I have old backups for VMs that I have since deleted. Can I just safely delete the folders under /mnt/datastore_name/VMID ? A lot of backups so command line is what I am trying to do.

Found it! qm guest cmd 1017 network-get-interfaces | jq '.[1] | ."ip-addresses" | .[0] | ."ip-address"' "10.1.0.76"

Yes, the element I am trying to look at is called "hardware-address". I have so much to learn about JSON and addressing. Please tolerate on more question... So given this: # qm guest cmd 1017 network-get-interfaces | jq '.[1] | ."ip-addresses"' [ { "ip-address": "10.1.0.76"...

I'm trying to create a script that will output the MAC and IP addresses from the VMs on this host. "qm guest cmd 1017 network-get-interfaces | jq ." will generate a valid JSON file. But when I try to address the element "hardware-address" all I get is errors like this: # qm guest cmd 1017...

So I have backup jobs set up on the Proxmox GUI, under Datacenter and backups. Each of these jobs has retention settings defined. So is setting up a scheduled Prune job in PBS really needed?

I created a Linux user called "admin" and put it into the "root" group". I created a user in the Proxmox UI called admin and put it into the "admins" group. I log with the admin account and the "Upgrade" button is grayed out. If I login as "root", the "Upgrade" button is not grayed out. I even...

In the GUI, I select Datacenter, then permissions and users. Then "add". I type in the user name and select PAN as the realm. In group I select "admins" then hit "Add". I select the user I just created and press "Password". I type in the password (twice) then hit "OK". The I get the "user 'XXXX'...

Proxmox 8.1.4 - So I created a new user successfully. I select the user and press "Password" and type in a new password. I get an error that says: change password failed: user 'xxxxxxxxx' does not exist (500) The user is there so what is the real problem? I am using the "root" account.

ESXi is usually used for the Free version. vSphere is the paid version of VMware's hypervisor. Anyone know if the migration tools works for VMs using the paid vSphere?

Turning off memory hotplug is a work around. Still happening in Proxmox 8.1.4.

https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1426

Turning off memory hotplugging allows the VM to start. Is there a limit to how much memory is allowed for hotplugging?

I have created a VM through the GUI and using "qm create" and "qm set". I want to assign it 64 GB of memory. Here is the conf file: agent: 1 bios: seabios boot: order=scsi0;ide2;net0 cores: 4 cpu: host hotplug: disk,cpu,memory,network ide2: truenas:iso/golden2.iso,media=cdrom,size=1011M memory...

Also tried " pvesm alloc Ceph 998 vm-998-disk-0 41G" to create the disk but got the same error on import.

Doing this all on the command line to create a VM on a Ceph storage. Hoping this is a simple fix. qm create ... qemu-img create rbd:Ceph/vm-998-disk-0 41G Formatting 'rbd:Ceph/vm-998-disk-0', fmt=raw size=44023414784 When I run the following command, I get this error: # qm disk import 998...

Thanks!

Getting almost the same error message on Proxmox 8.1.4: memory size (65536) must be aligned to 2048 for hotplugging

Will this tool import VSphere VMs? (not ESXi)
