    anti automation (false) detection

    I have 12 servers each with approx 125 VMs with unique dedicated ipv4 addresses that are not blacklisted. I use proxmox os on the servers. My problem is that, even if using browser vpn, that various websites and apps can view the VM's as all being from the same network and giving us problems...

    SWAP USAGE 100% WITH 20% AVAIL RAM

    I don't even know or understand what the hell Swapping is :P ;) I thought of wife swapping when I first saw it and some of the posts on it. If I want to reduce the SWAP Usage should changing the number from 60 to 0 have helped as its changed nothing? where would i find DMESG from the console...

    SWAP USAGE 100% WITH 20% AVAIL RAM

    whats DMESG? They are actually running identical tasks (in fact less of a load than the other servers with less swap usage). Should I put the swappiness back to 60 from 0? Or, does it matter? Can the 100% swap hurt my ssd?

    SWAP USAGE 100% WITH 20% AVAIL RAM

    I reset the swappiness to ZERO and yet the SWAP % is still 100% and shows as 8GB of 8GB use vs allocation. Is this a mistake? Or, I can basically ignore this and it wont cause any issues to my server (i.e., crashes, auto reboots, etc.)? It would not be a sing of underlying hardware problems? I...

    SWAP USAGE 100% WITH 20% AVAIL RAM

    I am having aNn issue. 4 identically configured servers running identical tasks yet one of the servers is at just 80% of Ram usage with 50gb free yet 100% of SWAP USAGE configured at 8gb. What precisely do I do to fix this as I am not well schooled on using command line other than how to open it.

    How can I disable updates?

    Is there a way to disable updates? Perhaps it may have crashed. Though I did not notice anything of that sort. Just in the taskbar logs something about a failed update (whether it was being autodownloaded or whatever I do not know as I was asleep and am the sole admin).

    How can I disable updates?

    I am running Proxmox 5.4-3. I have about 120VMs running at any one time. However, yesterday, I logged in to find all of my VMs shutdown, and in the tasks, it noted there was an update which was not user triggered by me but automatic. It was quite a pain in the ass as I had to restart all the...

    Moving VMs from Local-LVM drive to Local drive?

    Thx DO I put an X for "shared" as its unboxed now and not shared? WHich selection do I use for content in the drop down menu for LOCAL? I reckon we have narrowed the issue just one of these two things should do the trick!

    Moving VMs from Local-LVM drive to Local drive?

    I get as far as: "Select "local" as target and then "OK" Only LOCAL-LVM shows up as target. How can I add "Local" as target? I remember a few years ago, a tech attached via usb (dont recommend this but works in a pinch) a 500gb ssd drive and somehow added it as a target. So, its likely the...
