    New install on single disk: partition or not?

    Hi all I'm planning to install a 2nd system to function as a backup. The simplest way is to just install this system as a stand alone PVE system and copy containers & data over. I'm aware of the HA Cluster option but I'm not sure if it would be wise to go down that road, so comments are...

    Low (network) transfer speeds on Dell PowerEdge T610

    Somehow, the speed of that 1st NIC is normal now, don't understand what caused this since 'nothing' ( except rebooting, swapping cables/ports & installing updates) has changed on the config. Transfer speeds are at expected level, so that's the most important but I'm still curious what could have...

    Low (network) transfer speeds on Dell PowerEdge T610

    Thanks for your efforts Wolfgang! Lucky me: it's a GS116Ev2, so all the options are still open and my questions still stand. I also tried to bring up the 2nd NIC but I cannot to get it working. Is there something particular that I have to do? I assigned a unique IP to it and restarted the...

    Low (network) transfer speeds on Dell PowerEdge T610

    Nobody? I'm considering bonding them together, the switch is a Netgear GS116E (so managed) but never done such a thing before. Would that be a good option? If yes, a few questions: 1) Is it still advisable to use IEEE 802.3ad? 2) Will I lose connectivity to the server? (it runs headless and...

    Low (network) transfer speeds on Dell PowerEdge T610

    Hi Wolfgang, thanks for your reply. There are no other issues on the network, there are a lot of devices - mostly wired - and all works fine within expected results. The test I did was of course from another machine so the transfer was over the network, back and forth, on the server. Now I...

    Low (network) transfer speeds on Dell PowerEdge T610

    Hi all I have installed Proxmox on the above mentioned server (tower) The transfer speeds from/to the server (samba share on a container) are VERY low, about 1MB/sec. Is there anything special that I have to do to get reasonable speeds? All discs are original, I think 15K SAS drives. I just...

    ZFS: howto add 'new' HDD & transfer data from old one

    Hi budy, thank you for picking this up and don't worry: no offense taken. ;-) Of course I meant raidz0 instead of raidz1.. Yes, it is a single disk zpool shared with samba from a container. As you can see from the lsblk -fs output, somehow even disconnected, the new drive seems to remain...

    ZFS: howto add 'new' HDD & transfer data from old one

    Hi guys Fairly new to Proxmox/basic linux knowledge, and a little time ago I've managed to create a zpool (raidz1 raidz0) with a HDD (testdisk, 1TB) to be fully used as storage for a container and to be shared on the network. System, LXC's and VM's are on a SSD (rpool) To get this working it...

    How to handle ports/firewall with Debian Buster lxc?

    Hi Stefan, thanks for stepping in. I have used other (bare bone) virtualisation platforms before but containers are new for me so it's not really clear how the interaction between the container and it's environment exactly works. Therefor I was a puzzled whether this was a firewall issue...

    How to handle ports/firewall with Debian Buster lxc?

    Hi guys I have created a container based on a Debian Buster template to use as a VPN server. The problem I have is that only port 22 is available towards that machine and I'm puzzled on how to solve this (fairly new to Proxmox/containers and Linux is not my strongest point) My Proxmox...

    Only 1 of 6 HDD's on Perc 6/i controller during setup

    Thank you wolfgang for you response. Finally figured out to format them as RAID 0, not in the Dell USC environment but as you suggested in the controller config so they became visible in the proxmox setup. Thanks a lot!

    Hi all I'm trying to install the latest release on a server with this controller but only 1 HDD is showing up. The drives are fine and in the controller utility I can see them all. Any idea what might be wrong? TIA P.

    VM + data to big for new SSD

    Hi LnxBil, thanks for your reply! Should have been more clear: the idea is to put the VM, without the data, on the SSD. I managed to create a backup on another sata HDD but guess I cannot use that. Other suggestions?

    VM + data to big for new SSD

    Hi all I'm new to Proxmox since a few months for a home server. I started with a single HDD to get familiar with the system but now I would like to reinstall the system and reuse my VM's and containers already installed. In particular, there is 1 windows VM + data which I would like to keep...

    [SOLVED] Another "cluster not ready - no quorum? (500)" case

    Hi mira, thanks for picking this up! It's not clear to me if changing that setting was the only thing to solve this since you're asking for these files, but the node is back up and running. Thanks a LOT! Peter

    [SOLVED] Another "cluster not ready - no quorum? (500)" case

    Hi all, new Proxmox user since a few months for a home server. I have some basic experience with vmware & virtualbox but recently got a refurbished mini pc which I geared up with Proxmox and a few containers and vm's; initially this was a test but because I liked it, I continued this path...
