That does NOT mean the topic is solved, come on formatting/zeroing the disks.... We have the same problem after a update of Proxmox....

Yes okay but what can be wrong. I just do aa DD from the raw file to the ZVOL volume......... it is configured as Virtio Device with a larger size than the actual raw file. So when i have a raw file of 90GB i create a VM with a harddisk of 100 GB (to be sure) and i configure it as Write Back...

We cannot use clonezilla because the physical machine need to stay online. I'm using the following tutorial: http://blog.unicsolution.com/2015/05/clone-live-linux-server-to-kvm.html I'm not sure how to fully clone the partition table.

Hello LnxBil, Yes, after some lookup i finally found out how to populate a ZFS disk. Our command is slightly different tho: dd if=<raw_file>.raw of=/dev/zvol/<poolname>/vm-<vmid>-disk-1 Another problem; the size of the ZFS volume is much larger than the actual raw file.. has this something...

The situation is: I have a raw file on my ZFS volume I want to attach the raw file to a new virtual machine and boot from it. You say i must copy the rawfile to an lvm with dd. Can you please provide me some detailed instructions? I would really appreciate that, of course i will post the...

Hi, Sorry for the late reply. We use ZFS storage. Correct me if i'm wrong but lvm thin is a different technique than lvm and you cannot combine those....

I'm virtualising physical Linux servers to a ProxMox 4.2 environment. Currently i have completely rebuild the partition scheme and synced all the data via rsync on a virtual hard disk file in a ".raw" container. My next step is that i want to create a new Virtual Machine and boot it from the...

So what you are suggesting is: - Install Debian Wheezy (which has the i965 module included??) at http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/archive/7.9.0/ - Install ProxMox kernel on top of Debian at https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_Wheezy Or am i completely wrong?, After the...

Can i install this via my current ProxMox 3.3? and than use a fresh iso to install the newest version?

Hello, I have the same configuration and had the same problem. First i tried to install Debian and than manually load the kernel via the instructions on the website. That din't work out, it gave strange USB errors when loading the kernel. So i removed any USB device, but than it simply won't...

Yes, i this is exactly what i'm looking for. So the VM's getting automatically mirrored via zsync(which is my script doing atm). Plus the fact that it is aware when a VM fails(or whatever) so the failover server takes it over. So you are very sure this is absolutely NOT possible in any way at...

Very interesting, i am playing around with zfs sync as well. I made a shell script which does the following: It is constantly watching the "etc/pve/qemu-server" directory for new files. When a new VM is created, a configuration file(100.conf) will be created in this map. The script detects...

Hello, Is it possible to use the High Availability Cluster feature in combination with zsync instead of a shared storage? Any idea's on the approach? And when i click on the tab "HA" than its all grayed out, any thoughts? Best regards, Rens

Ah solved! My path in the config file was: ide0: datapool:vm-103-disk-1,cache=writethrough,size=15G But should be: ide0: VMs:vm-103-disk-1,cache=writethrough,size=15G Because i messed around with the data paths(i renamed it). Thank you! You got any experience with pve-zsync?, i want to...

I think i figured out why, originally i stored the VMs in a directory(on the pool but not as ZFS if you know what i mean), later on i moved the hdd to the zfspool. So this leaves the VM itself on the old directory... Can you tell me where the original store location is of the newly created VMs...

I shut down the machine, Removed the unused hard disk But now the VM can't start with the following message(all VM's cannot start). "storage 'datapool' does not exists (500)", i think this came because i moved the disk to the correct pool(zfspool). When i install a fresh machine in the...

By that you are talking about the: "unused0: VMs:100/vm-100-disk-2.raw" ?? I will remove it, moment.

Excuse for my late reaction, here is the output of the give command: xx@xx:~# cat /etc/pve/qemu-server/100.conf bootdisk: ide0 cores: 4 cpu: host ide0: datapool:vm-100-disk-1,cache=writethrough,size=32G ide2: ISO:iso/xxxx.iso,media=cdrom memory: 8192 name: Windows-7-x.x.x.x net0...

Hmmm, no my VM's are located on the type "zfs" as storage. See the screenshot i uploaded..

Btw, thanks for the quick responses! Best regards, Rens
