    NFS 4.1 - How does proxmox gets the status?

    @dcsapak : it seems that first you check the /proc/mount entrie and then you check if it is mounted (see https://github.com/proxmox/pve-storage/blob/master/src/PVE/Storage/NFSPlugin.pm - from line 108 : sub status {. But I am wondering if sub check_connection (line 162) is used in the GUI...

    PVE crashing / hanging with very high load average

    Hello usridzero, just an idea : if you have only one disk and the VM are eating IOs, it is quite normal that the OS will hang/freeze/crash. Did you try to monitor the ressources with "atop 1", or "systat -xk 1" ?

    Configure MAC prefix via webUI does not allow xx:xx:xx:Y format

    Hi there Petr ! To my point of view, it is OK. MAC address is randomly generated. Thus collision probability is : 1 / ((2^24) - number ov VMs) I think. The risk is acceptable for me. Maybe you have an installation with plenty of VMs and this is not acceptable. Thus I see at last 2...

    Can't connect to iSCSI LUNs after upgrade

    Look at your network connectivity. Test the ping, the MTU, the TCP session connectivity (ex http://rickardnobel.se/troubleshoot-iscsi-tcp-connectivity-from-esxi-with-netcat/) ?

    Proxmox VE 5.0 released!

    Alessandro : I understand that Tom can be a bit irritated. Saying that the multioot lack is known, identified and on the todo list, de facto is an answer.

    Proxmox home network configuration

    My two cents : Use VLAN between your server and your router. Use VLANs "inside" your server (bridges over virtual interface with tagged frames to ethernet port). Use as it : 1 VLAN = 1 network Or user pfsense as second router and declare routes in your router.

    Proxmox VE 5.0 released!

    Tom : good to know thank you. My customer will maybe use support tickets on that :-) Just to be sure : can we (safely) do something like : - cluster 4.4 OK - on node A : live migrate all VMs to a "standby" node Z - now there is no more VMs running on node A - upgrade node A, reboot it - on node...

    VMDK disk image file format : ready for production ?

    Hello, I recently remarked that Proxmox VE (at last v4.4) now supports VMDK disk image file format. I couldn't find any documentation on that (maybe because I always fall on migration procedure with qemu-img convert with my internet searchs). Same on kvm documentation at RedHat. The kvm manual...

    Andrei ZeeGiant : your optimisation is effective. ///// DISCLAMER (my professionnal responsibility as Proxmox Reseller and system expert) But you increase risk of loosing data in case of power outage. Furthermore, you don't know if a daemon uses atime/diratime in the system. This can lead to...
