    Memory Issues and Constant Crashing - Replaced Everything and looking for ideas?

    Recently I have had many issues from corrupt SSD to regular crashing. And more recently when running things like apt upgrade it seems to find checksum errors in the files downloaded. So you might think - that sounds like dodgy RAM? I ran memtest all day and no issues. Same thing. I then...

    certificate expiry

    All, over the last week there have been a few reports in the media of embarrassments caused by certificate expiries that apparently nobody was on top of. Chromecast is one of the high profile issues and it made things extremely hard to fix due to the nature of certificates and the fact that it...

    Random Replication Job: '110-0' failed then it doesn't then it does then it doesn't...

    I have slowly been seeing more and more replication job failed errors. By the time I get to them, the problem has gone and I cannot find a sensible log to work out what the problem is. I would suggest the configuration isn't wrong per-se otherwise it wouldn't work most of the time. I get a...

    Upgrading Containers to u24.04

    TLDR it failed to boot. Then I upgraded proxmox for some other reason and when it rebooted my upgraded container sprang into life. So the questions is - is this something to do with the kernel being upgraded? I'd just like to understand that a bit better. I had upgraded containers before and...

    BUG in snapshots

    Snapshots should be a safety feature meaning that the user can use them to try something safe in the knowledge that they can revert back. In my case there always seems to be a reason why this doesn't work as it should. Here's an example: I had created a more recent snapshot but it can't roll...

    Did Promox version update move my disks?

    I have been using a guest hookscript for a few years that runs fsck on disks on the pre-start hook. It does this because the VM I am running uses a kernel boot file and so there is no opportunity to check the disk from within it. Anyway, the script ran but didn't find the disks. Long story...

    Container crash Broke the node

    I have a 5 node system where only 1 - 3 have any workload, a mixture of imported KVM VM's and new containers. This morning something wasn't right with one of the containers which was responsible for a couple of intranet websites. As we couldn't ssh to the container we went to look to see if it...

    [SOLVED] Unexpected Cluster Reboot

    All, have a cluster of 3 dell servers running about a dozen VM's and containers rebooted itself and I cannot find a reason why. At the moment it looks like all 3 rebooted at precisely the same time. Previously, I have had this happen (as expected) due to watchdog timeout should networking be...

    [SOLVED] Migrating a VM with 48G disk migrates 400Gb.

    I am not quite sure what's happening here. I am migrating a VM that has a disk that is 48G vm-101-disk-2 But when migrating it finds a whole lot more to migrate that I expected. Migration In the pool for 101 I find: What are these sub-vols and where did they come from? Are they...

    [SOLVED] Node Capacity / Memory - can I add more VM's or is it full?

    A question I have had for a while and never got around to asking: I have many Proxmox clusters which usually contain 3 nodes, Xeon 128Gb SSD. What I don't really have a feel for is what capacity those nodes have for the number of concurrent VM/containers. As an example I migrated 6 VM's which...

    [SOLVED] hookscript trips on PVE binary

    I created a simple hookscript based on the example and attached to my VM. $ qm start 109 hookscript error for 109 on pre-start: command '/mnt/pve/replica/snippets/wms-precheck.pl 109 pre-start' failed: open3: exec of /mnt/pve/replica/snippets/wms-precheck.pl 109 pre-start failed: Text...

    Adding node to cluster of 3 broke the cluster

    Early days, can't make heads or tails of it but we have a cluster of 3 nodes with HA, replication happily chugging along. When we came to add a 3rd node basically looks like all hell broke loose, all 3 nodes restarted red x's on the nodes, couldn't get in on the web interface. All VM's were...

    how to stop a replication job

    I have a replication job that has been running for 20 hours and is blocking all the other replication jobs. Due to a change I need to abandon the running job. It should be using the migration network but wasn't configured correctly when started. Which is the best way to do this?

    disks become unwritable after snapshot

    Still having the same issue as I've always had, and its really a showstopper for the use of proxmox for anything important. Have a VM imported from legacy KVM previous version of qemu. Everything runs perfectly fine except when you perform a backup to snapshot about 1/10 times this breaks the...

    VM IO Failure

    [SOLVED] Use replication network

    Hi, I have a 3 node network and each node has two networks the primary 1Gbit and a secondary 10Gbit. We are using the secondary for replication. A backup server also has both these networks. Can the backups be made to go via the backup network? At the moment I think they are going via the...

    VM fails to boot on 7.3-6 [Booting From Rom]

    I have multiple legacy VM's that do not boot on the latest version, but ran fine on a recent but previous version. V7.3-6 Previous Version: V7.2-3, same machine, booted and at login prompt. They are identical machines, the newer server is restored from a backup. To check the backup I...

    Shared isn't Shared

    I have 3 nodes joined together and I have imported some legacy KVM virtual machines. These require kernel boot images which I have configured in the conf file as an argument. At the moment I have put those files on an NFS share that all nodes can see so they have the same path on all nodes...

    Snapshot - crashes VM by messing up the disks

    Sometime last year I found that when snapshotting a running container with mariadb would cause the database to be unable to complete any queries - the process was running but queries just stacked up. It was as if the fs was missing briefly but could not recover. It was assumed it was a mariadb...
