    I think it is a little different situation. I can't neither log in to :8007 Anyway, tried to replace "localhost" with "127.0.0.1" in /etc/pve/storage.cfg (odd bug if present), but the situation is unchanged. Thanks, P.

    Add IP alias to vmbr0

    Until Proxmox 4.x I used to add lines like: ifconfig vmbr0:74 99.99.99.99 broadcast 99.99.99.99 netmask 255.255.255.255 in /etc/rc.local In Proxmox 5.x (Debian 9.x), no more /etc/rc.local. I suppose I can create a service to have it again available, or I may play with some @reboot action in...

    PVE not found ...

    The P410i controller is in basic configuration with zero cache battery. There is a slot to add the cache, but this wasn't the problem. Not having cache only limits to max 2 defined array and for about 5 years it had worked fine before with Proxmox 2.x and then with ProxMox 4.x using a couple of...

    PVE not found ...

    I am going to fix my problem changing the topology of the disks, but still interested to hints that allow me to understand why the RAID controller blocks the boot and the pve management. And obviousy how to eventually fix them in a clean manner. Regards, P.

    Already tried. Added 'rootdelay=30' and tried also 5,10.20,100. Same result :-( If I connect the old defective disk (originally I had 2 disks in RAID-1 with one that present errors), the system boots normally. If I connect the old "good disk" to a PC it boots normally. Also the cloned disks tha...

    Very high SWAP usage on half of the nodes

    In my experience, update to the same kernel you are using, swappiness set to 0 AND a reboot solved. only set the swappiness to 0 having already the last kernel didn't solve (only LXC and mixed LXC/VM configuration). I temporary solved it with a "swapoff -a && swapon -a", until I could reboot the...
