    How to boot Proxmox PVE from degraded ZFS-RAID10 / grub rescue

    Hello, we are using a old, mostly unused Proxmox server (HP ProLiant DL160 Gen8) as backup/fail-safe Hypervisor for our infrastructure production VMs. I boot up that server ever week and clone the storage of those VMs via "zfs send" to it. Now it seems that one disk is broken and it does not...

    Cloning a VM from snapshot - not working

    For all the people who need a solution for this problem. The solution is more or less straight forward, you just have to do it manuially, on OS level,, and not the GUI. Steps to do: 1) Create a empty VM (the cloned one) by copying and editing the <VM-ID>.conf file of the parent VM...

    Cloning a VM from snapshot - not working

    I think that nothing will happen to that requests? And not even a warning when using zfs volumes. It would be nice to knew that BEFORE you choose your storage system. So i#m now stuck with a lot of VMs where i#m only able to work with the last snapshot and not with any else. :-( I now need to...

    Create a VM copy from a VM snapshot

    hm, that worked in my test before, but now that it's gettinmg serious, it doesn't. Even the target VM has no snapshot attached, it says it has one cannot receive new filesystem stream: destination has snapshots (eg. Storage10k/vm-200-disk-2@--head--) must destroy them to overwrite it in the...

    Create a VM copy from a VM snapshot

    OK, the solution is really simple. Even in the GUI it does not work, via "zfs send" it does. When target VM already exists as a copy of the source system, it's: zfs send Storage10k/vm-100-disk-0@vorSAPDMZTest | zfs recv -F Storage10k/vm-101-disk-0 if target VM does not exist already, you had...

    Create a VM copy from a VM snapshot

    a second problem is that i do not have enough free space on that host. That's the reason for the question about "zfs send". I used "zfs send <zfs volume>" to copy VMs over network on a different host. But in that case all snapshots got transmitted over. This would be also a solution, but i would...

    Create a VM copy from a VM snapshot

    Hello, i use Proxmox on ZFS. I have a VM with multiple snapshots. I would now create a copy of that VM based on a dedicated snapshot of that VM. Is that possible? With "zfs send | ssh zfs revev " to another host? How to do that? Thanks a lot.

    How to replace boot drives (rpool) in a RAID1 Mirror

    That Proxmox is using grub on UEFI does not change the process? I#m very unexperienced when it comes to UEFI booting, sorry... root@Iteanova019pve:~# efibootmgr -v BootCurrent: 000B BootOrder: 000B,000A,0004,0009,0008,0007,0006,0000 Boot0000* Integrated NIC 1 Port 1 Partition 1...

    How to replace boot drives (rpool) in a RAID1 Mirror

    Hello, i got a rpool as ZFS-RAID1 with 2 drives where the system boots from. I want to replace those aging drives by new ones. I thought adding those two new drives to the mirror (i already have added one, another one is not included actually), sync it and then remove the old drives from the...

    prevent take over of a SPICE-Remotedesktop

    i#m now going forward with a combination of Hyper-V and guacamole. Guacamole can connect to Host-RDP of Hyper-V and has some of the features that MS removed with Server 2012R2 (permission per users) which gave a similar experience then with Virtualbox. Unfortunatly Proxmox seems not to be...

    prevent take over of a SPICE-Remotedesktop

    Well, not really. I need the Host-Remotedesktop because of the workload i have running & it is possible somehow, as Virtualbox shows. In Virtualbox you can limit the amount of parallel user via settings to one user, preventing the overtake of a Remotedesktopsession. Not really a perfect...

    prevent take over of a SPICE-Remotedesktop

    Hello, is it possible to prevent the take over of a existing SPICE remote desktop session? Actually, every user with permissions to a dedicated VM can over take any SPICE Window that another user with similar permissions had used. And therefore spy on any data and use the login on those VM by...

    SPICE Verbindung auf einen User beschränken / SPICE privacy?

    Hallo, für einen sehr speziellen Anwendungsfall brauche ich eine Art VDI Lösung die aber privatheit ermöglicht. Es sollte also NICHT möglich sein das jemand die Remotekonsole/SPICE-Fenster einer VM übernimmt und dadurch ein Login (auf der VM) einfach übernimmt und auf die dortigen Daten...

    VM cloning with zvol-volumes TERRIBLE slow

    The HDs are a completely wrong type for that workload. In fact they have not been bought for this, but for backup like purpose to store the Tranaction log backups of the S4/HANA system. I have used them now for the VM cloning because i did not had anything else and the cloned VM was only for...
