    Is it possible to clone a single zfs vm-disk from a VM which contains more than one disk?

    I'd like to just copy or clone a zfs disk from a VM which contains two or more disks, such as vm-100-disk-0 and vm-100-disk-1. My usual method is: 1. Backup vmid 100 2. Restore vmid 100 to a different ID # 3. Detach the disk I want from the vm. 4. Shell zfs list 5. zfs rename vm-100-disk-1 to...

    Tuxis launches free Proxmox Backup Server BETA service

    How can we see the data store location fully? I used to just put the name, but there's an error adding that method now. I think they want /mnt Thank you. Looks like I figured out the solution. I just needed to add the storage name, but I also had to remove the previous fingerprint. Thank you.

    Node renamed on single node. GUI not working.

    Thanks. I think I discovered the issue. I had two ethernet ports that were bonded under vmbr0. When I renamed the node and hosts it must have messed up. I did a fresh install of PVE 7.1 from the ISO and it still didn't work. I unplugged one of the Ethernet cables from eno2 and left eno1...

    Node renamed on single node. GUI not working.

    Hello, I've done a node rename before and did it successfully. I recently did an in place upgrade from PVE 6 to 7. With that I got bold and tried renaming /etc/hosts /etc/hostname /etc/postfix/main.cfg I moved files from /etc/pve/nodes/old_node/qemu-server/ to...

    How do we get the new fingerprint? The old one doesn't seem to match with the free account. Thank you.

    HDD got renamed by itself?

    Thank you. Sorry I have been preoccupied with other matters. Is this normal behaviour? I have several nodes and have setup several nodes in the past which had crontabs set to report on sda, sdb, sdc and sdd which worked without issue. However with this one server, the hdd got renamed by itself...

    HDD got renamed by itself?

    Hello. I have some odd behaviour occuring with my node. I have dual 240GB drives for the OS and then dual 960GB drives for storage of VMS. Normally the naming was sda and sdb for the OS drives and sdc and sdd for the storage drives. I run smartctl through cron daily and noticed that sda was...

    Unable to Backup VM: "write error - Broken pipe"

    Just to chime in. I recently kept getting this similar error. It took a reboot of my system in order to clear the tmp file that was created since it resulted into an insufficient storage error when trying to utilize the GUI. Anyways, is there a method to get a VZdump elsewhere? I am running dual...

    ccp 0000:04:00.2: SEV: failed to INIT error 0x8003

    @Machtl Sorry I never fully figured it out. To be safe, I got two separate stick of memory to test out. However I've chalked it up to be either a software issue or incompatibility. I guess I could have sent off the unit under warranty, but everything else seemed to be working okay. I'm not...

    [Latest] Proxmox - USB disconnects freeze KVM

    I had this issue a while back as well. I think I may have figured out the issue this time. I had restored a remote VM to my Proxmox Server that uses the exact same name for USB0 as well as the hose name ie: -usb0 host=0bc2:ab28,usb3=1 which is the same as the one passed through to my PBS...

    PBS crash crashes also pvestatd on PVE nodes

    I've had this issue as well 2-3 times since the Backup Server was launched. Although restarting PVESTATD makes things green again I had complications until I essentially restarted the server. However, I am running most of my backups onto and external USB which may not be the best practice and...

    PBS Initial Sync for Remote (off-site) Server using USB disk?

    @rholighaus Perhaps a bit tedius. I was onsite and made a local backup directly to an external USB drive or to local zfs disk and then transferred the dumped image to external USB. Then I brought the USB offsite and restored to a separate node and backed up to Proxmox Backup Server. After...

    PBS Sometimes Locks up and then won't start. Weird Emergency mode.

    I have PBS running as a VM on PVE 6.2-11. Sometimes it runs for something like over 20 days, and then it all of a sudden locks up and the external USB drive pass through starts showing. I did some reboot and sometimes the PBS comes back but keeps showing errors. Only when I finally issue a kill...

    [SOLVED] Missing chunks, how to fix - update atime failed for chunk - ENOENT: No such file or directory

    Is pruning this the only way to force a send of new chunks? I normally backup to PBS using snapshots. I tried with Stop VM, but it still resulted in errors... I am consistently getting a missing chunk error can't verify chunk, load failed - store 'store3', unable to load chunk...

    Restore Failures

    @fabian I did not do that. Should I? I am trying to figure out how things work. My assumption is that sometimes each subsequent backup would reuse some files from the previous backup if it deems there are no significant changes. The log shows 107: 2020-09-07 02:30:24 INFO: backup is sparse...

    [SOLVED] Verify a backup - when do that PBS?

    Sounds like a great plan. I noticed when upgrading from 8-11 Beta to 8-14 the disappearance of individual VM backup verification. Basically you can verify all the backups in the store, but not individual ones like I used to. Do I have to run the whole verification process again? Or is there a...
