    OVS: Native VLAN for Console - Tag VLAN for VMs

    Getting very confused reading through so many OVS explanations and examples, most with complexities i don't need and none of which clearly answer my questions. Question 1 I have eth0 NIC connected to a line giving me a native VLAN (10.1.1.0/24) and a tagged (tag=2) VLAN (172.17.0.0/16). No...

    Problem with dist-upgrad

    I have a development proxmox box (non-susbscription) on which i ran apt-get udate && apt-get dist-upgrade. However after the reboot the gui is still 4.2 and not all packages upgraded. I did have some issues with this box in the past since this is the one we use to play with and break. Should...

    OpenvSwitch Failing VE4.4

    Upgraded to VE 4.4 with subscription. System was working fine before. Now openvswitch is failing. 1. vmbr0 is popping in and out of "promiscuous mode" (as seen in /var/log/syslog) causing intermittent connection to console and web gui. I can only get to it now from server's KVM. Reply from...

    Restore Time Very Long 2.3-13

    I noticed a couple of times now that restoring a vm in 2.3 takes a very long time, much longer than previous version. Restore time for a Win2003 with 2 HD's (32Gb & 50Gb) took 12 hours. Has anyone else experienced this? I AM glad for the new backup/restore systems because now the restores...

    Upgrading Root disk on Dual Disk System

    This is a continuation of the thread on restoring backups of vm's with large multiple disks. I believe the cause of the "tar: write error" was due to the system root disk being smaller than the vm disks being restored (restored to the 2nd "image" disk - very large). Our server with Proxmox...
