    [SOLVED] removing ghost from previous node - HOWTO?

    Hi folks, I am trying to revive an old proxmox machine. Thanks to the help of the forum I have already been able to rename and move a couple of vm's, and upgrade to debian bullseye and upgrade proxmox from version 5.x to 7.4-18. So far so good. At the moment I'm withheld from creating...

    The dreaded rename issue - HOWTO fix?

    Doing some more searching I found this post. systemctl stop pve-cluster /usr/bin/pmxcfs -l [main] notice: forcing local mode (althought corosync.conf exists) I followed that after sw-omit's suggestions a couple of posts before this one, I was then able to mv the files from the old pve name to...

    The dreaded rename issue - HOWTO fix?

    Hi folks, Please bear with me, here's a little background info to illustrate my situation: A couple of years ago, must have been 2018 or 2019, I started out with Proxmox. At that time I had two Proxmox servers up and running. (Homelab situation). Somewhere 2021 we moved to a new house, and in...

    learning and recovering previous proxmox install

    Sorry I have not been able to reply any sooner. I found some loose harddrives that I suspect have been member of my 2nd PVE machine. Quickly connected to macOS using a usb dock showed the drives as unreadable. This does not suprise me. On top of that I started using a new 2nd hand macbook only...

    learning and recovering previous proxmox install

    That should be doable. I have been searching for the original disks. (by serial) And I did find disk two of three, so one is still missing. Disk #2 is present in PVE, but not mounted. Can we use that one? Or would you prefer a usb drive? How would you suggest to connect it? A third way would be...

    learning and recovering previous proxmox install

    Correct, I forgot about the ISCSI connection. I did an experiment with that at the time. I've removed the ISCSI connection from both Proxmox PVE and the Synology DS1. Thanks for sticking with me and helping out!

    learning and recovering previous proxmox install

    Hi folks, A couple of years ago I engaged in my Proxmox adventure.. I'm not a linux tech, but I can find my way around (with help of a lot of searching..) At the time I set up my first Proxmox machine, then later, not sure why, but I guess mostly for learning purposes I added a second machine...

    Hi Wolfgang, Thanks for your reply. Problem was indeed in /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname. Can you confirm please: ** Can you give _any name_ to a proxmox machine?** Meaning that you could use your own naming convention. (I have solved the issue in the mean time, but part of the solution was to...

    can we configure the number of threads of a cpu for any given vm cpu?

    Hi Bil, thanks for replying; It's not a specific problem. I already have a (free) Proxmox server running and would like to complement it with a second one. Idea would be in the first place to create a (backup) mirror. In the meantime I have been looking at Teresa's video's (Morgonaut) where...

    can we configure the number of threads of a cpu for any given vm cpu?

    Hi, can someone confirm whether it is possible (or impossible) to configure the number of threads for any given virtual machine's cpu? I'm on Proxmox 5.3-5. I can set the number of cores. But it seems I can not set the number of threads? (maybe from the command line?) Thanks for helping out!
