    Backups failing, cant umount

    Just a followup: All methods descriped above unfortunately did not work, lvremove was not able to remove the volume either. monitoring during the backup did not show any issues as well. HOWEVER I changed the compression settings from gzip to lgo and since 4 days the backups work fine now, so...

    Backups failing, cant umount

    Hm, wouldn´t call that "full" root@hostname:~# vgs VG #PV #LV #SN Attr VSize VFree pve 1 4 0 wz--n- 465.15g 11.11g But I guess I need to check it while the backup is running? As said, a manual backup works fine. Would it help to split the backups up in multiple jobs? Even...

    Backups failing, cant umount

    Thanks for the explanation. Unfortunately that didnt help, the backup tonight was again unsuccessfull INFO: starting new backup job: vzdump 101 104 106 108 --quiet 1 --mode snapshot --compress gzip --storage backup INFO: filesystem type on dumpdir is 'cifs' -using /var/tmp/vzdumptmp152231 for...

    Backups failing, cant umount

    Followup: WIth the previous setting, backups where not successfull as the LVM could not be created (lack of disk space). I´ve reduced the value to as low as 5000 and at least the manual backup now works, although it just feels strange to me that it works with such a low image size (the...

    Backups failing, cant umount

    Thanks for your fast reply! I wasnt able to figure out the default size as the man page is not very helpful here, what would be a good value? I now set it to 80000 which should be 80GB which is a bit larger than my largest Container, good enough? In case it should mater, here is my disk status...

    unique IP for KVM

    Thanks for your reply, you´re totally right. No need for any config on the host. After all it turned out to be a missconfiguration on the client side, a typo in resolv.conf...

    unique IP for KVM

    little update: I thought it would be sufficient to declare an alias eth0:174 like this ifconfig eth0:174 84.x.x.174 up i on the host and then add that as a bridged device via the proxmox webgui, but when assigning the device to the vmbr174 i get "Error: unable to bridge device 'eth0:174' "...

    unique IP for KVM

    Hi everybody, this is a pretty beginner question, but I´m somewhat lost. I have Proxmox 1.6 runngin, a single NIC on the host with 5 IPs assigned to it, 84.x.x.170-84.x.x.174. I have some openVZ containers which I can easily assign IPs to. However now I need a KVM Client running Ubuntu linux...

    Is Proxmox Mail right for me?

    Thanks Tom. Yeah sorry, I thought the mail gateway would be OS as well. Regarding the MS stuff, luckily my university is taking part in MSDNAA, so we get free licenses for personal use, which is rather cool ;) Regarding the single-domain restriction, how does this work exactly? The...
