Thank you for your suggestion. Part of my problem is that this container hosts a back end service that relies on an external device on a dedicated Ethernet interface (10.0.3.x) and storage on yet another dedicated interface (10.0.2.x), and then has frontends on my local network accessing it...

Hey all, I have a quick question. I have a container with a rather complex configuration with many mounted folders, and several Ethernet devices. I'd like the keep the container as is, but replace the template it is running off of with a different distribution. Is this possible? I was...

Hmm. I don't have the liberty to reboot at the time to troubleshoot exporting the path. I'll try using the full path of the smartctl binary and see if that works ext time I reboot. Do you know if the smartctl command requires smartd to be running?

Hey all, I have a ZFS pool in my proxmox box consisting of Seagate Enterprise drives. They accept the smartctl -l scterc command to set the error recovery timeout, but unfortunately for some reason it is not persistent after reboot. While reboots are infrequent, I don't want to forget to...

This seems to have done the trick, thank you. Regarding the delayed notifications, I did some research and it turns out both my ISP and my VPN provider block port 25 to reduce the risk of email spamming, so I am not sure how they are getting through at all...

I'll take a look, thanks, but I don't think this is it. It keeps resending warnings about the same disks (that are no longer in the system), with newer date stamps. I suspect what is happening is that smartd hasn't noticed that they have been replaced due to not handling hot swaps well, so it...

Hey all, First let me explain my setup. My Proxmox box boots off of a ZFS mirror of two 500GB SSD's. I also have a secondary ZFS pool consisting of 12 spinning disks, 2 SSD SLOG ZIL devices and 2 SSD L2ARC devices, which I use for data storage. I am in the middle of a slow project to one...

Hey all, I installed Proxmox to a mirrored pair of SSD's quite a while ago. I noticed almost immediately that the resultant rpool used old fashioned linux device names: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM rpool ONLINE 0 0 0 mirror-0 ONLINE 0 0...

I originally started with MythTV as a VM under ESXi. When I transitioned to Proxmox with its KVM and LXC options, I quickly realized how much I could save in the way of resources by going with a container instead of a full VM. Disk space savings are probably the biggest since you don't need...

Never mind, this solved my DNS problems. Thanks for all of your help. I'm marking this as solved now. Hopefully it will help others in the future. --Matt

One more question if you don't mind, since you seem very knowledgeable about these things. I followed this guide in order to tunnel all of my traffic through the VPN. My OpenVPN lxc resides on the 10.0.1.0/24 subnet, and my OpenVPN tun subnet is 10.0.5.0/24, so I replaced the IP addresses...

Wolfgang, greatly appreciated. Thank you very much. --Matt

Wolfgang, Thank you for your explanation. Looks like the tun device is the issue again. Tue Jan 10 15:34:01 2017 us=118810 OpenVPN 2.3.4 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] [MH] [IPv6] built on Nov 12 2015 Tue Jan 10 15:34:01 2017 us=118852 library versions: OpenSSL...

I appreciate the help, but this message confuses me. What would you like me to send the output of? Thanks, Matt

Ethtool does properly report my link as 10000 where mii-tool failed. Yeah, my guess would then be the cable.

Yeah, what are you doing to test? Personally over my intel 10gig copper interfaces, I get anywhere from 9.25Gbit/s to about 9.75Gbit/s when I test with iPerf, confirming that the interfaces are working properly. Transferring files over NFS - however - I seem to only average about 160-200MB/s...

Maybe the solution here is to run an OpenVPN server inside of a VM instead? I had hoped to do it in a container for the sake of efficiency (particularly when it comes to RAM, I have more CPU capacity than I know what to do with). If I were to put a Ubuntu Server LTS install in a VM, I wonder...

Understood, Apparmor may be a royal pain to deal with, but security is important. I guess my question was, is there any way I can use custom Apparmor configurations without future updates overriding them again? Did I edit the wrong files? Sometimes there are files that are intended to be...

Well, I added my lines from lxc-default to lxc-default-cgns so now they bot contain the following: # allow nfs mount everywhere mount fstype=rpc_pipefs, mount fstype=nfs, and then I restarted apparmor as follows: $ /etc/init.d/apparmor reload And this seems to be working now. Not quite...

Alright, So I located the apparmor LXC configuration folder on the host, but it contains four different files, and I'm not sure which one does what. root@proxmox:/etc/apparmor.d/lxc# ls -l total 18 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 558 Apr 16 2016 lxc-default -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 528 Dec 2 08:39...
