I had a crash on one of my servers - all VMs have been moved by HA to other servers However, they all have been moved to only 2 servers instead of being distributed evenly so I ended up with 2 extremely busy servers and 3 completely empty Question: what is the algorithm / criteria used...

Hi, I used to use Proxmox 2.2 ( just upgraded today to 3) I noticed that, in the 2.2 version, HA enabled VMs have their MAC showing on both the current and previous host Could someone please confirm whether: - "start at boot" should be set to "yes" for HA enabled VMs - the above behaviour has...

Have you found a solution ? I am running into similar problem ( i.e volume not available/active on the second server) Thanks Steven

here it is 1 Install necessary packages aptitude install libnss-ldapd libpam-radius-auth ldap-utils sudo 2. configure sudo - makesure it is working 3. configure LDAP /etc/nslcd.conf test using "getent passwd" - should return all users available on LDAP 4 configure PAM add to...

Hi, I found that Proxmox doesn't actually care how your PAM is setup - it will use whatever you have so , as long as your debian server is able to take advantage of Radius you will only need to add users to proxmox (pveum is your friend) If you think it will be useful to community, I can...

Hi, I am trying to configure a new proxmox cluster using few blades ( ProLiant BL460c G1) and a MSA2012sa SAS enclosure The volume I created is being "recognized" as /dev/cciss/c1do and respectively /dev/cciss/c1d1 Unfortunately I am unable to configure multipathing If anyone had a similar...

Hi, I am a happy Proxmox 2.1 user I needed to start a new cluster so I decided to use the NEWEST version ( see below) The problem is that none of my volumes from HP MSA2012sa are being recognized most likely because qla2xxx module is not loaded Even after loading it manually, a...

Hi, I am trying to configure a Proxmox cluster few HP BL465c G7 blades connected to a HP P2000 SAN However, it seems that the latest kernel ( 2.6.32-17-pve ) is not playing nicely with the Brocade card as there is no connectivity with the SAN ( port shows no_sync) Same hardware works fine...

Thanks Udo, I think the only difference between my settings and yours is the fact that I do not allow anonymous search Is there any way that we can "tell" proxmox to bind to the LDAP server using a username/password ? Steven

Hi, I am trying to add an LDAP authentication to my Proxmox cluster Ive added the realm and the user but I cannot login because "no entries returned" I've read some other posts and it seems that this will work ONLY if anonymous search are allowed on the LDAP server Could someone please...
