Lately without me doing any configuration change, except for updating the Proxmox host (7.4-17 now) and the LXC Guest Samba server, I ran into a huge headache with connecting from my Windows 11 SMB client to the above Samba server. Basically, whenever I tried to open the drive or browse the...

Hi, Our lab is installing a new system with EPYC CPUs and one Nvidia A100 GPU. I have experience with Proxmox over consumer grade hardware over the last couple years, but I have never tried so on a more enterprise setting. It would be great if you can help me with some questions I have: 1. Is...

Sorry if what I was wrong to do this in LAN, but I am trying to setup WebAuth to replace TOTP for my nodes within my LAN network. In DataCenter -- > Option --> WebAuth, I tried to set the domain name to the LAN IP of the node: https://192.168.1.4:8006 However, then when I tried to add for a...

Found the reason: Mentioned here: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/y7b97e/my_computer_wakes_up_immediately_after_i_suspend/ Some motherboard or chipset seems to keep waking the computer, a not so clean solution is simply disable them. In my case, I found more than one device doing...

I am trying to config my new Proxmox Backup Server (2.4-1) such that it can be put to sleep when not being used, and only wake up over the midnight to perform backups. While I tried to put it to sleep using systemctl suspend, while it does goes to sleep for maybe a few seconds, it instantly...

Your journey has been an interesting read, thanks for sharing your progress! Now if I may ask a question, were you able to generate video output to the HDMI with the above setup? I am currently trying to set a VM with an Intel N100 iGPU and hope to have it working as a HTPC, so being able to 1...

Great to know you got that far, may I know if you eventually got video and audio passed through to physical HDMI output?

I don't remember enabling ACS override, as the board should by default support VT-d and passthrough so I didn't try but I should check. (The board is Supermicro X11SRA). It's a good idea to check those issues people might have experience regarding Thunderbolt passthrough, the situation maybe...

From the list of passable items in Proxmox, there are 3 modules (bb, bc and bd( plus 2 more (bf and c9) probably for the PXI chassis itself which I think were the relevant entries, indented in the output below. The current issue is while I can see and drivers can connect to the module in the...

Sorry if this is not related to Proxmox, but I am out of idea with a recent passthrough related issue. I am trying to use some instruments through a PXI-E chassis. It is essentially a instrument chassis like eGPU box, which extends the PCI-E connections to outside of a workstation, by...

Turns out I just didn't know how ubuntu works: After the change of UID:GID assignment, the directory /var/cache/man should be owned by the user man, not root. Thus, if your new UID is 400000 for root, then for man it will be 400006 and man's GID is 4000012. On host, you should then first mount...

After I have changed the UID and GID for an LXC, I also changed the UID:GID on host for that image file (mounted by pct then chown). While I can boot up the LXC and everything seems to work, when I install any package into the LXC as LXC's root, these errors always show up Any idea what maybe...

I hope I have solved it the right way: I changed the UID:GID assignment range of my SSH LXC to start from 200000 instead, and by assigning the folders with 1777 permission, now I can share the files between the LXC while preventing one from deleting/modifying files created by each other.

A partial update after some attempts: Apparently, if the two LXC shared the same UID, their host UID will be the same, e.g. 101000, thus no isolation will be achieved as from host the two files/folders were created thus accessible by the same user. If I created a second user in one of the LXC...

Hi, I am trying to set up two unprivileged containers, one with SSH access, the second with a Samba server. Both LXCs have bind mount to the same directory on host. The idea is, I will drop files into the bind-mounted folder from a Windows client using WinSCP though the SSH LXC, and the files...

Thanks, this explains it really well; as the only system that did not work was the 32GB RAM guest I tried - other guests were assigned much less memory. So it wasn't freezing because of any conflicts but solely because of the system was running out of RAM.

Second update: The issue is now solved, turns out I assigned too much memory to the Windows VM. I have 32 GB RAM, and I assigned 32GB Max/16GB Min to the Windows guest, this way it won't boot if I have a PCI-E device attached. As the Ubuntu guest works, I tried to change the setting of the...

Thanks for getting back to me, I will post them when I have a chance to get back to the server (might be away from it for a while). I would like to update, though, with more tests done earlier, I realized I could forward the said SSD (and possibly other PCI devices, not tested), to a new UEFI...

I am trying to setup a PC with the following spec: Intel C422 chipset W-2225 for CPU Running Proxmox 7.3-4, and I am installing 2 VMs with legacy BIOS for virtual routers, and 1 VM with OVMF and machine type q35 for a Windows 11 installation. All installed well, I then followed the wiki page...

Final update: I think I nailed down the reason, and it was indeed mentioned in the wiki which I missed. https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Pci_passthrough#The_.27romfile.27_Option For some reason, even with the same system that worked in the past (I have done pass through on all slots with GPUs), I...
