    proxmox CA certificate expired

    I've been running a cluster for more than 10 years now. Yesterday I added a new node and deleted a old one. The new node's gui does not load because it can't generate certificates, and that is because the proxmox ca certificate has expired. I've tried running pvecm updatecerts -f, and have...

    pxar file browser

    Hi, Thanks for this product, its a big improvement over vzdump when it comes to saving space. I viewed the video posted to the top of the forum here, and he references a pxar file browser, where you can download individual files from the backup. I can't see this button available in my pbs web...

    Proxmox 5.1 upgrade problem - lvm-thin disappears

    When I upgraded from 4.4 to 5.1, I ran into a problem where the lvm-thin storage refused to start when the system was booting. I've forgotten the exact error code, but it was something along the lines of lvm2-activation.service error code 5. This of course caused quite a panic, even though I...

    Offline migration fails

    Offline migration fails for me when I try to move from a newer proxmox 4 install that has been upgraded to 5.1, to a older proxmox 5.1 install that started with proxmox 3. The storage involved is not marked shared, but the older server has local storage configured as true plain local storage...

    SOLVED: web interface - change bind ip?

    This was not the problem. It was bad browser cookies, I switched browsers and it worked. Chome was indicating that the server was not working. The thread below had the answer. Thanks! https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/new-install-broken-rsa_padding_check_pkcs1_type_1-block-type-is-not-01.16848/

    SOLVED - 4.3 - /dev/pve/data disappears after adding to cluster

    Adding back the local storage worked. Thanks! I updated the wiki page on clusters with a warning for the next person that runs into this.

    SOLVED: web interface - change bind ip?

    Is there any way to change what ip the proxmox web interface is binding to? I have multiple ips, some of which are not routable. Thanks!

    SOLVED - 4.3 - /dev/pve/data disappears after adding to cluster

    Looks like lvm-thin was not added until recently based on the wiki entry. My other nodes are 3.x nodes that have been upgraded to 4.3, and I have confused myself by comparing their configuration files to the new one. storage.cfg on the old nodes has the local storage set up like this: dir...

    SOLVED - 4.3 - /dev/pve/data disappears after adding to cluster

    I built a new server running 4.3 and added it to a existing 4.3 cluster. I had 1 kvm on the machine that I knew would not have any conflicts with existing IDs. I also had a dump of this in case anything went wrong. I used the --force option to force adding to the cluster, then rebooted. At...

    Nexenta/Illumos-based slow

    I dont know much about nexenta, but I do know that ZFS usually requires a lot of RAM to work well. I would allocate at least 8GB towards it, plus another 1GB for each TB of space.

    Good backup system for LXC / KVM Servers

    Rob- Yes, we have NFS available, so far we are just using rsync over SSH. The backups are timed so that they don't overlap too much. Backups are stored on a zfs system, so that provides some snapshot capability. rsnapshot looks pretty good - it uses rsync and stashes a few versions away...

    Good backup system for LXC / KVM Servers

    I'd be interested in hearing the details. Right now we just rsync proxmox's backup images, but that is probably not the most efficient way...

    Venom vulnerablity

    From my understanding, no proof of concept has been released yet that targets this particular problem, but I am sure people are working on it now that its been announced. Until then, it's all "theory". The risk is biggest for VPS providers. If I was one, I would be applying this ASAP...

    Import VMs

    Moving HDs is really a manual process. If your image location is on other physical drives from the proxmox install then: If these were members of a raid array, you need to set them up with the exact kind of controller you had on the old server. Once that is done, you need to mount the drives...

    Your pve is not the latest. Several packages are old. Can you update and try again?
