    Migration from vmware: prevent auto reboot on boot failure

    When I use "Freeze CPU at startup" the system will not boot. I just see "Guest as not ininitialized the display (yet)." and the "Start" button turns to "Resume". When I click "Resume" I'm back in the boot loop. So "Freeze CPU at startup" does not have the desired behavior. Despite it is a Linux...

    Migration from vmware: prevent auto reboot on boot failure

    What do you mean by "stop cpu flag"? Can't find some thing like this in the Qemu documentation. I've just moved the VMDK files in and converted them.

    Hi, I try to migrate a Linux VM from vmware to PVE. It starts booting but the boot fails and immediately reboots so I can't see any messages. Is there a way to tell Quemu to wait, regardless what happens? Any further hints for migration besides...

    W2016 VMs crash during backup

    Hi, I've two W2016 VMs on a single PVE 5.1-36 node. The first, a DC, crashed since the first backup during the backup. The backup most time completes. What I see is most likely a bluescreen but 95% of the console is black only about the first 5% are blue and nothing is readable. A reset does...

    Cluster Status

    Hi, as the "current" check_mk plugin for PVE clusters relies on "pvecm" output of PVE v2 (!) I want to do a rewrite of the plugin. I think "pvesh get /cluster/ha/status/current" and "pvesh get /cluster/ha/status/manager_status" may be a good starting point. I found no detailed documentation...

    Hi, I've a 3 node PVE 4.4-18 Cluster with Ceph Hammer and one day I want to upgrade to PVE 5, if possible in place. I've read that PVE 5 requires Ceph Luminous 12.2 and that Ceph has to be upgraded in advance. A post in the Ceph blog says, that 12.2 is released, so a upgrade may be possible...

    Install Windows 2016 Server on Proxmox VE (Video tutorial)

    I've tried today to install Window Server 2016 on the new PVE 5 (fresh install) and got stuck with disk drivers. I've tried virtio and scsi for the disk and the drivers version 0.1.126 und 0.1.139 (/vioscsi/2k16/amd64). Window tells me that there are no drivers found ... How to get this rolling ?

    [SOLVED] Replace cluster node

    Tanks for your Reply. As the node ist down any way at the moment I can replicate the disk using an other Linux system. The disk is a pure boot disk, there is no data (images etc.) on the disk. All data is stored in Ceph storage. How is the process when I'm not able to replicate the boot disk...
