This is an old post, but I'd like to share what I did with a recent 4.4 upgrade. I have many Proxmox host I work with all day long and really like having some sort of visual cue as to which host I'm working on. Just a little bit of color is enough to grab my attention when I tab over to the...

What's the best way to migrate the snapshots which accompany a VM? Getting an error when using `-delete 1` when a VM has a snapshot: "volume local:102/vm-102-disk-1.qcow2 have snapshots. Can't delete it"

I have a Glusterfs system running over Infiniband which I'm testing with Proxmox 3.4 (soon to be upgraded to 4.4). The vzdumps work great but I'm wondering how I can run my VM images directly from the Glusterfs mount point without a huge performance degradation. I tried SATA disks with obvious...

I'm using SSL on port 636. TLS is nice but I've seen handshakes fail and the session will continue in clear text if you don't take special precautions on the server (Openldap anyway). At least on 636, if the handshake fails, the entire session fails. You won't leak credentials accidentally. At...

I need to move the disks (on several Proxmox 3.4 hypervisors) of around 90 VMs (not containers) from local /var/lib/vz/ to a mounted iSCSI volume (/mnt/remote). I'd like to just setup a shell script as I need to move them back to /var/lib/vz after upgrading the hypervisor. Is there a command...

Ok that works. I didn't realize I needed to create the user first. That also answers my second question: how to allow Proxmox access to only certain users in LDAP. That problem is also solved doing it this way.

Does LDAP authentication currenly work under Proxmox 4.4? Under Datacenter > Permissions > Authentication > Add > LDAP Server I've added a realm (myrealm I guess? Is this an OpenLDAP thing?) a Base Domain Name (which I think is the same as a DN ou=sales,dc=my,dc=domain, and a server IP of...

I think it's something to do with my Ubuntu ISO. I had to add "serialtty=ttyS0" in addition to the aforementioned boot args. Found it in the ramdisk image used for the ISO (scripts/casper-bottom/22serialtty)

I am booting my Linux virtual from and ISO image and adding the "...console=tty0 console=ttyS0" manually from the boot menu. I can run `qm terminal <VMID>` from the command line on the proxmox server and display all the boot output as the VM is booting. Very nice. I'm not, however, able to get...

Just an update - I don't think it had anything to do with switching kernels. I'm back to running -43 without any problems so far. I've swapped out the Samsung 850 drives for the older 840 model. We've run the 840 EVO and PRO on these controllers for years without problem. The Areca event log...

Booted with 2.6.32-42-pve instead of -43 and all seems well now. Thanks for the heads-up on the EVO drives.

I've had three disks go out on two different Proxmox servers in the past two days. Not sure what's up. Could be coincidence, maybe not. Just thought I'd check if anyone else is having problems due to kernel updates, patches, etc. Both boxes are fully patched running pve-manager/3.4-11/6502936f...

Hi, Is there a problem with the enterprise update server? I'm trying to apply patches today on my 3.4-6 Proxmox install and getting an error. I pointed firefox at the URL in question to inspect the cert and get: "The certificate expired on 08/19/2015 06:46 AM. The current time is 08/19/2015...

Seems to be happening every night. I'll make a new template and see what happens tonight.I have two Proxmox servers which both back up the VMs just fine until they hit one or more template. Here is from last two days. One template was vmid 111 the other 115. The backup started on the 5th and I...

Why does 'vma' consistenly fail when backing up VM Templates? I have over 1T of space available in /var/lib/vz/dump so not sure what's going on here. Tried to find some documentation/man page but only find a basic blurb about it here https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/VMA nothing about details for...

I run 6 Proxmox servers and I've had a few near misses when modifying things. Is there any way to change the GUI colors in the web interface anywhere? I made some modifications to /usr/share/pve-manager/ext4/resources/css/ext-all.css (below) but I'd like to know if there is a way to do this...

I ended up disabling the Proxmox backup job in the web GUI. For one thing, It tries to restart my Template hosts when backing them up and then considers it a failure because it can't "restart" them (??). The other problem was the hanging vzdump processes. I would log into a host ever couple days...

I have about 15 VMs I'm vzdump-ing to a sata RAID array every night around 2am. This morning I see vzdump is stopped. It has been about 7 hours since the vzdump started. Why? Here is the process list of vzdump (running since 2am). My backup process is using "snapshot" mode so I think this must...
