    Transferring boot copies to other NVMe disks

    Answering my on question (sort of!) the issue got solved partially at least but not sure how. Maybe rechecking the flags of the "clone" partitions on gdisk or after a reboot, suddenly allowed us to correctly use proxmox-boot-tool init and now the 3 partitions are correctly been updating when...

    Transferring boot copies to other NVMe disks

    Some additional clarifications to my previous question, which we still can't figure out. pve-manager/7.4-17/513c62be (running kernel: 5.15.143-1-pve) this is not a ZFS system as it was upgraded from previous installations, I guess will have to move to ZFS on next upgrade I've checked the...

    Transferring boot copies to other NVMe disks

    Hi, we are having issues with a local server running various NVMe drives and SSDs. The UEFI boot partitions were installed originally to the SSD drives that have been superseeded now by NVMe disks. We just realised that removing the SSD drive leaves the system unbootable as booting from any of...

    SOLVED - You have not turned on protection against thin pools running out of space.

    We use this command on a cron on the host to monitor the total real used space on the thin-pools pvesm status |grep lvmthin | awk ' $7 >=70 {print $1,$7}' Values over (>=70) are returned, "lvmthin" is the "type" reported by the command

    Recommended procedure to clone LVM thin qm disk

    We are trying to optimize a KVM qm VM by using two assigned thin provisioned disks, one of which we'll not be included in the regular backups so we can speed them up and reduce required space. For this to work we need the KVM to either be able to boot without it, as when we restore the backup...

    Trying to understand namespace and user permissions

    Noted then, thank you. From my point of view, considering the way ACL is built... root should have access to all namespaces. Not being the case I would suggest at least a feature to allow to "duplicate" an already defined storage so one can just add one per each namespace you want to have...

    Trying to understand namespace and user permissions

    Yes I assummed that "root" access to a storage implies inheriting all the bellow namespaces. Is this not the case? Is it configurable on the connection, ACL or storage definition? Thanks.

    Trying to understand namespace and user permissions

    Hi. New to PBS we are trying to configure a server that syncs backups from two others and retains them for long term. We have created two namespaces as production and staging on that server named "pve-archive" which is syncing correctly. We would now like to be able to access from one of those...

    Rootless Docker inside unprivileged LXC container

    Rootless docker causes us an additional limitation regarding having a full firewall working as we wanted. The docker0 network becomes unavailable to root, so we've stopped testing it under unprivileged LXC for the moment, so can not provide any other info, sorry.

    Debian 11 CT template errors

    Hi, we've been using our own template (users, signatures, webmin, etc) for new CT based on a previous Debian 8 which we've been updating to 11. In order to have a proper a minimal CT template we started to personalize it again based on PVE's official Debian 11 template since a few things might...

    Slim down Promxmox? Disable corosync, pve-ha services?

    Thanks that helps a lot. I have no intention of masking, as it might affect updates and that is why asking for some guidance about this. As for the firewall and login, I assume if it's not activated on the host or VMs it would not log anything anyway even if our firewall is using iptables. I...

    Slim down Promxmox? Disable corosync, pve-ha services?

    Thanks @t.lamprecht for the detailed response regarding logs. We will look into that and review. For the tmps option we've been considering log2ram or a safe way to limit the tmpfs for certain logs without a flooding risk which is our only concern. But back to the services you mention: So I...

    Slim down Promxmox? Disable corosync, pve-ha services?

    This has become a firewall discussion now, apparently. In our case I'll say we do use iptables, but rules are generated via CSF, including on the containers. In any case, I can imagine that the firewall service running would not likely affect performance, so not terrible concern with it. In any...

    Slim down Promxmox? Disable corosync, pve-ha services?

    I understand this thread is old but as it still a "gray" area in PVE7, may I suggest for an easy way or a wiki document explaining how to disable unneeded services in single server PVE installations. In our case with PVE 7 we've stopped and disabled systemctl stop pve-ha-lrm pve-ha-crm corosync...

    Rootless Docker inside unprivileged LXC container

    Hi, wondering if anyone had any luck with this setup or can point to an up-to-date guide to get ideally unprivileged and rootless docker. Alternatively, I'll just have to consider one or both or maintain our current docker on KVM if I can get a proper way to mount and share host directories. I...

    Proxmox and Netdata

    We use it too and yes... quite a bit of tweaking of its alerts is required.

    LVM thin oversized, trying to understand ideal discard and trim options

    Hi, after a long time and due to an increase in used size of our main thinpool we realised we were having an issue like these: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/lvm-horror-proxmox-reports-lvm-thin-full-when-actual-vm-disk-usage-low.108218/#post-464967...

    Docker LXC Unprivileged container on Proxmox 7 with ZFS

    Also very interested on this. We are running docker servers in VM as well as LXC on LVM with pve 6. We prefer lxc mainly for the bind mount options so unclear now if the new issues are due to pve7 or ZFS so it would be interesting to know before we upgrade. I understand the long reluctant...

    Thanks, although we believe it was within host limits, that seemed the issue.

    One Windows KVM shutdowns another

    We have a windows 10 server running on a KVM for a while over PVE 6.4-4 We were trying create an updated version with a different W10 version on a new KVM created from scratch. We installed all correctly but after a few days we suddenly noticed that when we boot one of both... the other kvm...
