Hi, this is a bit of an insane question, but anyhow. I've got a client with a legacy proxmox host with some legacy containers Proxmox itself was updated over time. The legacy service VM were left behind, some are running CentOS v6.3 I was able to do some trickery to get the CentOS VM 6.3...

As a footnote. To some extent I feel like the advent of the excellent PBS feature set - has made some of this stuff less pressing to some folks (ie, me and my clients for sure). Generally my client base are happy if I've got them setup on a "Primary proxmox" which is backed up to a local PBS <>...

Hi, thank you for the replies! I agree that - once you get onto a working config (be it EXT4, ZFS, or other) - you need some motivation to change "if it ain't broke don't fix' sort of - to some extent that is my situation, I have a vanilla OVH Proxmox MD Raid config that 'just works fine' and...

Also for clarity, I am quite certain that there are excellent situations where ZFS makes great sense for proxmox. Clearly ZFS is integrated in proxmox for quite a long time now, is well supported, and lots of people use it. I've still remained under the impression (possibly purely my ignorance)...

Hi, OK - I will comment - I was not trying to get into discussion of ZFS, rather was trying to get info about BTRFS. But.... The last time I tested ZFS (definitely more than a few years ago), I found that there were 'behind the scene performance issues' associated with filesystem activity "some...

Hi, I am curious to ask. I've bumped into BTRFS over the last few years and most of the time avoided it in favour of EXT4. Just because - use case was not there, and trust was also not yet there. I'm now mindful that BTRFS is less young and sharp on the edges maybe (ie, less prone to randomly...

For what it is worth (I am posting back to thread >2 years after my earlier post in 2022) -- I have a number of clients on proxmox 'in office' and I have PBS-offsite. And generally I have topology of PBS onsite with the proxmox onsite box, and then PBS offsite <> does a sync to pull data from...

Ah, lovely, thank you! I had clearly totally missed this distinction. I've set his permission to the PBS datastore to be "PVEDatastoreUser " and now it works perfectly. Just superb. Thanks!!

for clarity here are some snips to show what is currently working, albeit a bit over permissive I think in terms of access allows user 'alan' to manage VM designated as admin(is ok) but alllows user 'alan' full view on the PBS datastore indicated (over permissive but tolerable) Tim

Hi, thank you Fabian for the reply! I think I may have figured out - let me know your thought? In attempting to set this up I allocated permission onto a single VM specifically (only) for the user being setup. I only just now added a similar permission control onto the PBS datastore shown in...

Hi, I am curious, I am gently banging my head on this same topic today, ~a year later (Aug.2024) and I'm curious if there is a way to do this so it works, via the webUI admin interface only? my scenario, is that I'm trying to grant one person admin access onto a single VM on a single proxmox...

Footnote, I realize that the wondershaper version available in debian via apt-get is old (v1.x not v2.x) and the flags are different between these versions / and some folks online suggest v1-older has 'issues' maybe. I did find today that after things were throttled - the inbound data rate to...

Hi Fabian, thank you for pointing this out. For sure the built-in traffic control is the clean way to do this. I realize now as I look, this client is setup on old not latest PBS version. I need to get them updated. Ugh. The version they are running lacks this traffic control. Definitely...

Hi, in case this is helpful for other people, (or for me to find this hint in future :) ) I've got a basic client site config with Proxmox server onsite at office PBS server onsite at office PBS server offsite in data centre in nearby city / for offsite data sync from PBS_onsite replication of...

Hi just to followup, for clarity, there is no patch and no pinning with the workaround I am using. Simply make sure your kernel boot parameters set in /etc/default/grub and then designate pcie=noaer as a required option. Then rebuild your grub boot config file / update grub / and then...

OK! yes - I agree - it seems this flag is a good workaround, but ultimately there is some underlying problem that should be addressed if possible. I am not sure but it seems like next steps would be (a) Someone who is familiar with PCIE Debug will review the logs I captured (b) they might spot...

Footnote, I unpinned and was able to boot, with the revised boot stanza thus: dmesg hint tells me: [ 0.000000] Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-6.5.11-8-pve root=UUID=5b7d97ba-41f2-4b1f-8b38-ba885925c617 ro nomodeset iommu=pt console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 pci=noaer...

Hi, I only just tried this now, added the kernel boot stanza, pci=noaer and now it boots, and it works, I am using the pinned 'older' kernel I will try without pinning and see if it still works below are pastebin links for lspci and dmesg output from the successful boot in case of interest...

Hi, OK, I just got the content, it is in pastebin, there are 3 different paste due to size before lspci > https://pastebin.com/eZuddMG0 after lspci > https://pastebin.com/RRDsDYAy dmesg after > https://pastebin.com/z07BJ8mY please let me know if this is more useful / and possibly if you see...

I will see what I can do. It means rebooting the box again temporarily in rescue mode to get the captures off that are generated when it has no network. Will do so and update after that. Tim
