    Moving Large Directory Between ZFS Datasets – Safe Strategy

    Yup, decided to test this myself, and I can confirm: - created new CT 404 with additional non-rootfs mount - it automatically created /zbiornik-alpha/subvol-404-disk-0 - i started it, created some files - i stopped the container - run zfs rename zbiornik-alpha/subvol-404-disk-0...

    Moving Large Directory Between ZFS Datasets – Safe Strategy

    Thanks! After zfs rename such dataset will no longer be managed by Proxmox GUI? I worry about situations like for example: I detach subvol-100-disk-0 from LXC 100 and then rename into it my-dataset, and sometime in the future, I'll remove LXC 100, then create a new one with same ID, it won't...

    Moving Large Directory Between ZFS Datasets – Safe Strategy

    I don't get what you mean. I didn't post 2 methods, I posted 2 possible outcomes of the `mv` command and I'm wondering which is the correct one. But your clone suggestion got me thinking, what if I do a snapshot, clone it as shared-nas, then promote it and delete the subvol-100-disk-0? Will...

    Moving Large Directory Between ZFS Datasets – Safe Strategy

    Hmm, not sure how this would help me. I understand, that I would need to - snapshot the subvol-100-disk-0 - clone it - mount the clone in e.g. /mnt/clone - and then mv /mnt/clone/* /zbiornik-alpha/shared-nas/ How does this change the situation? I'm still moving across datasets, am I not? It's...

    Moving Large Directory Between ZFS Datasets – Safe Strategy

    Hi all, I have an LXC container on Proxmox that stores ~9.7TB of data under /zbiornik-alpha/subvol-100-disk-0/nas. This is a ZFS dataset with refquota=15T, and it's about 70% full. I’d like to move /nas into a separate ZFS dataset (/zbiornik-alpha/shared-nas) so it can be mounted into multiple...

    [SOLVED] Auto-Login for Root on Local TTY or Password-Free Access

    and it doesn't say why is it not possible? again - it should tell you why. My bet is that you need to create the directory fist, i.e.: mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/getty@.service.d

    [SOLVED] Auto-Login for Root on Local TTY or Password-Free Access

    What is this "weird" reason? Maybe you don't have the /etc/systemd/system/getty@.service.d/ directory, you need to create it first. So you're modifying the main systemd file. It might (and will) be overridden by system upgrade. The "drop-in" files (i.e. files placed in the "*.d" directories)...

    [SOLVED] Auto-Login for Root on Local TTY or Password-Free Access

    Huh, you effectively prevented yourself from local login, not sure if that's what you want to do. If you even lose SSH access, you'll probably need to restart into some single-user mode to fix this.

    [SOLVED] Auto-Login for Root on Local TTY or Password-Free Access

    Well, if it prompts for the password it does not work :) You need to create a file that I mentioned above (/etc/systemd/system/getty@.service.d/autologin.conf) with the following content: [Service] ExecStart= ExecStart=-/sbin/agetty --noclear --autologin root %I $TERM You can add commands to...

    OMV VM - best practice to handle drives (OpenMediaVault)

    I understand that option C makes backups to PBS extremely trivial, right? How much storage space would be lost to the ZFS overhead?

    Backup from PBS to PVE - Pull

    I understand, that in this scenario, the PBS can prone old ones? Ok, so basically, assuming that PBS is not compromised and it keeps last N snapshots, I don't need the PBS-in-the-middle to keep things secure. I guess that solves the issue. Thanks!

    Backup from PBS to PVE - Pull

    I believe that would defeat the purpose - the PVE in this scenario would need to have access to PBS host, thus exposing us at risk of encryption trojans Is it possible to have the following setup: - First PBS, running on PVE in a VM/LXC keeps only the latest backup - Second PBS, running on...

    VLAN issues - periodic network drops

    Here's my network overview: The VLAN 100 comes to physical eno1 port, trunk comes to eno2. Example VM is configured like this: Now, the problem is that I'm seeing constant network drops with periodic spikes. Here's is the view from the VM: The "drop" to 1.000 is a moment when I...

    [SOLVED] Wake-on-lan - doesn't work on Proxmox (Atheros Killer E2400)

    Indeed it did cross my mind, but that would require hooking up 2 ethernet cables, so I'll go with a smart socket. Thank you for the input :)

    [SOLVED] Wake-on-lan - doesn't work on Proxmox (Atheros Killer E2400)

    It appears that Atheros Killer driver has a bug and WOL was disabled for it a while back. Some insights: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61651 There's a patch, originally prepared for Ubuntu: https://github.com/AndiWeiss/alx-wol However, correct me if I'm wrong, but even if I...

    [SOLVED] Auto-Login for Root on Local TTY or Password-Free Access

    Yep, the systemd drop-in unit (followed by systemctl daemon-reload) did the trick: # cat /etc/systemd/system/getty@.service.d/autologin.conf [Service] ExecStart= ExecStart=-/sbin/agetty --noclear --autologin root %I $TERM The original unit has ExecStart=-/sbin/agetty -o '-p -- \\u' --noclear...

    [SOLVED] Wake-on-lan - doesn't work on Proxmox (Atheros Killer E2400)

    I repurposed my old gaming rig into a PVE host, it's equipped with Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming K4 motherboard that comes with Qualcomm Atheros Killer E2400 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 10). Back, when this host had Windows 7 installed, I was able to configure the Wake-on-lan in NIC's settings to...

    [SOLVED] Auto-Login for Root on Local TTY or Password-Free Access

    Hello! I'm looking for a way to enable root auto-login or bypass the password prompt, but only for local TTY (physical monitor and keyboard). It's important that full PAM authentication remains for web GUI and remote access. Anybody knows the elegant way to achieve this?

    [SOLVED] Fine-tuning user permissions

    Hello! I'm looking for neat way, to allow given user/token to perform only one particular action: to shutdown a node and shutdown/start a VM. The only way I came up with, it using SSH and adding a command-specific SSH key to the /root/.ssh/authorized_keys, something like command="shutdown"...

    NFS doesn't remount automatically after turn on or restart the NAS

    @limone - the umount does the trick, but I'm worried about running this in crontab. Sometimes while this issue is happening, the `ls /mn/pve` appears to take forever. Did you ever have any issues with this?
