    Windows 10 freezing / locking up on PVE 5.0 problem

    I checked, the only option for power settings on the server was a low power mode option and it was disabled.

    Windows 10 freezing / locking up on PVE 5.0 problem

    Hi Wolfgang, Yes, 0.1.141 is installed. In terms of power management, are you talking in the guest VM or on the host system itself? In terms of the host, I'm pretty sure all power saving is off - it doesn't ever shut down and it was originally one of my test platform servers when I was first...

    Windows 10 freezing / locking up on PVE 5.0 problem

    Hi all, I recently installed PVE 5.0 (prior to the 5.1 official release, I haven't updated this unit yet to 5.1) - I seem to be having an odd issue I haven't been able to track down. What's happening is that Windows 10 will basically seize up and no longer function properly. It *appears* to...

    Where do I remove a lock??

    Hi all, Last night, in the middle of the backup run, the power went out beyond our battery backup and there was an unclean shutdown of the system. I've brought it back up, but I have several VM's that are locked with the message: Error: VM is locked (backup) I know it's not backing up, and...

    Multi VM Multi VLAN Set Up

    On mine, I usually do similar to: # network interface settings auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface eth0 inet manual iface eth1 inet manual auto vmbr0 iface vmbr0 inet static address 192.168.6.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.6.1 bridge_ports...

    Cluster not working - /etc/pve read only

    Sounds almost like your switch may be blocking multicast... I don't have the links in front of me, but there are some threads about adjusting the switch for multicast groups...

    Correct "expected votes" for a 3-node HA cluster?

    It expects 3 (one for each node), it got a total of 3, but as it states lower down you only need 2 for quorum so you're fine.

    Backup Solution

    Honestly, for MSSQL backups I just use the MSSQL Server Backup capability built into it run on a regular schedule to do a backup of our database to a separate location (in our case, a secondary drive on the VM from which a set of scripts run to do an offsite copy of the backup as well as two...

    Import vm in new Proxmox install

    Personally I use a combination of things - I use NUT to connect to my battery backup to issue shutdown commands to my proxmox servers if the battery backup runs low (to reduce the risk of a dirty shutdown). In terms of backup, I use the built in proxmox backup functionality to backup to an NFS...

    [#681] Proxmox+Ceph: pveceph createmon: unable to find local address within network

    Re: Proxmox+Ceph: pveceph createmon: unable to find local address within network You shouldn't change that file really (the PVE file). For one thing - the spacing for the interfaces file is pretty standard how it should be laid out, which includes indenting the settings that refer to a...

    proxmox image clone

    Certain things will change with a migration like that - for example, the MAC address of the ethernet adapters will change so the associations will be different (unless you transfer the physical cards from one box to another). Is this part of a cluster? if it is, why not just spin up a new box...

    repeatedly problem with proxmox.

    Ok, I wasn't sure if all nodes had the subscription or not as the picture you posted only showed the two green nodes which made me wonder if the others were not on subscription.

    repeatedly problem with proxmox.

    Now I could be very wrong about this - but AFAIK, you can't have community and non-community in the same cluster, and all systems in a cluster have to be under the same level of support... I wonder if that is causing some of your problems? Possibly different versions of software available via...

    Plex Media

    I never said it wasn't fine, the sanity of it could be debated based on the strength of the host box, but I feel it's a waste on a weaker box because of the stress the transcoding can put on the box - especially if you have more than one client requesting video that requires transcoding. I mean...

    Plex Media

    This would be interesting - but would it be worth it? If you can just do streaming on the media it could work ok, but if you needed to transcode, you'd have to dedicate a good amount of resources to make it a truly viable option - at that point you might as well just host it on its own box (in...

    [SOLVED] Proxmox+Ceph no de Hi IOWait

    Re: Proxmox+Ceph no de Hi IOWait I'll be curious as to how your research in this turns out. I have a much smaller Ceph cluster (3 nodes, 6 OSDs per node) my iowait/io delay usually sits between .5% - 1.5% topping out at about 10% during the period when the VMs are being backed up by proxmox -...

    suggestions for shared storage for productive environment

    A lot of this is my opinion, so take it or leave it :) We use a combination of CEPH and NFS for our back end storage - mostly CEPH as VM storage and NFS as backup and ISO storage. I personally like CEPH. If you aren't running DB heavy VMs then Gluster is an option as well. NFS is an option...

    Help... upgraded Proxmox from 3.2 to 3.4

    did you by chance try to install qemu from the debian repositories? try doing: dpkg -l qemu-utils* (that's a lower case L btw, not a capital I) and see if it shows something installed. How exactly did you do the upgrade procedure from 3.2 to 3.4 initially? Are you using the subscription...
