    "Limited Security Support" prompt on update

    Hi, today I ran updates of PVE (8.1.3) as usual, and I got this prompt: I have PVE subscriptions and licenses installed on all servers. I can't believe I didn't find anything about this with the forum search function. I think that this is just telling me that the package has to be...

    Owner check failed, even if all backups deleted beforehand

    Hi, so far I did backups as a different user. Now I deleted all old backups, and garbage collected the old backups. According to the GUI the Proxmox backup server (PBS) is completely empty. However if I attempt to do backups as the new user, I am getting errors like: INFO: creating Proxmox...

    Planning a cluster with HA vm with USB modem.

    I have successfully evaluated Proxmox in a HA cluster. And now I just ordered new servers from Dell that this will be running on commercially. One thing where I am not sure yet if it's possible: One of our current machines is using a USB modem to query an embedded legacy machine every night...

    Ceph OSD on LVM logical volume.

    Hi, I know it's not recommended for performance reasons. But I want to create a Ceph OSD on a node with just a single NVMe SSD. So I kept some free space on the SSD during install. And then created a new logical volume with `lvcreate -n vz -V 10G pve` However that volume does not show up when...
