Hey everyone, Found some nifty PVE setup scripts today on Reddit that I plan on utilizing very soon. https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/ Have not tested these yet, however a few admins online used them with success and apparently it saved them quite a bit of time. Personally, I will use them...

Does this type of change work with other settings for first time setup? That would be very helpful!

The simplest solution to avoid breaking things before the move would be to add witness nodes (any machine but not VM) to balance your cluster's quorum. If you are not really running a production deployment (which should have a minimum of 3 nodes) then you can use a run of the mill machine with a...

You could theoretically manage each of your VMs in taskset, but ideally the CPU scheduler is already noticing when a core is occupied. However, having to pin each of your VMs and keep track of where each VM is pinned is a very manual task, made worse when you begin to involve Hyperconverged...

I am keen to find out more about this too. This is my current understanding: Virgl uses a shader library (Gallium) inside the guest and that interacts with a MESA Driver and Kernel KMS. Virgl (QEMU) then converts the driver tasks into OpenGL for the host GPU to compute. Here are my questions...

Adding to this: File-based means mountpoint on a local filesystem (ext4 on single disk or HW RAID for example). QCOW2 specification is important because .raw disks (often converted from VMWare or HyperV), for both VMs and the default for LXCs, have different requirements for snapshots. Are...

Hi bXunter and jkilbreth, If you ever have doubts about whether or not a conversion process will delete or corrupt data, make a backup and or move the production data to a secondary storage temporarily.... In this case, I do believe that it will delete data on the local-lvm if you convert it...

FYI Proxmox Backup Server also displays this error: it is safe to ignore. systemctl status chronyd works fine.

Hi Dominik, Ah that's where those are! I had not. I've now applied: cat /var/log/proxmox-backup/api/access.log.1 | grep -oE "\b([0-9]{1,3}\.){3}[0-9]{1,3}\b" | grep -v 192.168 | sort -u And it worked brilliantly. Thank you! Tmanok

Hey all, Simple question: Is there a way to see a local PBS instance [Public] IP from a remote? local (off-site) <-- Pulls from <-- remote (on-site) In short, I know the on-site (remote) PBS IP, but not the off-site (local) PBS IP. Checking /var/log/auth.log, /var/log/wtmp.log...

Now that is slick. Thank you for sharing.

Awesome! Good job man. In that same line of thought, the new M1 Pro and M1 Max came out and according to Apple they will be somewhere in the 30,000 on the benchmark score which is 1.5x my Dell XPS 15's i9-11900H. I gotta hand it to Apple, if this keeps up and they release a gen3 M1 MacMini I...

HI Aaron, I was incorrect and misinterpreted your question about snapshots. While performing maintenance on our largest VMs there were actually snapshots from August 5th and September (21 days prior to my last post indicating that there were no snapshots). So after removing a grand total of...

In addition to this, I just finished saving a customer's 2010 MacMini running PVE 6-3-3 (took me forever a year or two ago to setup, ended up installing using a 2009 MacBook and then transferred the SSD to the MacMini) so when I came in to update their single PVE node and it started throwing...

I liked the idea mentioned in the second link, a cluster of clusters aka a business continuity cluster. I've often wondered how larger cloud enterprises handled such growth, I think they start turning to solutions such as OpenNebula or Cloudstack, personally I always find those types of...

Hi Fabian, Ok I see that you used the reverse perspective of local = pulling instance aka off-site backup and remote = pulled from instance (which is the perspective used in the software itself). Note that my original Q was the asked the other way around local = on-site and remote = off-site as...

Hi Thomas, Ah right, I made some late night assumptions when asking this post. Daily pruning, GC, and the above retention policy scenarios. Nightly/daily backups with weekly syncs. So with that in mind, it sounds unlikely that a remote could collect more than 1 additional backup more than the...

Hi Everyone, I am trying to understand garbage collection a bit better, I'll lay out two scenarios and ask you what happens so that I can better understand. PVE --> Backs up to --> Local PBS Remote PBS <-- Pulls from Local PBS 1. Garbage Collection on Local PBS: Keep last 10 Garbage...

Wise words! These thoughts had slipped my mind. Unfortunately watching the resource consumption of the corresponding PID for the VM shows ~13.8-15% CPU usage (Or roughly the original 5-8% if you divide by 2 for the number of cores allocated to the VM). Additionally I'm still abut 200MiB of...

Oh nice, I just setup two OPNSense routers, so much higher performance, even on weak old xeons! Why spend thousands on something with 1-4GB of RAM and a few ARM CPU cores when you can build a better version for a couple hundred? :P
