    container sshd connection issue after lxc id remapping

    After much trial and error, and trying to read the corresponding parts of https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Unprivileged_LXC_containers I came here and found this to be correct. As the previous user I'd been trying with UID 1000, and got similar errors as above. Changed to 1005 and suddenly it...

    change LXC from unprivileged back to privileged

    Ok, that was a bit weird ... I restored it through the GUI and it chooses CT itself. I just tried again and this time it went through. When I tried yesterday it threw a whole bunch of errors so I'm not sure whats different today. For the "unpriviliged" error, it was because of my misspelling...

    change LXC from unprivileged back to privileged

    I was in a similar situation and backed up the CT, however on restore I get the error vm 0 - unable to parse value of 'unpriviliged' - unknown setting 'unpriviliged' Any chance of recovering this CT ?

    Hetzner servers with Proxmox are unsable

    I can only answer for myself. The Proxmox ISO provided by my DC installs Proxmox with LVM and RAID-0 instead of ZFS.

    [SOLVED] How to configure serial / terminal to connect to a VM guest from the PVE host?

    Actually the explanation in https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2343595 also works for Debian. Problem is it has a lot of funny characters in it like [ ] which doesn't work with VNC, at least not with a danish keyboard. Luckily all you need to do is login to VNC and start the process...

    [SOLVED] How to configure serial / terminal to connect to a VM guest from the PVE host?

    For Debian, I think all you need to do is hit esc, then add ":install console=ttyS0" at the boot prompt. Problem is I don't see the boot prompt in proxmox.

    [SOLVED] How to configure serial / terminal to connect to a VM guest from the PVE host?

    I use this when I need to connect to a VM through the console for whatever reason. What I'd like to know, is possible to use this to install VM's? Normally when I create a VM, it opens up in VNC, and I can't find any way to get it to open in the serial console - even if I create the serial...

    Install RancherOS on Proxmox on OVH/SyS network

    After many hours of trial an error.... By adding a serial port to the VM (vm > hardware > add > serial port) I was able to connect through the xterm.js console instead, which supports copy paste, and was able to add my public key. That in itself didn't help anything though, as I still need to...

    Install RancherOS on Proxmox on OVH/SyS network

    Part of installing RancherOS you need to add your public key to a cloud-init file, and that is a lot of keys to type in the VNC terminal that doesn't allow copy/paste - and you can't ssh in until this has been done. Catch-22. Now I see that Proxmox supports Cloud-init, which as far as I...

    docker in lxc container

    Having the same problem here. Ran the "modprobe overlay" on the host, verified presense in the container, but docker still fails with a not-very-helpful error message: Oct 18 22:57:31 docker2 systemd[1]: Starting Docker Socket for the API. Oct 18 22:57:31 docker2 systemd[1]: Listening on...

    [SOLVED] Move VM storage from local to vmdata?

    I created a VM on storage:local instead of storage:vmdata by mistake. Is there a way to move it? I guess it also needs to be changed/converted from qcow2 to raw? # pvesm status Name Type Status Total Used Available % local dir...

    limit size for poolz/vz subvol to prevent snapshots from taking up all disk space

    My Proxmox install is on ZFS, and I have a couple of zvols: Unfortunately I didn't realize at the time that it would be a good idea to limit the space for /var/lib/vz so snapshots don't accidentally take up all the diskspace. This now happened, and after having cleaned up, I was wonder if it...

    Migration OpenVZ to LXC problems

    Unfortunately migrating to a newer OS is not possible at this time, so if it is not possible to create a working template from an ISO I guess I will just have to keep it in an OpenVZ system in a VM. Not optimal but works.

    Migration OpenVZ to LXC problems

    Sorry, I mean Centos 6 - is the oldest one. I need to get it running on the original version. At the moment I do it by running an OpenVZ server in a VM, but it's kind of a clunky solution.
