    Kernel panic when transferring several TB of data with rsync -avz on HPE Proliant Microserver

    Proxmox VE will be turning 14 years old this coming Oct. 29 !

    I think this is an important milestone as I often get remarks along the lines of "Oh, I had no idea this existed ? It must be new !", so it's interesting to know that the full roadmap going back to version 1.0 and before is very easy to find and examine. Version 1.0 of Proxmox PVE was released...

    Hooks for pre/post-migration of VMs and containers?

    Is it possible to have hooks when migrating VMs and containers, like there are backup hooks? I need to change the gateway of VMs that are moving between 2 members of a cluster that have are on 2 separate networks. LANs are the same but there is a separate interface for the public Internet access.

    Thank you! Flawless hardware upgrade in progress.

    This morning I had a scheduled PVE hardware upgrade planned. The plan was to move PVE OS disk + local data disk from an aging system (A) to a temporary system (B), in preparation for new faster disks + RAID being installed on (A). I just plugged the (A) disks in (B), booted and... it works...
