    I want to move my PVE host to a larger disk. I did this process in the past without any problems (actually I have even restored to a smaller drive with some trial and error) but now it fails. - I have created a Clonezilla full disk backup on my NAS - when trying to restore the Clonezilla image I...

    Trying to back up VM to a share hosted by it

    I have just installed PBS and trying to figure out how it works. Mostly its ok, but there is one thing i'd like to solve: my PBS datastore used a NFS share mounted via fstab. The share is provided by a VM and the actual data is stored on disks on a passed-trough RAID controller. When I try to...

    [SOLVED] Force discard on VM disk

    i have reorganized the content of my VM and moved some data to a separate virtual disk to have more flexibility if i ever need to increase the disk size, not touching the OS partition. now the original virtual disk has a lot of free space, but the VM still takes up ~130 GB on the local-lvm...

    [SOLVED] One of my nodes can't access NFS share

    So, this is a strange issue, as I think shared storage is configured on datacenter level. Yet, on of my nodes can't access the share. I can manually mount the share with nfs vers=3 only, with vers=4 it gives an error. both nodes are on the same version. node pve-smc was restarted recently. I...

    [SOLVED] Proxmox <local> disk space

    I have noticed the free space on my local partition is decreasing significantly, while in theory there should be basically nothing on this partition except the proxmox system and a few iso images or lxc templates. i was trying to check with ncdu what's on the disk, but it shows only 8,4 GB is...

    [SOLVED] Huge I/O delays on backup/restore jobs

    I am running PVE with the config a single SSD contains the PVE root and lvm volumes for VMs. One VM is running OpenMediaVault and all the HDDs are passed trough to this VM. OMV is then providing NFS shares to other VMs as well as Proxmox itself for VM backups. Now my issue is, that everytime I...

The containers are up an running, but i am not able to forward some ports from this VM to the internet. the VM is also running a simple web server, that I can access from my local network without any issues on...
