    Dell R730 with SSD's and SAS drives

    I have a Dell R730 with 2 x Enterprise 800GB SSD's and 6 x 1.2TB 12k SAS drives. I was planning on setting up 2 x 800GB SSD's in a ZFS mirror, 2 x 1.2TB SAS drives in a ZFS mirror and 4 x 1.2TB SAS drives in a ZFS RAID10 array. Which mirror should I install Proxmox on - the SSD's or the 1.2TB...

    [SOLVED] No configuration will enable IOMMU

    So does IOMMU work with the R630?

    $PATH in vzdump hook script not working

    Yeah - same as what I found above: export PATH=$PATH export HOME="/root" I just redefined existing ENV variables and it worked.

    Proxmox Helper Scripts

    Timers aren’t working in the change detection.io LXC. Container installs fine and everything seems to work but the scheduled checks never fire after the first one upon saving.

    $PATH in vzdump hook script not working

    Scheduled backup ran fine last night using the above kludge. Does anyone know why PATH=$PATH, redefining an EVN variable worked?

    $PATH in vzdump hook script not working

    I got the shell script running by defining $PATH within the shell script: #!/bin/bash PVE_NODE="$(hostname)" LOG_FILE="/mnt/ext_usb_01/$PVE_NODE.log" export PATH=$PATH export HOME="/root" if [ "$1" == "job-start" ]; then printf "$(date) PVE hook script start ($PVE_NODE) -...

    $PATH in vzdump hook script not working

    Thanks for the reply but I don’t think that’s it. The script runs fine if I call it from a cmd line, it fails when it’s called from Proxmox vzdump.

    $PATH in vzdump hook script not working

    Again - if I run the Perl script manually from the command line and pass in job-end it runs fine with no PATH issues. root@pve01:~# /etc/vzdump-hook.pl job-end GUEST HOOK: job-end Job is ending Using config: /root/.autorestic.yml Using lock: /root/.autorestic.lock.yml Backing...

    $PATH in vzdump hook script not working

    If I remove hard coded paths to the --restic-bin command it fails... It seems /usr/local/bin/autorestic is found without hardcoding path but when autorestic calls 'restic' it fails on PATH as well. tail: /mnt/ext_usb_01/pve01.log: file truncated Fri May 10 01:38:43 UTC 2024 PVE hook script...

    $PATH in vzdump hook script not working

    I have re-written the script in Perl and the same thing happens: Script: root@pve01:~# cat /etc/vzdump-hook.pl #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; print "GUEST HOOK: " . join(' ', @ARGV). "\n"; my $phase = shift; my $mode = shift; my $vmid = shift; if ($phase eq 'job-start') {...

    $PATH in vzdump hook script not working

    I have a hook script (bash shell script) that simply calls autorestic to perform an offsite backup of the locally dumped vzdump files. If I run my hook script from the command line (and specify job-end) it runs fine and the autorestic job runs: Thu May 9 11:45:47 PM UTC 2024 PVE hook script...

    8.2 has totally borked my Proxmox. GRUB timeout is 0 and I can't stop VM autostart

    Good idea but I've already rebuilt PVE and up and running again, sort of. This new version is causing a lot of weird issues for me. Previous install ran for over a year with no issue. I just had to go and upgrade it.....

    8.2 has totally borked my Proxmox. GRUB timeout is 0 and I can't stop VM autostart

    You would be correct, that's why I run the offsite restic backup.

    8.2 has totally borked my Proxmox. GRUB timeout is 0 and I can't stop VM autostart

    I mounted the OMV btrfs mirror with systemrescue and copied all the proxmox backups to an external USB drive. Looks like I am safe. I did have all the backups in restic offsite, just glad I didn't have to restore from there.

    8.2 has totally borked my Proxmox. GRUB timeout is 0 and I can't stop VM autostart

    I think my PVE issue is due to PCI passthru and I'd like to start up PVE to edit the cons file to stop the autostart so I can reconfigure. I (stupidly) had the GRUB timeout set to 0 and can't enter any sort of rescue mode to edit. I have tried booting with rescue USB but can't access any config...

    Encrypted backup 3x larger than unencrypted

    Turns out the size show in PBS is accurate and reflects exactly the same as the filesystem reports. I removed and recreated the datastore once more but this time as an ext4 file system. Now it only shows 270MB used. The reason I was looking at 21GB usage after creating the xfs file system was...

    Encrypted backup 3x larger than unencrypted

    This all started for me because I am look gin at syncing PBS backups over a WAN VPN link and was concerned about size of backups. Obviously that is not an issue now because I have proven to myself that the encryption makes no difference. But not sure why this disk size reporting is showing 3x...
