Man we reviewed all security cameras on the DVR, alarm access, physical access is just not in the cards. IPMI is disabled in the BIOS. The only remote access to port 22 is from my office by IP, of which also was not accessed. But even then, would something like hdparm allow a operation on a...

Hey all, So this morning a client server running Proxmox wouldn't boot. I had him connect a monitor and on the screen we see "Enter user password." These are Micron 5300 SSD running in ZFS RAIDZ1. The server suffered a power failure this weekend, but then this? After quite a bit of research all...

Ah yes, fair enough. To be clear, the PVE in question is running limited hardware. I was hoping to achieve ZFS with only 1 VM on a 4GB, 128GB SSD RAID1 small server appliance. My apologies if I confused you with the CEPH reference! I may have it stabilized now with 512MB min and 1GB max RAM and...

Agree, but I dont like OPNsense or pfSense. :)

Im curious, doing it wrong? What do you mean? The cluster we're running is in CEPH. 3 x Intel Xeon with 32GB RAM just for our firewall. Differnet application; this our data center application. The question at hand was about ZFS. Isn't this what PVE is all about? Clustering Virtual Machines...

Correct, filesystem is not important. 99% of the operations run in RAM. The filesystem is locked and read only, except when making changes via web GUI, which doesnt happen often. Thanks for your reply, exactly what I was asking. I'll try to see how low I can go with ZFS on a test server first...

Thanks for the reply! Good point, and yes you wouldnt want swap on a mirror. Downtime is not acceptable, at least as much as we can control.

I will investigate this. I wanted ZFS due to the ease of failover and replacing disks. Its not IF they fail, its WHEN. I have experience with replacing disks in ZFS, so I figured since it's in the installer it would be more straight forward. I hadn't tried ZFS with a box with such low RAM, so...

Well, useless complexity to me equals automated hourly snapshots and nightly image backups of the VM. We have a 3 node cluster running CEPH with our firewall, for true HA failover in the event of hardware; that box has much more RAM and doesnt get this problem. Besides, thats boring. :)

I am being plagued by OOM. I know, I know, there are a million posts about this ... I just want to run something by the forums. I use a small mini appliance to run our firewall product. VM: Kerio Control with 1 GB RAM. HOST: 4 GB RAM, 2 x 128 GB SSD on ZFS RAID 1. Questions, ZFS says it...

I thought so too, but it completes the update and says nothing to do! haha ... I'm using these as my repo: deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster main contrib deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib # PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com, # NOT...

I am currently using vzdump to backup via NFS to a second PVE host. Then with scripting restoring the backup archive and starting to verify boot on VMs. Can this be used in a similar fashion to not only backup the VM but also run it? Can the PVE Backup Server also be used as a disaster...

" Q: How does this integrate into Proxmox VE? A: Just add your Proxmox Backup Server storage as new storage backup target to your Proxmox VE. Make sure that you have at least pve-manager 6.2-9 installed." How do I get to 6.2-9? I just installed a fresh ISO and it only goes to 6.2-4?

Cleared cache and still doesn't work on Safari. But no worries, really not a problem, I can use Chrome when installing machines. Once they are up I use SSH or RDP. I'll keep an eye on out on new versions. Thanks for the reply @Moayad !

Ugh. Chrome works! haha GTK, but any fix for Safari? If not, not end of the world, just thought I would share. I should have thought of that too. :rolleyes:

First time setting up Proxmox v6 and i get this VNC error. Ideas?

Hey there, thanks to @Moayad for pointing me in this direction I got it to work! You can make screendump with API CLI [0], also you can write an bash script to do that. Example: # pvesh create /nodes/{node}/qemu/{vmid}/monitor --command "screendump /tmp/test" # display /tmp/test

You sir are a life saver, thanks for pointing me in that direction!

Has anyone been able to figure out how to pipe commands into the qm monitor? I have a project and the ability to grab a screenshot is necessary! Tried using SOCAT, but I'm not familiar with how it works, or if it even does. This is a new install of PVE 5.4. Thanks in advance!

Bump: curious if anyone got this to work? I'm also trying to do something of the sort. I'm trying to script this: use qm monitor to use screen dump to capture the console to a PNG. I've tried: qm monitor 100 << screendump /root/100p.png qm monitor 100 >> screendump /root/100p.png qm monitor...
