Hello, I have a big server with around 50 KVM machines on it. It is located in a 2u colo. Now I have my own rack in another datacenter, where I would like to continue expanding my new KVM machines. I have a layer 3 switch with fiber uplinks. For now, it's just a dump switch. Is it possible...

Hello Tom, eth0 and eth1 are for normal usage. vmbr0 can be created on eth2, but I don't have a gateway anymore since the servers are connected directly to each other. Should I manipulate the eth device numbers in udev/rules.d?

Hello, I want to setup a new Proxmox cluster with direct connection. The servers have 2 1Gbit nics and 2 10Gbit nics. I want the servers to cumminicate with the 10Gbit link, wich is eth2. When I try to create a cluster, using the direct IP's that I configured on eth2 at both machines, I get...

I just rebooted the Proxmox host. The disks are not visible anymore. You are probably right about the power/cables. I will have to check the server hardware :-(

I can try a power cycle, but as said I rather avoid downtime. I will have to go to the datacenter etc. wich I hate :-) The disks are connected to the same power cable, but the power supply is redundant. Also I think some other devices are connected to the same power cable, like backplane...

Hello all, I'm running Proxmox 1.8 on a Supermicro server with 8 hot-swap bays with hardware raid and 2 normals bays for sata disks (used for back-up). This night, when the back-ups started, both sata disks crashed suddenly. VMID NAME STATUS TIME SIZE FILENAME 101 X OK 00:08:36 11.07GB...

Thanks Udo, this worked for me. I created a vmbr1 on my second network card. Just don't forget to bring up the vmbr (ifconfig vmbrX up) ifconfig eth1 up brctl addbr vmbr1 brctl addif vmbr1 eth1 ifconfig vmbr1 up

Hello, I want to host VM's on a Proxmox server with a internal LAN. I setup a vmbr0 on Proxmox. Created a Router with 2 network adapters (both on vmbr0) eth0 is for the WAN side (connection outside of Proxmox and internet) eth1 is for the LAN side (10.10.X.X for internal communication) I...

I somehow got it working with a special bios boot partition on the 4TB array. I booted a from a Debian 5 installer and did manual partitioning. On the empty 4TB disk, I created the following table: - 1MB partition, no mount point, BIOS BOOT OPTION=YES - 3,9TB partition, LVM - 12GB partition...

I don't have more room in the server to create a redundant boot array. I could configure 2x1TB and 6x1TB but that's a big waste. I'm trying to put /boot on the USB for now.

I got a 2u server with 8x 1TB disks in RAID10 (4TB of usable data) and 2x 2TB backup disks (for snapshots/backup). Now I want to install Proxmox on it, but grub doesn't support large drives (2TB+). What are my options? Right now I have created 2 4x1TB RAID10 arrays, but I think the...

Hi, My server crashed so now I moved the virtual machines to a test server (supermicro 2022G-URF) Since the VM's are on a NAS, the network speed is very important. However, the Intel 82576 nic on the 2022-URF is only getting 100mbit. How can I set this to 1gbit? proxmox02:~# pveversion -v...

Thanks! proxmox02:/mnt/data2/images/101# qemu-img resize vm-101-disk-1.raw -- -1G Image resized.

Hello, I want to shrink my 200GB qcow disk to 32GB. I allready partitioned the disk with only 10GB of space, so now I just need to shrink the disk. When I use: qemu-img resize vm-102-disk-1.qcow2 +100G 100GB is added to the disk. Now I use: qemu-img resize vm-102-disk-1.qcow2 -100G And I...

Thanks for the quick answer. Ext3 solved the problem! I will continue using ext3 now. 101: Jun 23 17:59:01 INFO: Starting Backup of VM 101 (qemu) 101: Jun 23 17:59:02 INFO: running 101: Jun 23 17:59:02 INFO: status = running 101: Jun 23 17:59:02 INFO: backup mode: snapshot 101: Jun 23...

Hello, I have a 2x4 RAID10 setup (8 disks total). I installed Proxmox on the first RAID set, but now I want to add the second RAID set as extra storage for virtual machines. I fdisk the disk and create a LVM partition. Then I do this: pvcreate /dev/sdb1 vgcreate data2 /dev/sdb1 lvcreate -L...

As mentioned in the first post, it's set to AHCI

The drives are Samsung Spinpoint F3 series. 500GB and 1000GB are 7200RPM SATA disks with a 120MB/sec read for each stand-alone disk. The 2000GB is 5400RPM but also gets around 120MB/sec for each disk. Controllers are: 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 82801IR/IO/IH (ICH9R/DO/DH) 6 port...
