I never said I was 100% sure. But I am old-school kind of guy. I remember things that today may not be true anymore but may still hold merits. MIxing disks in the same pool can be troublesome especially on a root pool. So , personally, I preffere to err on a side of caution. In my setup I run...

No. If I remeber correctly you can not mix disk size in vdevs as it will not work. You can use different size vdevs but only with raidZ and mirror setups and you still lose the data recovery guaranty on disk failure. I do not remember 100% but zfs replace command will do everything you need to...

Fyi. You can use virtuo. It just takes a bit more effort. You use sata first boot the windows and install update the virtuo drivers inthe windows. Than you change the disk to virtuo. And it should work.

You do not need to do anything with new drives. Zfs will do all by itself. However you may not see all the space you adding. Mgs can not accomodate different size disks within the same pool. So until all drives are the same size you will only get a sum of space equal to the smallest device. So...

Try changing disk type to sata. Some Windows 10 builds have bad support5 for virtuo disks.

You still need to interact with install for a few answers here and there. A fully unattended setup is possible but you will need something like FOG server and a specially prepared iso.

What do you mean headless? It should have a video out or IPMI ay very least. You can plug a cheap video card in it do the install and than take the card out. Or do install via ipmi. My home server has video but I do a lot of thing via Ipmi. Just too lazy to go to the basement every time.

Now onto the topic. Once you have the proxmox setuped. You will have a vbridge on one or several nics. Now when you configure VMs you add the vnic to it and set the bridge ad the port. When vm is booted and OS installed it will have its own up provided you have proper router and dhcp on your...

I am confused. Why vm will not boot? And what this have to do with networking and bridges?

I think you missunderstood. OP wants to rub gui on the host not in VMs. Ofcourse you can run fui in vm. But op want to use the same machine for server/vm and workstation. Possible but not recommended.

no can do. had a power failure over the weekend and shut down the server. it is back at blinking cursor again. I managed to take off all of my data when it was working. but not backups vm configs and other configuration. I guess I will have to start from scratch. lucky I only have 2 LXC setup...

What is ipmi_si? I have managed to boot everything using one of the older kernels from advanced menu. Any 4.15.18 kernels hinge on boot. I managed to boot a 14.15.17 And it have been up for the last month. No issues. It is something in 4.15.18 kernel. I even did the whole server overhaul New...

I have a very strange question. Why do you use a template to setup? What advantage it has over direct install from proxmox iso?

The problem very well may be in a new kernel. I for example have problem specifically with newer kernel. That is why I suggested OP tries older setup.

Try interupt the boot on blue screen and select an older kernel under advanced option if available. I currently have similar issue on my supermicro setup and I can only boot it using 4.17 kernel Any .18 option gose into black screen with white cursor blinking. Or better yet. Get an older...

Try searching the forum for uefi install. Therr is a thread describing a workaround for people having issues instaling with uefi bios. It is a convoluted process though. Maybe gojng the Debian to Proxmox is a simpler way.

If possible get a CD/DVD drive and use thay. I have a supermicro box that will not boot of a sub as well. Yes any other os works. Windows works. Ubuntu and debian works. But proxmox will not boot of usb. Usb DVD works well. Try it if you can.

Why do I need raspberry pi setup? What does it gain me over a simple usb disk for backup. If you read my post here. I have a 5tb usb disk that is connected and mounted on the host. I run rsynck to drop everything there. I also dupe all my user data on second zfs pool within the server. My daya...

Ok so I understand this correctly, I need to create a directory and than set it as a local store with type backup. That point proxmox backup for each vm/container to that store. What about the system config? Will this work for vm/containers that use zfs volume as system disks? I will try it...

while I totally agree with this, it is very difficult to find alternatives for business use unless most of your customers and business associates do the same. I am an IT professional and for years have been balancing user friendly vs usable apps and services. I have been running Linux at home...
