Hi there, thanks for your reply. Just a little update to my HowTo in the first Post: Since a couple of weeks I experienced trouble during the setup procudure - sometimes the installer crashed and made a reboot while choosing the disk setup. After some tesiting I figured out how to fix this...

Hi, many thanks for your reply. I never did further investigation in that direction because in our setup it is desired to manualy unlock the storage after reboot. We need this for data privacy reasons, to have the VMs in a non operational status in case of a theft. Additionaly I don't like to...

Hi there, we are currently do some POC on a VDI solution using PVE and PVE-VDIClient (https://github.com/joshpatten/PVE-VDIClient). This works very well except the USB redirection on a Windows client. There comes up an error message on VirtViewer: "Could not open usb device: Entity not found...

Hi Dominik, perfect, your recommendation is a great alternative. Thanks for your support. Martin

Hi there, to make sure every produtive VM will be backuped, even if it will be setup later, we are running the backup jobs with option "Selection Mode: ALL" on every node. What we don't want to be backuped are the VM templates. Is there an option avaiable to exclude templates from backup jobs...

Hi Oguz, many thanks for your suggestions. That should work for me. Best Regards Martin

Hi Dominik, many thanks for your suggestions and sorry for confusion. I just opened another thread in this forum, maybe you can delete that one. Next time I know how deal with it.

Hi there, we are using scripts for the initial setup of our PVE systems. Is it possible to setup backup jobs by shell command? The only way I'm currently found is to modify /etc/pve/vzdump.cron and add the jobs. I'm not sure if this is a valid way to do that because there is a note that this...

Hi Fabian, I can confirm that this issue is fixed. I tried this settings on one of the affected hosts and it works well. The midday backup just finished and now the content count shows 2 versions. Best Regards Martin

Hi Fabian, many thanks for your support. So I know that I have to focus on the PVE hosts to find the reason for this behavior, and it seems I already found it. For the other users, I will try to explain what I think what exactly happened, maybe it helps someone who is experiencing similar...

Hi, I'm currently experiencing some trouble on both backup servers (1.1-13 and 2.1-4) with the retentention policies on some of the PVE backups (not all). There are no settings on the PVE hosts so retention is controlled by the backup servers. There are policies set on the datastores for...

Many thanks for your reply. That dRAID setup RAID-Z1 +spare seems also to compensate the disadvantage of long resilvering time for parity based RAID-Zx. Sounds really interesting.

Hi guys, I want to share my solution that I'm using for encrypted storage on PVE. This manual is mainly addressed to beginners, because people who are familiar with ZFS know these things as natural features. If you are using worlds best virtualization PVE in combination with worlds best...

Hi guys, for the reason that our current PBS equiped with classic SATA-HDD is fallen into a 24/7 Job to manage 8x PVE backups with Prune, GC and verify jobs, we are planning to setup a new one with latest hardware technology. We are planning to use AMD based server hardware with 64GB ECC RAM...

Perfect. Thanks for sharing your experience. I usaly don't use aptitude so that should be no problem.

Sounds good! Thanks a lot for your response.

Hey guys, just want to know if someone is using Wireguard installed on a PVE6 host and expirencing any problems. Are there any arguments against that setup? I'm currently using it to access the VM network on a PVE6 machine - so far without any issues. Thanks & Regards Martin

I have to apologize, it was my mistake. After running the task for 5 minutes there came an error message: Nov 11 08:14:06 pve00000 pvedaemon[498213]: timeout: no zvol device link for 'vm-100-disk-0' found after 300 sec found. The reason was, the ZFS pool is encrypted where the VM is located. I...

@djgraff209 - Many thanks for your reply. I just checked the tail -f /var/log/syslog Nov 11 08:09:07 pve00000 pvedaemon[498213]: start VM 100: UPID:pve00000:00079A25:002E31A7:618CC193:qmstart:100:root@pam: Nov 11 08:09:07 pve00000 pvedaemon[1843]: <root@pam> starting task...
