    Auto backup with NAS4Free storage

    So, my real question is...what is the easiest way to transfer Proxmox backups to another machine. Is there an easy GUI (the NFS or ZFS thing is complicated). Perhaps a Cron script?

    Auto backup with NAS4Free storage

    Hook script sounds good too, although I need to delete the files from Proxmox once synced to another machine, to avoid the continual issue of disks filling up and causing the io-error. I'll search about Proxmox hook scripts.

    Auto backup with NAS4Free storage

    Ok, so following the instructions from Storage ZFS and error: root@proxmox:/etc/pve# nano storage.cfg root@proxmox:/etc/pve# zfs create tank/vmdata cannot create 'tank/vmdata': no such pool 'tank' I have edited storage.cfg as per sparse configuration example.

    Auto backup with NAS4Free storage

    Thank you. I thought I'd try configuring Proxmox locally following the documentation. Thought I'd use my preferred text editor vim, but error: root@proxmox:/etc/pve# apt-get install vim Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package vim is...

    Auto backup with NAS4Free storage

    Hello, I need to setup automatic backups on Proxmox properly. I manage local backups which fill the Proxmox disk after 12 months and Proxmox breaks. So, trying again to use Proxmox Backup to NAS4Free storage on a separate machine. I'm unclear how to connect Proxmox Backup storage to NAS4Free...

    io-error

    I deleted /mnt/backup/dump and now have on local (proxmox) Size 54.75 GiB, Used 33.59 GiB and Avail 18.36 GiB. Servers now running. I need to figure out what filled up the local (proxmox) disk. Proxmox does local backups initially. I made a script (or used the GUI) to transfer monthly to an...

    io-error

    How do I see what is on the /dev/dm-0 directory? I'm thinking of deleting this which seems to be taking up 55G. Also, how to see what caused to overfilling of the disks. I'll check the logs, but need to configure Proxmox so Proxmox does not repeat this issue.

    io-error

    Well, not sure how you see the filled disk is /dev/sda third partition? Anyways, maybe I can delete the tmpfs directory mounted on /run. This would clear 3.2G. Then install ncdu, to find out why the disk is full, then clear out, then configure to avoid future issues like this.

    io-error

    Hmm, yum not intalled on Proxmox. I thought Proxmox was a Centos system. Might be Red Hat? Ok, apparently Proxmox is based on Debian. $ apt-get install ncdu E: Unable to locate package ncdu

    io-error

    Hi, I have the io-error again. How can I stop this. I think my HDD is full. I'm not clear on which HDD to make space on? local (proxmox) is full. Also, how to make space on the HDD? This is the server setup: 4 x 120 GB SSDs to setup RAID. 1 x 500 GB HDD for daily backups. I set my local...

    VM no Internet

    The other 2 VMs connect okay to the network. The difference they're running RedHat Centos, so maybe Debian is no longer compatible with Proxmox?

    VM no Internet

    k, thanks. By the way, I just found how to add the network with Network Device Model VirtIO (paravirtualised), rather than Intel E1000. Hasn't resolved the issue though.
