This how-to-fix post to inform people on how Suricata crashes with OPNSense on Proxmox (any version) can be remediated. The advisories here may not be suitable for production environments, I trust you know this already. Context VM-hardware has Q35 chipset and uses virtio network interfaces...

After hours of messing with this situation it , most likely and probably, comes down to some awkward stuff going on This situation defies explanation as "the problem" seems to not only happen by itself but also by some unknown parameters. The end result is the Proxmox Web Interface loading then...

Dear, Happy with proxmox i do find myself in a sudden challenge of sorts. As I found some prior posts on this I share the experience here. This is most recent proxmox running with ZFS. I have no memory of changing anything when xterm.js console refused and only showed a message+spinner is it...

Hello, This request fpr help on keeping two vm synchronised between a proxmox server and a laptop VM is about the following situation. Curious to learn what you are thinking A VM is used on a laptop during off-net tasks, in order to have some redundancy it would be of interest to also have...

Hey I think i've outdone myself here. For an encrypted VM which had uncertain memory requirements i chose to work with changing CPU configuration, memory ballooning and hotplug, enabling 1GB pages for the CPU, NUMA Despit multiple reboots in multiple configurations this now fails to recognise...

Is there a way to not wipe the entire disk on installation ? I seek to preserve a pre installed microsoft windows partition and boot it as a VM. I've done this before using Qemu and have a specific requirement to do so. Br, JL

There is one ms windows vm which behaves quite peculiar. Changing the CPU away from anything kvm64 (> host) results in an inability to boot. Even a reboot into safe mode use msconfig does not work as per usual. Despite having configured a windows10 .iso to boot from the 'press any key to boot...

dear, Running an IDS VM i realised i only see broadcast and such. What is the preferrable way to create SPAN ports so the IDS VM can monitor all traffic on the virtual networks and physical interfaces ? I assume to monitor all traffic on the physical interfaces this is easy but VM to VM...

When i check 'disks' under 'storage view' it shows the nvme 1TB i have installed, next it it says usage ZFS. When i click on 'ZFS' just below 'disks' there is a single pool named rpool which does not include the 1TB nvme, i see no way how to add it to this pool. please assist

Recently added an extra NVME drive to the system, using ZFS. After adding it i'm lost as what is happening. ZFS appears to have 'absorbed' it but i cannot partition it. There appears no way to undo it etc. I've definitely done something wrong but cannot progress, any pointers ?

After being faced a few times with extraordinary memory consumption i took a look at the shell using glances. out of principle i never count on swap space and don't configure it since my use cases don't call for it. While the RAM assigned is correctly estimated proxmox/kvm decided to consume...

Spending time on GPU passthrough and seeing it evolve brought forward a topic of people running VM in passthrough with direct output to the screen attached to the GPU. Obviously, this had me wonder if it would be possible to have this one GPU output to multiple screens directly, this card has 1...

Dear, For all proxmox VM i simply configure the hostname and the DHCP service maps it to an FQDN so i can ping myhost.sub.sub.mydom.tld Except for the one container i'm running, that does not work at all, whatever i try. The only difference i notice is the dhcp client here is udhcpc but i've...

dear, for this setup i use a pf based firewall appliance also running unbound as dns and assuring dhcp leases are distributed and the local domain is resolved. For all VM the DNS works fine. Except for the one CT i'm using, there the hostname does not resolve for the domain. DNS lookups work...

After the prior post on FreeBSD (OPNSense and FreeNAS) failing to boot due to hotplug being enabled there remain issues. Both install just fine and boot just fine. It is only after a while they become unresponsive. I have yet to find an indication or metric to watch to understand what is going...

initially my experience with Proxmox 6 was rather disturbing, eventually i resolved what caused these issues and proxmox works well for me now. Recently (yeah) though i took on myself to install FreeNAS and OPNSense which are FreeBSD based and both behave "weird". The vm config i use can be...

Dear, Having found https://app.element.io/#/room/#proxmox:matrix.org which does use the official proxmox logo i wonder if it is in any way a viable and reliable alternate support channel ? Best Regards, Joris

Despite both the host and lxc having all sysctl keys for martians set to =0 the dmesg output for both host and lxc show repeat martian notifications followed by ll header ... I do not understand where these keep on comming from or how to investigate more in depth. Br, Joris

Hey, Looking to do some occassional gaming and other GPU intensive tasks on a VM (yes, you read that right) i wondered what is the best way to get maximum performance, hence minimum lag. At one point i had the GPU output on a monitor connected to the server, which was pretty neat. But i believe...

LXC with Debian-standard image for version 10.x is very slow to boot and also lost network. I see no way of troubleshooting
