    Missing VM file

    Do you use the same share on multiple separate PVE instances? If you use the same share in a cluster everything should be okay. If you have separate PVE instances, not clustered, you should never share the exact same network storage. Use different shares in that case. Each PVE instance (if...

    Can you open a new thread (to not pollute this one) and show the output of the command apt update?

    ZFS and over provisioning?

    ah okay, that's what you mean. Well, as I said, you can create partitions yourself and use those to create the zpool. But honestly, if you fear that your SSDS won't last, check out the TBW or DWPD values in the specs of your SSDs to get an idea how long they will probably last. Additionally you...

    ZFS and over provisioning?

    How does some free space at the end of the disc help you with over provisioning? What is usually meant with over provisioning is that you you can have VM disks which when summed up are larger than the underlying storage. This works as long as they don't all use all their space. Once you hit the...

    tcp/8007

    Or, as netstat isn't installed that often nowadays, you can use ss -tulpn.

    How / where is VM configuration stored? (for disaster recovery, loss of rpool, etc.)

    If you use the integrated backup tool (vzdump on the CLI) and create backups of your guests, you will have all needed configs for that guest. Try restoring a backup to a new VMID and it will all be there. The PVE node specific settings are all found at /etc/pve (even the VM configs) and the...

    Scub Scan on PVE 6.2.9.

    EIn Scrub läuft immer jeden zweiten Sonntag im Monat und nicht intelligent nach einam Ausfall. Da hast du nur gerade ziemliches "Glück" gehabt, dass sich das zeitlich überlappt. Ist die Maschine in der Nacht gelaufen? Ansonsten mag es sein, dass der Scan beim starten heute nachgeholt wurde da...

    How do I add PBS to PVE?

    Did you create a user with permissions on the datastore backups? I don't see any in the pvesm command.

    NAS on Proxmox

    I'm curious which feature beside Samba/NFS shares you use. If all I need is to export some paths as NFS/Samba share and want ZFS, doing it bare metal and manually editing the config files where needed is fine in my opinion. PVE for my home server is a mainly Debian based Linux distribution...

    NAS on Proxmox

    I personally just installed Samba directly on the PVE node and set the config file and samba users manually. As you I think that the whole passing through disks to a NAS distribution like FreeNAS is too complicated. The only other way would be to create a normal VM and use that as network...

    deleted a volume group, but still see it in gui

    Is it still configured under Data center -> Storage? Try to remove it there otherwise PVE will look for it and not find it, thus the unknown status

    moved a disk and baffled by reported disk use now

    Did you enable the "Thin provision" checkbox for the new storage? If it is not enabled the reservations are set on the ZFS volumes.

    Bond Bridge to Proxmox

    If you need the VLANs only for guests and not the node itself you could just create the bond, then use the bond for the bridge. AFAIU VLAN 1 is usually the one you get untagged from your switch. You can define the VLAN used for the guest in the settings of the NIC. If you need to define more...

    [SOLVED] Where is the space in ZFS?

    To avoid that you can configure the storage to not auto create the directory and to mark it as a mountpoint. Not sure though if it can be done via the GUI or needs to be done via the CLI / config file. Best check the docs on storages and what options can be set.

    Recommendation for free memory for a node

    The OOM killer will become active and kill a process, usually a VM as they a good targets with their high RAM usage ;) Though you might have other mechanisms that can free up RAM to some degree. ZFD for example might use quite a bit of RAM for caching but will free it when needed.

    How to... 1 IP... 3 or 4 MV like Independent?

    You do need to setup a reverse proxy on one machine that will then forward requests to the actual machines. This is usually done depending on the domain. So you can setup multiple (sub) domains and all point to the reverse proxy. There are plenty of guides on how to set up reverse proxies. It...

    What is exactly that "replication" do?

    It does exactly that. Replicate the VMs disk to the other node. You can then enable it to be HA so that if the one node fails, it will be booted on the other. Each node in a cluster has the configurations of all guests so the failover node can take ownership of the guest as long as it has...

    zfs performance

    dd'ing from /dev/zero with compression on shows how fast your CPU can deliver zeros, compress them and how much metadata around it actually needs to be written to disk ;) If you want to do benchmarking checkout fio which will do benchmarking well and give you better insight into IOPS and...
