    [SOLVED] VLAN bridge problem with gateways

    As a followup question: Is it enough that I create the VLAN on the enf7f0 nic or should I also tag the bridge interface with vlan 35 when I assign the bridge vmbr4 to a VM NIC?

    [SOLVED] VLAN bridge problem with gateways

    I have a situation where I need different networks for different application groups on a single pmx cluster. To achieve that I have added VLAN's to the config as below. I have repeated the config on each node of the cluster. I have various virtual machines that are configured on the various...

    [SOLVED] Cannot read remotely mounted backup datastore

    No. Like I said higher up: "I'd like to use Proxmox Backup Server 2 to store some backups from other clusters here." It's all a test at this stage. We use clusters in different geographical locations and this "test" cluster is in yet another location. But as you can see from my previous...

    [SOLVED] lxc uid mapping woes

    Thanks, it's sorted now.

    [SOLVED] Cannot read remotely mounted backup datastore

    I have resolved the problem in a really simply way. Put another way: I was being really stupid. :oops: The lxc is already using ceph as storage, so if I simply increase the size of the lxc disk resource and use a directory as a datastore, I can provision enough storage for all my backups...

    [SOLVED] lxc uid mapping woes

    I'm struggling to understand from the example here what the complete logic is behind the uid/gid mapping. I have a container (100). I want to map uid 1034 (which I created for this purpose) to uid 1034 inside the lxc. So, following the example in the above documentation, I added to...

    [SOLVED] Cannot read remotely mounted backup datastore

    I have changed my approach somewhat now by mounting an actual directory of the host OS, which works fine, except that I now have to map the users properly, which I'll do next.

    [SOLVED] Cannot read remotely mounted backup datastore

    On this point, let me ask this related question then. I have a proxmox cluster of older machines with about 20 spinning disks on 7 nodes which we use for development work & testing. Nothing to write home about, but stable and due the use of ceph as virtualised storage a dependable and stable...

    [SOLVED] Cannot read remotely mounted backup datastore

    Oh, I see. Can we put a note in the documentation somewhere to that effect please? It is essentially on the same metal machine on which the lxc with pbs is running. It's still a test at this stage, though I hear you in terms of traffic. Thanks for the response.

    [SOLVED] Cannot read remotely mounted backup datastore

    I have installed PVS 2.0 on a LXC to test an play around with. All is good, except the following: To have some decent storage to write backup to I have mounted a location with sftp as follows: sshfs backup@192.168.121.34:/mnt/pve/cephfs /mnt/cephfs (I have 'hijacked' the backup account...

    Support External RBD And CephFS with Erasure Coded Data Pool

    It's been a while since this has been revisited. Is the proxmox team still adamant that Erasure Coded pools will not be supported? It's becoming a game changer out there, so why would a 2018 decision still hold? Ceph and Erasure Coding have signficant benefits for hosting: More efficient use...

    Ceph Erasure Coding support

    Thanks for the response. We are planning major expansions and of course EC would be a better use of storage resources, since there's only about 40% overhead for full redundancy, while replication has at least a 200% overhead. It would really be good if this could be given some priority.

    Ceph rbd pool or Erasure coding Pool

    Is this still the case? EC seems to be a better choice and is used widely.

    Ceph Erasure Coding support

    It's been a while and I see no-one responded to this. I would also like to use ceph EC. Is there any update on this? Can set up ceph manually and just tell Proxmox to use it?

    I will try the ceph community for this, it's probably more relevant there...

    Backup of some LXC's failing (Permission Denied)

    The problem is described here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/563942/debian-change-owner-of-nobodynogroup The files listed as not accessible all belong to nobody:nogroup. Fix that and the backup will run fine. Or backup from the command line with vzdump and use --exclude-path to...

    Backup of some LXC's failing (Permission Denied)

    More particularly, this seems to have to do with the LXC file system. I have: # ls -la /var/spool/ total 20 drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Jan 24 2019 . drwxr-xr-x 11 root root 4096 Jan 24 2019 .. drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jan 24 2019 cron lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7...

    Backup of some LXC's failing (Permission Denied)

    Indeed, how can it be that this happens to multiple people and no-one knows why? Surely someone at Proxmox knows? It happens with a particular container on my side as well.
