over at reddit some guy managed to get it work.... by throwing out the P840 and replacing it with a LSI 9300. so far that is the closest thing to a solution i've seen and I am planning to do it once I decide if i really need that HP machine in my homelab

looks like my problems are caused by high wait io. PBS tries to update the access time on the files, but it times out due to high wait IO. i did some tweaks in the ZFS caching and allocated some more ram to ZFS host, so my wait io has decreased and garbage collection can finish. still takes 4-7...

so according to my current investigation on the high wait ios: - currently are caused by storj storage node. turning the storagenode off make wait io drop immediately form 40 to 2-3 - the wait io increase in april (when i was not running zfs or storagenode) was caused by moving the datastore...

something's definitely wrong here... i have created a new datastore. just creating it took 42 minutes. then i have started a garbage collection job on the newly created empty datastore and its running for an hour already. the wait IO on the NFS server is constantly high for months, but I dont...

my ZFS config is posted here https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/estale-stale-file-handle.120000/post-696875 both options are enabled. also i really dont know why does it take so long.... in increased in april from 10 minutes to 9 hours between two runs. back then the datastore was on a single...

i did try to unmount and remount several times and also i think during reboot basically the same happens. my case is a bit different than @cpulove 's, i understood he was unable to add the datastores and make any backups. for me backups work fine (there is 20+ of them running each day), its the...

the pool is alright, scrubbed regularly, coincidentally the last scrub just finished today. both the NFS server as PBS have been rebooted before running the garbage collection (PBS turned off, NFS server rebooted, PBS started). what I am trying to figure out what it the operation PBS is trying...

this is driving me nuts, my pbs storage is slowly growing and I did not have a successful garbage collection for years. i find it mildly interesting, that its always a different file that is failing. restarting the pbs server does not seem to help also I have checked the file that came back...

what is the best practice for syncing long-term backups to rotating disk? garbage collection on a z-raid pool via NFS takes 10+ hours and often fails. i could use an ssd as the primary backup target for the most recent copies, but still i need to sync them to a larger capacity storage and...

i have a similar problem. been using PBS on a remote NFS share for years without problems, but recently I have changed my storage setup, so the backup target now is a ZFS dataset, still mounted as NFS. Since moving to NFS i am getting these errors during Garbage Collection: TASK ERROR: update...

i have the same (or similar issue). passing trough the P840 with ROM-BAR enabled just gives me an endless Configuring controller... message. Disabling ROM-BAR seems to help, but after a while iLO throws a critical error on the controller and fans spin up to 100%. my goal was to use ZFS on the...

surely i did. i am running proxmox for ~5 years and I have migrated disks at least 4 times and it always worked. i never used anything else than thin-lvm as the machine never supported more than 1 drive.

I want to move my PVE host to a larger disk. I did this process in the past without any problems (actually I have even restored to a smaller drive with some trial and error) but now it fails. - I have created a Clonezilla full disk backup on my NAS - when trying to restore the Clonezilla image I...

thanks a lot, that could work.

I have just installed PBS and trying to figure out how it works. Mostly its ok, but there is one thing i'd like to solve: my PBS datastore used a NFS share mounted via fstab. The share is provided by a VM and the actual data is stored on disks on a passed-trough RAID controller. When I try to...

thank you, that was exactly the command i was looking for. discard was enabled on the disk, but without running the command it did not free up the space somehow.

i have reorganized the content of my VM and moved some data to a separate virtual disk to have more flexibility if i ever need to increase the disk size, not touching the OS partition. now the original virtual disk has a lot of free space, but the VM still takes up ~130 GB on the local-lvm...

yes, it looks like that, and it was also my first hunch, but after seeing that my another PVE node is able to connect to it, i am leaning towards PVE being the culprit. etc/pve/storage.cfg looks the same on both nodes root@pve-smc:~# cat /etc/pve/storage.cfg dir: local path...

So, this is a strange issue, as I think shared storage is configured on datacenter level. Yet, on of my nodes can't access the share. I can manually mount the share with nfs vers=3 only, with vers=4 it gives an error. both nodes are on the same version. node pve-smc was restarted recently. I...

WAN, LAN connection to switch and LAN direct connection to my main PC - mostly to utilize the 2.5 Gig connection on both computers (switch is only 1 Gig)
