    Sync log only partially shown in GUI

    So I have a PBS running onsite and another one remotely that is syncing the local PBS's data for additional safety. In the remote PBS' GUI I can see the running sync job's log but while the job has been running for 1 day and three hours, the log shown only spans less than one hour. Is there a...

    setting up NVidia vGPU is driving me mad

    I am trying to set up an Nvidia vGPU for AI workloads and I am following this guide: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/NVIDIA_vGPU_on_Proxmox_VE_7.x# My card is an RTX A5000. I obtained the NVidia grid host driver (535.129) and installed it on the PVE host. I activated SR-IOV and now have several...

    Ceph ghost OSDs in configuration database?

    Hi, I have a three node home lab PVE + Ceph cluster. Recently, I replaced one node with another server. While I removed the old node from the PVE cluster config, I missed removing the OSDs from Ceph first. So for a while they were shown (toghether with the old node ("bucket")) as down...

    nVIDIA vGPU mdev setup not working (as per wiki)

    Hi, I am trying to set up a NVIDIA A5000 as vGPU as per this wiki article: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/NVIDIA_vGPU_on_Proxmox_VE_7.x Got to the point where I enabled SRIOV and can list the virtual functions via lspci. But then it says under guest configuration that I should pick an mdev in...

    24 Scrub Errors, 3pgs inconsistent

    Hi, On my 3 node home lab cluster, Ceph tells me that it has discovered 24 scrub errors and that 3 pgs are inconsistent. That does not sound overly promising. More importantly, however, I have no idea what to do with this information... I take it that the nature of this error prevents Ceph...

    Help configuring vGPU?

    Hi, I am trying to get vGPU to work by following this guide: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/NVIDIA_vGPU_on_Proxmox_VE_7.x#cite_ref-3 My card is an RTX A5000, the same as used in the guide, so should work. I went through with the setup but it doesn't work. lspci -d 10de: results in a very short...

    Trying to understand nVidia vGPU

    Hi, so far, I have only used PCIe passthrough to assin a single graphics card to a single VM - that works well as long as the CPU supports IOMMU, which isn't the case with my budget Xeon E3-12xx servers. But I understand there is now another way: vGPU where I can assign (parts of) the same GPU...

    rbd error: rbd: listing images failed: (2) No such file or directory (500)

    Hi, I have a three node PVE cluster with Ceph with (currently) three pools. This is about one of them. When I click in the GUI on one of the pools and want to view the VM Disks or CT Volumes, I just get the error message "rbd error: rbd: listing images failed: (2) No such file or directory...

    Mailcow + PMG make sense?

    Hi, I am running a Mailcow instance in a VM on my cluster and it is going great. But, me being me and my cluster being a home lab and no commercial operation, I am always trying out new things, playing around. Now I am wondering whether there would be any benefit in setting up a Proxmox Mail...

    High iodelay on one of three identical nodes

    Hi, I have a three node PVE cluster with identical nodes. Each node has an SSD that is part of a Ceph pool (I know, I should have more SSDs in the pool). And each node also has two HDDs that are part of another Ceph pool. I replaced the three enterprise grade SSDs with three other, larger...

    [SOLVED] PBS Metrics?

    Hi, I just installed a Grafana Influx stack and enabled PVE metrics logging to it. Now I'm trying to find similar functionality in PBS -- is there? Thanks!

    Why are my synced encrypted backups not encrypted???????????

    So I have a local PBS running, backing up my PVE cluster. Backups are encrypted. And I have another PBS running offsite, syncing the backups from my local PBS for safekeeping. The same backups are not encrypted at the other PBS. Why? What do I need to do to keep my encrypted backups the way I...

    Tape clean: TASK ERROR: unload drive failed - Not Ready, Additional sense: Cleaning cartridge installed

    Hi, I was able to purchase a small tape library for my home lab to use with my PBS. So far it has been working flawlessly. But today, I thought it a good idea to clean the drive. So I imported a cleaning cartridge, unloaded the current tape from the drive and clicked on Clean Drive in the PBS...

    Ceph: Balancing disk space unequally!?!?!?!

    Hi, I have a three node PVE cluster in which each node is also a Ceph node. Each Ceph node used to have one identical HDD and the pool was getting full. Therefore, and because one is supposed to have more OSDs anyway, I added one additional identical HDD OSD per node. Ceph rebalanced between...

    [SOLVED] Anyone else having issues shutting down Turnkey Linux appliances from PVE host?

    I noticed recently that a few of my VMs won't shutdown (the request times out) when I give the signal on the PVE host (or when this is triggered by, say, a backup run). I am using qemu-guest-agent in all my VMs. Those VMs that don't shutdown seem to have in common that they are Turnkey Linux...

    Ceph node without OSDs?

    Hi, I have a three node home lab PVE cluster. Each node is also a CEPH node and has two OSDs (one being assigned to a "fast" pool for apps and one being assigned to a "slow" pool for data) (I know that's fewer than recommended and I am contemplating adding more OSDs but this is a home lab...)...

    Even no of PVE nodes?

    Hi, I have a three node home lab cluster. The reason I set it up like this is that it is recommended to have an uneven number of nodes in order to avoid a split-brain situation when one of the nodes fails. After having used PVE for a while now, it is dawning on me that this is only relevant...

    Deleted many GBs from datastore but only freed a few MBs!?!?!?!?!

    Hi, I have a PBS running that became full. Pruning didn't help because the garbage collection couldn't successfully complete due to unavailability of enough disk space. So I decided to manually remove backups that I no longer need (removed the entire backup for each obsolete VM, not just...

    I still don't get Ceph...

    Hi, I have this little three node PVE/Ceph cluster. And due to performance issues I got around to swap my Ceph OSD SSDs once again. I outed one OSD in one of the nodes and it Ceph started rebalancing/remapping/backfilling (as expected). After rebalancing/remaping/backfilling was done, I...

    Cluster getting really ssssllllloooooowwwwww :-(((((((((((((((((((((((((

    Hi, I have s small 3 node PVE cluster including Ceph with 10GBE for each corosync and Ceph. I used to have one OSD (NVME) in each node. Everything was nice and fast. Then I replaced each NVME with two SSDs (as you are not supposed to have so few OSD and each OSD was already beyond the maximum...
