    So, I have have Proxmox running with a VM on one node (node A), and twice each day I run PBS to make a backup of this VM. I runs very smoothly and fast, thanks a lot. In case of problems with node A, I have node B ready to take over. I've tried to connect nodes A and B inside a cluster, adding...

    Creating a separate LAN for new cluster - and feeling foolish

    Hello I'm feeling foolish, I really believe this should be quite simple. I have 2 Proxmox hosts, connected to the same LAN with a gateway to the world outside. This works fine. Now I want to create a separate LAN to use for the cluster I want to set up. Each hosts has 4 ehternet connections...

    Move Proxmox to another disk on the same machine?

    I have a Proxmox installation, humming on nicely on a HPE Microserver with 4 disk bays. Proxmox is installed on a single disk, formatted as ZFS, but this disk is too small, and I also want some redundancy. So now I want to move the entire installation to two, larger disks, with ZFS Raid1 on the...

    Is it possible to update a VM without downtime?

    I have a small cluster with a VM providing services (web, email ..) to the outside world. Now and then this VM needs to be updated, e.g. with a new kernel version, and this may require rebooting the VM, leading to 5-10 minutes of downtime. Is it in some way possible to update the VM without...

    No replicable volumes found?

    I try to replicate a VM from one node to another but get the above message. I've searched the forums, and the solution to this problem seems to be to make sure that the VM volumes aren't marked with "replicate=0". Well, I don't think I have this problem, please take a look here on the...

    I shut down a node, now /etc/pve/qemu-server is out of sync

    I have a small cluster with replication of one VM from one node (A) to another (B). I shut down node A, as I needed to change RAM, but when the node rebooted, the VM (102) on it had disappeared. When I looked into /etc/pve/qemu-server, the file 102.conf was missing. I couldn't make a new file...

    How to restore a single file for a VM

    I have a Proxmox Backup Server making regular backups of a VM on another machine, and it works fine. But I find it hard to restore just a single file. According to the wiki, it's possible to restore a single file, but I can't find the "File Restore" button in the GUI? I can do it via the...

    Proxmox server dies when transferring files to VM

    Today I tried to transfer a lot of photos (5 GB) from a disk, mounted via sshfs, to one of my VMs. This caused the Proxmox host to put full blow on its fan, and it became totally unresponsive. On the screen it showed messages about being out of memory, and killing and reaping kvm. After 10...

    Proxmox server blocked by heavy i/o

    This morning, my VMs on my Proxmox server weren't available. I remember message like "No space left on device", but not quite sure. I've tried several reboots. The machine boots, but the VMs and the GUI don't start. df -h shows Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on udev...

    Can a backup hook script exit from the backup?

    Each night I make a backup from Proxmox to an external HD. With a backup hook script I can check if the external HD is mounted, before the backup job is run. But can I also, in the hook script, prevent the upcoming backup if the HD is not mounted? Jesper, Denmark

    Mounting the filesystem from a "lost" VM

    Yesterday I had serious problems with one of my VMs, and I was forced to recover from a backup. But the data from the VM are still on my disks, running zfs: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Jan 6 12:55 /dev/rpool/data/vm-100-disk-0 -> ../../zd0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Jan 6 12:55...

    Please help: VM disappeared during migration

    I have a small cluster with two hardware servers, HP1 and HP2. On HP1 I have a VM (Centos), running as HA, and everything have been running fine for a long time. Today I tried to copy a lot of files from a USB-disk to the VM, and then everything seemed to stop. The GUI interface to Proxmox was...

    New cluster - now missing "Content" tab

    I recently created a small cluster, only 2 servers and a Raspberry Pi acting as quorum device. Things went smoothly, but now I seem to be missing the usual "Content" tab when looking at my storage: There is no "Content" tab to be found, neither for the Datacenter or the servers. Both servers...

    Please help: can't replace deferred disk

    I had this layout for a small Proxmox server: ZFS told me that /dev/sda was deferred because of errors, so I decided to replace it... 3 hardware disks involved: DEFERRED (no longer in the box), NEW (to replace DEFERRED), OLD (mirror copy). I took DEFERRED offline from the zpool, shutdown the...
