    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    You could also create a tab "Virtual Machines" (per Server or per Datacenter) where the user can view all virtual machines on one page like the old Proxmox GUI. Additional advantage: The user could start/stop VMs in one place and wouldn't need to switch around between different VMs anymore...

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    I fully agree... beautiful solution... also fast to accomplish by the developers. Summerization of solutions: 1. relocating the button "remove VM" into the summary tab 2. red text/background/images in crucial confirmations concerning loss of data 3. default answer in crucial confirmations...

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    I think you and your team did a great job. There is just a necessity to distinct messages advertising data-loss an other ones. And the default button for data-loss-cases should always be NO, not YES!!!!

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    okay... On the other hand... a programmer should not expect that a user reads important messages among hundreds of unimportant messages which look similar. This would also call the sense of proxmox in question. In essential, Proxmox is a GUI, which helps to control KVM/OpenVZ... I think it...

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    At this point I don't agree. The warnings are only clear in juristic way. If you delete a bunch of Hardware in several VMs/CTs, a "Are you sure..."-question is appearing in every single hardware deletion case - looking quiete similar like the question which pops up while deleting virtual...

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    dito. Nevertheless, professional software like Proxmox should not unnecessarily bring forward crucial human mistakes which could end up in data-loss... Think probabilistic... Compare expectation value (for the whole mass of users) and cost of correction for this tiny problem... I had a...

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    The most users won't intend to delete VMs very often. As I said... just renaming the buttons would be enough... Placing a checkbox into the "Are you sure?"-question would be most sophisticated. I renamed my buttons... I think this should be a serious topic for the developers as well - among...

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    Sure, Proxmox asks again before deleting VMs. But it also asks the same way before deleting tiny things like virtual network-cards... And this cases of deletion are not equivalent in view of their consequences. And yes, life is dangerous, but I'm still living many years instead of keeping the...

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    Hello, at first: Proxmox 2 looks great, thank you so far... I sadly have to announce a small mistake in the conceptual design of the Proxmox web GUI: The "remove" button for removing VMs is located at the very top right corner of the Proxmox administrations webpage (in the near of the...

    Install on Soft Raid

    I agree. And I would like to add that one can get rid of the drive cache problem using DRBD.

    shared storage: LVM2 or CLVM ?

    Ive a proxmox cluster with shared drbd-storage up an running and I would like to take a snapshot-backup of individual logical volumes manually. How should I achieve this backup on a cluster-node step by step? What means rescan? Just "lvscan" before and after taking and removing the snapshot? Sascha

    Installation issue when using High Point Rocket Raid 2640x

    I made the experience that its a very bad idea to use the HighPoint RocketRaid 2640 in RAID mode on productive systems. Ridiculous performance and reliability... no more precise comparisation necessary... :-(

    Installation issue when using High Point Rocket Raid 2640x

    The controller specification can be found here: http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA_new/series_rr2600.htm (clicking the "download" link expands a lot of information and controller details) HTH

    Installation issue when using High Point Rocket Raid 2640x

    This question is also interesting to me. In a week I plan to install proxmox on a server using a HighPoint RocketRaid 2680 controller. If I make any progress I will let you know... It might be an option to install proxmox on a blank debian lenny as described in here...
