    Memory snapshot stuck in limbo

    Hey. I had a failed snapshot of a VM the other day and I noticed now that while there are now snapshots listed for the VM and `zfs list -t snapshot` returns with no results, there is a `vm-100-state-<snapshot-name>.raw` file on the associated storage. I can't seem to delete it through the web...

    Upgrading Debian 8.0 LXC containers to Debian 9

    I have a couple of unprivileged containers running the Debian 8.0 (Standard) template. These have systemd disabled, afaik, due to an privilege issue. However, the issue is obviously solved with the Debian 9.0 template as systemd there works just fine. However, trying to upgrade the 8.0...

    How to best migrate to new host?

    Thanks for the info. With backup/restore I'd need enough storage space somewhere to store all the backups, which might be a challenge, so I guess the cluster method is the only viable option.

    How to best migrate to new host?

    Hi! I currently have Proxmox running on two hosts. With one being an old gaming PC and the other being a small server I want to replace both of them with a proper rack server (Supermicro 5019S-M). However, my question is how I can most easily migrate all my VM's and CT's from the two...
