for future readers.. PVE seems to have gotten stuck did a > shutdown -r now to restart the chassis then qm rescan --vmid 1113 (where 113 is the vmid number of the vm that got stuck in the rebuild) it finished in a couple secs Then started the VM, all is fine

Trying to do offline migration between 2 separate sole nodes at diffrent locations, NOT a cluster. The final error reads: Logical volume pve/data is not a thin pool However we have identical setups and we just got a subscription for the main production solitary node and did a full dist-upgrade...

TY LnxBil, Just installed & configed kdump-tools, crash, kexec-tools and makedumpfile, BCS it happened again this morning, meaning the abrupt shutdown & restart .. and after poring over the /var/log contents and the ProxMox web gui task log output it seems that pveupdate &/or apt-get...

TY Alwin ! Tot understand where U R coming from on this. The problem is that on running w2016svr VM's (ongoing production VM's that have been already running for a few months) we do on occasion have to overwrite their system state with a new System State restore from another VM or physical...

hi all, IS there a way to do this with Vzdump and the exclude options.. First the pros, with Vzdump and qmrestore we have a way to get the backed up Windows VM's (mostly win 2016 server VM's on new PVE 5.1) back into PVE and get them working in case of mishaps.. OK Since the OS boot LV Thin...

response to @plastilin on the other thread in Proxmox forums that was referred to back to here: Yes we got this working, HOWEVER the speed of doing backups (live snapshots or etc) was so SLOW, excruciatingly slow (even tho this was within a GigE LAN), we gave it up and never used it again.. we...

Hi all Posting this to save anyone else in future all the digging done to get iSCSI backup storage configured and working. PLS revise and suggest corrections and shortcuts if possible from all. The existing wiki docs either dont go far enough or are not clear enough for new comers to Linux to...
