I find, when trying to reach the console of a vm when booting it, vnc is slow to connect. Meaning I miss the Proxmox splash screen/bios and the opportunity to interact with a guest's boot menu. e.g. pfSense and trying to interrupt boot to get single user mode. Is there something I can do to...

I've configured PMG to use a single relay (smarthost). I recently saw a rejected mail with the response: 552 Message contains bare CR and is violating 822.bis section 2.3 (in reply to end of DATA command) I changed my mail client to use plaintext and the mail was accepted. I guess this is a...

I run lm-sensors in a container. I can read the host sensors fine but cannot set thresholds from within the container (I currently have to do that on the pve host). What lxc device node permissions would be needed in order to successfully run sensors -s within the container? The board's sensor...

What is the best way to whitelist all mail that arrives via one specific fetchmail account? Many thanks.

I have a hookscript with pre-stop and post-start phases defined. The hookscript is successfully called when I shutdown the VM via the UI or when a scheduled backup job runs. However, if I shutdown or reboot the PVE host, when it shuts down the guest concerned, the script is not found...

Following the upgrade to PVE8, I notice in the web UI two containers that show zero Disk IO. Prior to the upgrade, these displayed disk read/write stats. All other containers and VMs are displaying levels of disk IO as before. The two CTs concerned are both unpriviledged Debian 11 containers...

AIUI it is recommended to perform the upgrade with all guests shutdown. My home router is a proxmox guest, so I wondered if I will encounter problems if I download packages, stop that guest, and continue with the upgrade offline: apt update apt dist-upgrade --download-only qm shutdown 100 apt...

I set up docker in an unpriviledged lxc container. In order to get an elasticsearch docker container to run, I set lxc.prlimit.memlock: unlimited How can I determine a suitable finite value?

I've a few emails that score with: KAM_SOMETLD_ARE_BAD_TLD 5 .bar, .beauty, .buzz, .cam, .casa, .cfd, .club, .date, .guru, .link, .live, .online, .press, .pw, .quest, .rest, .sbs, .shop, .stream, .top, .trade, .work, .xyz TLD abuse However I don't see where the emails concerned match this...

Within a vzdump hook script, how can I differentiate scheduled backups from those run interactively via the web UI? There doesn't appear to be anything in env I might use to do this.

Regarding backup of a datastore when there's no remote PBS to sync to. I'd thought to periodically rsync the datastore to a removable drive and restore same way if needed. Presumably I need to halt the backup service. Is there a better approach? Thanks.

I noticed the date selector in the statistics section offers 31st September as a valid selection. When selected, it seems to find data to display under the various stats sub-pages and that data differs from both 30th Sept and 1st Oct. It seems like a bug to me. I am on Mail Gateway 7.1-7.

Hi I'd like to try to setup an Alpine based container running hostapd. I have searched the Proxmox forums and have not found any recent posts regarding accessing host's wireless hardware from within a container. I gather this may now be possible with lxc. How might I configure the container in...

On my PMG (Proxmox LXC) installation, I am often (possibly always) unable to login via ssh after applying updates apt dist-upgrade. The message I see on the remote client is: ssh root@smtp kex_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer After restarting ssh via the web UI, all is...

Under a default setup, in the 'Dangerous Content' object, x-ms-dos-executable content filter seems to appear twice. Is this by design and if so what does it achieve?

I have Intel SATA ports configured as AHCI in BIOS with one port designated as hotplug. I use this, connected to an HDD caddy, for hotswap drives as a (non pve storage) backup destination. Despite some warnings due to incomplete ACPI implementation of this board: ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could...

I recently aquired a new switch that has various MIB counters (Zyxel GS1900). Everything looks good part from one metric, etherStatsOverSizePkts. This is only non-zero on the two VLAN trunk ports I have configured on the switch. For one of these ports in particular, it runs into the 10's of...

I just did an in-place upgrade to 7.0.10 using the guide and it went very smoothly indeed. Great job! One change/anomaly I noticed after upgrading PVE: A container running a single instance of elastic stack worked fine under pve-6.4. After upgrading PVE, the elastic process (java) in that...

I hibernated a vm via the web UI for a few minutes and them attempted to resume it: ~# qm resume 195 Resuming suspended VM activating and using 'vmdisks:vm-195-state-suspend-2021-04-25' as vmstate id 0, group 0, virt start 0, virt end ffffffffffffffff, generation 0, delta 0 id 1, group 1, virt...

I have all VMs and CTs on a single LVM-thin volume, in a dedicated VG consiting of one partiton occupying entire single disk. I'd like to migrate the VM/CT volumes it contains to a new disk. I am not sure what the best way to do this is. I considered disk cloning but the target drive's available...
