Hi Neobin, You were right! This is the cause of the issue - large (and long...) PBS backups. The 'problem' here was /var/log/lastlog. I excluded this file from the backups and the issue is resolved. Thanks. I haven't encountered something like this before.

I also followed this reddit post, but it didn't work for me. I found that if I used apt-mark to prevent ifupdown from being removed AND ifupdown2 from being installed, then I didn't lose connectivity after the install or reboot. I ran the following 2 commands before installing PBS... apt-mark...

Hmmm, I don't think so, backups to 'non PBS' destinations work correctly. It is only the backups to PBS that show this issue.

Hi, I hope someone can help as I have been struggling with the following issue regard backups of LXC instances from PVE 7 to a Proxmox Backup Server. Up to now, we have been doing our backups to a NAS via a NFS share and this is working well. We decided to try out Proxmox Backup Server as an...

Hi Fabian, I am using MongoDB with a 14.04 LXC CT. This comes with a start/stop script that it installed. I tried using this script. If the CT is a privileged CT, then all works as expected. With unprivileged,the process always fails to start using these scripts. I even commented out the...

After more checks I see that if I use pct start nnn and then pct enter nnn then ulimit -a shows open files (-n) 65536 However if I then start my process, and then check ulimit it shows that I am restricted to 4096 open files so how do I determine the ulimit setting for my process? What...

I previously used pct start nnn to start my LXC containers to get higher ulimit values for my processes. Since I have installed the latest updates, this does not work any more. What is the 'new/correct' way to set the ulimit values now? Can anyone please advise me on this as I am running into...

Hi, What I did was to setup two small KVM instances with Keepalived running in them with HAProxy and then pointed these to my backend web servers running in OpenVZ containers. Works like a charm.

After messing around with this since this post, I have found the cause of the problem and a work around. I was always creating the user with the required uid:gid BEFORE adding the bind mount. If I do this, then the bind mount works correctly, but the local user has 'wrong' permissions as I...

Hi, I am running Proxmox 4 with all updates. I am battling to get unprivileged containers and bind mounts working as per these instructions: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Unprivileged_LXC_containers I created a new unprivileged Ubuntu 14.0.4 container from the available template and created a...

I have converted several existing Ubuntu 14.04 OpenVZ containers to LXC (privileged) including bind mounts without any issues. I am now trying to convert these privileged LXC containers to unprivileged ones, including their bind mounts and have run into an issue in that the mapping for the bind...

Hi, Is it possible yo use keepalived for HA with OpenVZ containers or will it only work with KVM? I see that I cannot set net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind=1 within a container. I haven't been able to find much info on the net which makes me think that it might be a problem I have been testing with...
