    What is the purpose of the "Undo Zoom" button on the graphs on the summery page?

    I was looking for a way to zoom out on the list of graphcs on the summary page in order to be able to screenshot all 4 graphs (cpu, memory, network and disk-io) but the closest thing is this "Undo Zoom" button, that kinda suggest there should be a way to Zoom the graphs?

    list which iso or template is used/required for vm/ct?

    Is there a way to list which iso or template is used/required for vm/ct? I am carefully taking snapshots but just realize (sometime?) the iso/template used to create it is required in order to restore it. I realize I perhaps should have made a note of it during creation, but I didn't. I'm sure...

    Is there a way to supress the writing of the standard vzdump logfile?

    I believe vzdump outputs the exact same logging info on stdout and to the logfile with the same name as the dump? I run a script for daily snapshots + borgbackup/deduplication +prune, that output everything to a comprehensive logfile so have no need for the default named logfile. Is there a...

    How to route IPv6-only client through IPv4 host?

    So I have a host with both IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity - that works. How can I route traffic from a IPv6 client through the hosts IPv4 interface? I've spent hours googling, and it seems this should be possible, for example by tunnelling the traffic through one of several protocols like 6to4...

    OVH - IPv6 only

    With the recent cost increases for IPv4 addresses, and increased adaptation of IPv6 I'm planning towards IPv6-only deployment in OVH. https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/OVH seems to suggest that clients need to have an IPv4 address before an IPv6 can be added. Is it not possible to add an IPv6...

    [SOLVED] CT is assigned swap space but appears to have none.

    Proxmox 6.4 host with ZFS. Created LXC container with 1 GB RAM and 1 GB swap. From Proxmox everything seems fine, but in the container there is just the RAM, no sign of swap. I think there is something about ZFS not using swap, but then why does the GUI allow me to assign it? What is the...

    How to change the drive reference in a zfs pool from /dev/sdX to /dev/disk/by-id (ata-XXXXXX)

    After having had a boot problem because I'd used device names for my zfs pool rather than ID's, I realize I have to change it. Searching for hours, all I find are a couple of references that basically says to "just" ... zpool export storage zpool import storage -d /dev/disk/by-id When I try...

    "sharing" a PCI controller between the host and a VM (passthrough)?

    If I have a 2 (or more) port PCI controller on the server, is it possible to pass it through to a VM so the VM can use one disk on the controller, while the host is using another disk on the controller? I could of course just try it, but since the host disk is the boot disk it might cause the...

    zfs change passphrase

    How do you change the passphrase on proxmox zfs? https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/ZFS_on_Linux explains how to set a password, but not how to remove or change it. The internet suggests "zfs key ..." but that command is not available on proxmox' version of zfs.

    So I have this LXC container running docker with unprivileged,nesting=1 running fine, but just realize I created it on a raw image, which means snapshots take too long. I restored a snapshot to ZFS storage, which completed fine, but now docker no longer starts. I get this error...

    qm migrate offline migration

    I have a bastard cluster - as in two identical servers, each with it's own disks i.e. not shared disks - and I need to move one 400 GB VM from one server to the other. Since they don't share disks I suppose I need to do it as an offline migration. Not a problem per se, but I need to know what...
