Hi, I'm thinking about using Proxmox for a SOHO VDI setup. So no Citrix/VMWare Horizon/WhatSoEver but just a hand full (~10) plain Windows VMs accessed via Windows RDP or maybe SPICE and this also only via LAN (and the office in question even has 10GbE fiber laid out). The requirement for this...

Thanks for the info and link, I will not switch then as everything runs really smooth :)

I'm not so sure about the "mainly" part here. I was logging the output of my shell scripts which used `zfs` directly very long as well and the only "unexpected" errors which I ever came across where the "dataset busy" errors I also mentioned above. But those were super rare and when this...

I’m running a fairly active but small budget Proxmox cluster for circa one year now. Meaning depending on the current project workload it only consists of 3-4 nodes and uses ZFS due to its replication capabilities which allow nearly HA-like failover times (5 to 10 minutes in my case) with a...

Hi, one of my projects uses a Proxmox unicast cluster at Hetzner. A few month ago Hetzner introduced vSwitches and from my first impression they work very well. Meanwhile all cluster nodes have a bridged interface on a shared vSwitch which is also already used for all VMs. On this interfaces...

I had some more time for this and found a solution for me. `pvesh` can be used to script adding the clone (commands can be obtained by watching the PUT request headers of the web GUI for example on /api2/extjs/nodes/node/qemu/102/config). So after I manually added the clone one time to the...

Hmm I'm not sure if I'm missing something but when you suggest doing this form the host, how should it work with file systems the host can't handle? I just tried this really quick for Ubuntu LVM images (which most of my VMs are) and this probably will work (I see the partitions etc) but for my...

So I think I'll go for the approach with zfs clone, however I'm still struggling a bit with automating it (see below). Also it would be easier if I could access the VM snapshots on file level (from within their VM, another VM or the Proxmox host; it wouldn't matter) but I think this cannot be...

That is eve4pve-autosnap: https://github.com/EnterpriseVE/eve4pve-autosnap/blob/master/eve4pve-autosnap Code looks quite well-arranged to me and basically it's not doing more than creating a cron for each label (hourly, daily, weekly) which then takes a snapshot and has a retention policy. As...

Sure, see below. The failed VMs yesterday were 113 and 114. hdds-sb is a cifs network share for all install ISOs and templates and an additional qcow2 image for "low I/O" content but this is only attached to 112 so shouldn't affect the rest. Currently everything is running fine since the...

I'm currently looking for a way to mount a snapshot (local ZFS storage) of a VM disk read only in another VM. My best find so far is this article about moving virtual disks: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Moving_disk_image_from_one_KVM_machine_to_another . But this involves a lot of renaming...

I'm getting a very similar error for two of my VMs in my cluster when using the GUI replication feature. Only difference is that I don't have and "I/O error" for the second "cannot send" line but in my case it is "Broken pipe". And "Broken pipe" repeats for every snapshot of the VM (I have more...

Okay, that clarifies most. As I wasn't interested in containers very much I haven't looked further than VMs : p Now I guess it will work well with ZFS replication but am not 100% sure? And I'm also not sure if I should add some manual delay...

I'd like to automate snapshotting in my zfs based small cluster where every VM has replication enabled. The schedule should also have a pruning logic. Basically https://github.com/EnterpriseVE/eve4pve-autosnap/blob/master/eve4pve-autosnap pretty much looks like what I want. However the author...

I thought I did ;-) tl;dr removed the whole `interface` stanza in the corosync.conf Edit: Oh and regarding GRE tunnels vs tinc also this is a little ot: I dropped the whole idea of having all VMs in a single subnet. Instead I gave every host a pfSense VM with a unique subnet for the hosts VMs...

@Alwin that lead to the solution, only it had 'too much' ;-) Some more googling in that direction revealed that this error can be misleading as it also happens when you try to connect a server from a subnet that differs from those of the interface stanza `bindnetaddr`. And this was the case for...

Hi there, I'm currently trying to setup a 3-host cluster in a datacenter where multicasting isn't possible (Hetzner) so after I read about UDPU in https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Multicast_notes and some tests locally I was fairly positive that this is going to work. However I only was possible to...
