Hi I had attached an external hdd via usb to the server and after initializing it and creating a zfs, created a directory on top in order to store backups. i need now to remove it and probably manually umount it, in order to attach it to a different server and restore one Vm from there (in...

Theoretical part As a general rule, sfdisk is used to manage MBR partition tables and sgdisk is used to manage GPT partition tables. Admittedly though UEFI should fall back to using the /efi/boot/bootx64.efi (more accurately /efi/boot/boot{machine type short-name}.efi) when the partition IDs...

Hi. Is this path only for user's manual mount disks? Because I couldn t see system's disks except the one I created (see below mnt-pve-extusb.mount)

So it is pointless to show these kind of messages in syslog, when they don t reflect real values and the user has to make formulas to calculate the real ones. Thank you for this

I am having below type of syslog messages for hdd temps attribute which is both insanely high, when the room is constantly at 19 degrees Celsius and smart data showing all temps of disks between 29 -32 for sas drives and 38-41 for the sata ones Jun 26 11:37:45 HHprox smartd[4621]: Device...

Hi I was trying to setup a VPN server on a VM and got this message during configuration .... <<<Some VMs prohibit the Promiscuous mode (MAC Address Spoofing) on the network adapters by default. If Promiscuous mode is administratively disabled, the local bridge function between a Virtual...

New edit : I tried to somehow replicate my work's environment and did install prox on a test server and created a mirror storage for Vms called vmpool upon x2 1Tb disks. Afterwards I off-lined one of the two disks simulating the error condition of the disk, shut down the server, replaced the...

Can t this be done from gui as well by initializing the disk and create GPT partition (2 simple clikcs) Also why only a single partition, while all the disks have a separate one as well? New edit: since I ve tested the procedure you don t need to create anything. Just wipe the disk and replace...

Hi I already read many posts about the title's procedure and had a guide written, but when it comes real world production environment, anxiety takes place and many things could go wrong. So I need your approval, before driving 65Kms to work on Saturday to replace a failed (ready to fail)...

... and how is that done?

probably.... its been 3+ years when I had this and saved it for future reference. But you get the point of syslog floods easily when something is not available instead of notify you otherwise. When this happens each second then it gets not helpful at all

... since it was part of a cluster it will. info The pvesr command line tool manages the Proxmox VE storage replication framework. Storage replication brings redundancy for guests using local storage and reduces migration time. It replicates guest volumes to another node so that all data is...

Is this the only way or you can suppress those messages as well? This would help if you had (step aside the quorum thing) 2 or more nodes added and for some reason you want to shutdown one OFTHEM(without having HA). This as well floods syslog. Isn t there a .conf file where you suppress or...

I shut it down for testing purposes since I am always testing things. By Disabled you mean go to Datacenter -> Storage ->Edit the 10g storage and untick Enable?

Hi Is there a way to minimize the number of times proxmox searches for missing services or connections? For instance I have shut down the 10g connection between prox and Nas and the syslog floods like below which is irritating and keeps ssd busy without (for me at least) any reason for...

Hi i recently finished the 10g connection between Proxmox and TrueNas Scale. My purpose might be a little odd to be considered as a general use case scenario but here it goes nevertheless. The connection established via NFS and Iscsi and I left async as default so enabled for both...

Nice example there! So in my case I want (because I believe it is better) volblock=4k and ashift =9=512b x 2 mirrors = 1k . I don t consider this to be near Way it is now volblock=8k and ashift =9=512b x 2 mirrors = 1k. There is way more distance than what I am trying...

Ok that would be sufficient enough at first place. So I was trying to make everything (at least theoretically) 1:1. wIth an OS doing read/writes at 4k (possibly you could change that somehow but I don t care to go that direction) we need the underlaying storage to use 4k blocks as well. With...

Why would I want to do that at first place? One thing that it is not debatable (at least I am under that impression) is the disk - ashift relationship. 512/512 =ashift 9 (2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2=512) and 512/4096 or 4096/4096 (not quite sure if this exists) ashift =12(2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2)=4096 If...

Thanks for the link (I ll read it later on) I think its not when it is why you use ashift =12. For 512e drives (4k physical -> 512 logical) you use ashift of 12 in order to avoid padding / shifting or how is that called. Is it <<you are using>> or your drives use 4k sectors physically? For...
