Gotcha! Then it doesn't sound like there's a way to automate this w/o any manual intervention i.e. turning off one VM (or play around with qemu monitor) before a backup job starts, right?
Thanks, that makes a lot of sense! Do you know if there's a way to do a conditional passthrough at the KVM configuration?
$ cat /etc/pve/qemu-server/100.conf
...
hostpci1: 08:00.0,pcie=1
...
The issue is that I am unable to run a backup of a VM while another is running.
The VMs in question are (1) a Windows 10 VM and (2) an OS X VM. I am doing a PCIe passthrough of a GPU and USB controller to both, such that only of these two VMs can be run at one time.
While there is no issue...
Thank you, that makes sense. Do you by any chance if there is a way to conditionally passthough PCIe depending on whether a VM is cold-started or snapshotted (as in a backup)?
Hi,
I am running a PVE 6.3 server with several VMs with PCIe passthrough (GPU, USB, etc.). I'm using a hook script for a few of these VMs (as a hookscript: ... in /etc/pve/qemu-server/XXX.conf). I am also running regular backups (snapshot mode) of these VMs using PVE, but I would like the...
I figured it out, I simply made sure that ZFS pools are mounted before PVE storage runs.
$ cat /lib/systemd/system/pve-storage.target
After=zfs-mount.service
Hi,
I have a ZFS dataset intended for backing up QEMU and LXC images.
