    Podman on LXC with ZFS backed volume and Overlay

    I've just tried this with podman 4.3.1 and it seems to be working in rootless. If you're going to do rootless podman, remember to edit ~/.config/containers/storage.conf rather than /etc/containers/storage.conf. And you might want to use the rootless_storage_path directive instead of graphroot...

    Can't change ownership of /dev/fuse in lxc

    I should add: The host: root@toast:~# cat /etc/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)" NAME="Debian GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="12" VERSION="12 (bookworm)" VERSION_CODENAME=bookworm ID=debian And root@toast:~# pveversion pve-manager/8.1.3/b46aac3b42da5d15 (running kernel...

    Can't change ownership of /dev/fuse in lxc

    I'm trying to get fuse configured in a container but /dev/fuse is always owned by nobody:nogroup unless I chown the /dev/fuse on the proxmox host itself. I'd like user 10000 in the container to own /dev/fuse in the container. Container user 10000 is mapped to 110000 on the host. If I chown...

    Podman on LXC with ZFS backed volume and Overlay

    very timely info for me. Thank you. But possible typo in your storage.conf Should "/usr/local/bin/overzfsmount" be "/usr/local/bin/overlayzfsmount"?

    [SOLVED] I can't delete a nobody:nogroup directory from a container

    Hi, I've got a legacy mount point in a container that is owned by nobody:nogroup and I can't rmdir it or chown it, even as root. Can anyone advise how I can remove this directory? This situation arose when I specified a bind mount in the lxc .conf file without first creating a mount point in...

    ACLs on ZFS - what's the right way?

    Hi all, I'd like to start using acls on bind mounts in my Linux containers. My filesystem is ZFS. I've read that ZFS uses nfsv4 acl while linux uses posixacl which can cause some problems if incorrectly configured. Please could you advise the right approach. Wiki states "ZFS uses as default...

    Can I ask an uid range not to be mapped in an unprivileged container

    Hey. Been a while since I looked at this, but I think there might be some confusion arising from 'mapping'. IIRC the lines which you're referring to aren't mappings. They are ranges. So, in these cases, the 'root' user is allowed to impersonate a range of uids from 100000 up to 165536, and a...

    New CentOS 7 container "connect: Network is unreachable"

    Hmm. Getting very similar behaviour with a new CentOS 8 container. In the past I have created both CentOS 7 and CentOS 8 containers and haven't had network or dbus issues. Though I can't be sure of what version of Proxmox that was with - it was a few weeks back.

    New CentOS 7 container "connect: Network is unreachable"

    Hi, I'm having major network difficulties with a fresh container install of CentOS 7 using the standard template and would welcome any help to resolve it. I can connect via pct from the host, but I can't ping from the container, the response is: [root@test ~]# ping 8.8.8.8 connect: Network is...

    Can I get error Email notifications?

    Just a bit more info on this in case it highlights a problem in my configuration. I have set up an automatic zfs scrub with zfs-zed and succesfully get emails when it does its thing. So it's not email per se that's the problem. It's just that I'd also like to receive emails when Proxmox...

    Can I get error Email notifications?

    Hi, Is there a way to get Proxmox to send an email when it encounters an error? For example, one of my containers refused to start recently (it had run out of disk space). In the task list of the proxmox GUI, the task to start the container was highlighted in red and had an error description...

    [SOLVED] Ubuntu container won't restart

    Unfortunately it looks like the problem persists after apt full-upgrade and reboot of host. #pct start 115 run_buffer: 323 Script exited with status 1 lxc_init: 797 Failed to run lxc.hook.pre-start for container "115" __lxc_start: 1896 Failed to initialize container "115" startup for container...

    [SOLVED] Ubuntu container won't restart

    Thanks for the fast response. The container used to boot at startup of the host. I've tried to start it from the GUI by selecting the container and clicking start at the top of the page. And I've tried pct start 115 from the command line of the host. I can't execute reboot at the moment...

    [SOLVED] Ubuntu container won't restart

    Hi, One of my four containers refuses to restart after a recent power outage. I'd be grateful of steps I can take to try to resolve it. I've tried issuing the command: lxc-start -n 115 -F -lDEBUG -o temp/lxc-115-2.log: Here's the output at the command line lxc-start: 115: conf.c: run_buffer...

    Can I ask an uid range not to be mapped in an unprivileged container

    OK. I think I'm starting to getting my head around this. Just in case anyone else comes across this in the same state of confusion that I was in, here are the notes I wrote to myself: I install FreeIPA on an unprivileged container. Unprivileged containers translate the uids and gids on the...

    Can I ask an uid range not to be mapped in an unprivileged container

    Hi @koalillo I think I'm trying to achieve what you've done. Just a bit confused. Did you configure the <VMID>.conf file and subuid subgid to keep the original ranges too? i.e. 0 100000 65536? Why not simply remove those and keep your new ranges?

    Basic drive configuration query (for casual home use)

    I'm going to install Proxmox as the hypervisor for my home server and I was wondering what the community would recommend as my drive configuration. I've decided to store my data on a bunch of spinning disks using BTRFS. But on what should I install Proxmox and my VMs and containers...
