I have been trying to find a way to script things for VM creation/shutdown, and hookscripts seem close to what I have been looking for! https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#_hook_scripts However, in our workflow - we have multiple image templates setup (e.g. Windows 7, Windows...

Hi, I have a 3-node Proxmox and Ceph cluster. I am using Ceph RADOS for VM storage, and also CephFS to store some image templates. I can see the image templates under the first server - however, they are not seen under servers 3 and 4: I would have thought since CephFS is shared storage...

Hi, I'm running a 3-node Proxmox 5.4 cluster. I've setup some VMs with Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. I've installed the guest-agent package from the VirtIO driver disk, in the guest-agent directory: If I go into services.msc, I do see that the Qemu agent service is started...

Of course - here is the config file from /etc/pve/qemu-server - we tried creating two Windows 8.1. instances, and they both exhibit the same symptoms. Only difference between them is the version of virtio drivers installed: root@syd1:/etc/pve/qemu-server# cat 101.conf agent: 1 bootdisk: scsi0...

From Task Manager, it is svchost.exe - and I suspect it's the update process. I'm not sure what to do beyond that though.

Hi, I am running Proxmox 5.4-6 on a SuperMicro 1029-WT machine. (Actually a 3-node HA cluster). I have setup VMs using Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. After setup, I then went ahead to install Windows updates for each VM. For some reason, the Windows 8.1 VM is pegging the CPU at 100%...

Yup, correct, just the extra two nodes. I just wanted to make sure that adding them didn't affect the existing HA or Ceph between nodes 1-3. But you're saying it shouldn't, right? Do I need to do something to ensure that VMs don't get failed-over to them? (I believe they would run - but they...

Thanks for replying! I'm a bit confused though. Currently - I have a 3-node HA cluster (with Ceph across the same 3 nodes). If I lose one node - I still have management capabilities at the IP addresses for the remaining two nodes Are you saying that if I add two additional nodes, for a 5-node...

Hi, I currently have a 3-node Promox HA cluster, with a converged Ceph cluster also across those three nodes. I have an additional two machines I'd like to join the cluster, but purely for management - that is, they wouldn't be part of the HA cluster, or the Ceph cluster (They lack the Intel...

Hi, I'm trying to convert a physical Windows 7 machine into Proxmox 5.4. I have seen the wiki page here - https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migration_of_servers_to_Proxmox_VE On the Windows 7 machine, I ran the mergeide.reg file to import it. I then rebooted Windows, then shut it down. I then used...

@spirit - To clarify, when you ay you need a bridge in VM - this only applies when you're using ntopng Edge inside a VM, to filter for other VMs, right? As in, you don't need this bridge if you are simply passing through the NIC direct to the VM, right? The nfqueue and Proxmox firewall sounds...

Thanks for that - for our use case, the replication for backup seems interesting. Does that provide an easy way to backup an entire Proxmox OS to another remote ZFS server? However, on the con side - the lack of TRIM seems pretty bad. We will be installing on SSDs. How bad in the real world is...

I'm sorry, but I'm still finding this really confusing =(. If we use PCI passthrough fo the NICs - do we still need to assign them to a bridgein Proxmox? Or are they essentially "invisible" to Proxmox? There are two separate ways we were thinking of setting this up: First, for other physical...

Done! =)

Great - thanks for the tip. I have added emails to /root/.forward, and will see how it goes. Is there a way to test the .forward file? (From this earlier post, I found out you can use "sendmail" to test mail delivery itself - however, is there a way to also test this .forward file?) Also - is...

Hi, I'd like to contribute to the Proxmox wiki. Is this available to the public? (The Proxmox staff and some members here have been awesome with sharing knowledge, I'd like to try to give back). However, there doesn't seem to be a way to register to get an account? Does anybody know what you...

Hmm, OK, will see if I can setup some kind of auto-forward rule. One other question - I do currently seem to be getting alerts, but not sure how this is, as I don't recall setting up a SMTP server on my Proxmox node - I assume it just tries to send it from itself? It is possible to configure...

I was able to do this last night. Do you think this is worth documenting in the Proxmox wiki? First part was to remove the node from Ceph. From the Web UI, I went to Ceph, then Monitor, and removed the Ceph monitor daemon on that node. I then went to Ceph, CephFS, and removed the MDS (Metadata...

Hi, As of 2019 - what are the pros/cons of ZFS vs LVM for the Proxmox OS disk? (This won't be for actual VM disks - which we are storing on Ceph - or even for ISOs - stored on CephFS - but simply for the actual Proxmox system itself). Thanks, Victor

Should I remove the Ceph monitor from that node first? Or leave it here? What about the OSDs on that node? And also remove it from the Proxmox cluster as well? https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Cluster_Manager#_remove_a_cluster_node
