    pfsense VM with UFS leads to overfull vm disk until reboot

    Hello, I recently moved to running pfsense in a VM on pve-manager/8.1.4/ec5affc9e41f1d79 (running kernel: 6.5.11-8-pve). My proxmox storage is zfs, so using virtio block storage for the vm creates a zvol. In pfsense, in order to avoid zfs on zfs, and write amplification, I am using UFS as the...

    [TUTORIAL] PCI/GPU Passthrough on Proxmox VE 8 : Installation and configuration

    Thanks for this comprehensive guide. Hoping to get help with passthrough of my iGPU that is part of a J4125 based mini-pc. When I start the debian VM I just get a black screen and the whole proxmox system freezes up. I have tried the blacklist method and the softdep with the same result. Any...

    Best way to identify processes causing IO delay and power consumption?

    Hello, I guess this is not strictly a proxmox exclusive question, but I am interested exclusively in my proxmox machine and I am hoping to benefit from the experienced users here. I recently measured my box draws 300W at the wall which is higher than expected, and I see in the proxmox GUI that...

    [SOLVED] Creating a ZFS boot mirror

    Sorry to revive this thread, but I wanted to ask you a question. How do you make sure the two efi partitions stay in sync, specifically in the case of failure of one disk? I have done the same as you: proxmox-boot-tool format /dev/nvme0n1p2 proxmox-boot-tool init /dev/nvme0n1p2 zpool attach...

    LXC ZFS + docker overlay2 driver

    I tested my other LXC and it is the same. Maybe you could test for me? In my case, docker on overlay2 fails when building a container when trying to edit write-protected files, even though it is root. It works fine when pulling a pre-made container. Could you test building this project...

    LXC ZFS + docker overlay2 driver

    Docker happily recreates the directory and then run containers fresh. It was a recommended action on the docker docs site, I think. Otherwise the old references to fuse-overlay stick around. I ended up creating a zfs volume on the proxmox host and formatting it ext4 and mounting it to...

    LXC ZFS + docker overlay2 driver

    Thanks, I removed the /var/lib/docker folder and now docker starts and reports overlay2. However, this is causing havoc, as it makes container file system read-only which is problematic for running my docker compose build? This is apparently related to overlay2 and I get this error in dmesg...

    LXC ZFS + docker overlay2 driver

    T For the lxc that had fuse, I cannot get it to work with overlay2. I now have 2 lxc on overlay2. The fuse one now will not start, and I don't know what to do next. This is the error: Mar 14 06:18:12 whisper dockerd[508]: time="2023-03-14T06:18:12.024544396Z" level=info msg="Starting up" Mar...

    LXC ZFS + docker overlay2 driver

    I have ZFS on my storage pool for lxc containers and I have a few LXC containers for docker with different Storage Driver: I guess I want overlay2 for all of them? For example, LXC 126 has these options: features: nesting=1,keyctl=1 unprivileged: 1 lxc.cgroup2.devices.allow: a lxc.cap.drop...

    [SOLVED] Today's Kernel / Firmware Update has really messed up my boxes!

    I will migrate to a vm too, but temporarily, to make the vfs work, I needed braces as well, like this: cat /etc/docker/daemon.json { "storage-driver": "vfs" }

    Pfsense as VM - VLANs on LAN?

    eno1 is WAN and enp2s0 is LAN. Is that not this? auto vmbr1 iface vmbr1 inet manual bridge-ports eno1 bridge-stp off bridge-fd 0 Maybe this is the issue? If I have a vmbr4094 interface in promox, then I DHCP works to VM assigned 4094 but that is apparently not passed to the switch...

    Pfsense as VM - VLANs on LAN?

    Hello, I have VLANS working for my proxmox VM and LXC - but I cannot get any external devices to recognise the VLAN. My proxmox machine has two NICs. One for WAN and one for LAN. LAN connects to a TL-SG108E switch on port 7. Port 7 is tagged for VLAN 4094. Trying to connect a VLAN aware device...

    proxmox host becomes inaccessible for two-three minutes at a time

    Ah, interesting. So I looked in the ARPtable of my pfsense and I do have duplicate mac address that are the Virtual IPs for pfsense. None others listed there. Looking at ìp link` on my proxmox the mac address of the proxmox interface is repeated like this. Are they problematic? 2: enp2s0...

    proxmox host becomes inaccessible for two-three minutes at a time

    Hello, I have been using proxmox at home for a few years, and this is starting to bug me. I have noticed disconnects from ssh over time and I just started to notice a broader pattern that lead me to realise that my proxmox host becomes unresponsive to network traffic for about two-three minutes...

    [SOLVED] fresh Ubuntu template 20.04 LXC - too many levels of symbolic links

    It was the case sensitivity thing, but for my zvol. I usually put them elsewhere, and decided to put it the same place as my VM, which happened to be case insensitive, and it inherited that flag! It does raise the question, if it possible for proxmox to specify case-sensitive volume when...

    [SOLVED] fresh Ubuntu template 20.04 LXC - too many levels of symbolic links

    Hi! I just started a new container with ubuntu template 20.04 My typical practice is to apt update and apt upgrade. This causes an error is the package libpam-runtime, saying it has too many levels of symbolic links. Specifically unable to open '/usr/share/man/man7/PAM.7.gz.dpkg-new': Too many...

    Duplicate MAC address across two NICs?

    Hello, I have two onboard NICs connected to my network. No VLANs for now. I have both connected to a pfsense VM with bridges. ISP router is on 192.168.2.1 with DHCP disabled. It appears that one NIC does not have its own MAC address and copies the other? This causes my console to be flooded...
