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...

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...

I would like to convert a physical Windows 2012 R2 server to a KVM based VM. The difficult part is that the server is currently in a remote data center and I don't have local hands access to it. Therefore I need to be able to do a live copy over the internet to an image that I can be imported...

I am setting up a new node and have installed the valid subscription but when I try to do an apt update, I get enterprise.proxmox.com 144.217.225.162 connection timed out. Is the proxmox enterprise repository down? Guessing it might be related to the OVH data center fires yesterday in...

I have a newly setup proxmox server and I am having issues where the vzdump process locks up connecting to the NFS after about 2% of the backup is complete. At this point the VM is locked up and I cannot kill the vzdump process. An entire reboot of proxmox is necessary to bring things back...

We have a pair of PMG servers (Mail Gateway 5.2-7) in a clustered configuration and I've noticed over time in the disk utilization on the second node has been steadily increasing. The culprit seems to be the following directory. /var/spool/pmg/cluster du -hs * 11G 1 11G 2 The usage...

We are looking at recommendations for shared storage for a new Proxmox cluster. We are considering the following 2 options: 1) Using Ceph via Proxmox nodes 2) Using a NAS such as TrueNAS https://www.ixsystems.com/truenas/ using either ISCSI or NFS Can anyone share their recommendations and...

I have a customer with a legacy application that is still running on CentOS 5.11. I have recommended we clone the VM and bring it in-house on Proxmox and put it behind a firewall to better protect it since CentOS 5 updates ended years ago. I have managed to boot the Linode in rescue mode and...

I've been working on a project to migration some KVM VM's from SolusVM to Promox. My first two migrations I have been able to get them working. However, I just copied a third and for some reason the image is not showing any partitions. Here is the process I've been using. Take LVM snapshot of...

What is the proper format for the Spam Detector -> Quarantine -> Email 'From:' ? Would and entry as follows be correct? section: spamquar mailfrom 'Company Email Filter <admin@domain.com>' Also, is it possible to customize the email template for the Daily Spam Report? Thanks, Eric

I am looking at the Proxmox Mail Gateway for spam filtering and am unclear about the following functionality. 1) Can individual users (user@domain.com) manage their spam filtering settings at a user level in the Proxmox Mail Gateway or is this left up to an email administrator to do so only at...

We've been installing Proxmox V4 nodes with redundant Juniper EX4550 switches in a stacked configuration for some time with no issues at all. We generally setup each host as follows: bond0 (OVS Bond (vmbr1) - eth0 & eth1) - various VLAN's used for VM's public network access bond1 (Linux Bond -...

I have 2 independent proxmox 5.2 servers with VM's on them. I want to now cluster those 2 servers and a new 3rd one. Is there any problem with clustering the servers with VM's on them as long and the VM ID's are all unique? Best regards, Eric

I have a standalone Proxmox 4 host which has a hung backup process. I have tried killing the processes from the GUI with no luck and I have also tried killing it from the command line with kill -9 PID but they will not go away. 52700 root D ? 00:00:38 task...
