    ESTALE: Stale file handle

    Remounting sometimes works on my PVE machine, but never on my PBS. My PVE is doing the remount by itself i think. My pbs doesn't. But thank you for the script, i will just do a reboot of my pbs in this script instead. This should always work, and i think it will solve it.

    [SOLVED] Proxmox VMs and everything else greyed out

    Are there any plans to fix this bug? Im having the same problem when one of my Backup-NAS is offline. Which is a normal case, because this NAS is only for weekly backups, and not intended to run all the time. It has an auto-shutdown and auto-wakeup powerplan for once in a week. Since we...

    Urbackup-client for physical PVE host itself?

    I think we are just talking about backing up the host itself (without VMs). At least thats how i meant my original topic. The VMs can be backed up with PBS anyway. I would backup /etc , and not single subdirectories in /etc. Otherwise you miss your cronjobs and maybe other things after you...

    Urbackup-client for physical PVE host itself?

    I didn't try. I decided to do a 1-time full backup of the OS-disk with Clonezilla, and use a script to backup /etc daily via cronjob.

    Backup the PBS (VM) itself?

    I found a much easier solution than having a second PBS. As Dunuin said above: Just use vzdump instead of pbs to backup pbs itself. And in case of disaster just restore the PBS VM first and then all others. Thats my current setup and i tested the restore-scenario, and it works fine.

    Backup the PBS (VM) itself?

    Well its a homelab, not a productive/company environment. The pbs has an NFS4 share mounted which is on a QNAP NAS.

    Backup the PBS (VM) itself?

    In my case im also running pbs as a VM on the same host as the other VMs. I think it does make sense in some scenarios. But correct me if im wrong. For example in mine: In my homelab i have only my Windows desktop and my physical host. The physical host is very powerful and has plenty of RAM...

    Urbackup-client for physical PVE host itself?

    In case it matters, here it says: https://www.urbackup.org/download.html#linux_all_binary Does this sound hostile to PVE?

    Urbackup-client for physical PVE host itself?

    Are there any caveats or dangers installing Urbackup-client on the physical PVE host itself, in order to backup up only its boot Disk regularly? We are running pve 7.4 on a single node with LVM on the hosts OS disk. No clustering or anything, its a small setup with 7 VMs. The main storage for...

    ESTALE: Stale file handle

    UPDATE: We just rebooted the server. The problem still persists. The error message in the GUI when trying to add the NFS share again, is: "create storage failed: mkdir /mnt/pve/vlnas1-nfsvol1/images: Read-only file system at /usr/share/perl5/PVE/Storage/Plugin.pm line 1374. (500)" Is there any...

    ESTALE: Stale file handle

    Im having the same problem. - Not with PBS, but with the PVE host itself which has mounted an NFS share of a QNAP NAS. One day my NAS seemed to hang/freeze and i needed to reboot it. Now i always had this STALE error, when i tried accessing files there. In the PVE GUI u cannot remount NFS...

    Migrating to proxmox, and converting huge 7 TB vmdk-Disk file (only Disk, no full VM)

    Ok, thanks for the hint. As of what i have read, the installer cannot make partitions, right? Means i cannot just make a smaller partition on the M.2 disk during installation, and later use the rest of it for other purposes right? Same for the SSD RAID i guess. If i choose ZFS RAID during...

    Migrating to proxmox, and converting huge 7 TB vmdk-Disk file (only Disk, no full VM)

    Hi! Im new to Proxmox. Because im working with Vmware a lot in my company, i have an ESXi/vSphere setup also for my homelab. My company "borrowed" a license for vSphere to me for a few years, because i was using it also for some tests and some development stuff for smaller projects. Though...
