thx @Dunuin I was afraid someone would say that. But while we're at it... How would I do it right next time? Again, in my logic, the disk/volume lives on its own and must not die only because it happened to be connected to a VM/CT that got removed. I thought that was the whole meaning of...

Well, since I just unintentionally wiped/re-created virtual disks for a VM that I restored and lost valuable data this way, I must obviously vote this future request up!

Hi, first of all, thanks for providing such an amazing piece of software for free. I really enjoy running Proxmox in my homelab and would certainly chose it over TrueNas, OMV again! Now, there is one issue that I am worried about: Last night I had to restore an LXC container from backup...

After chewing on this for a moment, it dawned on me... I had IPv4 set to static BUT since I don't use IPv6 around here and I found now way to disable v6 for VMs/CTs, I just set it to DHCP. My DHCP however apparently does not hand out IPv6 addresses. So I could ping/ssh via IPv4 and eth0 was up...

Hi, thanks for the hint. Indeed your recommended log revealed something - even though I don't see how that makes sense. journalctl -f shows: Sep 09 15:13:02 ct-webmin systemd[1]: networking.service: start operation timed out. Terminating. Sep 09 15:13:02 ct-webmin systemd[1]...

Hi, I am witnessing an issue with LXC containers in PE 7.2 with different containers, based on different templates (Debian 11 and Ubuntu 22.04) and now even different nodes. When I set up a container and install Docker with Portainer or AdGuard (which then would be the only service for the...

Thank you all. I think I have a pretty good idea on how to proceed now. Marked the thread as solved.

Thanks @Dunuin that is also some really helpful advice! Sure. I'd use a regular 128GB SSD with a SATA-USB3-adapter for that. Oh, I didn't know of that. That's a great advantage. ✅ Unfortunately, with the planned setup I wouldn't find room for 3 SSDs on the same controller. But ZFS...

Thanks @LnxBil for your consideration! Well, if I were to mirror the two partitions, it would be limited to 1000GB minus whatever GB I snip off for the Proxmox boot partition, anyways. So I figured let's bring it to some good use. What to do with +/-20GB anyways? I'd rather keep the boot...

Hi, in my 2nd attempt to switch over to Proxmox from OMV, I want to move away from an ancient Dell Server with Xeon X3440 that is great for disk storage capacity but terrible on power consumption, noise and thermal exhaust. Therefore, I want to downsize my homelab server to an unused MacMini...

thank you, Dunuin! You put a lot of work into that and it's appreciated! => OK, been pushing the ZFS pool inside VM with dedicated 14 GB RAM today in and out but in never climbed beyond 5-6 GB RAM used. OF course, the more the merrier but unfortunately the server would not take more than 16 GB...

Thank you. Indeed, the server has only 1 CPU with 4 cores. I just copy-pasted what PVE summary publishes about the node. I guess it's not a big deal, so I would probably not try and force PVE to correct that. The SAS card is "upgraded" to LSI 8211-i8 in IT mode with FW P20 but thanks for the...

Hi, I'm fairly new to Proxmox and Linux, so please excuse my noobiness. Objective Trying to move away from a MacMini hosting SMB shares (the crooked Apple way), TimeMachines and running some Debian/Windows VMs via Virtualbox for Homelab stuff. Moving towards a "real" (home) server with Debian...
