Re: Getting started with PVE storage model - software RAID5 array and storage concept How would you RAID them at the pve host level? Standard mdadm config like I am used to in Slackware?

I dont know if I should slap myself in the face or not but some packages in pfsense were causing troubles... thats why the node couldnt access the web. As to why the changes made to the network config were reversed (auto ethX lines removed and vmbr2 not being created at boot time) , I have no...

Absolutely! As a matter of fact, I just removed the gateway in the node management bridge (vmbr0), checked "autostart" for all eth devices as I want, and rebooted the node. Booted right back up with all ethX devices activated at boot, and the VM's start just fine, no more strange errors like...

I just tried implementing the modifications discussed in the previous post (adding the pfsense LAN iP to the vmbr0 as gateway) and same problem: lines "auto ethX" are being removed from the interface config file by proxmox which results in bridges not auto starting, and VM's not starting...

You will soon realize that I have very little understanding and experience with networks... Right now: vmbr0 (eth0) is set to static 192.168.0.2 with subnet 255.255.255.0 in proxmox and gateway pointing to pfsense's LAN IP (192.168.0.100) vmbr1 (eth1) is set to no IP or subnet in proxmox...

Re: Getting started with PVE storage model - software RAID5 array and storage concept I tried with 'scsi' (from the vm.conf man page) instead of 'ide' but I get a kernel panic with CentOS VM... looks like sata only goes up to 5 (including 0) so provides 6 possible SATA devices... A bit...

Hello, So following up my "debuts" with proxmox, I am now trying to grasp the concepts and storage model of PVE. First of all, I'd like to add a bunch of SATA drives (6 of them) that were previously assembled as a software RAID 5 array under Slackware Linux. I would like to reassemble them...

Same problem here on a dual socket Opteron 4334 server running with a SUpermicro H8DCL-iF motherboard. I only use (for now) the local storage created at install.. Have you found the root cause or solution?

My excitement was short lived.... Ive been playing around with proxmox for the better part of the day now, and Ive come to numerous issues. You may recognize some of them, if so, please share how you overcame them.. 1. When all is fine (VM can get an IP from the pfsense VM, physical hosts...

Working now!!!! And its faster than with my old dedicated pfsense box! :) I will keep an eye on the server to see if its stable enough to use for production but so far its rock solid (touching wood..) Is there any security implications that I should be aware of? I mean now that my...

pirateghost, you already helped quite a lot, please take your time, I will patiently wait!

OK this time I really hit a wall... everything works, except proxmox vmbr1 (connected to my modem = WAN) is not getting a public IP from my ISP... THerefore pfsense WAN has no valid IP (0.0.0.0). I have searched on the proxmox wiki but its rather incomplete so I could not get past this...

I got almost everything up & running except that for some reasons, pfsense cant reach the WAN (the outside).. In pfsense, WAN has an IP of 0.0.0.0...... Also I can get an IP from the pfsense VM but I cant reach the outside. I believe something is wrong in proxmox's config.. Can someone...

I dont know why my posts are so screwed up... My line returns are not being parsed by the forum and every line gets appended to the previous one making a mess. Sorry for this....

OK progressing.... Slowly but surely So I got the trick to install pfsense without messing around with boot options. Turned out, there is a bug in the kvm driver for freebsd hosts when running AMD CPU's (physical ones of course). See...

OK some progress! First of all, I reconfigured the node as this: vmbr0 (eth0) is set to 192.168.0.100 and is physically connected to my network switch so I can access Proxmox's web interface from my LAN as desired vmbr1 (eth1) doesnt have an IP and is physically connected to my cable modem...

Hey pirateghost! I have 6 eth devices (supermicro board has eth0 & eth1), and a Intel PRO/1000 Quad NIC has eth2 to eth5 I want to use eth0 for the WAN (incoming from cable modem), eth1 as LAN (going to my switch and then computers), and eth2 for WAN. Can I safely reassign eth0 to the bridge...

Thanks for replying! I am not fully understanding your reply. So how would bridges work for the pfsense VM? I am not sure how bridges work. So why do proxmox creates a bridge (vmbr0) using eth0 right after the install? Can I use eth devices directly and assign these to VM's or do I have to...

Hello ! First of all, let me congratulate the Proxmox dev team for the wonder that Proxmox is!! Unbelievable! After several weeks (months) searching for the ideal hypervisor for my home/small office server, I have decided to opt for Proxmox. So far things have been fairly smooth and easy...
