In Proxmox 8.3 I created two VMs with Windows Server 2019 enabling "QEMU guest agent" in Options. In the VMs I installed QEMU guest agent (108.0.2) and set the related services to start automatically at boot. Every morning in these two VMs I find the "QEMU Guest Agent VSS Provider" service...

In a new installation of Proxmox 8.3 I created two VMs with Windows Server. Copying a few GB of files from one to the other, the copy process freeze. Then I noticed that sometimes even the Proxmox interface stops responding (moving in the menus I see the "Loading" message and then "communication...

I have Proxmox 8.3 on a HP Proliant server with RAM: 128GB and CPU: 48 x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2650 v4 @ 2.20GHz (2 Sockets) No matter how I tried to configure a VM with Windows 11, I always get an extremely slow machine. I use VirtIO drivers for disk (on local zfs filesystem), network and...

I just updated PVE 8 and after rebooting my two Windows VMs (Windows10 and Windows Server 2019) are stuck (it's been 30 minutes and I'm still waiting to see the login screen appear on the console ...). These are machines configured following best practices (VirtIO driver, host CPU, WriteBack...

I installed Zimbra mail server in a container where I added a second network interface with an IP in the management VLAN (192.168.10.0) and configured Zimbra to expose its administration interface on this subnet. ip route default via 192.168.10.1 dev eth1 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel...

I'm running proxmox-backup-client directly on Proxmox Backup Server to back up a NAS share mounted via CIFS. Everything works fine if I run proxmox-backup-client using root user (root@pam@localhost) but this forces me to have to store the root password in an environment variable (PBS_PASSWORD)...

If I use proxmox-backup-client to do a daily backup of a file, will I only have the latest version of the file in the datastore or is there a configuration that allows me to keep all versions of that file for the last week?

The iron has 3 NICs but after installation PBS shows 4 (!?!) This is what I see from PBS WebUI: And this is what I see from bash: ip -br a lo UNKNOWN 127.0.0.1/8 ::1/128 eno1 UP 192.168.10.102/24 ens259 DOWN eth2...

To backup a QNAP/Synology share I was thinking of mounting this share via NFS on PBS server and running proxmox-backup-client on this server... can this work? Or is it better to mount the share as a PVE storage and then run proxmox-backup-client from there?

I need to install PBS on a server with these 4 HDDs: 2TB, 2TB, 1TB, 500GB I plan to use 2x2TB in ZFS RAID1 as S.O. and VM datastore and I would like to have some suggestions on how to use the other disks (perhaps I could dedicate the 1TB one to archiving files sent by "proxmox-backup-client"?)...

What is the difference between these two VLANs? To create the management VLAN I found HowTo's that guide you to directly edit the "/etc/network/interfaces" file from the console. But, for Proxmox, what is the difference compared to creating a VLAN from WebUI? Thanks!

I'm new with VLAN and there is one thing I don't understand in the Proxmox documentation about creating the managment VLAN: Network Configuration - Proxmox VE From what I understand, the purpose of the management VLAN is to separate the subnet used to access the admin interface from the...

Can anyone give me some tips to optimize this setup? TIA

This morning I installed Proxmox 7 on a server that was previously running PVE 6.x. I removed the RAID controller hardware from the motherboard and then used ZFS (RAID 1) by installing everything from scratch. The installation was successful, but two problems emerged after the reboot: 1) After...

In my test environment I build a small PVE cluster: 2 nodes, both with 4 NICs connected to: NIC1: 192.168.1.0 LAN NIC2: 192.168.5.0 subnet dedicated to VMs backup traffic NIC3: 192.168.6.0 subnet dedicated to PVE VMs NFS storage (a NAS share) NIC4: 192.168.7.0 subnet dedicated to PVE cluster I...

My PVE server start faster than NAS used as remote storage, so VMs cannot start automaticaly. Is there a way to solve this? P.S.: I read some threads about this issue, one of this, dated 2016, with a smart (IMVHO) solution, but it seems to me that this feature is not available:

I have a 2 sever PVE cluster. Both have 3 NIC: eth0 for corosync, eth1 for VMs storage and for backup traffic and eth2 for LAN connection. I want to add one more NIC to separate storage and backup traffic but one server doesn't has an available PCI slot. So I'm planin to buy a new PCI with 2...
