    VM disks gets corrupted on thin ZSF storage

    Hello. My PVE is on 6.4-15 and I faced the exact same problem today. On some of my VM's, the guest OS reported "contains a filesystem with errors" and "inodes that were parts orphan linked list found" while the underlying storage looked OK: - zpool status on the host reported "no know errors" -...

    PMG with a residential FTTH connection

    Hello and thank you for your reply. It's crazy how spam made it complicated to run its own mail server nowadays... I first installed PMG on a VPS as a workaround (to get a static IP), but then I realized it had 2x bonus features: - the VPS is always online (while our mail server is occasionally...

    PMG with a residential FTTH connection

    Hello dcsapak. I am replying about this comment you wrote 18x months ago... Unfortunately, you were right! We are a small company and our mail activity is very normal: - we send/receive emails to/from clients/suppliers - we never spam - we never send newsletters All in all, I think we send and...

    Best way to backup a physical host running on ZFS?

    Ooh thanks. I got it now, I was using absolute paths instead of relative paths... (the --exclude argument is relative to --include-dev). To make it clear for other people: INCORRECT way = proxmox-backup-client backup home_<pc_username>.pxar:/home/<pc_username> --repository...

    Best way to backup a physical host running on ZFS?

    Thanks. I updated to the last version (proxmox-backup-client 1.0.8) but I still have a problem with --exclude: --include-dev '/home/myusername' --exclude '/home/myusername/.cache' doesn't exclude '/home/myusername/.cache' Is there a problem with my syntax?

    Whitelist outgoing mails

    Hello, I am interested in the exact same feature! The idea is simple: if I send an email to alice@example.com, I would like alice@example.com to be automatically added in "Administration -> User Whitelist". I never reply to spam so if I send an email to someone, I would like this person to be...

    PMG with a residential FTTH connection

    Hello Dominik and thank you very much for your answer! So I went for a public cloud instance on OVH. I used this great tutorial https://harrytang.xyz/blog/ovh-public-cloud-custom-iso to install from ISO (instead of on top of debian). The associated IP I received from OVH is not listed on...

    PMG with a residential FTTH connection

    Hello, I am testing PMG with a residential FTTH connection (port 25 works in and out). I am measuring my spam score with mail-tester.com but there are 2 problems I can't solve: problem1 (not so important): My IP is considered as dynamic (even if it never changed since I got this connection ~3...

    Very slow restore from PBS

    Hello, I am currently restoring a VM from PBS. The VM disk is 5TB but there is only 1.1TB of data (thin provisioning). My PBS and my PVE are connected through VPN (both on a 1Gbps FTTH link). Data is usually sent at ~15Mbps. The initial backup took ~12 hours if I recall correctly. But the...

    How to shrink ZFS within VM?

    Hello. Unfortunately I have no choice because Nextcloud ships with ZFS built-in... Can you recommend a technique to shrink the ZFS pool created by Nextcloud (within the VM)?

    Best way to backup a physical host running on ZFS?

    I guess it is needed for ZSsys to work correctly. For example, you can restore the system files to a previous snapshot but preserve the user data of the actual snapshot. Quite handy sometimes...

    How to shrink ZFS within VM?

    Hello, I converted an .OVA Nextcloud appliance from hanssonit to use on proxmox. The created VM had 1x 40GB disk for the OS + 1x 40GB disk for the data (which is a zfs "ncdata" pool mounted at /mnt/ncdata within the VM). Both are virtual disks hosted on a ZFS storage of PVE (vm-101-disk-0 and...

    Best way to backup a physical host running on ZFS?

    Thanks Fabian. I'll just keep including all datasets "manually" until it is implemented in the client then. I was just worried that Ubuntu changes its datasets structure in the future but I'll stick with 20.04 for the moment anyway.

    use proxmox backup server as nested virtualized on proxmox?

    Oh thanks, I didn't see that. Would I lose any feature if the datastore is in a "directory storage" compared to a "zfs storage"?

    Best way to backup a physical host running on ZFS?

    Hello, I am trying to backup a physical computer running Ubuntu 20.04 installed on ZFS. I tried this simple command: sudo proxmox-backup-client backup root.pxar:/ --repository <username>@<ip>:<datastore> But I realized many files were not backed up (nothing in /home/myusername/ for example)...
