We've been building our Proxmox clustered hypervisors in a high availability set up when it comes to networking. Our typical set up is as follows:
Cluster/Management Network: NIC1 & NIC2 LACP (Linux Bond) ==> SWITCH1 & SWITCH2
Public VLAN Network: NIC3 & NIC4 LACP (OVS Bond) ==> SWITCH1 &...
Thank you. Going to SATA instead seemed to help. Also had to find the right version of VirtIO drivers to use with 2012R2 which is version 0.1.189. Newer versions would not install the drivers properly.
We have a customer with an old Windows 2012R2 server that they wish to move off a VMWare provider to Proxmox. We do not have access to get a VMWare backup so I am using Disk2VHD to make a snapshot copy of the disk over the network, and then import it into Proxmox as a SCSI drive.
I am able to...
Dumb question as I have never ran into this issue before (thankfully), but today I started getting a bunch of notifications that VM's were down and the proxmox hypervisor had locked up. Thankfully, just a reboot of the hypervisor brought everything back online.
We have backups of all the VM's...
Actually, the product is software and you purchase your own hardware (through them). Their supported platforms are either Dell or Supermicro hardware https://www.blockbridge.com/platforms/ and then you license their software.
We purchased a couple systems through Blockbridge. They will spec out...
I tried setting the CPU type to Broadwell, stopping/starting the VM and then attempting to live migrate it. Unfortunately, the VM still locked up after the migration was complete.
I am still having issues with live migrating from a Dell PE640 to a Dell PE630. The reverse migration works just fine 630 > 640. So if this still an issue and how can it be worked around? I don't see any resolution in the bug reports. I did check the time on all servers in the cluster and they...
@dignus We have been a Blockbridge customer for just about a year now and are in the process of installing our second set of storage units in another datacenter. So far things have worked flawlessly. The folks at Blockbridge are great to work with in terms getting setup and long term support...
I have a clustered pair of version 5 PMG's that up for license renewal. I've been debating whether it would be easier to update the version 5 servers to 7 using the existing licenses and also keeping live traffic running through them or if I should just purchase another set of licenses and start...
The problem was an orphaned multi-path device that likely occurred during volume deactivation. I've manually cleaned up the device paths, and the system is now operating normally.
I was in the process of migrating all VM's from a server running pve 7.1-11 to 7.1-12 so I could update it. It migrated several VM's and then stopped and the server turned to a grey question mark. It has been about a half hour and it doesn't appear like the migration is still progressing. All of...
I want to shutdown a shared NFS server that is setup in our PVE 6 cluster. I went to Datacenter -> Storage and Remove for the datastores that used that server. They all disappeared from the hosts in the GUI but when I do a df on the unix shell I see that NFS server is still mounted on all the...
I have been wanting to build PBS server but have a few questions. I have about 80 TB of VM's to backup.
I know SSD drives are the recommended drives to use in a PBS but SSD drives are extremely expensive at the moment. Does anyone have suggestions on good SSD drives for this type of use that...
We're evaluating different shared storage and we're contemplating using ceph. We've tried this in the past with a hyper- converged set up and it didn't go so well so we're wanting to build a separate ceph cluster to integrate with our proxmox cluster. We've read the benchmark document and have...
For a long time we've been using TrueNAS and Synology NASes as NFS storage for our PVE systems and just doing a a vzdump to them for backups.
We are interested in using PBS instead but I am curious if we can utilize our existing storage servers (TrueNAS/Synology) with PBS instead of building a...
Yes, this is still on my never ending To Do list. If you wouldn't mind sending me a private message, I would be interested to learn the backup provider you are using so I can give it a try.
Thanks,
Eric
The server is running sharepoint and some other web/database apps. I was thinking if I could get the system copied and running on proxmox and then re-sync the files / databases when it goes live.
Has anyone converted a Veeam backup to an image that can be imported into proxmox?
Eric
Unfortunately, I cannot take the server offline for an extended period of time so am hoping to do a live copy of some sort. Any one have experience with Veeam backup for doing this?
