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

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)...

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.

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...

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

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!

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...

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...

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 :)

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...

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...

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...

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?

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"...

@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?

I noticed, that LVM-think works way worse, than Directory storage + qcow2 files for VM disks. What FS for the Directory should I use for such approach? xfs, or ext4? it will only contain the qcow2 files...

Thanks, that helped a bit: With IO Thread disabled: Throughput: read, MiB/s: 26.73 written, MiB/s: 17.82 With IO Thread enabled: Throughput: read, MiB/s: 34.65 written, MiB/s: 23.10 Is this the best I can aim...

I cannot seem to change the SCSI Controller value from GUI and for Bus/Device I can only see: You're right. I wiped the disk, set up a Directory storage using ext4 and repeated the test: Throughput: read, MiB/s: 111.64 written, MiB/s: 74.43 Thus...

I should add that those drives are connected to the server via HPE Smart Array P420i controller, it has this little battery. I wonder how safe would it be to use "writeback" Cache mode

I'm not sure, I use GUI with following settings: ("fast" is the lvm-thin storage) The first one is ADATA SU630, the second one (the one that is bottlenecking) is Seagate IronWolf 125. I would expect it to have better performance than ADATA.
