I have been thinking about moving from Linux Bridges to OVS. The reason that I wanted to move to OVS is that I have decided that I wanted to virtualize pfSense and I make use of about 12 VLANs and it seems to easier to work with VLANS under OVS as Linux bridges. Also since I am using PM with a...

I have never had to even think about bond and now it looks like it seems like I need to learn something new (not that I am complaining). So the way I had my pfsense set up was the following: WAN: DHCP LAN: 192.168.4.0/24 OPT: VL05 MGMT - 192.168.5.0/24 VL10 CLRNET - 192.168.10.0/24 VL15...

I just decided to virtualize pfsense and ran across this thread. O Would you be willing to share your /etc/network/interface file. I an getting ready to move pfsense over to a single interface machine and would like to see how to handle interfaces. Currently, I am running pfsense on a...

I think before I become concerned with whether I use LVM or ZFS, I really need to understand why I can't utilize the drives although proxmox sees the drives. When I look at the Disks, it see the drives but sees then as partitions. What should I need to do so that PM sees them as devices that...

I have two external 4TB usb drives that I wanted to use as a storage pool. I installed PM 6.1 using the standard method with LVM layout. I see there is a way to do an install with ZFS, but I thought I would go with the default. On the other hand, I thought that I would create a zpool using the...

Thanks for the info. Assuming I put PM6 on a SSD, what is the best configuration... Do I go with the standard LVM default or it is time to make the move to shift towards ZFS and RAID-Z? I am sure that there is greater complexity using ZFS.

I have been looking at purchasing a HP Z800 workstation. The idea of have 12 cores/24 threads sounds like I can really be productive. I have yet to get the correct storage layout, but it would seem that the Z800 has only 4 drive bays and no real room to add for instance, a 1TB boot HD for...

I currently have docker sitting on the pve body. I decided to docker based version of atomic toolkit which is various media apps like plex, Sabnzbd, sonarr, etc. Lots of ports to keep track of, and more importantly, as I add more apps, there is more complexity. For instance, say I wanted to...

I happened to run across this thread when I was looking around for the same topic. Since I am using pve on a laptop, I am always looking for ways to reduce resource usage. If I read this correctly, I could spin up a ubuntu 18.04 lxc container, and from there, install docker. I am trying to...

I have been running the default linux bridge, but would like to switch over to ovs. I have apt-get openvswitch and now to need to understand how to install?

Thanks for the response!

My PVE box is connected to my pfSense box, so I have not tried to make use of the internal PVE firewall. I have been noticing that the console to my VM as well as ssh login constantly drops on a regular basis. Sometime, trying to ssh into the VM, I don't even get a login before it times out...

I forgot to set the VLAN tag id when I created the VM image. I would still like to move towards ovs, but for now I am a happy camper.

I have created an /etc/network/interfaces: /etc/network/interfaces.ovs # Loopback interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # Bridge for our enp0s25 physical interfaces and vlan virtual interfaces (our VMs will # also attach to this bridge) auto vmbr0 allow-ovs vmbr0 iface vmbr0 inet manual...

Right now, I am doing VMs (for instance, I am trying to get Atomic Toolkit under Ubuntu Server 18.04), but as some point, I would rather get the lxc containers in play since from a density standpoint, considering that I am running a HP ProBook 6570b with 12GB RAM and 2TB hd. At some point I...

I have a static IP on the PM host and it works with no issues. My problem is with my images and container that I am have an issue with. When I create a KVM image (for instance Ubuntu Server 18.04), I give it a static IP that is on my VLAN10_CLRNET (192.168.10.0/24) segment. I incorrectly assumed...

I am glad that I ran into the thread, because I have been running to issue a week or so and not getting anywhere. I have Proxmox running on a laptop with a single interface. I run externally pfSense and have several VLANs defined, and I thought I would place the Proxmox box on my VLAN05_MGMT...

I tried to be creative and make some changes to the example and this was no helpful. First I change the interface name from enp0s25 to eth0. I then rebuilt grub.cfg so the changed interface name would stick. At this point, I changed the original /etc/network/interface to the modified interfaces...

Thanks for the response! I have read this page, but it only creates more questions. The following is my network configuration on my router: VLAN05_MGMT ---> 192.168.5.0/24 # Management interface VLAN10_CLRNET ---> 192.168.10.0/24 # Local LAN VLAN15_GUEST ---> 192.168.15.0/24 # WiFi...

Thanks for the response! It would seem that when I updated my BIOS, my VT-X option was turned back off. A quick click to turn back VT-X and life is good once again!
