yeah time to upgrade the BIOS -Guy

Have you unplugged the power cable at the back for a time after making the changes? Cheers --Guy

How does the SAN present it's self to the motherboard/bios? it's likely that it's just not were the installer thinks it should be. You might have to install a base OS and then install proxmox onto. --Guy

yup I do this now... I have about 6 different network address ranges.. The best and most secure way is to use VLANs.. but you have to have a VLAN capable router. Of course you can build a VM one :) if you don't have the physical tin. Here are just some of mine... as an example: auto...

yeah I see that NTP is installed.. it's just a I can't query it over the network. I need to make sure all my systems both virtual and other are all getting the same time. --Guy

Yeah the time is really due to all the read and write to the same disk. This makes it very slow as the disk controller is mostly waiting for the disk to get to the right points for either reading or writing. Think about putting in a second drive and backup to that or as the other person says...

Hi, Given how important time is these days. Can I suggest that proxmox would act as an NTP server, it's already half doing that for it's images. I did want to run NTPD in a Centos 5.2 image but there are issues doing this, making sure you get correct time, and also being able to update...

good point... forgot about fstab... For everyone else here's my entry to fstab NFS-Server.internal:/mnt/VLA/Backups/Proxmox/apollo /Backup nfs rw 0 0 Cheers, --Guy

Hi, It seems that if I download a template and then later you guys update it the Description of the template change to "-- unknown --" I assume this is because of the data file being updated and not retaining the older information. Can you change it so that say 2 versions old will still...

I've just configured my proxmox systems to run backups onto an NFS fileserver. Two questions a rise from this: 1. what's your recommended way to make sure my NFS server is mounted after a reboot, or before the backup starts. This might be something you want to add in for other users too. I...

ok that's just really cool... report an issue and have it fixed within an hour or so. I'm seeing this time and time again.. you guys are so on the ball. I'm so glad that I moved over to proxmox! --Guy

Hi all, I just tried to download the SugarCRM (5.2.0-1) and it failed the check sum at the end. Cheers, --Guy

Yeah CentOS knows about some soft RAID stuff.. the performance of software RAID is not the same as hardware RAID so you should think carefully. --Guy

the fact that you see both drives in the installer means that your not really doing RAID.. Let me guess you used the BIOS RAID which isn't really RAID it's software RAID. And Proxmox doesn't have kernel support for this. so you see both drives and you're not really RAIDing the disks! --Guy

Your best bet for that would be to use the snapshot backups of the images and then sync those back to your house or where ever. You can make the snapshots run when ever you like.. And yes all glory to the proxmox team. Cheers, ---Guy

nope.. I was wrong... It fails because the host name I'm giving it was too short. Internally I use ".int" and so was trying to give the proxmox installer a name of "apollo.int" which it accepted but then failed at the last point. Change the name to "apollo.proxmox.int" and it seems fine...

ok FOUND IT!! it seems that if I remove the RAM from the first RAM slot and run the install CD it works. I can then power off the system and push the RAM back in. Strange but anyway. --Guy

Well I've been messing with the BIOS to try and optimize it's configuration but I've reset that back to defaults again. I've just taken the drive out and put it into another system to make sure it's blank. --Guy

just ran it again now with ctl-alt-F2 and I don't see much different error wise just this: Errors were encountered while processing: postfix at pve_manager mutt vzdump mailx proxmox-ve command 'chroot /target dpkg --force-confold --configure -a' failed with exit code 1 at...

Yes you can do it.. however how fast things migrate, or install will depend on how big your pipe is. Once you have the heads running the VMs you require, it should be just fine. However bringing up the console for a remote server might be a little slow. The link between the cluster heads...
