    LinuxBridge with DHCP and defined address range

    Hello, I have configured a kind of network backbone for my 4 node cluster to enable a faster networking between all VMs. I was able to set this up via static ip addresses but this needs to be carefully configured to prevent ip conflicts. Here is what I have as an example for one node: The...

    USB Passthrough works only 1 time - then crash

    Hi, I have several proxmox nodes that are working well. I am using a Wifi USB Stick to temorary passthrough to defined VMs for installing updates over the internet. This concept works also quite well for me. However, lately I took an old Fujitsu Siemens Machine, also with Proxmox to be used...

    [SOLVED] PVE Shutdown/Reboot takes more than 10 minutes

    Not sure where to start. It runs on my new refurbed HPE DL380 Gen9. Hope you can help. Or maybe it is just normal on server HW? But from the outputs with these timeouts and watchdogs it is kind of strange. Thanks.

    Can't backup CT

    Hello, For no apparent reason, one of my CTs can no longer be backed up. I tried it on “local” and on a network drive. In both cases the same problem: The backup process gets stuck at the following step. creating vzdump archive '/var/lib/vz/dump/vzdump-lxc-1015-2024_02_04-20_25_30.tar.zst' All...

    Where are my VM backups gone?

    Hi, As described in an other post, I had a crash with my Proxmox server and several VMs. I still have a drive of one of my windows machines, which I used as CIFS/SMB share in Proxmox. There I created my Proxmox backups. Now I reinstalled Proxmox and mounted the CIFS share on the new setup but...

    Total Crash - How to rescue my VMs?

    Hi, While setting up my new/old server I have managed to crash my whole proxmox setup. I don't know why but I had the inglorious idea to setup the system disk as ZFS RAID0. While having HW troubles I had to reboot several times and I also had to kill the system in some cases. I don't know the...

    Win10 VM ramps up RAM usage until a cirtain point. (driver locked usage)

    Hi all, The problem is that after a fresh boot the Win10 loads and loads more RAM until about 98%. Then the system still runs stable but the VM is wasting huge RAM that I want to share with other VMS by ballooning. Here is my system: Proxmox VE 8.1.3 64GB RAM VM: Win 10 Enterprise 22H2 VirtIO...

    3 Node cluster - Icons disappear - Can't change VM settings

    Hi, Once again, it seems that I messed up something in my config. I had troubles in the past in getting instabilities with corosync/cluster config. One time I hade issues with a bad network cable and one time the ssh keys were out of sync. This time the problem seems to be different. I can...

    io-error - potential disk failing - how to identify

    Hi, I have a proxmox running with a WS2022 VM. This VM bundles multiple physical disks as a storage space. That runs quite well until now. I was getting the yellow sign with "io-error". Since I hear some strange noise from the disks I guess one of the disks fails but I am not sure which one...

    Cluster config - Stuck while join

    Hi all, I think the whole mess came up because I tried to setup a cluster between two different pve versions, but I am not sure about that. I managed to upgrade both machines to 7.4-16, but still the system seems to be messed up. The cluster join still fails. This is what I get: Cluster...

    WinXP + PCIe Passthrough

    Hi, I want to replace an old WinXP test machine with an Proxmox VM. The software is very specific and not compatible with any newer OS and there are several PCIe cards that are used. So Proxmox and a modern HW seemed to be a promissing solution for that problem. I was able to activate PCIe...
