    How to re-trigger symlink and related generated files? ceph/otherwise

    I have two nodes in a cluster which mount Ceph over the network, but that mounting is broken and I cannot remount as /etc/ceph/ does not have the symlink in it and the keyring file. A third node that is roughly configured the same was in the same state until it was rebooted. Ceph itself is ran...

    PBS Task history creating "bad" files at times

    I've recently had a need to copy off a PBS system the Task History Logs and a bunch of those Task History files have been created with "bad" naming conventions. This has caused me problems for syncing the files onto my nextCloud, and I'm sure you'll see the problem with this example...

    Proxmox VE Notifications ignoring /etc/hosts (kinda)

    Due to some intricacies of reverse-proxy stuff (which I'm really not going to go into for security reasons), I have added an entry to the /etc/hosts file for every node in a particular Proxmox VE cluster. This is so that the FQDN of the SMTP server I am sending notifications through resolves to...

    [Feature Request] Backup comments?

    Can we get the ability to add comments to a backup we create? I'd really like it if I could add something like "Before installing game server files" or whatever. Even if the backup gets deleted in backup cycling, that can be super handy. Please? :)

    Daily backup tasks spike Linux RAM cache, never gets freed up, pushes into swap

    I have 3x Proxmox VE nodes in a cluster, and the issue I'm about describe has been problematic for me for years now. I've been trying to find the "proper" solution to this problem, but alas, I find more criticism for the method I use than real solutions. A few years ago I learned about the...

    ZombieLand / RIDL / Fallout (CVE-2018-12126, CVE-2018-12130, CVE-2018-12127, CVE-2019-11091)

    Hey so ZombieLoad was announced today : https://www.zdnet.com/article/patch-status-for-the-new-mds-attacks-against-intel-cpus/ No, I'm talking about the new speculative CVEs, not the movie. What's the response from Proxmox devs as to when we can see patches for this?

    Former Cluster, just disappears

    I'm not sure when this happened, but recently when I check the "Cluster" section of my Datacentre, it says there's no cluster. Except, it has been a cluster for over 5 years now, currently with 5x nodes. The whole cluster is 5.3-11, and I have been maintaining and upgrading it since about 2.3...

    Open vSwitch - InfiniBand

    Can I use Open vSwitch to interface Virtual Machines with an InfiniBand network for the purpose of having the Virtual Machines talk between each other (on same/different cluster nodes) over the InfiniBand network? And/or other purposes too?

    [Feature Add] Timestamps in backups

    Hi Folks, One of my nodes fell on its face last night, and I am uncertain why exactly. But that's not what this is about. I was looking at the backup log, and it looks like it happened during then, as quorum was lost and the backups were unable to make the changes to old backup stuff as...

    Upgraded to 5.0, nodes seem to want to SWAP more

    Recently upgraded from 4.4 to 5.0-23/af4267bf, and now my nodes are putting more into SWAP than before, even though they're at about 50% RAM usage on each node. This is really annoying as this can lead to higher IO latency, and I periodically flush my SWAP back to RAM in times like this. Sure...

    SNMP indexing shifts on reboot (libreNMS)

    Hi Folks, This is an issue I've been having for months, and I am not entirely sure where the cause is, but it might be proxmox. I've been having it since 4.3, and it happened in 4.4, and is now happening in 5.0. I use LibreNMS to monitor many things, including a bunch of proxmox nodes, via...

    Hi Folks, I'm asking about this : https://arstechnica.com/security/2017/05/a-wormable-code-execution-bug-has-lurked-in-samba-for-7-years-patch-now/ I just saw that an update is available as of this writing, for samba stuff, are these updates to address this CVE? Or is that a WIP? Thanks,

    ZFS on proxmox could be better

    Hi Folks, First, I think ZFS being in proxmox now for a while is awesome. I love ZFS and really think it's one of the best filesystems out there. That being said, I've recently seen some important shortcomings with it's implementation in proxmox, and I really hope my concerns can get addressed...

    qemu-guest-agent documentation improvement

    Hi Folks! I'm just actually checking out the qemu-guest-agent for Linux stuff, and I noticed a few areas of the documentation that would benefit from clarity. I'm referring to : https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Qemu-guest-agent My thoughts: The page should mention the VM needs to be turned off...

    VM Import/Export feature

    I would really like to see Proxmox with VM Import/Export features. It would be nice to have support for various different VM packages so I can export product VMs to my clients, or import VM packages between other environments I work with. Also when making a new VM it would be nice to have the...

    [Bug] Starting VM in Datacenter webgui, still thinks it's off (kinda)

    This is a small GUI bug, and so far I've seen it happen in the Datacenter scope, but I'm not sure if it happens elsewhere. I right click on a VM that's off. It turns on, and works, just like one would expect. I stay in this scope, don't reload page, or whatever. The VM is on, but I right click...

    Multichannel SMB/NFS?

    Hi Folks, I suspect the devs might be able to better answer this, but here goes. What's the current state of Multichannel support for SMB/NFS in Proxmox VE? SMB 4.4 added an experimental version of SMB multichannel, but people have been reporting a good amount of success. NFS 4.1 added...

    [feature request] Check boxes for migration of VMs

    Hi Devs, I know that I can individually migrate VMs, and also select "migrate all VMs", but I would like a granular middle ground. There are VMs I don't want to migrate off hosts (such as offline ones), and stuff like that. What I was hoping was a way I can check a list of VMs I want to...

    FreeNAS/FreeBSD hot-plugging of disks not working
