Hi, I am running Proxmox 5.4-6 on a SuperMicro 1029-WT machine. (Actually a 3-node HA cluster). I have setup VMs using Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. After setup, I then went ahead to install Windows updates for each VM. For some reason, the Windows 8.1 VM is pegging the CPU at 100%...

Yup, correct, just the extra two nodes. I just wanted to make sure that adding them didn't affect the existing HA or Ceph between nodes 1-3. But you're saying it shouldn't, right? Do I need to do something to ensure that VMs don't get failed-over to them? (I believe they would run - but they...

Thanks for replying! I'm a bit confused though. Currently - I have a 3-node HA cluster (with Ceph across the same 3 nodes). If I lose one node - I still have management capabilities at the IP addresses for the remaining two nodes Are you saying that if I add two additional nodes, for a 5-node...

Hi, I currently have a 3-node Promox HA cluster, with a converged Ceph cluster also across those three nodes. I have an additional two machines I'd like to join the cluster, but purely for management - that is, they wouldn't be part of the HA cluster, or the Ceph cluster (They lack the Intel...

Hi, I'm trying to convert a physical Windows 7 machine into Proxmox 5.4. I have seen the wiki page here - https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migration_of_servers_to_Proxmox_VE On the Windows 7 machine, I ran the mergeide.reg file to import it. I then rebooted Windows, then shut it down. I then used...

@spirit - To clarify, when you ay you need a bridge in VM - this only applies when you're using ntopng Edge inside a VM, to filter for other VMs, right? As in, you don't need this bridge if you are simply passing through the NIC direct to the VM, right? The nfqueue and Proxmox firewall sounds...

Thanks for that - for our use case, the replication for backup seems interesting. Does that provide an easy way to backup an entire Proxmox OS to another remote ZFS server? However, on the con side - the lack of TRIM seems pretty bad. We will be installing on SSDs. How bad in the real world is...

I'm sorry, but I'm still finding this really confusing =(. If we use PCI passthrough fo the NICs - do we still need to assign them to a bridgein Proxmox? Or are they essentially "invisible" to Proxmox? There are two separate ways we were thinking of setting this up: First, for other physical...

Done! =)

Great - thanks for the tip. I have added emails to /root/.forward, and will see how it goes. Is there a way to test the .forward file? (From this earlier post, I found out you can use "sendmail" to test mail delivery itself - however, is there a way to also test this .forward file?) Also - is...

Hi, I'd like to contribute to the Proxmox wiki. Is this available to the public? (The Proxmox staff and some members here have been awesome with sharing knowledge, I'd like to try to give back). However, there doesn't seem to be a way to register to get an account? Does anybody know what you...

Hmm, OK, will see if I can setup some kind of auto-forward rule. One other question - I do currently seem to be getting alerts, but not sure how this is, as I don't recall setting up a SMTP server on my Proxmox node - I assume it just tries to send it from itself? It is possible to configure...

I was able to do this last night. Do you think this is worth documenting in the Proxmox wiki? First part was to remove the node from Ceph. From the Web UI, I went to Ceph, then Monitor, and removed the Ceph monitor daemon on that node. I then went to Ceph, CephFS, and removed the MDS (Metadata...

Hi, As of 2019 - what are the pros/cons of ZFS vs LVM for the Proxmox OS disk? (This won't be for actual VM disks - which we are storing on Ceph - or even for ISOs - stored on CephFS - but simply for the actual Proxmox system itself). Thanks, Victor

Should I remove the Ceph monitor from that node first? Or leave it here? What about the OSDs on that node? And also remove it from the Proxmox cluster as well? https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Cluster_Manager#_remove_a_cluster_node

Hi, Proxmox sends alert emails by default to root, for things like smartctl warnings (disk failures), and HA failover etc. Is it possible to setup a CC list for these alerts, so that it can email multiple people? Thanks, Victor

I plan on naming the node the same. How do I resolve the SSH key conflicts?

OK, I'm happy to reinstall Proxmox and rejoin. I noticed Proxmox 5.4 just came out - so we could create a new USB installer for that. This node was node #1 (i.e. the first node in the cluster) - but I assume that's not relevant now. I can the rejoin the Proxmox cluster. How about on the Ceph...

Right - so I can re-create the LVM setup, then use something like pvmove. I was thinking of doing ZFS, actually. Is there some way of re-installing via the ProxMox installer (to get partitions setup), then somehow overwriting it with the config from the old disk? Or is that a stupid idea?

I believe Cloudflare tunnel simply does this for performance reasons, and assumes the HTTP daemon can handle it. Not sure the priority - but will the Proxmox HTTP daemon ever handle chunked transfer encoding in the future?
