BTW: I set the From address in the Notification Target. It seems like the Verify job does not use it.

PBS 3.2-2 I am trying to set up email notifications. When I go to Notification Targets, and hit Test, I get the test email with a From address like myaddress@company.com. I then go to my PBS storage and set up my verify job and run it, I receive a warning email from the mail server saying it...

PBS 3.2-2 I am trying to setup PBS to send notification emails to an SMTP server that does not need authentication to local email addresses. Here is what I set up: First thing I noticed is that even though I made a change, the OK button is greyed out. If I add a comment, the OK button is...

As we discovered with the Storage Review of Hypervisors, the default host type incurs a performance penalty. I would like to suggest a better "default" setting. With a single node, any setting other than "host" is pointless. In a cluster of multiple nodes all with the same CPU type, any...

So they compared the "default" settings which are generally geared towards max compatibility not towards what a sane SysAdmin would use. Unfortunate.

In the documentation (https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-notifications.html#notification_matchers_field) for type, only vzdump is listed. Is there a list somewhere of these types? Or is that it? Thanks.

Thanks. Opened an enhancement request number 5509.

What do the first and second columns with numbers represent? Should they not be labeled? Just wondered.

Yes, you are correct. The path should have been "/mnt/datastore/datastore_name/vm" Since the content of these folders are quite small and the data is dedupped, what process cleans up blocks no longer used?

I have old backups for VMs that I have since deleted. Can I just safely delete the folders under /mnt/datastore_name/VMID ? A lot of backups so command line is what I am trying to do.

Found it! qm guest cmd 1017 network-get-interfaces | jq '.[1] | ."ip-addresses" | .[0] | ."ip-address"' "10.1.0.76"

Yes, the element I am trying to look at is called "hardware-address". I have so much to learn about JSON and addressing. Please tolerate on more question... So given this: # qm guest cmd 1017 network-get-interfaces | jq '.[1] | ."ip-addresses"' [ { "ip-address": "10.1.0.76"...

I'm trying to create a script that will output the MAC and IP addresses from the VMs on this host. "qm guest cmd 1017 network-get-interfaces | jq ." will generate a valid JSON file. But when I try to address the element "hardware-address" all I get is errors like this: # qm guest cmd 1017...

So I have backup jobs set up on the Proxmox GUI, under Datacenter and backups. Each of these jobs has retention settings defined. So is setting up a scheduled Prune job in PBS really needed?

I created a Linux user called "admin" and put it into the "root" group". I created a user in the Proxmox UI called admin and put it into the "admins" group. I log with the admin account and the "Upgrade" button is grayed out. If I login as "root", the "Upgrade" button is not grayed out. I even...

Filed an enhancement - https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5368

In the GUI, I select Datacenter, then permissions and users. Then "add". I type in the user name and select PAN as the realm. In group I select "admins" then hit "Add". I select the user I just created and press "Password". I type in the password (twice) then hit "OK". The I get the "user 'XXXX'...

Proxmox 8.1.4 - So I created a new user successfully. I select the user and press "Password" and type in a new password. I get an error that says: change password failed: user 'xxxxxxxxx' does not exist (500) The user is there so what is the real problem? I am using the "root" account.

ESXi is usually used for the Free version. vSphere is the paid version of VMware's hypervisor. Anyone know if the migration tools works for VMs using the paid vSphere?
