What are the contents of your /etc/pve/storage.cfg ?

Oh, wait.. I misread that as "the hard drives appear under Disks" (the difference being, "Disks" is just the hardware, "Storage" got meaning to Proxmox). So you got the storage available, but your containers and VM's on it are not available, let alone running? I _think_ you can just create a...

Hi nonymus, Welcome to the forums :-) Yes, there is! Proxmox 'knows' the storage that is registered in `/etc/pve/storage.cfg`. Which kind of storage did you use, as in ZFS, LVM, ...? Depending on that, you'd start the stanza with the one or the other keyword. For example, a snippet of my...

Hi all, I started a backup to tape. There were about one and a half tape free (in a four-tape set), I did not think of allocating more tapes to the pool. Unfortunately, there is more data to back up than there is tape in the pool. The task ended in `alloc writable media in pool 'tapeset'...

Hi all, I just completed backup and verification of a snapshot and started a task to write it to tape. There are six snapshots of this container, the fifth of which failed verification. Only the first snapshot has been written to tape previously My intention was to write only the last...

Hi harsalpatel, Welcome to the forums! You make existing storage known to PVE by adding a record in `/etc/pve/storage.cfg`. I'd make a copy of the file first, and then have a look at the existing records to add one of myself. This one I added to my own config: lvmthin: mt_alledingen_pool...

I can't help you :-( A couple of weeks ago I was in a similar situation, with the important difference (I think?) that in my case it was just a test, the live system was running without problem. Maybe you could change the title of the thread to something like 'How to restore a backup with...

Hi akashb, Did you read the log, and check the note that the system left? restore failed: reading file "/mnt/datastore/DS04/.chunks/443f/443f9da97d89ec842ff7bd3b758deda4451000f4dfd2b680e51eb9af491a03b8" failed: No such file or directory (os error 2) Did you (succesfully?) run verification...

Hi dcsapak, Thanks once again for helping me out! Haha, quite so :-P

ok, so these are the management ports. I wanted to ask about the other ports, and just noticed you (indeed) used one of the other ports for guest networking :-) Nice you got it solved!

Hi all, I'm contemplating replacing a mail server with PMG. The installation options that are relevant to me are 'on top of Debian' (together with PVE) or 'Download the LXC template' The mail server sees a fairly low volume of mail. Is there any benefit to one or the other option? The only...

I'd like to chime in with Maximiliano. What is your goal with putting the VM in another subnet? The IPs in your examples seem quite random (nothing wrong with that, of course ;-) )

Hi, I'm a bit late to the party with maybe not a useful question, anyway :-P Not so new anymore in the meantime :-) With TrueNAS scale running Linux, why would you run a VM when a container works perfectly with fewer resources and higher performance? You could do away with passthrough and...

I offer Nextcloud upload links for exactly that. My Nextcloud runs on Yunohost, Jirafeau is another (more lightweight) app in its catalog to provide just that service. There are probably numerous services that provide something like that. Oh, yes, and if everything else fails, XKCD Whichever...

Did you setup your DNS for samba.domain.com? By the way, your will not actually name it samba in DNS, would you? It works of course, but with DNS being public and samba not always easily configured securely, it might not be the best name :-P SFTP is included with OpenSSH. If you manage to SSH...

So, Proxmox runs on your laptop, and it boots with no problem? After booting, does it show a login prompt with just above that the address where the web interface can be found? Is that the address you'd expect? But not new to Linux and networking? Proxmox is plain Debian with some magic glue...

@jhawk2k20 's (easy to follow!) instructions don't say you should not use Proxmox; I read it as "Proxmox is not needed for Minecraft". I think the things you mentioned could easily run on a computer with Debian installed. Also without virtualization or containerization, either from Windows to...

I have zero experience with Windows in general, let alone on Proxmox, so in that regard I'm less than useless. I did notice 'raw' as the disk format, as opposed to qcow2. This probobly is exactly _because_ you use LVM thin provisioning. With thin provisioning you already have the low disk...

Thanks! I was not familiar with the abbreviation :-)

I had to think about this one. The rationale would be: With power loss protection, ZFS will perform write-back, ie, YOLO-writes to storage Without power loss protection, ZFS will perform write-through writes to storage Before running TRIM, there might not be enough freely available blocks...
