    CPU usage 100%. Virtual machine hangs

    I have the high CPU usage in the virtual machine, not in the host machine, so I am not sure how this can help (Cpanel runs 2.4.x kernels) The virtual machine is not reactive and doesn´t log anything, I have to reset it or stop it (shutdown doesn´t work) and start it again. Where do I look for...

    CPU usage 100%. Virtual machine hangs

    Hi, I migrated two proxmox virtual machines from Proxmox 4.4 to 5.1. I took advantage and I migrated to ZFS. The old server had SATA disks while the new one has SSD disks. I have only two VPS running in this server. Both running Centos 6.9, one plesk and the other one Cpanel. The Plesk...

    sparse and compression

    Both two VMs come from the same proxmox server. If I set to zfs set refreservation=none it will decrease the space used or there isn´t a way back?

    Why those different values? I didn´t do anything different when I imported the raw disks

    Proxmox 5.1 remote backup

    I have set up ZFS on two nodes. I am googling around to get any tutorial to do what I want, which is to perform a daily sync and performing a backup in the second node. I see people complaining about snapshots clean up but I don´t find any information of how to do it. If I don´t have much...

    sparse and compression

    Dear all, Is it advisable to use sparse on ZFS pools performance wise? And compression? Which kind of compression? Can I change a zpool to sparse on the fly or do I need to turn off all VMs before doing so? Why a virtual disk shows as 60G when originally It was 36 Gb in raw format? NAME...

    shrinking VM disks

    I ended up cloning the qcow2 disk with gparted into a second disk I created. For the record, make sure to copy the MBR. Now I have a qcow2 with a smaller disk size.

    Proxmox 5.1 remote backup

    Ok, I have installed ZFS at OVH (they have an installer with Proxmox 5.1). They create a rpool zfs volume. Within they create: /rpool/data /rpool/ROOT /rpool/ROOT/pve-1 but I don´t see them when I run zpool list. It´s a little bit confusing coming from file-based system where all images of...

    Howto Change virtual size of a qcow2 Image

    I have solved it creating a new virtual disk with the final size you want. Then you can clone the original qcow2 disk with gparted. Make sure you copy the MBR with: dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=446 count=1 or dd if=/dev/sda of=/mnt/mbr.bin bs=446 count=1 dd if=/mnt/mbr.bin of=/dev/sdb...

    NAT configuration

    I have installed Proxmox 5.1. Can I have two vmbr ? One for the bridge IPs and another for NAT? I want to have two VMs that only have access to Internet but not reachable from outside.

    Hi, I am migrating from a server with Proxmox 4.4-18 with SATA drives to a Proxmox 5.1-36 with SSD drives. I am trying to get the best in performance. I already split OS and data disk drives so /home folder is not being backed up by Proxmox, only OS. Filesystem Size Used Avail Use%...
