    [SOLVED] How do you restore backups?

    Oh wow I never even noticed that option there, doh! Thanks for pointing it out. I see the backups now.

    [SOLVED] How do you restore backups?

    I don't see the backups from PBS in that list, only the ones I did locally within PVE before I installed PBS. I did add PBS as a storage type and did schedule the job. I ran it manually though, would that be an issue? I see the backups within PBS itself but not in the cluster.

    [SOLVED] How do you restore backups?

    I can't for the life of me figure out how to do a restore. I installed Proxmox Backup Server, set it up on my cluster, ran a job, it did all the backups, and I see them in the backup server, but I don't see anywhere on either the Proxmox cluster or backup server on how to actually restore...

    [SOLVED] New install, can't add datastore get "EPERM: Operation not permitted"

    Was not sure if backup was just an example user that they used for the tutorial or something actually built in. So ended up having to create that user on the NAS and make sure the uid matches and now it works. I figured all_squash would prevent needing to do that. It now let me create the...

    [SOLVED] New install, can't add datastore get "EPERM: Operation not permitted"

    I just use Linux as my NAS and have the share exported. Permissions with NFS have always been a pain so I just use squash option so it forces everything to be one user/group and it doesn't matter of the client user/group. This is how the export is set: /volumes/raid2/pve_pbs...

    [SOLVED] New install, can't add datastore get "EPERM: Operation not permitted"

    I am trying to add a local datastore, pointing to a folder that is mounted to a NFS share. I have verified that I can read and write to the folder from the console, I have squash setup on the NFS server so it shouldn't matter what user on the PBS server that tries to write to it. It's also...

    Is there a mechanism that could cause a node to shutdown?

    That's what I figured but is not what happened here. Had a node already off, lost another for an unknown reason, booted back the node that I had previously shut down, another node went down, then when I turned on the node that originally went down for an unknown reason another node went rogue...

    Is there a mechanism that could cause a node to shutdown?

    I am currently in the process of doing that. Most of my VMs got corrupted in this incident so need to rebuild them all, some from backups, some I am able to repair. It's a pain. Still have no idea why this happened but from what I've been told on another forum it sounds like HA does NOT do what...

    What would cause a backup to not work, can I recover from this? [solved]

    I had a massive cluster failure, long story short after a series of failures one node went rogue and started up VMs that were already running so it ended up causing massive corruption across the board. All the VMs that are already running work but minute I reboot them they fail. So I've been...

    Is there a mechanism that could cause a node to shutdown?

    it's a very slow process since SSH keeps locking up but here's the output of those commands: root@pve02:~# pvecm status Cluster information ------------------- Name: PVEProduction Config Version: 11 Transport: knet Secure auth: on Quorum information...

    Is there a mechanism that could cause a node to shutdown?

    The cluster itself has quorum but the 4th node did not. it's a 4 node cluster, I set one of the nodes to have 2 votes (this one never went down) as setting up qdevice looks quite involved from what I read, and I plan to add a 5th node eventually so didn't want to go through all that work for...

    Is there a mechanism that could cause a node to shutdown?

    Yeah whole cluster is finished. Don't know what to do. VMs are running but it's like the CPU keeps locking on and off on the entire cluster. Performance is complete garbage, can't do anything on any of the VMs. Keep losing connection to the web interface, keep having to hit refresh, SSH...

    Is there a mechanism that could cause a node to shutdown?

    I ended up removing the node from the cluster entirely as it was acting weird, like tying to start VMs that are already started on the other nodes. But now it still shows up in the cluster even though pvecm nodes does no longer list it. I ended up shutting it down to prevent corruption because...

    Is there a mechanism that could cause a node to shutdown?

    So one of the nodes is actually online, in the sense that I can SSH to it, but it shows up as offline in the cluster. What would cause this? I rebooted it but it still shows offline. When I do pvecm status it shows quorum is blocked. Is there a way to find out why?

    Is there a mechanism that could cause a node to shutdown?

    I discovered today that one of my nodes was off. I don't currently have physical access since I'm at work so it could very well be some kind of hardware failure, but I remote powered on another node that had been turned off to save power (only have one that has IPMI the others don't), since I...

    Unable to move large disk, times out

    Was able to get it to work, I had to disable preallocation under cluster/storage so that it creates it faster then it doesn't time out.

    Unable to move large disk, times out

    I am trying to move a disk that is 6TB from one NFS share to the other but the command times out while creating the disk. I'm guessing it's because it just takes longer. Is there a way to disable or increase this timeout? Seems to me it would be more smart for it to look for an actual failure...

    Redundant storage connectivity options with 2 network switches

    Good to know these options exist, something I'll look into once I do my upgrade.

    Redundant storage connectivity options with 2 network switches

    I am looking at upgrading my networking and thinking I want to go with 2 switches. The NAS, and each VM server would get 2 10 gig links, one from each switch. Is there any configuration options for setting this up so traffic can use both links and if one fails it just continues to work? Or...

    USB serial device Passthrough fails after a short while

    I've been doing more troubleshooting on this but not really getting anywhere. It's also affecting the other USB device, but that one seems to last longer, like 10 hours. The devices don't actually drop out or anything they just stop responding. Can still connect with picocom but can't do...
