    Proxmox restarts while booting install DVD

    Hi Hermonella, Yeah, I've had similar stuff happen to me.. for me the issue was both a DVD with some surface damage in just the wrong place, and also a failing USB DVD drive. Does this issue happen with other hardware (try what ever spare PC/Laptop you have lying around)? Could you burn...

    proxmox and pfsense - connectivity under lan

    Hi Hujino, Great that you are trying out Proxmox! I hope you stay with it for a long time! I do have to ask, and also advice from others, is pfSense better run from a dedicated server, or it is ok practice to run it virtualised? #askingForAFriend / #beenThinkingTheSame .. ;-) - Alex

    Backups not working with "unprivileged" containers.

    The priveldges for /mnt/pve/proxmox-backups are exactly the same on both nodes.

    Hi Ramrot, Sorry for the delay: /etc/exports ============ /volume2/proxmox-backups 10.30.200.85(rw,async,no_wdelay,no_root_squash,insecure_locks,sec=sys,anonuid=1025,anongid=100) 10.30.200.60(rw,async,no_wdelay,no_root_squash,insecure_locks,sec=sys,anonuid=1025,anongid=100)...

    Backups not working with "unprivileged" containers.

    Hi Ramrot, Thanks for this, and I know what you mean. The crazy thing is that on the other node it works just fine.

    Backups not working with "unprivileged" containers.

    Hi, The tar / permission denied one. No problems on another node, no problems with existing (priviledged containers / unprivileged: no) containers, no problems with VM Just this one very repeatable scenario. I've gone through every related post I can find about containers not backing up...

    Backups not working with "unprivileged" containers.

    When creating a new container, if the "unprivileged" box is ticked, the container cannot be backed up. Restoring a container as "unprivileged" means that it won't start. Backing up VMs and "priviledged" containers works. Hlep ... PVE 5.4-6 Clustered. One node from two has this problem. Node...

    VM snapshots will not work. Backup works..

    I had a poke around, looked at the options presented if were to move the disk image. It seems to be a raw image, even through I explicitly converted it to qcow2. My steps (for example): qemu-img convert /path/to/Windows-flat.vmdk -p -O qcow2 80GB.qcow2 qm importdisk 111 /path/to/80GB.qcow2...

    VM snapshots will not work. Backup works..

    yeah .. I'm starting to get that feeling now... The coverted image is on zfs-1 local-zfs: seems to be something which get set-up when I the servers were built. zfs-0, zfs-1: Two raid devices. I figured it would split the load between devices. I've got one heavy-ish server on each pair...

    Restoring a VM backup for testing purposes jams the original VM

    @LnxBil - yup am prepared for that. I ticked the "Unique" box when starting restore process. @Fabian_E - thanks! I'll try testing the other machines, but later on. Production is still a little grumpy, so I want to let them cool off a moment. ;-) Thing is, I'm restoring to different storage...

    VM snapshots will not work. Backup works..

    Hi Spirit - thanks for this: I've got something like this: HW RAID -> Proxmox -> ZFS storage. Data center storage looks like this. Snapshotting for other VMs and CTs work just fine. It's just this one imported VM which is giving me a headache.

    Restoring a VM backup for testing purposes jams the original VM

    Hi, I have a QEMU VM (111) (coverted from VMDK), and I'm trying to figure out why snapshotting isn't working. I am trying to restore a recent backup of 111 to, say 114, so I can test stuff without breaking the production server. Problem is that when ever the restoration gets going, VM111...

    VM snapshots will not work. Backup works..

    Hi - I'm running now Proxmox 5.4. I've a VM which has been converted from vmdk to qcow2. The VM boots fine, but snapshots are unavailable. Storage is zfs. Ideas?
