Hi, is there a way to prune backups for a given container without creating a new back-up ? I can of course do it from the GUI but would like to do it from the CLI. Thanks. Marc

Hi, I am having difficulties migrating a Debian container running on a Proxmox 6 host (5.4.106-1-pve) to a plain Debian 10 server (kernel 4.19.0-16-amd64). I tried the following : - restore from Proxmox backup - restore from tar archive with --numeric-owner option - run lxc-start as user and...

Hi, I would like to perform two automated tests on the backups taken every night of my containers and VMs : - untar - start The backups are transferred every night to a machine that runs Debian 10. I started writing a bash script that takes the latest backup for a given CT/VM ID and untars...

Hi, I am trying to allow an unprivileged container to communicate with my APC UPS using apcupsd. I have modified my conf file and added the two following lines : lxc.cgroup.devices.allow: c 189:* rwm lxc.mount.entry: /dev/bus/usb/001/006 dev/bus/usb/001/006 none bind,optional,create=file On...

Hi, I installed 6.3 on a new server in order to test it prior to migrating my main server. In the process, I switched from LVM to ZFS. I would like to use the qemu-img -resize command in order to shrink a raw file on ZFS. How can I achieve this ? Cheers. Marc

Hi, this may be a stupid question to those who know the answer, but not to me... Can I upgrade a container to Debian 10 without upgrading the host, which currently runs Debian 9 ? Tanks in advance. Marc

Hi, I would like to know if Proxmox has a feature similar to a non-persistent drive in VMWare Workstation. I remember that a similar question has already been asked and answered negatively in the past. But things may have changed though searching both the internet and this forum hasn't given...

I cannot get rclone to mount a remote in an unprivileged container : Proxmox 5.3.8 Debian stretch 9.6 rclone 1.43 Here is the error : Fatal error: failed to mount FUSE fs: fusermount: exec: "fusermount": executable file not found in $PATH And I do have /dev/fuse on the host : :~$ ls -l...

I am slowly recovering from an OVH dedicated server that didn't boot any more. I took the opportunity to upgrade from 4 to 5 and from dir to lvm-thin storage but it was a lot of pain and down-time. Fortunately and although I have a couple of production-grade apps running on it, it is only for...

I would like to know if I can safely upgrade the kernel of my Debian stretch machine @ OVH. They are proposing the following kernel update : amd64 Linux kernel, version 4.9.150-xxxx-std-ipv6-64. Thanks in advance. Marc

I have been forced to reinstall Proxmox on my dedicated server at OVH last week and took the opportunity to migrate from 4.4 to 5. Note that I install Proxmox on top of Debian 9.4. Windows VM, private IP, NAT/PAT works fine. Debian LXC container, fail-over IP, doesn't work (I can't get it to...

Hello everybody, I have a Debian 9 container with 2 IPs, one public (eth0) and one private (172.16.0.106 eth1). I have configured iptables to forward port 10622 on the Proxmox host to port 22 on the container. No luck, the connection fails. I can SSH the public IP and do a tcpdump while I...

Hi, first a quick commercial question. I'd like to buy a subscription but don't know how many CPUs my dedicated server has. Here is what I read on the summary of the proxmox home page. CPU(s) 8 x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1245 V2 @ 3.40GHz (1 Socket) Is it 1 CPU with 8 cores or 8 CPUs ? Now...

Hi, I have been struggling to get NAT working for a container with only partial success : it works when I run the command from a shell but does not work when I set it up in /etc/network/interfaces. The host runs debian 8 and proxmox 4.4.12 (upgraded from v3, itself upgraded from v2). So, as...

Hi, I have been struggling to put two hosts (one is an IBM Thinkpad T520, the other an Intel NUC) into the same cluster without success. On a debian 8 + Proxmox 4 machine, when I run # corosync-cmapctl -g totem.interface.0.mcastaddr I get Failed to initialize the cmap API. Error CS_ERR_LIBRARY...

Hi, I have created a NFS share that hosts a couple of VMs but I would like to increase the network performance by caching data on my internal SSD. CacheFS caches whole files and does not support files larger than 2G... Not suitable for VMs. If I could map a file on my NFS share to a block...

Hi, I've been trying to setup replication between two cheap PCs (proxmox2 and proxmox3) using drbd : Proxmox2 mounts resource data2 (/dev/drbd2) as primary at /var/lib/vz has resource data3 (/dev/drbd3) as secondary Proxmox3 mounts resource data3 (/dev/drbd3) as primary at /var/lib/vz has...
