    init-logger chewing CPU

    On the following proxmox server: # pveversion -v pve-manager: 1.5-1 (pve-manager/1.5/4561) running kernel: 2.6.18-1-pve proxmox-ve-2.6.18: 1.5-3 pve-kernel-2.6.24-10-pve: 2.6.24-21 pve-kernel-2.6.18-1-pve: 2.6.18-3 qemu-server: 1.1-10 pve-firmware: 1.0-3 libpve-storage-perl: 1.0-6 vncterm...

    How to configure backups beyond the GUI

    If you look at /usr/sbin/vzdump (it's a Perl script), you'll see the following lines: # by default we set --rsyncable for gzip $ENV{GZIP} = "--rsyncable" if !$ENV{GZIP};

    How to configure backups beyond the GUI

    Depends a little on your version of vzdump and PVE. You may have a "Compress" option when defining backups on the PVE web interface. If you want to run a script after the backup has finished, and assuming you want to apply the settings to all vzdump backups, create /etc/vzdump.conf and add...

    Migrating from veportal to proxmox

    Thanks Tom. That all seems to work just fine.

    Migrating from veportal to proxmox

    I'm trying to migrate from veportal to proxmox (1.5). I did a vzdump on the veportal server and then a vzrestore on the proxmox server. The proxmox server sees the new server, but I can't make any changes. When I ran the following command it became obvious: # /usr/bin/pvectl vzset 100...

    PVE 1.4 kernel freezing

    No, it has the same behaviour as 2.6.24-9-pve. I think I got mixed up when I initially said I could boot with 2.6.24-10-pve.

    PVE 1.4 kernel freezing

    Finally fixed :D Thank you very much. /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules had the entry # PCI device 0x8086:0x107c (e1000) SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:1b:21:4d:a1:d1", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth1" which I changed to eth0.

    PVE 1.4 kernel freezing

    At this point, I think I'm screwed. Here's a summary of the various kernels 2.6.18-1-pve - boots, but no interfaces come up. Gets the error eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device 2.6.24-9-pve...

    PVE 1.4 kernel freezing

    Setting VIRTUOZZO=no in /etc/vz/vz.conf allows apt-get install proxmox-ve-2.6.32 to complete successfully. But you're saying that 2.6.32 has no openvz support? What's the latest kernel I can use with openvz support? Alternatively, how do I downgrade to 2.6.18?

    PVE 1.4 kernel freezing

    I then thought I try to do the install with 2.6.32-1-pve running, as I assumed the reason I got the "Running kernel is not OpenVZ kernel...failed" error was due to me trying to install running a vanilla Debian kernel. However, I got the same results, ie: # uname -r 2.6.32-1-pve # apt-get...

    PVE 1.4 kernel freezing

    Just to expand on the above, I started from a totally clean debian system and try to install the newer kernel. # uname -r 2.6.26-2-amd64 # dpkg -l | egrep 'pve|prox|vz|qemu' # # cat /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://debian.mirror.iweb.ca/debian/ lenny main deb-src...

    syslog appliance

    Given that Debian Lenny comes standard with rsyslog, I don't see the point in creating a specific syslog appliance.

    PVE 1.4 kernel freezing

    I don't necessarily want to update from the pvetest repository. I just want to boot a kernel that won't hang. I still have the same problem # apt-get install proxmox-ve-2.6.32 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done proxmox-ve-2.6.32 is already...

    PVE 1.4 kernel freezing

    Perhaps I'm missing a step somewhere, although it's getting quite messy now. Here's the messages I'm getting after booting with 2.6.32-1-pve # uname -r 2.6.32-1-pve # aptitude install proxmox-ve Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Reading...

    PVE 1.4 kernel freezing

    I'm trying to install PVE1.4 on top of an existing Debian Lenny installation on a AMD phenom x3720 server in a data center (via a Lantronix KVM). The data center admin staff wouldn't install proxmox from baremetal, hence the reason I'm trying to install it on an existing Lenny install...

    vzdump snapshots

    Ah, I think the confusion I'm having is that the mounted snapshot is the same size as the logical volume it is snapshotting, rather than the size of the snapshot itself. Is that right?

    vzdump snapshots

    I've been spending most of the day reading up on vmdump snapshots and I'm still a little confused. Here's how my PVE1.3 server is configured Now, I understand why I can't simply do vzdump --snapshot 100 as the dump file will be written to /var/lib/vz/dump (I don't know why this is made...

    Issues with hostnames after reboot

    yes, I know it sets both /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts. The point was that if you want both files to have correct entries, then you need to set the hostname from proxmox/openvz to be the FQDN rather than the short hostname.

    Issues with hostnames after reboot

    Sorry to flog a dead horse here, but the issue I have is with proxmox/openvz generating the entry in /etc/hosts If my server name is 'server1' and my domain is 'example.com', then /etc/hostname should contain 'server1' and /etc/hosts should contain x.x.x.x server1.example.com server1 The...
