    After PVE 7.4 upgrade, booting could not find vmlinuz-5.15.131-2-pve

    I performed a standard update on my 7.4 proxmox server to get the latest deb11 patches. I did not see any errors during the upgrade, but after rebooting the box for the new kernel, I got this error: Booting `Proxmox VE GNU/Linux` Loading Linux 5.15.131-2-pve... error: file...

    Creating cluster with 5 nodes where many containers/VMs have same VMID/CTID

    Hello. I have 5 separate nodes running now and I'm planning to create 1 cluster for all of them. However, they each have VM/CT IDs starting at "100". Will this present a problem, as far as ID conflicts, or will pvecm resolve these automagically? If I have to change IDs on the 4 nodes I wish to...

    Differing retention settings for different containers

    Hey, all. I've purchased a new 4tb volume expressly for holding backups. I noticed that the in the UI, you set the retention policy on the volume itself, so I set this value to 3. However, I have 1 rather large container that almost completely fills the backup volume with 3 backups. So, I'd like...

    nfs-kernel-server on lxc: yes or no?

    Hello, I've not been able to configure proxmox 5.4-16 to allow lxc containers to serve directories via NFS. I've heard all kinds of different answers on whether it's possible or not. Can someone from Proxmox answer this definitively for me please? I would rather not run my NFS server as qemu if...

    Can't start some containers after upgrade 5.14 -> 6.1

    Hello. After upgrading my proxmox from jessie -> buster, several of my containers won't start. I had added a second disk through the UI, and stored several containers on it. The volume shows up in the UI as a ZFS volume, and the containers show up under Content, but attempts to start always...

    NFS clarification – LXC container exporting an NFS share to other LXC containers

    Hello, all. I have to share an NFS dir from one host (server1) to three other hosts (server2-4). I've read many different threads here on this, and I'd like some clarification. 1) Firstly, Can an LXC container share an NFS mount point to other lxc containers on the same node? 2) If not, what...

    Expand default 100G 'local' storage volume to 200G?

    Hello. It appears that by default proxmox creates a 100G 'local' storage volume for VZDump backup files, ISO images and Container templates. A local-lvm was set up using the balance of our 2G disk, of which 12% is used. I'm finding now that I need more room to bring over a 162G lzo backup. Is...

    Proxmox node: can't mount NFS share

    Hello. I need to mount an NFS share on the node so I can restore a backup. I noticed I can't get nfs-common services running as they're masked in /lib/systemd/system. How would I enable NFS mounting at the node level? root@proxmox3:~# mount livespare:/liveshare /mnt2 mount.nfs: requested NFS...

    Using a second NIC on the node from VMs

    Hey all, My containers require 2 networks for application requirements. Within the node, adding a second interface to the VMs allows them to communicate between them. However, accessing other servers outside of the proxmox environment does not work. To that end, I've added a second physical...

    Adding more backup room

    Hello, all. I have a 5.4.13 node running that has a rather small 'local' directory that can have backups, templates and ISO images. I added a 1T storage called local-lvm, and 2T disk set called local2, but those only accept Disk Image and Container content. I need to ceate more room for dump...

    ebconf: Perl may be unconfigured (Can't locate IO/File.pm in @INC

    After an attempt to update from Debian wheezy to jessie, something broke perl. Now nothing works with apt-get (since it depends on perl), and therefore no PVE elements are getting updated, and all my VMs are now dead in the water. Many packages are held back, and I've tried force and reinstall...

    Running a container's GUI from proxmox local console

    Hello, all. Is it possible for a local user to log in to the Proxmox console and be attached to a windows guest GUI? Even if they have to log into linux and have that connection automatically connect to the windows os, that'd be a huge win. My users don't know the first thing about linux, and...

    Hello. I have a cluster of three 3.3.5 nodes and I'd like to upgrade them to the latest one at a time. How will Rios affect the quorum of the cluster? Is it recommended to leave the containers in place during the upgrade? Is there a procedure published? Thanks.

    Mount NFS on node works, on lxc debian container not

    Hey all. I have a share from a MacMini that I'd like to make available on one of my LXCs. I first tried mounting it on the proxmox node with no problem using "mount 192.168.1.25:/datadir /mnt/mac". However, I get strange errors when I try the same command on the container. root@trin3:/mnt#...
