Hi There, Simple enough problem, there is a package that is available in the PVE repository that is not available in the PBS repository and I'm wondering if there is an alternative that I should be using which is more specific to PBS or if I need to install this package manually by running...

Hi Reidaine, Just the ESXi importer for now, you'll need to follow the standard import method for HyperV guests. Here are the steps: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/migrated-windows-server-2012r2-vm-from-hyper-v-to-proxmox-does-not-boot.117117/post-507013 Cheers, Tmanok

On Proxmox Virtual Environment, you must always run "apt update && apt dist-upgrade" due to the configuration updates that are pushed through to the OS and certain package management conditions present in this project. On Debian based GNU/Linux environments, "apt update" simply checks for...

Shared to several places, let's hope the word gets out and we can support VMWare ESXi users looking for a welcoming community to migrate towards. Thanks Tom and the rest of the Proxmox team for putting in some hard work into making this community and product more welcoming to new users!

How'd it go, Zubin? Cheers, Tmanok

Look, you can do that, but in my experience over the last two decades of backing up using TimeMachine, remote backups become corrupted and this is still an unresolved issue in 2024. Additionally, you will need to configure your SMBv3 very carefully if you want any support from Apple to resolve...

Update for anyone desperate to get their hands on images when they're no longer available, I've used wget to mirror them and then hosted them in one of my personal hypervisor clusters in my DMZ. Let's Encrypt was also used on the webserver for added security...

Hi Dietmar, Thank you for clarifying, I think there has been some confusion for me as I could have sworn LXD used to be LXC...? Cheers, Tmanok

Hey Vesalius, Thanks for the link, I'm glad they're temporarily available. I'm going to mirror that site (https://images.linuxcontainers.org/images/) for the time being - if anyone 6mos from now needs a copy, I will do my best to create a large archive and if enough people want it I'll publish...

Thanks for the great information everyone! Does anyone know where OpenWRT LXC/LXD images are available now that Canonical has stopped funding for the LXD project's image servers? Thanks, Tmanok

Hi There, Just curious if the loss of LXD Image Server funding from Canonical with the Linux Containers project is going to affect Proxmox Virtual Environment and whether or not we will see a shift to Incus containers (whatever those are ;) ). Also, is there a good up to date explanation /...

While I'm not opposed to PBS being a VM on the local storage server, PBS is not something I have ever chosen to install bare-metal for a variety of reasons. Unless you count running it as a Bhyve VM on TrueNAS at some of the off-site locations I've managed... That's still not bare-metal but it's...

Hey Davlaw, I've got a few old servers with 3.5" bays and many 4TB CMR drives to spare, my thought is that if I created a 3-way replica between them this would greatly reduce the risk of unavailability and if I created RAID10 mirrors with the drives that would greatly reduce the risk of data...

Hah! Same. Damn, I was hoping this would work in 8.1.4. Not sure why OPNSense would use bzip2 for crying out loud... After reviewing the ticket and noticing it was closed, I decided to file a new ticket in order to be polite and not reopen the old one...

Perhaps if you don't have an enterprise firewall and you either want a honeypot vm that sits out on the open to proactively catch crawlers and then ban them cluster-wide or you have many servers that are all receiving malicious activity and want to sort them uniquely. Shouldn't those IPs be...

To my understanding balance-alb and balance-tlb are for storage only, they rewrite MAC addresses in outgoing packets which can mess with guest networking. The link you provided only recommends using those modes for storage. Tmanok

Noticed this today after traveling to another timezone, but for some reason either the browser or the WebGUI decided it didn't know my timezone so it set GMT (UTC). If I override using Inspect Element > Three Dots > More Tools > Sensors > Override (pick a city as an example or set custom), then...

@Dark26 GlusterFS is volume-level redundancy, I figured this might have been achieved by mirroring blocks, not files but it sounds like my understanding was incorrect... This seems like a pretty big reason to avoid GlusterFS as a hypervisor, but it sounds very compatible with Proxmox Backup...

Hi there, Is there anyway to remove a snapshot that never finished correctly? The VM starts up fine but I don't want leftover remnants from an interrupted snapshot. Thanks, Tmanok

Hey Roland, Personally, I use zstd everywhere I can. When I listed gzip and lz4 it was merely because the FPGA supported it and ZFS uses LZ4 by default ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Completely agree with the sentiment. Worst case use pgzip but even then.... Hmm, I suppose you're right in that many aspects of...
