    Host reboot does not gracefully shutdown VMs

    Hey, sorry. Yeah those logs look like something is off. Were any modifications done to the host like any custom scripts or so? You could try to install the latest updates. If that doesn't help, you could try to verify that the installed files still are as they should be: apt install debsums...

    copy / paste on Virtual Environment 8.3.5

    I just had to install a fresh Windows 2022 server (english) and installed everything from the 266 virtio ISO by running the virtio-win-guest-tools. After that I switched the display of the VM to Spice and after a clean reboot the new display setting gets applied and I can connect with the Spice...

    [SOLVED] Possible bluestoreDB bug in Ceph 17.2.8

    AFAICT, 18.2.4 is the most current release. Once 18.2.5 is released (shouldn't be far away from what I can tell), we will package it for Proxmox VE and will slowly push it out through the repository chain, test->no-subscription->enterprise. But I cannot make any guarantees when the 18.2.5...

    copy / paste on Virtual Environment 8.3.5

    If you check the services within the Windows VM, do you see the "Spice Agent" service running? Can you share the config of the VM? qm config {VMID} Ideally within tags, or use the code formt options of the editor.

    copy / paste on Virtual Environment 8.3.5

    Do you mean spice? A bit more infos would be nice, for example, what OS is running in the guest? Did you install the necessary drivers and agents/services? This is especially important for Spice. If you need some VDI setup, you could also consider setting up remote desktops within the VM. With...

    Get VM status via SNMP

    Well, if you install the SNMP daemon on a Proxmox VE machine, something still has to run and gather the infos that are then presented ("exported") to the client that opens the SNMP connection. So you should get the metrics that snmpd reports about the host, but AFAIK there is nothing official...

    Get VM status via SNMP

    There is no SNMP export available as far as I know. Consider a different approach. For example you can define metric servers to which Proxmox VE can send data: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#external_metric_server Some monitoring solutions have their own plugins and...

    Host reboot does not gracefully shutdown VMs

    The VMs should get a shutdown signal, either via the guest agent or ACPI. The default timeout for them to shutdown is a few minutes before they get killed. Is the "Shutdown Timeout" configured to a short amount of time maybe? VM → Options → Start/Shutdown Order.

    Renaming ZFS Storages in a Cluster for Replication

    Pretty much that with one small hint: The VM config doesn't necessarily reference the pool name, but the name of the storage. But the storage name is often the same name as the pool. Make backups of the guests before you attempt this. And of course, the guests need to be powered down while you...

    Ceph rbd mirror force promote

    So, I tried to reproduce this problem: 2 Proxmox VE + Ceph clusters (v18.2.4 / reef) Snapshot based sync Overwrite test disk image with random data (lots of changes, more data to sync) Watch target cluster for any new snapshots: watch -n0.5 -d rbd snap list --all vm-101-disk-3 Once the new...

    How do I know what RAID array is installed in my Proxmox?

    If you mean the hardware raidcontroller, then most likely by checking the specs or connecting to the iLO interface and check the hardware inventory. The lspci -nnk output can give you some indication too, but might only list the chipset of the RAID controller.

    Use 1 Qdevice for multiple cluster

    If you mean the external part of the QDevice mechanism, yes, one machine can be used for multiple Proxmox VE clusters that need a QDevice.

    Ceph RBD Storage Shrinking Over Time – From 10TB up to 8.59TB

    Since the "device_health_metrics" pool is present, you must be on older versions of Ceph & Proxmox VE. Before you upgrade, create a new pool and move all the disk of the VMs to it. If you check the configuration of the "CephPool01" storage in Datacenter -> Storage, it will most likely show that...

    What is the procedure to replace failed HD in ZFS Raid Mirror conf? proxmox 8.1

    Is it part of an rpool from which the host boots or not? In both cases, https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#sysadmin_zfs_change_failed_dev and the following chapter in case it is a boot drive. Ideally you use the /dev/disk/by-id/... paths for the disk, as this name will show...

    PROXMOX Ceph Cluster node1 unable to access ceph storage

    All that looks good. Does the UI show any errors if you go to the `cephpool` storage and there to the `VM Disk` submenu? Any differences between nodes? Or to do it on the CLI: pvesm list cephpool?

    node-maintenance does not live migrate VMs

    Also, are these VMs configured as HA and not limited only to this node via HA groups?

    PROXMOX Ceph Cluster node1 unable to access ceph storage

    I moved the thread. Can node1 access the RBD pool via the web UI without any errors? Can you post some more infos? For example: ceph -s cat /etc/pve/ceph.conf ceph osd pool ls pveceph pool ls --noborder On node 1. Please paste the outputs inside tags (or use the </> button at the top of the...

    Proxmox / Ceph / Backups & Replica Policy

    Please file a feature request at https://bugzilla.proxmox.com, ideally with some numbers that you have seen in your cluster(s). We can then think about either making this the default or easy to enable/disable from the Proxmox VE tooling.

    Ceph failing on new 3 Server Cluster.

    If ceph -s is timing out, and the network works, and the firewall is disabled (Datacenter -> Firewall -> Options), then check the state the MONs are in. The Ceph documentation explains how...

    Ceph failing on new 3 Server Cluster.

    Check if the network configured for Ceph is working. Did you enable the firewall without configuring exceptions for Ceph (macro)? If you use a large MTU, make sure to use ping with a large payload to fill up the packet so that in the end with the ICMP and IP overhead, it will be the size of the...
