    VM freezes irregularly

    What about thermal limits? Anything restricted here?

    VM freezes irregularly

    That sounds pretty dangerous. So, it's probably best to configure the BIOS with some reasonable safety settings. Anyone knows which settings are most important?

    VM freezes irregularly

    I'm feeling with you. People are saying that Protectli have a very good customer service. That's actually why they are paying the premium price compared to all the other available boxes. Maybe you contact customer service and see if they have a solution? Or, if not, maybe they exchange the box...

    VM freezes irregularly

    How did the update work? You flashed the iso on a USB stick and booted from it? Did you need to do anything, like choosing the right entry in a Chinese menu? And did you need to reset the BIOS settings or set something special?

    update Proxmox 6.4 to 7.3 without UEFI?

    OK, I took the plunge and simply updated the system with the risk of getting an unbootable system. Fortunately, the system still works with a legacy boot (MBR + grub). Everything is alright. Puhh :)

    update Proxmox 6.4 to 7.3 without UEFI?

    Hello I have a Proxmox 6.4 ZFS installation on a HP Microserver Gen 8. I would like to update to 7.3, but I am afraid of the apparent requirement to move to proxmox-boot-tool using UEFI boot: If your system was installed on ZFS using legacy BIOS boot before the Proxmox VE 6.4 ISO...

    Docker LXC Unprivileged container on Proxmox 7 with ZFS

    Well, I started a couple of containers and so far, everything seems to work. docker always reports "overlayfs backed by ZFS". :)

    Docker LXC Unprivileged container on Proxmox 7 with ZFS

    Are these workarounds still needed for docker in an unprivileged container backed by ZFS? I just installed 7.3.3 on a new machine and created an LXC container. I loaded the overlayfs module on the host and configured docker in the container to use overlayfs2 driver. This is the output of...

    lxc with docker have issues on proxmox 7 (aufs failed: driver not supported)

    P.S.: Did anyone test running a 5.4 kernel (from the Proxmox 6 series) on Proxmox 7.1 ? Maybe that could also be a viable way until there is a final solution?

    lxc with docker have issues on proxmox 7 (aufs failed: driver not supported)

    As aufs cannot easily be compiled as a module (it needs several patches to the whole kernel), I gave up with compiling my own kernel module. I found a workaround, which would work, but which I not really like (using ext4 for the docker volumes). Therefore, I will downgrade back to Proxmox 6.4...

    lxc with docker have issues on proxmox 7 (aufs failed: driver not supported)

    Are you sure about that? The proxmox kernel builds on top of ubuntu-impish. Looking at the kernel tree of the ubuntu-impish kernel 5.13, I do not see any aufs sources in the tree: https://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu-impish.git/tree/fs To me that looks as if the fault is with ubuntu. I...

    lxc with docker have issues on proxmox 7 (aufs failed: driver not supported)

    I stumbled over the same problem when upgrading my Proxmox 6 installation. I will now try to recompile the kennel to see if I get this working again.

    Another docker experience on Proxmox

    The "userns-remap" option is in the lxc container (the docker host) in the /etc/docker/daemon.json file and does a complete user namespace remapping for all docker containers. So, in effect I have the following: a privileged lxc container with a docker host running as root, but confined by...

    Another docker experience on Proxmox

    This I have. I also checked the ip_forward setting in all the ingress namespace. All of there are 1 (except on my RPI, where I needed to set this manually strangely...) My guess is that "lxc.mount.auto: proc:rw" and "lxc.apparmor.raw: mount," probably have a very similar effect, but I will give...

    Another docker experience on Proxmox

    I just want to describe my experience with docker in lxc container under Proxmox. Maybe someone has some improvement ideas or my description is helpful for him/her. Goals: 1. Use the effortlessness of docker to install and maintain applications. 2. Monitor and manage centrally all running...

    abysmal write performance on ZFS lxc container? (now with kernel oops)

    Yeah, that sounds resonable. Probably that's the cause. Would be great, if it thus is already fixed. I will update the host system and see, if it happens again. Although, the kernel oops was just a secondary effect. The primary effect was that the unpacking of a deb archive in the container...

    abysmal write performance on ZFS lxc container? (now with kernel oops)

    Well, maybe I wasn't very clear here. The block was not just inside the container. The block stalled the whole host machine. So, there is, unfortunately, no chance to enter any commands when such a block may happen again. On the other hand, "By default the Proxmox containers do not account for...

    abysmal write performance on ZFS lxc container? (now with kernel oops)

    Thanks for the feedback. This is really a serious problem as it did completely stall the whole machine. The LXC container has two vCPUs allocated and 1GB of RAM, which should be plenty for its normal processes (simple file server). At least as long as file caching etc is allocated to the host...
