    Proxmox 4.4 node ignores SWAP setting.

    I have a Centos 7 CT with 2 GB swap limit. But when I boot into it, it shows me the host's 8 GB available for swap. Weird?

    High RAM usage in Proxmox 4.4

    I have 32 gb of memory which I shared in two CT's: 1. 2gb of RAM - Centos 6 for haproxy and nginx. 2. 29 gb of RAM - Centos 7 for Percona Cluster database. I've noticed high swapping on 29 gb VM in decided to stop it. And then I completely removed it from the system. When I SSH'ed into the...

    ZFS trim and over-provisioning support

    When installing I can only select ZFS Raid type and what disks to use. I can't select how much disk space should be used (I assume that the installer uses the whole pool). Or are you talking about something else here?

    ZFS trim and over-provisioning support

    Yep, that's what I've read by now as well. Do you think that making a cron job that would issue a TRIM command directly to the disks that run the ZFS Raid every week would solve the problem?

    ZFS trim and over-provisioning support

    Hi! I want to install proxmox on a group of SSD disks. I have a few questions. Does ZFS Raid support TRIM in Proxmox? I want to pool my 4 SSD drives into a Raid 0 pool. Is it possible to do "over-provisioning" (partition the space lower than the actual size of the drives)? From what I saw, the...

    Why does proxmox say 5gb is not enough for hdsize while it uses 1.3 gb in all my other installations

    I am installing on a SSD drive and trying to save up every GB I can. I tried 3, 5 gigabytes and it tells me that space is not enough AFTER I fill out all other information. I have to restart the server and go through the installation again. It's such a frustration. First of all, why do you say...

    bug in "pct restore"

    I am transferring a LXC between proxmox nodes. When I run "pct restore ..." on the new node the process fails at the end with "unable to open file /etc/pve/firewall/103.fw.tmp.11828' - No such file or directory" and the restore is cancelled. The solution is simple - run "mkdir...

    pct restore to lvm (how to restore lxc backup to a logical volume instead of raw image file)?

    Hello, I am moving a LXC from one Proxmox node to another. I keep my LXCs in LVM instead of raw images. Backup was fine. But when I did a "pct restore" on the new node it tried to restore my backup to a raw image file in /var/lib/vz/images instead. How can I properly restore a .lzo lxc backup...

    Warning!!! Do not use this solution - it will cause your proxmox to break - you will loose SSH access to your system. For some reason using autodev causes a bug to appear: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/pct-start-killed-my-whole-proxmox-server-again.26468/
