    Train Bayes

    How do I train Bayes as to what is SPAM and what is not? It's producing so many false positives that it may make more sense to just turn it off.

    Disk Issues

    We have added some new disks to our Proxmox servers, and we were just looking for some verification that we've reached the right conclusion. We currently have 2x Dell 2.4TB drives in a mirror with a hot spare. We added two more. Of the four that we added (two each to two hosts), two aren't...

    ERROR: job failed with err -13 - Permission denied

    Googling shows that this error message when backing up is most often associated with LXC container permissions. While I do use LXC containers, this error appears to be exclusively on KVM\QEMU VMs. Some of them were freshly created on Proxmox, while others were migrated from VMWare. I am backing...

    Assigning a Role to a User

    I've read through https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/User_Management, but it's not very clear. How do I assign a custom-created role to a user?

    Migrating PVE 1.9 -> 8.2

    I'm not sure how to search Google for this. Can someone point me to documentation on how to migrate old Proxmox containers to a modern server? I already have the new one. just looking to shut down the last two machines on the old server. Maybe I should search for OpenVZ to LXC migration?

    Looking for Cheap and Easy Quorum

    Recommendations for a low-power and cheap device to put into my Proxmox cluster so that I can have a quorum? I quickly bought stuff last week to move my environment to new hardware. I have three R730s (actually, they sent me R730xds, so I think I got a good deal out of it); two will run PVE...

    vSphere 5.5 -> PVE 8.2 Auto Import - 401 Error

    I have had some successful migrations from the same hosts, but on different datastores. The successful datastore is named "RAID10". The unsuccessful datastore is named "NEW". "NEW" doesn't have any special characters, which would cause it to fail. root@PVE1:~# systemctl status pve-esxi* ●...

    Preferred SSDs for ZFS SLOG\L2ARC

    I'm coming from a legacy Nexenta installation, where they had a list of supported SSDs for SLOG and L2ARC. I understand some differences between commercial software and open-source software. I know that consumer SSDs aren't up to the task. Which types of SSDs are preferred for Proxmox ZFS...

    Storage Used Per Backup

    I can find the configured storage per VM\CT. I can find the total space used on the datastore. I can find the deduplication factor. I cannot find the space used per backup. Is that listed anywhere?

    Non-PVE, non-Debian Backup

    Are there any mechanisms to back up VMs (or physical hosts) that aren't using PVE as the hypervisor, or aren't Debian-based? I would like to archive and power-down my current VMware environment.

    SNMP Access to Bridge Table

    Does anyone know how to expose the bridge table to the SNMP daemon on the host? I'm working on getting our network in our monitoring solution and correctly showing neighbors for each device.

    Orchestration With cloud-init

    I was looking into how to utilize cloud-init to fully automate my VM sping up, but it looks like Proxmox has rather weak UI support for cloud-init and that you have to enable snippets and drop a file into the snippets folder to run user-defined commands. True? Any plans to make that more...

    Source of Shutdown?

    We had a server that shutdown yesterday. I do mean shutdown and not powered off. In the "Task History" for that host, I do see a "Stop all VMs and Containers" entry. Is there any way to see *how* that shutdown was requested? Was a button clicked in the web UI? A command entered in the CLI?

    message_rate_limit Didn't Limit The Message Rate

    I set a message_rate_limit of 1 to have one outgoing message per minute. I composed ten emails and sent them in rapid succession. They were all received within 2 minutes. What's wrong?

    Cluster Losing Quorum

    I have a cluster of five servers. Everything is fine for some amount of time (attempting to find a way to track what that amount of time is). The servers all lose quorum. I reboot the first server and then everything is fine again. The quorum also seems kind of messed up. No one agrees on...

    PVE Storage Replication vs. PVE-zsync?

    My goal is to have another copy on another node in the same cluster but at a different location. In looking at the chart on the zsync page: I wouldn't want my VMs replicated to every node in the cluster, nor would I want them replicated to every node that's running ZFS and SSH. Then again...

    Clone LXC CT

    I don't see any built-in methods to clone a CT. What's the best way of going about this? IIRC, it was fairly straight forward in the 1.x days, but I'm not so sure anymore.

    [SOLVED] VLAN to Guest

    I have a CT where I added a second Ethernet port. One is for management and the other is for public access. I can't manage to get the second one to come up. When I do an ifup eth1, it hangs for about a minute and then reports `Failed to bring up eth1.` Thoughts? root@libre:/etc/network# ifup...
