    [SOLVED] Can't install ProxMox 6.x inside Virtualbox

    Hi, I just wanted to quickly setup a small lab to testbed some ProxMox setup within Virtualbox but the installation keeps failing whatever the settings I try. I don't want to do something serious with this setup, this is just for test and demo purpose. Here is my setup : * Linux Ubuntu 19.10...

    Can't unmap images of cloned running VMs on KRBD

    Hi, I think I found a corner case. We have VMs running on Ceph in KRBD mode. I have a user who cloned such VM but in a living state, neither from a stopped VM nor a snapshot. I don't know why but it works except that when you want to remove the VM, when trying to remove the image, I get a sysfs...

    ProxMox 4 + Ceph Hammer : LXC on Ceph leads to bad i/o performances

    Hi, I had many KVMs running in Ceph with very good performances but I decided to give a try to LXC on Ceph in order to benefit for near bare metal performances and lighter overhead on ressources but I was soon disappointed on the disk i/o side. While in KVM (virtio-scsi + writeback cache mode)...

    Multi-datacenter ?

    Hi, Been using ProxMox for years and it is getting better and better but there is still no multi-datancenter capabilities and even though I would love to stick with ProxMox, I'm now in a situation where our infrastructure is getting bigger and bigger and too complex for one big ProxMox cluster...

    Can't remove VM template image completely with Ceph + KRBD

    Hi, Found a bug with PVE 4.4-13. When I convert a VM to a template that is stored on Ceph, a snapshot is created for my VM disks. When I want to destroy this template, I have a message in the console saying the image still has watchers so it can't be removed. Anyway, the VM IS removed in PVE...

    LXC Live Migration with CRIU

    Hi, I know LXC Live Migration is not supported by now and that it waits for the CRIU project but it seems that things are moving on the CRIU side, even Docker implements it now so is there any timeframe for a fully functionnal CRIU implementation in ProxMox ? Best regards.

    ProxMox 4.x is killing my SSDs

    Hi, Sorry for the provocative punchline but there is something really strange going on here ... I'm running ProxMox 4.3 but since my migration to ProxMox 4 (I was happily running a ProxMox 3 cluster before ...), I have a very weird (and dangerous) behaviour with ProxMox installed on SSDs. So...

    ProxMox 4.2 less stable than 3.4

    Hi, I was using ProxMox 3.4 on a 9 nodes cluster with Ceph quite nicely for more than a year and it was very stable. I reinstalled this cluster (and even added nodes) with ProxMox 4.2 updated to current release as of today and there is not a week without a kernel panic or down OSDs or Ceph...

    Can't use GlusterFS volume for LXC templates and isos from GUI

    Hi, It is not possible to download a container template to a GlusterFS volume even though this volume is marked as a storage for container templates. Uploading an iso file on the other hand is working. I get the error you can see on the screen capture. This is still possible to use this...

    GlusterFS volumes not unmounted when disabled or deleted

    Hi, Another nasty bug with storages, if I declare a glusterfs storage on my cluster, this storage is automatically mounted in /mnt/pve/<volume name> on every nodes which is great but ... when I disable or delete this volume, the volume stays mounted and I must unmount it by hand on every nodes...

    Can't remove image when migrated with CEPH + KRBD

    Hi, I just found a nasty bug when using ProxMox 4.2 in a clustered setup with Ceph and a KRBD configured storage. Using KRBD, a /dev/rbdxx entry is created on the server to gain access to the RBD image. When migrating a VM using such volume from server A to server B, the /dev/rbdxx device is...

    Default KVM hardware templates

    Hi, Is there a way to redefined the default hardware settings for a freshly created VM ? I mean, rght now, I create dozens of VMs but when I create new VM (and not clone an already existing one), I have to redefin my hardware settings (especially I replace IDE with virtio-scsi, use virtio for...

    pve-sheepdog zookeeper support.

    Hi, I see that latest pve-sheepdog installs zookeeper dependencies but I tried to configure Sheepdog to use Zookeeper instead of Corosync but it fails because Zookeeper's support is not compiled in pve-sheepdog. Starting Sheepdog Server : sheepdog-c zookeeper:node1:2181,node2:2181,node3:2181...

    Sheepdog 0.9

    Hi, I encountered recently a few problems with Sheepdog storage and snapshots. We use snapshots extensively and ProxMox uses it too for backup purpose which is great but Sheepdog 0.8.2 which is the latest release provided within pve-sheepdog is not very smart snapshot wise and it is keeping...

    How to add a service IP to a ProxMox 3 cluster ?

    Hi, I'm making some tests with ProxMox 3 clustering. I built a cluster with 3 nodes and created a shared GlusterFS volume as a shared storage which is working quite good. Clustering is working well and I can administer the whole cluster from any node but I'd rather use a service IP that would...
