    [SOLVED] What is preventing Proxmox from being optimized to run on a USB flash drive?

    I run a personal home server from a usb device. Today I've moved /var and /usr to a pair of raid1 wd reds to avoid disk io wait time and minimize writes/reads to/from the usb device

    Minimizing writes to USB device the system's installed on

    Hello, I run Proxmox on a hp g8 microserver(ms) at home for personal use. Debian was installed on a usb3 device in the internal usb 2 port. The reason I had to go with the USB solution was that I don't have a spare ssd for OS installation and the onboard sata/raid card wasn't recognizing my...

    What is the Proxmox dev team using for making non-Debian containers?

    Any modifications you make to these images for having unique hostnames, ssh keys and passwords removed for Proxmox? Or do you take them as they are available?

    What is the Proxmox dev team using for making non-Debian containers?

    I know dab's used for making ubuntu and debian containers. The dab source code and samples are on https://git.proxmox.com/ and the samples don't look complicated so will try dab in a pve4 vm However that still leaves the question where the developers get all the other containers? The reason I...

    Booting VM-s with IPXE

    I've realized you can set the default vesamenu.c32 to default linux and lower the timeout(eg 5), so it does look automated after a boot.

    Booting VM-s with IPXE

    The server runs nginx, dhcp, nfs and tftp in its own /24 subnet. Here's the dhcp config file if relevant: I've used the RHEL 7 docs as base. # # DHCP Server Configuration file. # see /usr/share/doc/dhcp*/dhcpd.conf.example # see dhcpd.conf(5) man page # option space pxelinux; option...

    Booting VM-s with IPXE

    I wonder if you can boot VM-s on Proxmox so that they enter a command(eg linux) from the ipxe boot menu. I got kickstart and netbooting working in my lab and so far it's automated after a new VM starts up. Currently this step where I enter "linux" which is the default boot entry...

    Squeeze EOL LTS maintenance

    Last time I've tried a squeeze VM out, I couldn't get apt working. Debian repo mirrors don't have it anymore and the archive readmes aren't updated yet either.

    Windows 2008 R2 / 2012 R2 - BSOD - Inaccessible Boot Device

    Oh I see. I thought it was just the placeholder disk you get when you remove the main/only/last disk from a KVM, but it's a real disk, sorry. There are some results for searching Google.com for "windows 2012 r2 Inaccessible Boot Device". Some complaints are due to windows updates. This is a...

    Windows 2008 R2 / 2012 R2 - BSOD - Inaccessible Boot Device

    My case differs from yours somewhat, but I can see you've got CD-rom as a first boot device. Try to remove the CD from the Hardware menu. I couldn't boot some VM-s from the gui as they had cd-roms(ISO-s) on a no-longer available NFS share "disk". Under that I mean this...

    Shrink qcow2 image

    That's good. There seems to be also a different way of doing from jamescoyle.net: http://www.jamescoyle.net/how-to/323-reclaim-disk-space-from-a-sparse-image-file-qcow2-vmdk His idea is similar to yours somewhat, instead he used qemu img convert to resize the disk.

    PVE 3.4

    Hi, I'm currently trying out clustering and the more advanced features of Proxmox, on version v3.4 in a virtualized environment. They've got a private vlan, pfsense is the router on 192.168.3.1, the wheezy desktop is on 192.168.3.2 and everyone else runs from dhcp leased addresses on the rest...

    Is Proxmox v4 depending on systemd?

    Ok, I've looked at the proxmox hypervisor that's running this PVE systemd-less v4 VM and tried to start/restart all pve processes that I've found on the host. root@pve4:/home# pvestatd restart Failed to get D-Bus connection: Unknown error -1 command 'systemctl reload-or-restart pvestatd'...

    Is Proxmox v4 depending on systemd?

    I've just installed deb 7.9 from the amd64 netinstall with system utils and ssh server, installed sysvinit according to http://hydra.geht.net/tino/english/faq/debian/apt/jessie/ to get jessie without systemd. I've then dist-upgraded to jessie and it seems pve fails to configure itself after...

    Debian install guide - no webinterface loading

    clean new install: add node: authentication key already exists

    I got the same message when I tried to: testcluster: pve1 pve2 create cluster on pve1 add pve2 from pve1 you need to add pve1 from inside pve2. See https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Proxmox_VE_4.x_Cluster, but it's rather confusing. as root on pve1: pvecm create YOUR-CLUSTER-NAME pvecm status...

    Best Way to Port Forward on Single IP Dev Node

    Edit: This is not a solution. It worked, but it seems restarting networking nulled network connectivity on all other vms on other subnets. So I don't recommend doing this. End edit. I'm documenting this for my own reference and perhaps it'll help others as I couldn't find answers to adding...

    Best Way to Port Forward on Single IP Dev Node

    Hello, I currently have two proxmox nodes(physical, on different ip ranges). Also have 3 proxmox VM-s on the same /24 NAT(10.0.60.0) on proxmox node 1. On 10.0.60.0/24 there are only those 3 proxmox vm-s to avoid confusion. Both of my proxmox nodes have only a single ipv4. I've got 3 proxmox...

    Port Forward with built in NAT and PVE Firewall

    I'm sorry to resurrect that, but what's the situation with qemu redirect now? I've tried qemu -flags -options, but it seems it got replaced with qm(qemu shows no command found on bash as sudo). I also can't find a flag or option that goes with qm that would copy what the -redir flag should do...
