    thin LVM possible over LVM-raid

    When needing to set up a thinpool over LVM RAID1, these 4 liners have always worked for me. pvcreate /sda5 /sdb5 vgcreate vg-b /dev/sda5 /dev/sdb5 lvcreate --type raid1 -m 1 -l 97%FREE -n proxthin vg-b lvconvert --type thin-pool --poolmetadatasize 1024M --chunksize 128 vg-b/proxthin Done...

    unified_cgroup_hierarchy?

    Answering my question has proved to be easier than I'd thought :) Just add this to /etc/default/grub to activate cgroupv2 in PVE 6.4 (caution: this will deactivate cgroupv1) GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=1" save the file, then issue this command: update-grub ; reboot Done.

    unified_cgroup_hierarchy?

    With the latest kernel in PVE 6.4 (5.4.114-1), is it possible or even safe to turn on the unified_cgroup_hierarchy parameter? If it is possible and safe, how to enable it (the file to enable it in and the lines to add/edit)? This parameter is needed for per-user throttling of RAM, CPU, IO...

    Can KVMs and LXCs have access to their files on the PBS?

    That would be a nice addition, don't you think? Or is this feature already available and have I just missed it?

    Proxmox Mail Gateway 6.4 released

    * Which virus scanners are available out-of-the-box in this version? * Is it possible to add a virus scanner that is not already available? * Are emails scanned for viruses before or after the spam checks?

    Create datastore on SSHFS mount

    Thanks for that info, Fabian. Giving up on SSHFS already! * When backing up LXC containers on LVM storage, can PBS do the full backup (before feeding the datastore) on snapshot mode without having to suspend or stop the container?

    Create datastore on SSHFS mount

    Could someone from Proxmox reply to this question? Are SSHFS mounts supported as a datastore? If the answer is 'yes', my 2nd question would be: Can the full backup that PBS performs (before feeding the datastore with the incremental data) be done directly on the SSHFS mount instead of on local...

    Missing SSL certificate for Proxmox backup server

    Tested with Backup Server stable 1.0 and this solution works perfectly! Initially, the proxmox-backup-proxy service failed to start after copying the files. Updating the two replaced files with "chgrp backup" resolved it.

    LXC 'du' size confusion

    Why would an LXC container with actual data size of 19GB and 120GB raw file show 56GB in 'du'? Using hdds on Proxmox 6.3.

    Proxmox Mail Gateway 6.3 released

    Good progress. However, the ability to integrate a wider range of Anti-Virus apps is a must for stronger protection. Kaspersky, Bitdefender, Sophos, Eset, etc. Perhaps in the next release?

    Is it safe to install glibc?

    Is it safe to install the glibc-source package on Proxmox 6.2? i.e. won't interfere with or break the Proxmox packages? root@srv5:~# apt show glibc-source Package: glibc-source Version: 2.28-10 Priority: optional Section: devel Source: glibc Maintainer: GNU Libc Maintainers...

    Linux Kernel 5.4 for Proxmox VE

    Quick feedback: Your method to limit ZFS's memory usage works fine here with the 5.3 kernel. Just 2 things I am not sure about. The amount of ARC memory being used for a container, is that included in that container's and the host's (h)top command? Also, is there a command to reliably find out...

    DCC + Pyzor + Virus Scanners ?

    If Virustotal can be enabled, PMG would become the best virus scanning programme ever devised. They have a heuristic zero-day scanner no-one else has, which has just caught a malware in a screensaver .exe file I downloaded from screensaversplanet.com.

    [SOLVED] Reboot server and get on lxc Server refused to allocate pty

    I get the same error : "Server refused to allocate pty" when I try to log in to SSH. As the /etc/fstab in my lxc container (migrated from Proxmox 3.1) is completely empty, not sure why i am getting this error. I am also unable to log in to the Console in the gui. It just hangs. Inside the...
