    [SOLVED] Unbale to get "Base volume" to populate when iSCSI selected as "Base storage"

    Odd, I may have found a bug, here's how I produced it. 1 - Configured a LUN with an ID of 0 2 - Setup iSCSI on Proxmox using LUN with the ID of 0 3 - Began use of LUN (put containers or VM's on it - I used it for quite some time) 4 - Setup alternate storage, and moved everything off of iSCSI to...

    [SOLVED] Unbale to get "Base volume" to populate when iSCSI selected as "Base storage"

    I have a LUN configured on my SAN, and I can add the iSCSI storage without issue. However when I attempt to configure a LVM volume on said iSCSI storage, the base volume never populates. root@homeproxmox:~# pveversion -v proxmox-ve: 7.2-1 (running kernel: 5.15.74-1-pve) pve-manager: 7.2-14...

    [SOLVED] Container began failing backup - low disk space

    I found out what happened. After an update, my vzdump.conf got overwritten and the dump dir I had specified got removed. One of my own old thread clued me in.

    [SOLVED] Hard disk filling up during container backup

    Yup, plopped in the path to more usable temp storage into vzdump.conf and it finished. Thank you for the help!

    [SOLVED] Hard disk filling up during container backup

    I have a 40GB container, that while is being backed up and running at the same time, the VE HD space fills up and the job fails. I have plenty of solid state storage that can be used as a staging area if needed, unsure how I can tell Proxmox to use another storage area for this stuff. Also not...

    LXC Gentoo container

    I second this as well. Although I'm happy with the init.d system, emerging anything seems to fail with this LXC. We need a new one or this one needs to be retired. While I would like to dig in a try myself, I'm just getting started with containers literally today.

    Template Backup Failing - Exit Code 1

    I have a backup job that backs up the entire Proxmox server. So far I have 3 VM's and a template. ID's 100, 101, 102, and 901 respectively. All three machines are backing up fine, but the template (901) is failing. INFO: ionice priority: 7 INFO: VM Name: WindowsServer2022 INFO: include disk...

    [SOLVED] Hardware RAID Notification/Status

    Please don't misunderstand - I'm not placing "blame" per se (not intentionally anyway). This environment I'm running is purely testing at this point to see if we can replace our current hypervisor with Proxmox. I think it could, but this is a pretty big missed feature. However, I get it...

    [SOLVED] Hardware RAID Notification/Status

    So, one of my co-workers came up with a brilliant solution - use iDRAC. After setting up e-mail alerts and attaching it to the network, it should alert us with any and all hardware issues - not just hard disk issues. This is one area where Proxmox is missing the mark. Either they need...

    [SOLVED] Hardware RAID Notification/Status

    Then there's a problem. I have an e-mail address configured for the root@pam user, and that address has not gotten any notification in regards to this degraded array. This server isn't in production, so this is fine for a test - but I yanked one of the drives out of the RAID-1 OS array, I...

    [SOLVED] Hardware RAID Notification/Status

    We are a mid-sized company and we've been dipping our toes into Proxmox, and we are trying to vet out any potential issues before we swap in the future. One of the things that has crossed my mind is that all of our hosts run hardware RAID (PERC controllers of some flavor depending on the model...

    Moving VMDK to Local Storage (solved)

    I figured it out. I used the GUI to setup secondary storage *directly* on /dev/sdb without partitioning. I setup /dev/sdb1, formatted it ext4, and set it to automount in /etc/fstab using UUID and I think I'm off to the races. This also may be due partly to my lack of knowledge on LVM as it's...

    Moving VMDK to Local Storage (solved)

    I'm not real familiar with how LVM's work, so I need a little guidance. I have some raw virtual disks I'm trying to get to local storage available to my proxmox installation (/dev/sdb1 setup as an lvm labeled "vmstorage"). I'm quite familiar with linux and mounting filesystems, but I don't see...
