My personal recommendation is Mirror for Proxmox OS drives and Z1 for the VMs. This keeps the OS drives separate from everything. Much easier to work with. I personally do not prefer Z1 at all since it only gives 1 drive failure redundancy. But it is understandable in your case due to lack of...

Hello, Has SWAP behavior changed on Proxmox 6? I have noticed that after the upgrade the swap mention has been automatically removed from /etc/fstab. The GUI shows Swap usage N/A for the host. Also LXCs are not swapping any more since the host itself has no swap space allocated. I can fully...

Hello, The PMG is trying to send out lots of Bounce reports to bogus destination we are receiving SPAM emails from. This is putting our IP address into Backscatter IP Blacklist and causing some issue when users are trying to send out emails. Some destination servers rejecting emails coming out...

I have been looking at Proxmox GUI on mobile since it was introduced several years ago. I must say I am very impressed where it is today! Although there are some rooms for improvement, it has been greatly enhanced. I was also really glad to see the console works great now on mobile. I wanted...

That's a great idea @dietmar ! By having the Ceph MON nodes in the cluster and everything else outside looks like the Ceph cluster can still be managed. Just tried it on a Proxmox+Ceph cluster. I removed some OSD nodes from the cluster and I can still see all the OSDs from PMX GUI. Thanks dietmar!

I understand Proxmox is tested in a 16 node cluster lab. Although there are no hard coded limit, Redhat and Suse limits to 32 nodes for technical support perspective. My question is it possible to scale say 80 nodes in a cluster without breaking something. Let's say I want to deploy a Ceph...

eve4pve-barc is a backup app strictly for Ceph RBD. I don't believe it will do a backup when VM is stored on CephFS or any other storage. barc uses rbd export.

The config files that are missing images, are they stored on Ceph? I use --vmid=all key. Initially, when started using barc, some of the VMs were not stored on Ceph. So for those, it only backed up the config files but not the image because it could not create snapshot.

Thank you guys for all your input. It worked fine.

I think my initial post was not clear enough. I am already using 2 pools, one for KVM disk images with KRBD disabled, and the other for LXC containers with KRBD enabled. My question was if I can enable KRBD for the non KRBD pool and start storing LXC containers along with KVM disk images on the...

I do not have a test Ceph cluster to test this with, so wondering if anybody got some info. I have always used 2 ceph pools for KVM and LXC disk images. On LXC Ceph pool I had KRBD enabled while the pool for KVM disk images had KRBD disabled. My question is, can I enable KRBD on the non-KRDB...

Hello, Is there a way to prevent passwordless access into an LXC from hypervisor? Currently, anyone accessing Pmx console can simply use pct command and enter any LXC in the node without needing any credentials at all.

Thanks dietmar. Bug report opened, https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2119

I agree with you dietmar. But when a client runs their own test to check how effective the filter is and they see emails that should have been blocked and they are not, it does cause alarm. Also besides the EICAR test, there have been incidents where emails with attachment got through. When...

Hi dietmar, I used https://www.emailsecuritycheck.net/ to send the virus test email.

Unless I am doing something wrong or things need reconfiguring, I do not think the ClamAV in mailgateway working properly. I sent some EICAR test to our email server and only 1 out of 7 'virus' email got blocked. Repeated test showing the same result. The Action is to remove all attachment which...

I think i got it working. I needed to change the cron task and remove root from there. So it is now sending out hourly report.

I am trying to send out the SPAM report every hour instead of just once a day as it has now become absolutely critical. I tried to add the following in the crontab: 0 8-18 * * 1-5 root /usr/bin/pmgqm send But no reports going out. Any tips?

Do you have memory Ballooning enabled for your Windows VM by any chance?

This is an old thread I started way back when I first stumbled upon Ceph. Felt a bit nostalgic reading it. :) The cluster I started back them has grown into an oak tree. Proxmox did not have any Ceph support on the GUI. My initial cluster was on Ubuntu. was trying to find a better option to...
