    New VMs are retaining lvm data from previously removed VMs

    Well this got a lot of attention. For anyone who googles this in future, a work around to this bug is to restore a VM that uses a different OS (and partitioning scheme), ie. Windows. After that any newly created VMs should install okay. It must clear or overwrite the bad data, where ever that...

    New VMs are retaining lvm data from previously removed VMs

    Somewhere some data is being saved, I'm just not 100% sure where that would be. A little while back I was restoring VM backups, one of which I cancelled as shown: /var/log/pve/tasks# cat B/UPID:labhost:00041992:01758D18:5453CAAB:qmrestore:130:xxx@ad:restore vma archive: zcat...

    [SOLVED] Interface used by WebUI changes after adding a new bridged interface

    So of course it's only after I give up and make my thread that I find an answer, or at least a work around. I didn't realise that the bridged interfaces don't need actual IPs assigned to them, so creating vmbr2 bridged with eth2 and assigning no IP has worked. However, I still think it's...

    Using kickstart files with the qm create command?

    Hello experts, So after consulting the manual and google, I've found that I should be able to create a new vm, using a kickstart file, using the qm create [...] --args command. Unfortunately I'm having trouble getting this to work correctly. I'm currently trying: qm create 143 --name testKS1...

    Migrating xen LVM VMs into Proxmox

    Thanks so much for the quick response, this looks like a great, if slightly confusing, guide! (I'm still rather a novice with xen/kvm..) As I understand, the idea is to create a debian vm under proxmox, scrape out it's innards and replace it with those of the old xen VMs? Unfortunately I don't...

    Hello experts, I am currently trying to migrate a couple windows and centos VMs from my xenhost into proxmox. I have managed to copy over an lv and add it to the pve vg.
