    Proxmox over WIFI (WLAN)

    I have an old laptop that I want to use as a Quorum device and also as an administrative terminal, which can work both inside and outside my rack if needed. I found that if I install Proxmox using the ISO and then create a VM using OpenWRT, I can get that to act as a bridge for the wireless...

    Encrypt ZFS pool

    If you are trying to move from a ZFS encrypted pool to another ZFS encrypted pool, be it the boot pool or otherwise, I believe it is not possible, but I have never used ZFS migration or replication in any of my setups, as I only use ZFS for the boot-pool "rpool" and do not store any other data...

    Encrypt ZFS pool

    I have adapted the instructions a little to fit my needs, but the previous instructions should work as my adaptations were based on them and a few other resources I found online. As for replication, it should only affect encrypted pools, but I have not tested adding another non-encrypted pool...

    VNets SDN VLAN IP configuration

    I am unsure if it would work with an SDN setup but I have used OVS and OVSIntPorts to create IP addresses for the Proxmox host on various VLANS though the VLAN tag is specified in the IntPort. I did try using SDN but because my primary VLAN is not tagged it would not work for me unless I redid...

    Node maintenance mode UI

    My current practice is to set any VMs i will jeep running during maintenance to "ignored" in the HA manager and then I stop any VMs that will not be kept running. I then put all the nodes into maintenance mode and then I manually move the running VMs as needed while completing any maintenance...

    Node maintenance mode UI

    As of Proxmox 8.3.1 it will show which nodes are in maintenance mode on the UI however you still need to use the CMD line to move them in and out of maintenance mode.

    SDN creating a vlan vnet with id 1 causes network fail

    I would also like to see the ability to use both tagged and untagged VLANs with the SDN as well as the expansion of the DHCP system not just simple networks.

    Upgrading PVE Tries to Remove proxmox-ve package

    Just tried the first half on one of my non important machines to test while I leave my production machines for a fix. It worked without any issues. I'll report back on the second half once the issues have been fixed.

    [SOLVED] Recommend way for encryption

    I have been testing/using native zfs encryption on my root pool on a single node install and is has been working flawlessly. Though I did not setup remote unlock on this install as it is a laptop with a DE also installed so I have a built in keyboard, mouse and monitor for unlocking the boot...

    Considering CEPH

    I run 2 Ceph clusters in my home environment and while not setup both hardware and network wise to production standards, does meet my needs. My first cluster is 7 nodes with 2 1Gb links and 2 SSD OSDs per node. It won't win any speed contests but it offers simular performance from either...

    Update to 8.2 changes the names of the network interface

    After reading the issues with network interfaces changing on the upgrade to 8.2 I went through the 7 nodes I upgraded yesterday and used the instructions HERE to override the device names to eth# and each name is associated to the interface's MAC address which is a consistent value. It also...

    Setup one bridge per VLAN with OpenVswitch

    I have VMs that connect to mutiple VLANs and I have a single bridge that they all connect to and if I do not specify a VLAN on the VMs interface they get the untagged VLAN for that bridge and if I specify one on the interface they then used the tagged VLAN. For each VM that needs to be connected...

    Proxmox VE 8.2 released!

    I just finished the first batch of updates and had no issues on any of the systems I updated. With the possible issue around interface renaming, I did do the assign network naming changes that have been mentioned before and rebooted after applying those changes before doing the update. So far...

    Looking for LOM/ lights out option for proxmox

    I have a DIY pikvm setup that is connected to an 8 port kvm switch to add sorta a poor-man's IPMI to some of my servers that are too old for the virtual console in their IPMI to work with a modern browser. I have been thinking of keeping this setup and possibly adding a second one if and when I...
