Hi, I find it useful that proxmox shows me which guests have no backup job definded. Could this information be made available to another menu ? When adding a new job, we have four menu items: "include selected VMs, ALL, Exclude selected VMs, Pool base". I think it could be useful to add an entry...

Hi, The latest intel i7 processors seem to be capped at 8 Performance-cores while paying more money gives you more Efficient-cores. 1) Should we ? I mean, is there really any benefit for PVE to increase the number of Efficient-cores ? I feel that price could go exponentially while performance go...

Hi, I am very happy with what i have seen i the youtube introduction of PVE 8.1 and think that the new features are major ones. When i upgraded one of my clusters, I have seem that pve 8.1 includes phpipam and netbox, which are both labeled as ipam tools even though they are quite different. So...

Hi, Would it be possible to show nic health in system==>Network menu as is done with S.M.A.R.T information for discs ? People managing PVE servers are often far from the server room and seeing led status of a failed nic is not possible, so they could loose hour(s) looking in wrong directions...

Hi, I am facing the need to export backups off-site offline. From what i have understood, and to simplify, bakups are stored in (fixed size for vms, variable size for containers) files called chunks. And that the set of chunks that makes a backup is stored in indexes, thus allowing chunks to be...

Hi, I have a promox ve server, backing to a proxmox backup server with all the benefits of pbs. I would like to also backup/archive to an external hdd once a week and take that hdd off-site offline. This VM disk is around 3.2TB of size and could go up to 5.7TB in the future without adding...

Hi, Is there any plans for a PBS client for freebsd ? This would allow people running freebsd servers to send backups to pbs. In my case i would like to be able to backup truenas sahres to pbs. TIA. Fathi.

Hi, For an unknown reason /etc/systemd/system/mnt-datastore-xxx.mount and /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/mnt-datastore-xxx.mount are no more available and i have to mount all datastores manually on one of my proxmox backup servers. Upgrading to version 3 didn't solve this issue...

Hi, It happens, more than we would like, that a server/disc/controller crashes and that the relevant proxmox node becomes marked as offline. The problem is that containers and vms hosted on this node become irrelevant numbers. Add to this, that when creating new VMs/containers or restoring ones...

Hi, I have a message about a bad chunk on my pbs dashbord. What does this mean ?

Hi, We are often led to create virtual machines or test containers for the needs of different project managers, poc, demonstrations, events, ... that we forget to destroy and which sometimes end up becoming production environments without having passed the necessary tests. My proposal is to have...

Hi, I have a PBS with three discs, one for the PBS operating system itself and two others discs configured as independent data stores. The operating system disc broke. I replaced it with a new one on which i have installed PBS 2.4 and now, i would like to "import" the two datastores with all...

Hi, I would like to setup shared storage for my Proxmox cluster and i am wondering which is the best solution for my small cluster (no FC, no dedicated ethernet path for storage, ... just all cluster nodes and planed Trunenas core storage server with single oepnzfs pool (2 mirrored disks), on...

Hi, Some people are sending spam to my users from their own emails: Spam appears to be sent from the receiver address. This causes some panic as people think their accounts have been hijacked. How could i block email when the sender=the receiver (From=To). I have rules taht match field to a...

Hi, I would like to block email sent to m@mydomain.com. I have set up a what object with Filed match To m@mydomain.com but then all mail sent to emails ending with m@mydomain.com gets blocked. I would like to block email sent to exact receiver email address. Tried different combinations, but...

Hi, I have a PMG behind a firewall with only port 25 from the public ip address redirected to port 25 of my PMG. In the tracking center i find the following few informations about an abusive email: Mar 2 09:09:05 mail postfix/smtpd[4340]: connect from localhost[127.0.0.1] Mar 2 09:09:05 mail...

When running VMs and containers on a PVE node either clustered to other nodes or not and some particular updates are pushed to the update repository (like updates to the kernel and other pve services), should we restart the nodes after applying these updates or not ?

Hi, PVE does a great job of periodically backing up vms and containers and PBS another great job of periodically checking those backups. What about scheduling periodical restorations to nearly complete the cycle. So, one could schedule periodical restorations then etheir retain the restored vm/...

Hi, How to disarm hyperlinks in emails making them unclickable so that a user must select a given text to copy-paste it in its browser ? This also could prevent clicking on emaisl that have the text part different from the hyper link.

Hi, Recieving every day emails from my pve server about a "1.5 Tb windows file server" backup on a pbs server (all always kept to latest versions thanks to Proxmox folks generosity with the no-subscription apt repo), i noticed that nightly backup times vary from less than 2 hours to nearly 19...
