I am trying to migrate my Proxmox install to a 1L mini pc, so that I can convert my current much underused server into a second backup NAS. I have a 120GB SATA SSD that I intend to use as a OS drive. I also have a 1TB NVMe drive that I want to use as VM/CT storage and also for PBS backups. The...

I currently have my proxmox installed on a 2U server with 32GB of RAM and a Xeon E3-1220 V3 processor and 1000w redundant psus. I have 11 lightweight LXC containers running and the current server is extremely under utilized. I am also using 6 out of 12 bays as a ZFS replication target from my...

My PBS is a LXC container and I had all of this working prior to a shutdown that I did. After rebooting my proxmox server, the backups have not worked. Yesterday I upgraded Proxmox frm 7.4.3 to 8 and also PBS from 2.4 to 3.0 but I still have all my backups failing as below. INFO: starting new...

I have PBS installed in a LXC container and was wondering how strict the minimum 5GB space requirement is for the upgrade? Anyone out there who has upgraded PBS in a LXC container? Thanks.

I have PBS running in a LXC container on my PVE server. The datastore is mounted as NFS in PVE and made available to the PBS container as a mount point. All this was working fine until the 8th of Nov, when I updated my TrueNAS server from 13.0-U2 to 13.0-U3. This involved a reboot of the NAS and...

Hi, My Proxmox seems to be requesting a large number of DNS queries and I was wondering why that was. I have about 24K queries from the proxmox box in 25 hours which accounts to about 40% of the queries. The top queried domain is for my NAS box -- probably because my NAS is configured as a...

When I backup my containers and vms, I see the following warning message INFO: restarting vm WARN: old systemd (< v232) detected, container won't run in a pure cgroupv2 environment! Please see documentation -> container -> cgroup version. INFO: guest is online again after 163 seconds INFO...

Hello, With the PVE backup job also providing a retention policy option, what is now the recommended way to set up retention policy? Implementing it in PVE seems natural since the backup job details will show you the retention settings as well giving you the complete picture. Does implementing...

Hello, I have Proxmox & TrueNAS on my network. I created a PBS container on Proxmox and want to use the TrueNAS as the backup datastore for PBS since I have already setup ZFS Replication from TrueNAS to another server. So when I use TrueNAS for PBS, I would get 2 backups for the price of 1...

Hello, I installed Proxmox 7.1-7 using ZFS as the root file system. I have now setup ssh from my linux box to proxmox. However when i run the zpool command as root it says [proxmox: ~]── - zpool status zsh: correct 'zpool' to '_zpool' [nyae]? n zsh: command not found: zpool Basically all ZFS...

I am moving my proxmox server to a bigger server. I was using LVM before but now I moved to a ZFS. I have been able to successfully restore all my clients and they work as expected. However, I am unable to restore my VM. I have tried the GUI as well as the command line When issueing the...

I have a 2U server with a rear drive caddy that supports 2x2.5" drives. I also have 2x 500GB HDDs that I sourced from older laptops. So I thought I'd setup a ZFS mirror as my boot pool and also use the remaining space for my VMs as they would be faster since they would be local. Secondly I can...

I have version 6.4-13 on a 1U- 4 bay server. However, I want to migrate the server to another physical box (2U - 16bay) and also make some additional changes like Use dedicated SSDs for the OS & VM disk storage instead of HDDs Create a RAIDZ2 pool as a backup to my TrueNAS data using zfs sync...

I have an existing Dell Optiplex 755 SFF Core2Duo E8200 8GB DDR2 RAM Intel NIC 80GB HDD This machine was serving as my Archlinux desktop for over a decade but recently the PSU conked out. I borrowed a PSU from a friend and made sure everything else is working. Is it worth spending $20 to get a...

I have a proxmox server that has 17 containers and 1 VM. I now have in my possession a HP T730 thin client with 32GB SSD and 4 GB RAM. Assuming I upgrade the m.2 SSD to 256 or 512GB and increase the RAM to 8 or 16GB, would it be better to have PBS installed on it and backup the containers or...

I currently have Proxmox 6.4 installed on a 1U server (Supermicro X9) with 4x500GB on RAID6 (hardware RAID). This runs 15 LXC containers and 1 PCOIP (Archlinux). This is a standalone node. No clusters/HA or anything of that sort. I want to move it another 2U server based on Supermicro X10...

I have multiple archlinux LXC containers and I updated one of them and I no longer had networking after a reboot of that container. I fired up a new container for debugging and updated the Archlinux packages and systemd was upgraded to 247. During investigation, I found that a bunch of systemd...

This has to be something that others must have encountered. I am losing my head trying to wrap the permissions. I have Nextcloud setup for myself in an unprivileged LXC container. The data directory for this install is on a FreeNAS server. The way I set it up in the host is as an NFS share...
