    Basic 1 node install - LVM/Disk partitions

    I have a single node installation. Home lab. Just trying to better understand what I'm looking at in the screenshot provided. Basic installation with LVM creates root, swap, and data. I have a few questions. 1. Based on the screenshot /dev/sda3 must be "data", correct? I can manipulate sda3...

    Renamed a node; now all VMs broke?

    I found it. I went to /etc/pve/qemu-server and edited the conf file for a new vm, adding an existing raw image disk image to it. Thank you both :)

    Renamed a node; now all VMs broke?

    I've created new VMs but have no option to restore from backup. So I must do it via command line. Whan I initially installed PVE it created 3 objects under my single node; "local', "local-lvm" (where the raw disk images are located), and "local-lvm2". So, from the ssh console, where do I...

    Renamed a node; now all VMs broke?

    I'd prefer to learn how to correct this situation than to scrap everything and start from scratch. I'm taking detailed notes on all that I have done thus far in the way of resolving previous issues. This is my way of retaining some "functional" knowledge as I learn more about both Linux and...

    Renamed a node; now all VMs broke?

    Ok I'm in deep water. New to Linux and Proxmox. When you say guest, you mean virtual machine I assume. When you say edit storage manually, I'm lost. I don't see a GUI option to attach an existing RAW disk image to a guest.

    Renamed a node; now all VMs broke?

    I renamed my node (single node environment). After much grief, my VMs appeared under the old node name. Now that I have removed that old node name I see only the raw disk images on storage, but no VMs. Where should I look to recover them or can I attach these raw disks to new VMs if recovery is...

    Renamed standalone node

    Renamed standalone node. Changed /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname from "PVE" to "MSI". Now I've gone and done it. When I restarted the node, I see both MSI and PVE. MSI has a green dot. PVE has all of my VM's with '?'. What did the noob miss on this one? I thought "migrating" to MSI would be smart...

    Understanding Storage Types, Content, and Drive Size

    Seems contrary to the whole design of LVM, but then again we are only speaking of blocks crossing physical disks, correct?

    Understanding Storage Types, Content, and Drive Size

    So if I understand you correctly, this would potentially break anything that extends across 2 or more disks in a volume group/thin. In practice, VM's and file storage alike could be lost? If that be the case, then only on physical disk per LVM is recommended?

    Understanding Storage Types, Content, and Drive Size

    I resolved the connectivity issue. I installed an update to CentOs and both my Ethernet and WiFi adapter were rendered enabled. Simply disabling my Ethernet adapter (as my only connection to Proxmox is via WiFi) resolved the issue.

    Understanding Storage Types, Content, and Drive Size

    Update. I restarted my server. I can now only login at the console. It is connecting via SSH, but it keeps telling me that my password is incorrect. I tried the CAPS LOCK a few times and no change. I'm not using the keypad, rather the number keys. I've cleared my browser cache and I even tried a...

    Understanding Storage Types, Content, and Drive Size

    Thank you very much for the clarification. I think I did break something, but it's not something I changed with the disks. I was waiting to hear back. Sorry for my own late response. Work has been relentless. Today I've tried to login via my web browser and I get "Firefox can’t establish a...

    Understanding Storage Types, Content, and Drive Size

    Backgroud: I've installed PVE on a standalone node, not a cluster. The physical ssd is 232.89 GiB as viewed from "Disks" under my node (named PVE). During the installation process I/it created: 1. local (pve): Content = VZDump backup file, ISO image, Container tempate > Type = Directory > Size...
