    VM Disk Performance Issue After Moving from Local RAID SSD to NFS Storage

    Hi @powersupport , It's been a while since I looked at this thread due to being away. It seems the last deliverables are for you to clarify your setup and retest at all points to establish the baseline. After giving the original post another read, I am left with even more questions. You...

    Fresh install network is down

    Hi @thewrath009 , welcome to the forum. Your output shows that the interface has no link. Are you sure the cable is plugged in? Into the right port? Is the cable itself working? Have you checked the link light on the NIC? It’s possible you have a card that PVE doesn’t include a driver for...

    Can we extend the default MAC Prefix in the Cluster

    Hi @deepakvidyadharan , welcome to the forum. One way to find the answer to your question is to check the code: root@pve-1:/usr/share/perl5/PVE# grep -R mac|grep prefix ... DataCenterConfig.pm: if ($mac_prefix !~ m/^[a-f0-9][02468ace](?::[a-f0-9]{2}){0,2}:?$/i) { ... Quick AI summary: The...

    [SOLVED] Web GUI is broken since update and or restart

    Thank you for sharing your findings. The "community" scripts are indeed number one cause of GUI breakage in 99% of reports. In fact, this ^ was pretty much the guarantee that the scripts were the cause. Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox -...

    [SOLVED] Web GUI is broken since update and or restart

    You missed "debsums -c" request. What does "pveversion --verbose" show? You can also try to force reinstall all pve* and proxmox* packages in the list above. The starting point is that there are hundreds of thousands of users for whom PVE works fine. That means something is broken in your...

    [SOLVED] Migrating disks - to delete source or not?

    There are a few reasons to keep the disks: - you don't trust the migration process and want to have that last backup - you want to do a test and then throw away any changes on new storage - you want to re-use the old data in some way None of the above is a common use, and frankly I had to...

    cloud-init brain dump

    Hi @cypherfox , the cloud-init file can be in many different formats: yaml, shell, etc. Merging different styles and formats is complicated and is simply not worth it. As you found, using an external orchestrator like TF to drive VM creation start-to-end is a good way to avoid reinventing the...

    Custom user-data via --cicustom not applied on VM boot in Proxmox

    The dump command does not consider your custom files. It will only output built-in values, regardless of whether there is an overriding custom setting. The idea might be that you already have access to custom files, but may want to look at what the result of the built-in settings are. Also...

    cloud-init brain dump

    Hi @cypherfox, welcome to the forum! Thanks for sharing your experience, I’m sure it will be useful for others working with cloud-init. My own experience has been a bit different: when using a custom cloud-init file, the internal (GUI) cloud-init settings are completely ignored. You can...

    [SOLVED] Web GUI is broken since update and or restart

    The issue is not the same, but some of the commands and troubleshooting steps are applicable. So you had a pre-existing broken installation and hoped that an upgrade might fix it but it didn't? Have you, by chance, used one of the community scripts that "optimizes" PVE installation? You can...

    How to get config of each VM, including disks and location through API

    Technically this is a one-liner: for node in $(pvesh get /nodes --output-format=json | jq -r '.[].node'); do for vmid in $(pvesh get /nodes/$node/qemu --output-format=json | jq -r '.[].vmid'); do pvesh get /nodes/$node/qemu/$vmid/config --output-format=json | jq --arg node "$node" --arg vmid...

    PVE 8.x Cluster Setup of shared LVM/LV with MSA2060

    I don't know your infrastructure limitations or business requirements to make any recommendations. Generally, it is always best to have more paths than less. Would 4 be better than 2 for you? I don't know. I am not sure I follow. You need to feed PVE a Volume Group. You've already allocated all...

    NetApp & ProxMox VE

    Hi @daus2936 , your question was: The title of the documentation page provided by @alexskysilk is: Set up the multipath.conf file in E-Series - Linux (iSCSI) It is very succinct and states: No changes to /etc/multipath.conf are required. It appears to be addressing your question directly...

    [SOLVED] Can't access the Proxmox Web GUI from LAN

    To summarize: you deployed a desktop version of Debian with X interfaces (and likely many other “workstation” tools), then installed PVE, and finally added Docker on the same host. You are able to run curl -k https://192.168.8.2:8006 directly from the hypervisor via SSH, but your browsers fail...

    How to get config of each VM, including disks and location through API

    When operating at a scale of 1,000 VMs, it may make sense to maintain your own inventory database. You could, for example, integrate ctime or another tag to track changes. As others have pointed out, you’ll likely need some custom work to get the exact view you want. That said, there are...

    iSCSI super slow - have I done something wrong?

    Hi @unsichtbarre, “Super slow” is a very subjective way to describe performance. A good first step is to establish a baseline with FIO. Keep in mind that I/O over iSCSI passes through many layers: disk/volume configuration and CPU/memory on TrueNAS, network on both ends (and the switch in...

    [SOLVED] Web GUI is broken since update and or restart

    Hi @mariofehr , welcome to the forum. It looks like a failed upgrade. There has been more than a few similar threads over the last couple of weeks. Here is an example thread with a number of steps that may be helpful if not in resolving the problem, then at providing more information for...

    [TUTORIAL] Inside Proxmox VE 9 SAN Snapshot Support

    Hi Spirit, It'll be a little while before the team can revisit this (and I'm currently OoO). That said, increasing the default cache size likely introduces serious real-world risks. I believe it creates a denial-of-service vulnerability and makes cluster-wide resource scheduling extremely...
