    Cant start PVEPROXY

    Ive read a few posts here about this issue, but none seem to be my issue. Here is what happened. We installed MegaRaid MSM management software so I could monitor / maintain the built in RAID. Then, we had a problem, so I uninstalled it. After that I lost the GUI for Proxmox. When I try to start...

    Host key verification failed.

    I have a 3 node cluster setup now and all looks to be working well! However, when I setup the last node, I typed the IP address wrong. I have a LAN network, SAN network, and a Cluster network. The cluster setup just fine because it uses an IP network different than the LAN. Now, I changed it in...

    Random cluster breakup

    Hey there, So I have a small cluster using Proxmox 5.1-52. Every 20 minutes or so the cluster drops. I see this in the cluster logs. Ideas? Both servers have bonded NIC in RR mode connected to meshed network switches. This problem never happened with PVE3, but now I'm seeing it. Is there some...

    Tighten up spam filtering

    How can I make the PMG even tighter? We seem to be getting more spam still slipping through the filter. I want it to be almost "too" tight. Is it possible I could send you my backup file so you can check our settings for validity? Thanks!

    Block spam level

    There is a rule to block spam at level 10; however anything with a value higher than 10 is getting quarantined. Is this a bug? Shouldnt it expect to block anything higher than 10, and not just equal to 10? Thanks.

    iSCSI read only?

    So, PVE 3.4 iscsi = zero problems! I installed a new PVE 4.4, and setup iscsi the way I always do, but now when I try to setup a new VM, I get read only file systems, and basically can't write to iscsi. Anyone else experience this? Ideas? Thanks!

    Dirty Cluster!

    Hello PM community! I fear I have created quite a doozy for my cluster. For months, cluster was operating just fine. I have high end switches meshed between dedicated interfaces for the LAN and SAN of my virtual cluster. The other day I went to remove a node from the cluster. I followed...

    SNMP

    Here's a good one for you ... I was trying to install SNMP on my PVE host. I used "apt-get update", "apt-get install snmpd" and "apt-get --configure -a" to install SNMP (hopefully cleanly on my host). During the process the pvestatd and pve-cluster became offline, and now I get this error when...
