    Migrate Proxmox VE itself from one partition to another

    I have PVE 7.3 installed directly on a RAID-1 mirror of 2x Crucial SSDs that are burning up too quickly for my liking. About a year in, they have 39 and 38% wearout. Rather than outright replacing that volume, I'd rather just move the PVE install itself to the ZFS RAID of Samsung...

    Proxmox Backups causing data loss with regards to partitions

    For more times than I can count now, across about a half dozen VMs over the course of several months, I have experienced partition table losses due to Proxmox backups. I have to boot the VM with a partition recovery tool (easeUS), do a scan, it always finds the partitions, thankfully, then...

    VM is suspending randomly

    A Windows VM (1 of 3) on a PVE host randomly suspended twice within a few hours. The first time, I tried to start it again but it wouldn't work, so I had to do a Stop then restart and it came back online just fine. Then backups ran, ended successfully, and about an hour later, the same VM ended...

    Break ZFS temporarily, safely

    I have a Proxmox node with 2x 240GB ZFS mirrored drives for the system itself, and 6x 480GB SSDs in a RAIDz1. The RAIDz1 array has faulty SSDs that are wearing out too fast and right now I'm dealing with corruption that's breaking partition tables on some of the VMs. This particularly seems to...

    [SOLVED] Change datastore locations with no data loss possible?

    I goofed when I first setup and configured my PBS server. I have 10x 8TB drives that I am doing a RAID-10 mirror with ZFS for approximately 40TB of usable storage. I set up a datastore called vm-backups that is using ALL of that available space, because that's the point right? The pool name...

    Large VM keeps freezing/crashing lately

    Am I over-allocating RAM? 96GB assigned to a Windows Server 2016 VM on top of Proxmox 6.4. Host has 128GB physical RAM. We have had this configuration for several months without issue, but have experienced extreme slowness/freezing where a forced Reset is the only recourse 3 days in a row...

    [SOLVED] PVE 6 to 7 Upgrade Pre-check request

    Hello all, We are running PVE 6.4 and looking to upgrade to 7. I have done 5.4 to 6 in the past, back in 2020, with no issues. However, this time around, there seem to be a little more "gotchas" outside my comfort zone - particularly when it comes to hardcoding the MAC Address of the bridge(s)...

    Rebooting a CT makes the whole thing stall

    Having an urgent issue here where one of my nodes is stalled out (at least in the web UI). All I did was restart one of my containers, a simple cPanel-DNSONLY box due to upgrade and it's stalling out the whole node where none of the names show and it's all grayed out for the VMs and CTs...

    Warning: Remote Host Identification Has Changed error

    I have fives nodes in my cluster named pve0, pve1, pve2, pve3, pve4 and I can shell into all except pve2, which gives me this: How do I even begin to make the suggested changes when I can't shell into the node? Thanks in advance.
