thanks, it worthy of further investigation. I will investigate further. I did finally happen to locate a backup of one of the VM's, i was stored offsite and will take some time to download. oh yes, backups are your friend, and I am generally very good about that. thanks for the link

I have a pair of 4 tb drives, and want to partion it into 2 2 tb partitions, for the pve environment. Is that an acceptable solution/use of the drive, as I would like to use 2 tb of the drive just for storage, maybe backups.

It seems some how I have lost a logical volume, well actually the logical volume has a "whack" of missing directories etc. It is the pve-data volumes, it held the 2 vms on the pve. Is there any way of recovering or fixing. Sadly, I am not well versed in lvm2 usage etc. thank you for your time

ah shit, as I thought about it, I humbled myself, it is the xxxword I assigned on installation thanks for replying

As it succinctly states. I have booted up an already configured PVE, and selected the rescue option from the "boot usb", I don't have info on what the default login credentials. as I need to fix the grub loader. thank you

correct, easily fixe, I wonder what I was thinking when I created that mount point. thank you.

I have been seeing this in the logs on the proxmox host ( which I call pve-backup). It is a simple setup with 1 vm, here is the relevant info. first the error message Oct 08 21:18:50 pve-backup pvestatd[1409]: 5:185m5:185munable to activate storage 'data1' - directory is expected to be a mount...

thank you

What would be the reversal of a "qm set ......." of a hard disk ( pci pass through) ?

addendum, yes, that was the issue. problem/query solved. now, trying to figure out how that entry was placed there.

resolve , as meaning /dev/sda1 would be / and /dev/sda5 become the swap partition.

I recently noticed the / partition being labelled /dev/sdb1, and I think I figured it out. for some reason I have an entry in fstab. If I simply remove the line refencing sdb , would that resolve the issue ? cat /etc/fstab # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'blkid' to...

correct, I hadn't thought it through. backup via the management gui, and then delete the VM's. thanks

I have a few vms I don't think I need, however, I want to have a copy , just in case, so how can I copy vm-124 vm & vm-126 to another attached disk on the pve , before I remove them from gui ? 102 & 175 are being used, thus needed. lvs /dev/sdf: open failed: No medium found /dev/sdg: open...

I have figured it out, from the gui, I go to the listed storage devices, and it showed up in there , and was able to delete it.

I had deleted a vm via the gui console ( vmid 104), however from the command line it still appears, and If I tryto add anew vm, there isn't enough disk. any ideas ? and yes I want to delete the vm 104. thank you root@pve:/# qm list VMID NAME STATUS MEM(MB)...

proxmox 6.4 is considered old now, ok there is a reason the centos has to be version 6, I m well aware of its age

I have a proxmox 6.4-12 host, and several vms. I can do the hard disk passthrough wit the other vms, ( current debian) but unable to on a centos6 vm, any ideas why ? I get the following error. mount /dev/sdb /tempz mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb, missing...

update the down grade of qemu to 6.0.0-4 did not improvethe system, as it froze again, the only improvement is, it took longer to do so. back to the drawing board or pve 6.4

update, so far so good. in the last few days, the transfer would not have lasted this long, appears to be good. will test with another large file(s) and update later.
