    NFS Server & Client Question

    We have been very successful in setting up PM 1.8 to work as a NFS client at the hypervisor level and then bind all OpenVZ guests to the NFS connection. It works great, very reliable and very easy to manage. However we are now looking to do something more. One of the OpenVZ hosts on a PM 1.8...

    Anyone have an ISO of Proxmox 1.8 they are spare?

    Yes, I know.... Its outdated. And yes, I will upgrade this one day. But I have a cluster of servers running it, and one is out of state. So I need to add another one to the cluster, went looking for my trusty CD and can't find it. So I thought, "No biggie, I'll download one from the Proxmox...

    PM 1.8, Clustering (PVECA) not working on remote servers

    Interesting... I checked it on the master, and its running (shows with a ps ax | grep pvetunnel). That has one slave machine connected to the cluster successfully, so I think the master is working just fine. Checked on the remote host and its not running there. I restarted it, but its still...

    PM 1.8, Clustering (PVECA) not working on remote servers

    More info... The fourth PM server which is located in the same data center, but is not behind the same firewall as the two servers that have been connected together in cluster and are working great, and is in the same timezone as the master, also fails with the identical error as the remote...

    PM 1.8, Clustering (PVECA) not working on remote servers

    One further piece of information.... The secondary server that I'm attempting to connect to the master is in a different timezone to the master. This server is in US Central Std Time and the master is in US Arizona (MST). There is a 1 hour time difference between both servers, however both...

    PM 1.8, Clustering (PVECA) not working on remote servers

    I have four (4) PM 1.8 servers all running identical PM versions. Two are located on the same LAN and 2 are on remote servers. No issues with joining the two serves on the LAN, but I'm not having any luck with the remote servers. Thinking its a firewall issue, I've opened port 22 on both the...

    Advice on Shared Storage for Proxmox Cluster

    I'd second the recommendation on OpenFiler. If you are looking for an 'enterprise tough' SAN solution, its hard to beat.

    proxmox is very slow at reading from an NFS share!

    We do our backups through VZDump on PM to NFS, and it works really fast (read & write). What NICs are you using?

    Proxmox 1.8 Cluster - Can I change the VMID of a VM on a slave?

    Thank you, and I will follow your advice. Out of interest, is there a similar conf file for OpenVZ containers as well? Myles

    Proxmox 1.8 Cluster - Can I change the VMID of a VM on a slave?

    I have three Proxmox servers and I am trying to have them all set in a cluster. They all run PM 1.8 and I have two of them successfully linked together. The third one was installed and setup with about 4 VMs last year, and they unfortunately share common VMIDs with the master. I understand...

    PM 1.8 - Cannot start KVM Windows Guest after reboot

    Thank you all for your help. I'm not much of an expert on KVM management, but I was able to work this out. When I started this via the command line, per Dietmar's instructions, I got back "VM is locked (backup)". I suspect that my problem had little to do with rebooting my server, but...

    Adding Cluster support on production system

    Thank you. That's great news. Of course I'll backup them the VMs first :) Is it still the case with PM 1.8 that the VMs on the slave server will be deleted when the slave PM 1.8 server is added to the cluster though? Myles

    Adding Cluster support on production system

    I have a PM 1.8 server that runs great. I have just moved a 2nd PM 1.8 box into our data center so that I can do migrations between both PM servers using the clustering functionality. In researching this, I read that there are issues with adding a child server to a master for clustering, but...

    PM 1.8 - Cannot start KVM Windows Guest after reboot

    I have a PM 1.8 server that has been running flawlessly for about 12+ months. It has about 8 OpenVZ guests (CentOS 5) and about 3 months ago, I put a Windows Server 2003 on a KVM on there. Last Friday evening, we closed it down gracefully to upgrade the memory on the box from 12GB to 32GB...

    [SOLVED] Re: vmbr Network Question - Proxmox 1.8 & IPCop 2.0.2 Just wanted to update this thread to say that I have it solved. I now have a perfectly working Proxmox VE 1.8 server with IPCop 2.0.2 as a KVM on it, and a number of CentOS5 servers in the GREEN network. The IPCop is setup to...

    vmbr Network Question - Proxmox 1.8 & IPCop 2.0.2

    Thanks for the reply. I can't see anyway in Proxmox to set the networking to anything other than venet though. The Network screen to configure the OpenVZ container in 1.8 only has reference to venet and no option to change it to veth. Where do I change this? Myles FOUND OUT HOW: Seems that...

    Weird networking results - Proxmox VE 1.8 & IPCop 2

    I am setting up a server to be part of a cluster, and installing it with IPCop v2 firewall (as a KVM) to front other containers. However I'm getting really strange results when creating an OpenVZ container on this box.... I have colocated this server (single 1U box, with a ton of memory), and...
