Yes, that'd be indeed the simplest way, for the simplest of cases.
However, migrating to a *smaller* partition is NOT simple, and it's my case.
According to the wiki page the only way for that is the fsarchiver way...
Sorry, I know it's already old, but I think still on-topic.
I'd like to try the SSH method using dd. I'm trying to migrate an old Windows Server 2008 VirtualBox VM. I already ran the mergeide registry file in the VM.
In latest Proxmox, at least in my case, I can only create new VMs with...
This has been intriguing me since some years both for VMs and bare metal PCs.
Unlike Windows, Linux/*nix systems normally use a separate partition for RAM swapping. The thing is, IIRC there has never been a constant best practice "standard" as for how large swap partition should be. It was said...
And what's Proxmox's case?
Also, in another apart thing, back to OP again, after installing Proxmox with all defaults (ext4, etc) on the server with 2 hard disks, I found that it installed using both disks in a single LVM anyways! I suspect that, when Proxmox installer asked which disk to use...
Thanks very much.
Then finally,
a) docs say one needs an "efi disk" in order tot use OVMF. If installing a brand new VM from scratch, either Linux or Windows, do I still need to add that disk beforehand? Can't OS installer do that?
b) any reason SeaBIOS is still the default?
So I tried for the first time in life to install Proxmox (latest 5.3) finally by using UEFI in the physical server; it seemingly did work with UEFI on, albeit not with secure boot (guess it's not Proxmox's policy to pay Micro$$oft for a signed shim file...)
But now I'm wondering if it's now...
Talking about storages, I just saw the VMs' virtual disks themselves are "special block" files inside /dev, not plain ordinary files. Even highlighted in yellow in the command line. Though certainly all the VMs here are "raw" files; don't know if it's related...
IIRC in VirtualBox and libvirt...
I thought one could setup single LVM volume over multiple disks without RAID 0...
a) Or is this actually possible, just not in the installer?
b) If I'm wrong in a), how can I configure a proper Proxmox storage in the other unselected disk? I think I'd like another lvm-thin storage for the...
EDIT:
Just saw UEFI works, but secure boot doesn't. Guess it's not part of Proxmox philosophy to be charged by Microsoft to have a shim file signed, which is also good thing, not complaining.
If 2 hard drives, does Proxmox installer give the option to configure one single whole LVM for all its...
Just read this
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/SPICE#Using_Audio
and came with few doubts...
Is adding audio device via GUI still planned?
Any reason why audio devices are not installed by default in VMs, or why there's still no option in GUI?
Thanks.
So if I open port 8006 I can acces the web GUI *and* from it the noVNC/SPICE consoles for all VMs?
And, would it be advisable to change default GUI port, or is it stillnot very known like the other standard ports such as SSH 22, httpd 43, etc?
Yes!
It was indeed a duplicated IP address in the LAN!
Thanks very much sir. I had never ever seen the actual symptoms of a duplicated address inside a LAN...
If I may ask, what does no-subscription repository have to do with GUI not showing the correct Proxmox VE version?
I have not added that repository because I read in the wiki that it contains experimental packages not suitable for production environments, and this server is for a production...
Latest Proxmox 5.3 VE updated through "apt update && apt full-upgrade" from 5.2.
Centos 7.6 x86_64 guest with paravirtualized (virtio) NIC.
Turned off Selinux and firewall.
Centos guest is unable to ping any device in physical LAN, except just a couple of answered pings, but less than 20%...
