Sorry for those who may have read this post just before I resolved my issue with VLANs... Its not irrelevant to the issue below. Hello, I changed the static IP of my PVE node by modifying /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf and AFAIK everything seems OK (I can now...

Long story short, I tried renaming the hostname of my PVE single host (no cluster) and it turned into a nightmare. If I'd knew I would have NEVER tried this... Please bear in mind "old" hostname was "proxmox" and new hostname is "srv-vir01" Basically I followed...

So I have a volume group (highperf) containing two logical volumes (lv1 and lv2) sitting on a RAID1 hardware array. Array size is 278.46GB as reported by the RAID controller and LSI.sh monitoring script: Virtual Drive: 1 (Target Id: 1) Name : RAID Level : Primary-1...

Hello, I am migrating from a virtualized pfsense router running as a KVM machine in PVE, to a hardware one, and so far, I managed to build the real one and its working fine. Next step is to reconfigure the networking stack in PVE node. I want the following setup, but somehow all I managed to...

Hello fellow PVE users. I am wondering if there is a way to throttle back CPU speed or set CPU power states to save energy in PVE? My PVE server has the following hardware config: Supermicro H8DCL-iF (dual socket C32 motherboard) 2x Opteron 4334 6 core CPU 4x8GB DDR3-1600 ECC RAM 4x Hitachi...

Hello, I started hardening my centos servers (running as KVM, not containers) by disabling SSH access for root, and creating a dummy user for SSH only which will be the only user that will be able to SSH. I did not create a home folder for this user thinking it would be more "secure". That...

Dear Proxmox users, I am investigating an issue with my internet connection where it seems to randomly drop for no apparent reasons, and comes back on its own after a few minutes. During that time, the local network seems to work fine, but nothing is going or coming from the outside...

Hello, I am running a Proxmox VE node for a SoHo application and I recently purchased a Smart UPS from APC (Model SMT750RM2U) which seems to use MODBUS (RS232) instead of the former simpler protocol. As a result, apcupsd that is available for proxmox (from repo: deb...

Hello I am currently using proxmox VE 3.3 to virtualize some machines on a SOHO server. While all is currently running OK, I am left with some problems that I have a hard time to solve. For example, one of the VM is a Centos server which basically runs everything. When something crashes...

Hello, I went ahead and manually ran a fetch for updates from the WebGUI and it quickly aborted saying starting apt-get update Hit http://security.debian.org wheezy/updates Release.gpg Hit http://security.debian.org wheezy/updates Release E: Release file for...

Hello my PVE node has decided to display "no content" and a blank page instead of the syslog messages that you usually can see under syslog tab of the WebGUI.. Not sure when this started to happen, but first time I saw this (about 2 weeks ago) at that time I thought that the syslog was...

Hello all, I am seeking advices from experienced proxmox users in regards to reconfiguring my proxmox node to be the most resilient possible. I am not looking to upgrade my hardware and I am not looking to cluster, I will continue to use a single standalone node. I am mainly interested in...

Hello, I was using my proxmox node and found my pfsense VM to be suspiciously slow / unresponsive, when I decided to look in PVE's syslog and saw these: Jun 3 22:58:08 proxmox pvestatd[3603]: VM 100 qmp command failed - VM 100 qmp command 'balloon' failed - got timeout Jun 3 22:58:08...

Hello Using proxmox 3.2-1/1933730b, I am trying to make a backup of a VM (KVM) using the local node's backup resource, and it fails every time with : ERROR: job failed with err -1 - Operation not permitted INFO: aborting backup job INFO: stopping kvm after backup task ERROR: Backup of...

Hello, so I have asked on another thread which is getting quite long, and got no reply. I need to make this work ASAP since my main production server is down due to maxed out storage inside a specific CentOS VM,.. Basically, I have added 3X 2TB drives in a RAID5 config to my node, and I...

Hello, PVE 3.2 is installed on our local server running dual socket Opteron 4334 on a Supermicro H8DCL-iF motherboard. VM #101 running CentOS 6.5 x86_64 displays strange messages right after GUI has loaded (or early after loading up the basic stuff) bmc-watchdog:2863 map pfn expected...

Hello, So following up my "debuts" with proxmox, I am now trying to grasp the concepts and storage model of PVE. First of all, I'd like to add a bunch of SATA drives (6 of them) that were previously assembled as a software RAID 5 array under Slackware Linux. I would like to reassemble them...

Hello ! First of all, let me congratulate the Proxmox dev team for the wonder that Proxmox is!! Unbelievable! After several weeks (months) searching for the ideal hypervisor for my home/small office server, I have decided to opt for Proxmox. So far things have been fairly smooth and easy...
