Thanks Udo. I have 450 PGs for this pool, which I thought would be plenty based on the calculators. Understand that data is not always distributed perfectly, but a 12% difference between the most and least used seems like a lot. Is that normal? It's manageable for now, but if it went up to...

I'm trying to increase the size of the C drive of a Windows 10 guest VM, which uses VirtIO drivers. I shut down the Windows guest and then resized the disk within Proxmox web UI, which went fine. After starting the guest back up, the disk still shows as the old size though, so I can't extend...

I have a 3-node Ceph cluster configured as per the Proxmox wiki. Each node has 3 SSDs, as shown in the attached screenshot of the OSDs (2x 1TB and 1x 240 / 250GB). I'm seeing quite a difference in usage between the drives; for example, osd.3 is 44.50% consumed, whereas osd.7 is just 32.07%...

Many thanks for all the suggestions, will definitely look into these. I am also considering just setting up a cheap stand alone Asterisk box and connecting the FXO to that - maybe even a Raspberry Pi could do the job...

Thanks for the clarifications dcsapak, good that I took advice here before pulling the trigger. Would you have any recommendations with regard to Network USB hub hardware that work with Linux / Proxmox VE?

We have a VM that we would like to attach a USB device to, using USB passthrough. However, it is also an important VM that must have minimal downtime, so we need to be able to live migrate it to other PVE cluster members when doing server upgrades etc. I would like to know if it is possible to...

Thanks for the advice Ashley and Udo - good to hear that Ceph won't do anything crazy should a node fail, and thank you for pointing me in the direction of docs so I can better understand this. We will make sure to keep a generous amount of space to spare to avoid any issues during failures...

We have a cluster of 3 Proxmox servers and use Ceph as underlying storage for the VMs. It's fantastic and hasn't given us any trouble so far. As our usage rises and available capacity dimishes, I'm starting to wonder what actually happens in the event of a failure. I'm not too worried about an...

Final update: Scheduled backup ran normally on the original node after rebooting it.

Update: I moved the VM to another node in the cluster and re-ran the backup. It completed successfully, so I'll put it down to an issue with the original node. I rebooted it, will see tomorrow if the backup job completes successfully on the original node.

I'm having an issue backing up a VM since reverting to a snapshot. A few days ago, I took a snapshot, installed some invasive updates into the VM OS, which went wrong, so I reverted to the snapshot. It went ok, although the VM showed as red for some time, before correcting itself. Since then...

I was having this issue too. My solution was to install ONLY ntp and set a local (LAN) NTP server in /etc/ntp.conf, then restarting the ntp service. Do not install ntpdate (see below). After that, timedatectl status shows NTP enabled: yes After a few minutes all servers were back in sync...

Thank you, this worked without incident. Now I have backup space.

During Proxmox VE 4.3 install to a 240 GB SSD drive, default install parameters were used, so we ended up with a pve data volume of around 150 GB: --- Logical volume --- LV Name data VG Name pve LV UUID KFelnS-3YiA-cUzZ-hemx-eK3r-LzwB-eFw2j4...

I have a 3-way Proxmox VE cluster with Ceph as shared storage. I wanted to do some Ceph benchmarks on my pool. On one of the monitors (prox3), it runs fine: root@prox3:~# rados bench -p ceph 20 rand sec Cur ops started finished avg MB/s cur MB/s last lat(s) avg lat(s) 0 0...

I have the same issue and it has left me in a serious pickle. Help needed!

I solved my own issue. For anyone in a similar situation: It is possible to dd an existing image straight to the LVM device under /dev/[name_of_volume_group]/vm-xxx-disk-x In my case, I copied my image from my old server to a USB stick mounted to /mnt on proxmox, then did: dd...

I'm trying to migrate images from a KVM server to Proxmox. I've seen all the recommendations that I enable image storage on local (not local-lvm), then copy the image there, then attach it to my VM. The problem is my local storage is too small to accommodate the images I need to import. I...

We are currently using 2 identical KVM servers which are manually managed (not Proxmox). We want to move to a 3-node HA Proxmox PVE cluster using Ceph for storage. We only have 3 identical servers in total (2 of which are currently in use), and are looking for a way to migrate to the new...
