Hello, Is Veeam restore working for you with PVE plugin v12.1.5.17 either with PVE9 or PVE8.x? Recently Veeam has published PVE plugin v12.1.5.17 which should support PVE9 [1]. Tried using it to restore some backups made from ESXi but after selecting the destination storage and disk format I...

Looking for some clues about this or if someone else has seen this happening too (it's been a first for me and I do have thousand of VMs). Using PVE8.4.5. Have a VM with Windows 2019 with virtio drivers 0.1.271, running fine for a couple of weeks since the last reboot. This morning all of a...

Hello, <TLDR> Seems that PVE or LXC or even Ceph change ext4's mmp_update_interval dynamically. Why, when and how it does? </TLDR> Full detailes below: In a PVE8.1 cluster with Ceph 18.2.1 storage, had a situation yesterday where a privileged LXC (id 200) with a 4'2TB ext4 disk as mp0 somehow...

Hello, PVE8.4.1 cluster + Ceph Squid 19.2.1. I'm doing some hardware replacement to remove old nodes and adding new ones, so I added some of the new nodes to the cluster. Once in the cluster, from the webUI I deployed Ceph packages on 4 of the new nodes. Everything seems ok, but the symlink at...

I have a PVE cluster (v8.1.4) doing backups to a PBS server. The backups are done every 3 hours with a */3:11 schedule. On PBS (v3.2-2), I have a prune policy setting like this: keep-daily 30 keep-hourly 24 keep-last 3 keep-monthly 12 keep-weekly 4...

TLDR; Is it possible to increase the timeout in PVE when listing PBS backups? Seems to timeout at ~25 seconds and there is no way to get the list of backups to do a restore, neither from the storage view nor within the VM it self. Is there a way to really tell ZFS to always keep metadata in...

Hi! Trying to script a few things, but I'm unable to use proxmox-backup-client garbage-collect unless the user has full "Admin" rights in PBS. Why it doesn't work just with "DatastoreAdmin" rights? Thanks!

I've already updated some clusters and single node PVE to 8.2 + kernel 6.8.x (9 systems in total, 5 different hardware configs). Only one of those systems changed the nic name. It was the first I tried in the lab and changed from eno1 to eno1np0. I currently check why the kernel gives some name...

How can I delete a namespace and all it's content from CLI? If I try with proxmox-backup-client namespace delete NAMESPACE and the namespace has backups, I get a message: Error: only partially deleted due to existing groups but `delete-groups` not true I know the checkbox in the UI "delete...

I've had an issue with one VM when trying to connect to it's SPICE console, complaining about an expired certificate. This is odd as I'm using the self generated certificates for this cluster: (remote-viewer:57402): Spice-WARNING **: 10:05:14.912: ssl_verify.c:479:openssl_verify: Error in...

Hello, If I'm not mistaken, bridge-vids sets "the space separated list of VLANs to be allowed tagged ingress/egress on this interface" [1]. So, if I set a bridge vmbr0002 with bridge-vids 2-512, and connect some VMs to it but with a vlan id>512, the VMs network traffic should not get into the...

I've just noticed that Linux VMs get less usable memory than that configured in the VM. For example, for a VM with 512MiB, top/htop/free shows just 466MiB (lost aprox 9%). For a 4GiB VM, only 3915.3MiB is available to the OS (lost 2.1%). A 128MiB VM will lose like 23% and give just 98.3MiB for...

Hello, I have backup of a LXC container. When doing a file restore from PVE7.4 of a directory that contains symlinks, those symlinks are not included in the .zip file that is downloaded from the webUI. The symlinks are shown in the file browser of the webUI. Also, a full restore of that...

Hello, I usually install PBS on top of PVE using the package repositories. Fist setup the no subscription repos and install the packages, then add subscription either via cli or webUI and then enable the enterprise repo. Is there any way to install PBS directly using the enterprise repository...

Hello, I had a problem yesterday with a cluster node which had its ZFS root disk filled with a bunch of snapshots and the rpool ended up being 100% full. It was monitored but it just happend so fast we couldn't react on time. The VMs residing in that storage became unresponsive. Other VMs...

I can edit /etc/vzdump.conf and add a custom notes-template, say: notes-template: {{vmid}}-{{guestname}} ({{node}}-{{cluster}}) Then if I try to backup a VM, the notes-template value is applied. But if I add a new backup job at datacenter level the notes-template is not applied. In fact, no...

Hello, With version 2.2.4-1, the metrics server feature was introduced. Is there any oficial Grafana dashboard to present that data. Thanks!

Hi, I'm trying to find out how does PBS get the value of the total capacity of a dataset stored in a ZFS dataset. I'm seeing this: Both datastores are created on a different dataset each, both in the same ZFS pool. Neither has quota. Datastore "VMs" got created first has almost all the zpool...

I have a PBS on which there's a sync task running and I would like to stop it, but PBS just does nothing when I try to stop it and the task keeps running. The sync is local in the same server, as part of moving data to another datastore/zfs dataset. The disk are all HDD without any vDev. The...

Hello, We have inherited a PBS server which is storing it's backups in a few datastores. All the datastores are in the same ZFS dataset. Dataset is a raidz1 with around 31TB of storage on HDD. No special device, SLOG or L2arc. atime is off for the pool and the dataset. Everything seems to...
