hi Bemar, The IDE patch is to to enable the use of IDE controllers. If the VM used a SCSI controller, and it is more than likely for a Vmware VM, they are not written in the registry, so it does not recognized the IDE controller. Yes, you should install Wmware player, and try to add this...

    Any experience in importing Windows 2008 R2 (64bit) vmdk to KVM?

    Hi Bemar, You use raw image file, but what kind of disk, ide or virtio ? (SCSI is not yet avalaible for windows AFAIK). If you use IDE, did you apply the ide registry patch before migrating the VM ? See : http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migration_of_servers_to_Proxmox_VE If it was a vmdk image...

    Active Directory Authentication

    Hi, There is a documentation. See : http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/User_Management Thanks to the developpers (and perhaps other), that completed this very detailed and instructive documentation (there was none when I made first tests). Alain

    PVE USB passthrough

    Hi spirit, I also saw something on these lines, on PVE dev mailing list. So, we can say that USB Passthrough is not working at this moment on PVE 2.0 ? I hope indeed these new patches will improve the situation. In fact, I have a license flexlm server at this moment under PVE 1.9. One of these...

    PVE USB passthrough

    Hi Diaolin, Thanks for the reminder. I had to test this on PVE 2.0, and I forgot. I just did a little test for USB Passthrough, and it does not seem to work, but perhaps I did not things correctly. So, on a fully updated PVE 2.0 RC1 host, I did the following, after having read the man pages...

    Dell poweredge 2950 network driver?

    Hi Mark, I have a Dell PE 2950 under Proxmox 1.x from quite a long time now. I did nothing peculiar, it worked out of the box. Here is the NIC model from lspci : 05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 12) At least, eth0 and eth1, the two...

    Roadmap for Proxmox VE 2.0

    In a recent answer on the user mailing list, Martin said end of Q1 2012. See : http://pve.proxmox.com/pipermail/pve-user/2012-January/003078.html So, I guess it could be end of March. In my opinion, it is a bit late. End of Lenny support is February 6th, if I remember correctly, and it was said...
