Hello everyone, I run pve 4.1-26 (kernel 4.2.6-1-pve) with 1 KVM guest (Windows Server 2008 R2). I have a couple of USB dongles that must be passed through to the guest devices. The problem is that, though the dongles have USB interfaces, they are actually serial devices. When I pass the USB...

Thanks for the reply Nemesiz, but I really don't understand what you mean?

Hello, I'm practically out of disk space on a Proxmox 2.x installation and I'm trying to backup the VMs on it onto a remote server. I attached a partition on the remote server to the Proxmox server with sshfs. But everytime I run vzdump I get the message: This applies to all VMs on the...

Hello, I'd just like to know if a pve cluster pools physical hardware resources such that VMs pull from that central pool, and not from any particular server? For example, in a cluster with 2 nodes, each with 10GB of RAM, is it possible to create a VM with 15GB of RAM? I've read the wiki...

I use both; openvz preferably.

The guest is running Oracle Linux 6. Let me see if I understand you: i) I don't need to specify the virtio network device when choosing the network adapter during linux guest setup, I may choose, say, e1000 instead; ii) then after the guest is up and running, I'll use the distro's package...

Hello, I just need to know if one needs to specifically install a KVM paravirtualized network driver inside a linux guest? Or is choosing the virtio option when selecting the network type sufficient? I ask because I had to install the paravirtualized driver for windows inside my Windows...

Hi, I installed from a beta 3 iso; the output of pveversion: The 'local' option is still missing. Is there a video of how to reate a container/vm on version 2 please?

that's now okay, but there's something I'm still not doing right. I added the storage, as below: But when I tried to create a container, I didn't get any options for the storage part: Maybe I'm just stuck in the proxmox 1.x way of doing things:). What do I need to do to indicate where I...

The issue still exists. Here's the screenshot: The output of 'pveversion -v': Thanks for your help.

Hello. I'm having trouble configuring storage on my box (running beta 3). The 'create' at the bottom right hand corner of the pop-up window stays grayed-out even after I fill-in all the values I should. And it doesn't matter what browser I use: firefox 3.6 & 8 and chromium. What could be wrong...

Hello Dietmar, I decided to do a re-installation and I used the excellent tutorial at blog.shadypixel.com/how-to-shrink-an-lvm-volume-safely/ to customise the install (I really don't like how pve divvies up the hard disk). Now my setup looks like this: vbed:~# lvscan ACTIVE...

i really don't understand how that happened. please find details of the container as displayed in pve's web ui: http://rapidshare.com/files/389037360/container_details.jpg.html In any case, how do I resolve this issue, please?

hi dietmar, the output is: vbed1:~# df -h /var/lib/vz Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda2 4.8G 3.9G 684M 86% / I've gone further: vbed1:~# fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 146.1 GB, 146163105792 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 17769 cylinders Units =...

Hello everyone, Let me quickly say kudos to the PVE team for their consistent good work; its much appreciated. I created a container (Ubuntu 8.04 LTS amd64) with 50GB of hard disk space (LVM-based), yet this is the output of 'df -h;: root@microbank:~# df -h Filesystem Size Used...

Hello, I downloaded the debian lenny template and installed it and...I can't do anything with it! I've been trying to get it to acquire an ip address from a dhcp server without any luck. Can anyone tell me how to configure networking (not venet) such that I can get this VM to access my...

Hey Tom, Thanks for the fast response. The reason I asked question 1 is because I wanted to do what I mentioned in question 3. Is 1.4beta OK for production use?

Hello, I just wanna know: i) is it okay to re-allocate how space is divvied up amongst the swap, root and data logical volumes (in the pve volume group) ? ii) can i create logical volumes of my own? iii) i tried creating a vm via the web interface and noticed that the hard disk was in qcow...
