    SSD recommendation & raidz vs mirror

    I want to test PBS to backup 18Tb of VM’s (on proxmox ve). What kind of SSD’s would you recommend? Buying enterprise SSD’s is quite expensive and maybe consumer grade ssd’s are fit for these kind of backups? After all it’s only sending incremental changes, right? What do you think? I also...

    Should I enable or disable "logical processor" in bios?

    Hi, I'm setting up a cluster with E5-2673v3 CPU's and I'm wondering if I should either enable or disable the logical processors in the bios? Back in the old days I knew I had to disable "hyperthreading" but now I'm unsure. Maybe it's better to have it enabled these days? Thanks for your help

    New cluster. What can you recommend?

    We are planning to install a new proxmox cluster for hosting VM's. I can get a couple Dell R730XD servers but I'm unsure what to buy exactly. We do want the VMs to be fast so we're going enterprise SSD's only. For one. I'm not sure which storage option to choose from. Ceph sounds interesting...

    Is the rule system "Network address" supposed to work with IPv6 CIDR?

    I have 2a01:111:f400::/48 in my Mail Filter > Who Objects > Whitelist A test email was delivered from 2a01:111:f400:7e0a::208 I added the "notify admin" action to the default whitelist filter (which is using the Who Object > Whitelist for matching). But I do not get any notification. It seems...

    Why are there two whitelists in proxmox?

    There are two locations for a whitelist: Configuration > Mail Proxy > Whitelist and Mail Filter > Who objects > Whitelist I'm not sure what the difference is between these two? Is Configuration > Mail Proxy > Whitelist for postfix's whitelist and the who objects for pmg-smtp-filter? If so...

    Is PMG supposed to auto-update the 'spam dector' rules ? (sa-update?

    I'm new to PMG, been using it for only 3 days now. Quite satisfied too! But the past days I always manually went to Spam Dector > Status > Update Now in order to update the spamassassin rules. Today I didn't do it manually and it still didn't update automatically. For clamav there's a...

    Suggestion: "Spam" and "Ham" button on quarantaine page? To train SA

    Wouldn't it be a good idea to have a SPAM and HAM button at the top, next to the WHISTLIST and DELIVER buttons on the quarantaine page? That way we can easily train SpamAssassin by feeding HAM and SPAM message that are in quarantaine. And it shouldn't be hard to add either.

    Outgoing filter - spam - aren't those notifications dangerous?

    If we configure proxmox mail gateway to filter outgoing spam it will effectively filter spam and virusses. But it will also send notifications to both the sender and the admin in case an email gets blocked. This behaviour is fine for normal users but what happens if an account of one of our...

    URIBL not working?

    I received an email containing a blacklisted url (in dbl.spamhaus.org). I thought spamassassin is always check dbl.spamhaus.org by default but there is not even a report in the headers telling me it contains a blacklisted uri. How do I make proxmox mail gateway check for blacklisted uri's and...

    How to log subjects of all incoming email?

    How do I log all subjects of incoming email? It doesn't matter if I can't see them in the gui but I need the log in case I need to debug things.

    Eicar test email not delivered and not in virus quarantaine?

    I'm new here... And I tried this ( http://www.aleph-tec.com/eicar/index.php ) site to send an eicar virus as a test to my mailbox but the mail is never to be found. In the mail.log I can see it has been relayed to "relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024" but it's not visible in my virus quarantaine...

    Anyone using multipath iSCSI over gigabit ports to increase throughput?Or balance-rr?

    I have 10 proxmox VM hosts and a shared storage. Each proxmox host has 2x gigabit ports. The shared storage has 6x gigabit ports. I currently have each node set to do LACP with the switch using 2 ports. The same goes for the storage, with 6 ports. Everything works fine but, offcourse, my VM's...

    How is one supposed to backup a proxmox cluster?

    Say you have 10 proxmox nodes and shared storage. And a backup server. If I configure the proxmox cluster to backup every night at 2am, it'll start backing up from all nodes to this single backup server. Everything is connected over a 1G network so it makes no sense to have all 10 proxmox nodes...

    Task blocked for more than 120 seconds => VM file corruption?

    I have a proxmox node that's currently running only one VM. It's running a mysql server inside and I have configured linux software raid10 in proxmox over 4 samsung 840 Pro SSD's. Speed is awesome, also in the VM. So mysql is running better than expected ! It's been running like that for a...

    VM's crashing

    I have a couple of proxmox nodes using a shared storage (nas) over nfs. I have been running proxmox 3.3 for months without many problems. The only problem I had is that I have one VM running Kerio Operator (=Phone system, running on linux) and this VM crashes/freezes randomly. Usually every...
