    Proxmox cloud whmcs+ modulesgarden proxmox cloud and hostbill cloud

    I can't vouch for Hostbill because I've never used it, but I'm an avid user of WHMCS. From the client side, the Modules Gardens WHMCS Proxmox VE module is really great. It's easy to understand, intuitive, and it's high quality software. Also they really keep things up to date - as of today...

    How to configure actual mail server for PMG

    Ah man I would love a HOWTO for Virtualmin!? We have many Virtualmin clients who are complaining about spam, especially phishing. Virtualmin has SpamAssassin by default but ClamAV is a challenge with at least 2GB RAM just for that. Example phishing problem: SpamAssassin score = 2.7, need 5.0...

    Move Backup datastore from one ProxMox Backup Server to a new one

    Is there perhaps a step by step guide how to move backup from one PBS server to another? We have a lot of space on one server, and less space on another server. We want to try and load balance across the two by manually moving some VM backups from the one to the other. So far it seems...

    Change node in cluster's IP address PVE 7.4

    Thanks @Moayad Unfortunately I didn't see your reply and below is how I think I fixed the problem. Your technique is "change quorum to have one expected vote". It seems what I found what "make file system not read-only to affect changes". With regards to pvecm expected 1, is there something...

    Change node in cluster's IP address PVE 7.4

    I had to migrate one of the nodes of my four node cluster to another data centre. The IP address had to change. Now I've googled how to change the IP address of the node that is currently down but I'm struggling to find a HOWTO or concrete information that doesn't overlap or contradict. Are...

    > run PBS bare metal with local SSD storage on dedicated hardware and not virtualized on top of PVE Maybe you won't approve of my setup: - Virtualized NAS running TrueNAS - The NAS VM has directly connected drives via Proxmox and ZFS 3 drives - PBS VM connected to virtualized NAS Why? I...

    Access Proxmox Backup Server Sync Jobs on Another Server in the Cluster

    Thanks so much @ggoller ! Naively I thought that since I'm replicating VMs across to another host, I could use this method to restore the backup. I'm actually trying trying to solve this problem and will conduct more research and try more things: Geography A: PBS Server Geography B: PBS Server...

    Access Proxmox Backup Server Sync Jobs on Another Server in the Cluster

    My backup sync jobs are working 100% between two servers. However, when I browse the remote datastore linked PBS server in the cluster servers tree, I don't see the VM backups. Here is the tree view of my environment: I have a ton of backups on backup05, where I have a Sync Job from...

    [SOLVED] Backup to remote data centre that's part of the same PVE cluster

    Hi @Chris, I made some progress due to your on-point questions: Which leaves me with the question, is your VM actually running? The VM wasn't running. I've now instead chosen a running VM and backups are working! It took around 3 minutes to backup the 20 GB VM from the one data centre to the...

    Linux Cloud Images Freeze with Default SCSI Controller

    It took me a year to isolate this problem but finally by logging a ticket and double checking everything I finally notice this rookie mistake. The default for Hard Drive was set wrong! It's working now.
