    Default SSH key for created CTs

    yes, exactly, it requires updating every script :-). I'm surprised nobody has asked for this before as it seems such a simple and obvious use-case?

    Default SSH key for created CTs

    at the moment the SSH key needs to be specified whenever it is referenced, which means every _use_ of `pct` to create a CT, for example, requires changing. If Proxmox would allow me, at any point, to upload and persist a "default" SSH key, then whenever `pct` is used to create a CT it can...

    Default SSH key for created CTs

    I appreciate you don't maintain the community scripts - I'm asking about functionality within core Proxmox ;-).

    Default SSH key for created CTs

    thanks @cheiss. Do you envisage Proxmox supporting a "default SSH key to be added to CTs" which is then honoured by `pct`? If not, can I ask please, please, pretty, pretty, please, please :-)

    Sanity check - clone offsite or duplicate backup?

    My current thinking is (wrt to the infamous 3-2-1): - I've fat fingered a CT/VM: PBS for hourly/daily backups stored locally - the dog peed on the server and fused the drives: separate PBS backups to another server in my (garden) office - my house and garden office get destroyed...

    Default SSH key for created CTs

    Hi, is there a way I can automatically add an SSH public key to any created CTs? At the moment I am manually uploading my key when I create the CT but this doesn't work when I use the excellent community scripts?

    Concurrent backups

    thanks all - that sounds great.

    Sanity check - clone offsite or duplicate backup?

    the point about bugs is simply that bugs happen, and the more you replicate the more the window of opportunity for that bug to propagate. Three separate backups _might_ be better than one backup replicated two times. Then again, it might not. I'm just interested in what people are doing :-) I'm...

    PBS as a hosted service

    Hi all, It would be great if there was a somewhat "authoritative" source of hosted PBSs. If there isn't already one, can we add replies to this please. I've found: - https://remote-backups.com/ (free 100GB, EUR10.00 per TB) - https://portal.tuxis.cloud/pbs (free 150GB, EUR19.84 per TB) and...

    Sanity check - clone offsite or duplicate backup?

    Hi, I have a local PBS server (in a CT on Proxmox) and an offsite one. If I merely "sync" them then any bug in the onsite PBS is replicated to the offsite one and I've lost the resilience of the 3-2-1 strategy. OTOH, backing up separately to the local one and remote one seems really inefficient...

    Concurrent backups

    I'm assuming yes, but just checking - PBS does "the right thing" if a CT/VM is included in multiple *overlapping* backup schedules? Including if they have different backup strategies? For example, assume I have CM/VM1 configured in an hourly *snapshot* schedule and a midnight *shutdown*...

    Preconfigured installation packs?

    ...maybe... I've hard some negative things about Turnkey containers not being maintained which *might be FUD!*. If not, I guess I'm suggesting an installation with a bunch of those containers pre-installed.

    Preconfigured installation packs?

    Just musing out loud, but I'm sure there is a market for a set of OOTB Proxmox configurations. A "small office" set up with Nextcloud, email (Proxmox Email obviously ;-)), Samba, networking software, Zabbix etc. A "home server" one with Nextcloud, bookmarking, Zabbix etc. (Yes, these are really...

    Monitoring proxmox and hardware?

    the irony of me coming in this morning to set up monitoring on Proxmox and discovering that Proxmox has disappeared from the network at some point in the past few days....

    Monitoring proxmox and hardware?

    Hi all, how are you monitoring/alerting key metrics like: - hardware issues - disk utilisation - ZFS issues (integrity etc.) - SMART errors - network issues Primarily for the proxmox hosts but also the VMs? I've used Zabbix and Nagios years ago - are they still "the cool kidz on the streetz"?

    Proxmox 8 - web UI works for a bit then hangs on connection until reboot

    Alas, I spoke to soon. I came back in this morning and no external SSH or HTTPS to the host, but containers are working fine?! `/etc/network/interfaces` is attached (I can't copy/paste from Parallels - sigh)

    Proxmox 8 - web UI works for a bit then hangs on connection until reboot

    So I removed the SDN and changed to a more "traditional" bridge (static IP on NIC and private bridge with masquerading) and everything is working again and no timeouts so far....

    Proxmox 8 - web UI works for a bit then hangs on connection until reboot

    thanks @bbgeek17. I can no longer access the server from ssh or https from outside, but if I log in to the host directly then `curl -k ....:8006` returns the expected page.

    Proxmox 8 - web UI works for a bit then hangs on connection until reboot

    Hi all. I'm getting a weird issue with connecting to the Proxmox Web UI. Everything works, containers work and are publicly accessible (tailscale), the host works and can ping the world, but eventually (within minutes/hours) the main web UI just stops. Connecting to it just hangs (i.e. it never...

    backup hooks on a cluster backing up to NAS

    Howdy, I have a script which offsites the backups of a single host and is integrated using the hooks.pl approach. Now I am moving to a cluster (of 3 nodes), and the backup storage is shared (NAS), I can't quite figure out to get the backup process to call my script on the relevant hooks. I...
