    Upgrading cluster / moving iSCSI

    Whats weird is that when I boot up a guest off the same iscsi lun on PVE4.x, Windows will pop up that message "Getting Devices Ready" and then once it boots into the GUI, it runs the new hardware wizard. Odd huh?

    Insane load on PVE host

    Oh I totally agree, I will never doubt PVE. :) Thanks for the great advice on units. I do remember that but was flaky on its usage. So get this, I migrated to another host, and it picked right up. Perhaps the hardware config of this guest wasnt compatible with the host, and / or other VMs on...

    Insane load on PVE host

    Yes the windows guest VM is pegged, I see a explorer.exe in suspended status. I'm trying to find the cause of it all, it was working great, and then one night just pegged.

    Insane load on PVE host

    Check this out guys, I've got a pretty beefy host, that normally runs under 1 load. I have a Windows 2012 R2 VM doing something, I can't pin point yet (youre help would greatly appreciated with any tips), but when this host gets fired up the PVE host load climbs to 10-12 completely slowing down...

    Upgrading cluster / moving iSCSI

    Oh yea, 100% sure. My iscsi naming convention is pretty bullet proof. I havent checked the blkid, but that was my next intention when I get some time. I was mainly wondering, is the PVE 4.x kernel that much different that by guests would think they have all new hardware?

    Upgrading cluster / moving iSCSI

    I would love to do it that way, but no I do not run iSCSI over LVM. I have a Nimble storage SAN and the iscsi volumes have a very aggressive snapshot schedule for DR and replication. That said, I have to run iscsi direct to the VMs. I do love Proxmox, I'm in no way bashing it, I would assume...

    Upgrading cluster / moving iSCSI

    Hello there, I am planning my upgrade from 3.x to 4.x. Ive read alot of the blog posts and they all recommend a full server backup and restore. I however have shared storage using iSCSI so I was hoping I could just remove the old VM from the host, remove the iSCSI from the old host, setup the...

    Converting a VMDK produces wrong size phenomenon?

    Hello! I used VMWare converter to create a VMDK file of a server I am converting to proxmox raw. The initial server is only 93GB used, but the actual real volume is 931GB. When I create the VMDK file and copy it to the proxmox host for converting it comes in as 93GB, but when I convert to raw...

    @ppo Thats interesting. I use one server to manage my cluster. One server that I use to create VM's, manage, and console through.

    VNC console error

    Perhaps a fix! I went to my proxmox host, /etc/pve/ and download the pve-root-ca.pem and then opened it in Mac. I then got the option to always trust this server and novnc works!

    How to add storage to a new host in the cluster?

    Hmm ... this made no difference either! I do have an idea though, but I'm not at the data center for a few more days. I am going to try just copying the iscsi config files from a good node and then reboot this host. I'll let you know whats up!

    How to add storage to a new host in the cluster?

    Ok fair enough ... so ... I had 4 hosts in the cluster all part of the iSCSI storage. I built two new servers using the same version as the other four, and joined the cluster the correct way. "pvecm add x.x.x.x" and it did run through the entire process as I am used to. Then these two new...

    How to add storage to a new host in the cluster?

    Yes, this is an iSCSI box with open permissions. Whats weird is the /etc/iscsi directory doesn't contain any of connections that the other servers have. Could I just copy those from one to the other?

    Resizing LVM group on top of ISCSI

    BUMP. Can anyone explain why I have so many duplicate PV? I am running into this problem again where I need to resize the PV but these duplicates aren't allowing it to work. Thanks! EDIT: I tried to find the duplicate entries and even did commands like "pvresize /dev/sdo /dev/sdn" since sdo...
