    Problem installing Proxmox

    Does your PC meet the requirements for Proxmox? I've gone below these requirements a little, that yields a weak node.

    SDN configuration

    I have never been able to get PVE's SDN functionality working. I have followed many guides on the web and on YouTube. I'm on PVE 9.0.5. When I try to get it to work, the VMs on different hosts can not talk on that SND network I set up. Anyone aware of a tutorial for setting up SDN so multiple...

    VM, Monitor - Type 'help' for help.

    OK, just learned something: At the very bottom of the window there is a text box. (not very prominent.) Looking through the options now.

    VM, Monitor - Type 'help' for help.

    I hate to bring up this old issue, but I have installed PVE 8.x and am now on PVE 9. And still the question remains, what is the "Monitor" option for? Typing help gives no messages. The Help Button takes you to the top of the documentation with no reference to "monitor". I keep exploring all...

    pveam update fails on turnkeylinux

    OK. Thanks. I have no control over the middle box. This is at the company I work for and they only support Red Hat and the like, so I have no one to talk to. Templates do seem to be updating even if I get an error message.

    pveam update fails on turnkeylinux

    If I go to https://releases.turnkeylinux.org/pve/aplinfo.dat.asc in a browser, I see the cert with no cert failure.

    Target Packages are configured multiple times

    When I try to perform a Refresh on the packages, I get the following messages. They are duplicated for some reason. Does it matter which *.list file I edit? I never touch these files BTW. Fetched 1095 kB in 1s (1135 kB/s) Reading package lists... W: Target Packages...

    2 PVE clusters sharing one NFS NAS?

    Thanks! I've been using PVE and TrueNAS for years and I learn something new almost everyday.

    2 PVE clusters sharing one NFS NAS?

    I have two clusters, each mounting the same TrueNAS SCALE over the same NFS share. Considering that the two clusters can each have the same VMID, won't this cause naming conflicts on the NAS? Should I be using two different shares pointing to two different datasets?

    Internode Networking

    You gave me a hint plus I found this Explainer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRweIgot6aA) So I did nothing on the individual PVE nodes. Then I went to Datacenter -> SDN -> Zones and added a VXLAN called sdn123 I added the IP addresses of each node and set an MTU of 1450 (to allow for...

    Internode Networking

    So, an SDN based off of a Linux Bridge requires an external switch? Which I don't have unfortunately. But VXLAN uses the existing switch I have for communications.

    Internode Networking

    I have been trying to get this to work for about a year now with no success. I have a three PVE cluster with three nodes. all PVE 8.4.1. I have two VMs, on different nodes but the same cluster. I need to have the two VMs to communicate with each other using static IPs over a private network. I...

    CPU types, word of caution

    For those who are running Linux VMs... I don't consider any variance < 10% to be significant given the inherit variability of benchmarks. I used sysbench v1.0.20 BIOS vs UEFI: BIOS is faster but UEFI is becoming the norm. Less than 10% difference. Host vs. x86-64-v4: All sysbench benchmarks...

    New VM Defaults

    I create a lot of VMs that are mostly the same configuration. Templates to the rescue! I know this will be really elemental for some people, but in Proxmox you can create a VM, will all of the tweaks and settings you routinely use. For instance: UEFI boot instead of BIOS Memory amount # of CPU...

    PBS backups of the PBS root disk stopped working

    Unless I get a better answer, I did create a second PBS server to backup the main PBS root disk and this works.

    qmp command 'backup' failed - backup connect failed: command error: http upgrade request timed out

    Reactions:soldanes Are you perchance having this error on one VM or all of them? If just one, what does that VM do?

    PBS backups of the PBS root disk stopped working

    I have a three node PVE 8.3.4 cluster. PBS is running as a VM on one node. Up until last week, it was backing up the PBS VM successfully for many weeks in a row via snapshots. I can certainly understand while the backup would fail as it is trying to freeze the VM while it is being snapshotted...
