    "Cloning" - nested Proxmox

    I was trying to clone new Standalone Proxmox installation on KVM by doing a backup to PBS server then restoring that backup as a new virtual machine. Worked quite well. Then I updated /etc/hostname /etc/hosts /etc/network/interfaces and regenerated ssh keys with ssh-keygen -A After reboot I...

    Unexpected tunnelin/forwarding attempts after upgrade

    I'm thinking this maybe the cause: root@vm2404:~# cat /var/log/syslog |grep block Oct 29 14:42:33 vm2404.ic4.eu kernel: [681424.800987] vmbr1: port 9(fwpr700p0) entered blocking state Oct 29 14:42:33 vm2404.ic4.eu kernel: [681424.808510] fwbr700i0: port 1(fwln700i0) entered blocking state...

    After upgrade this message started occasionally flash on LXC terminals. channel 3: open failed: administratively prohibited: open failed Then after a few seconds it disappears and says something about forwarding but too quickly to see. Remote port forwarding failed to listen on port XXX Oddly...

    rsyslog

    I can't seem to get remote logging to work on Debian12 LXC containers. FQDN works on Qemu servers but the same rsyslog.conf file does not give full name from LXC container. Any idea what's going on here..?

    Manual installation on Debian 12

    If Debian 12 has been installed with minimal network boot CD/ISO/USB then it probably does not include bridge-utils which is mandatory component to get vmbr bridges to work. Make sure you install it with apt install bridge-utils first then fix these files /etc/hosts and /etc/network/interfaces...

    root@pam user and key based authentication

    hmm. I don't understand why root@pam always asks password when I do this: /usr/bin/proxmox-backup-client backup etc.pxar:/etc var.pxar:/var --repository backup.ic4.eu:store1 The backup-client is Proxmox host and should have proper keys to backup server.

    Remote Syslog

    I have always felt journalctl was a step in wrong direction. "KISS. Keep It Simple Stupid." Those are words to live by. Other as good is... "If it's not broken don't try to fix it."

    virtual_alias_maps

    I have been testing PMG for a while now and I have to say I'm impressed. I like how simple it is to use. There is one thing that it's missing though. You can have finer grained control (than domain level) by putting me@example.com in transport_maps by using virtual_alias_maps. # transport...

    Number of mails in Queue - daily status report mail

    Sometimes LXC kills (random) services if it's running out of memory. Usually it kills ClamAV because it uses most memory but sometimes it's something else. Clam is really annoying because when it loads new DataBase it doubles the memory it needs momentarely before it unloads the old database...

    antiCLAM. Waste of good memory.

    I currently have this command running in cron: echo "ConcurrentDatabaseReload no" >> /etc/clamav/clamd.conf && systemctl restart clam* I would like to disable all Clam related services in our PMGW. Any suggestions on how to do that?

    How to read Proxmox ZFS disks from a crashed server

    zpool import -o readonly=on -f POOLNAME That was only command that worked for me... and I had to give that from live ISO image. After that I could read the pool and copy images to safety.

    Encrypted drive migration

    Interesting thread. I was hoping for some better news. Encrypted disk backup's are working allready but are basically in RAW format, so maybe thats not such a bad idea for migration. (My 2 cents worth.)

    How to backup Unused/Detached Disk

    How to backup/copy "Unused Disk 0" sdb-lvm:vm2404-disk-1 from Proxmox host using rsync? I can "see it" on Proxmox GUI but since it's not mounted I'm not sure how to access it remotely. (SDB is LVM.)
