    Try reinstalling and typing the following at the boot menu: linux ext4 maxroot=10 swapsize=20 http://www.jamescoyle.net/how-to/261-proxmox-advanced-install-settings You could also resize your existing partitions with something like gparted. http://gparted.sourceforge.net/download.php

    Proxmox glusterfs does not work with CentOS 6.4

    Try making sure both versions - the client and the server - are the same major (x.x) release. See http://www.jamescoyle.net/how-to/533-glusterfs-storage-mount-in-proxmox for mounting GlusterFS in Proxmox.

    Backup/ Restore failing

    OK, so I have tried this on another machine, however it has exactly the same components. So, it is a different machine, but each component is the same on both machines. There are no fancy storage controlers or NICs - they are just i7 consumer boxes. The same issue exists - I cannot restore...

    Backup/ Restore failing

    I tried it without compression and it works fine! So what is the issue with compression? I tried both compression types and both have the same issue.

    Backup/ Restore failing

    Hi Guys, I am having issues with the backup and restore functionality in Proxmox when working with VMs. I have a qcow2 single disk VM which is about 12 GB in use (actual space consumed on the host) of a possible 64GB. The guest is Windows Server 2008 R2 with some extra 3rd party software...

    Influence guest from host

    Hi Guys, Thanks for the replys. I am going to take the route of using a NFS/ apache server to drive the scripts. A script on each guest will poll 'something' (NFS/ Apache/ etc.) and action as required. Just a note: We are not able to use a guest agent as the VM needs to be portable to other...

    Influence guest from host

    Hi guys, At a high level, I am trying to get my guest to execute a particular script. The catch, however, is that I want to issue this command from the host. Ideally, on my host I would like to say something like some-qemu-command runonguest vmid path/to/script but I fully expect this to be...

    Hostname not updating after re template

    I just tested this and got the same behaviour - I create a template by using the same command as you, then when I use that template in a new instance the hotname remains the same.

    Cant create containers

    Have you re-downloaded the templates to make sure that using fdisk didn't make a mess of them, if they are stored on the same disk?

    Proxmox Android client - UPDATE: Version BETA released

    Hi pi_anto, Yes, that's right - Samsung Galaxy Nexus. I am currently on 4.1.2 stock, soon to move to 4.2.0 when the OTA comes out. I also have a tablet on 4.0, but have not installed QuadProx yet... not sure if it's compatible. If it is, I'll get it running soon.

    Proxmox Android client - UPDATE: Version BETA released

    Hi Guys, I use this app constantly! It is very good for checking the status of your cluster, especially with the new widget. I'd say VNC is a low priority as you can simply ssh over VPN from your Android device - what would be very useful however is the ability to create new containers/ VMs...

    new VM can't boot from host cdrom

    Can you access this from the Proxmox host? As a workaround, rip the CD-ROM to an ISO and point the guest to it.

    Reverse Proxy Admin Console

    It would seem that due to the Java code which is executed on the client side, that some of the paths are not translated via the proxy. This means that some files are not loaded by the browser as they are pointing to the wrong URL. Can anyone confirm this, or have any idea of a work around? Has...

    Survey: Do you use KVM or OpenVZ, or both?

    90% CT, 10% VM. VMs are simply a 'plan b' when a container is not sufficient.

    CIFS mount issue - mount: unknown filesystem type 'cifs'

    Thanks Awesome, I did as you said on the host and installed Samba via aptitude. I also restarted the host, just in case. If I run modprobe cifs on the host, I don't get any output. mount seems to work too. If I run it on a guest I get 'FATAL: Module cifs not found.'. Do you have any other...
