Occasion: Like my one mentioned in the zfs boot thread my intention was to use BTRFS as root filesystem because the resource finger print is smaller and BTRFS is mostly faster than ZFS (Source: actual phronix performance test). While my testing time for this thread some negative experiences with...

Good evening,, I’m currently setting up an older but still very solid server as a modern Proxmox system, and I’ve run into a boot issue related to ZFS on legacy BIOS hardware. My Server Setup Supermicro X8DT3 (no UEFI, legacy BIOS only) Dual Xeon 55xx CPUs 48 GB ECC RAM Dell PERC H200 (LSI...

Occasion: Actually, my one wanne build such a boot environment on BTRFS Raid1 because of my experience with timeshift in the desktop field, but while my experimentation the question comes up, of course, is this possible with zfs. And when one research the web for zfs snapshot boot menu solution...

Hi all, I get open-iscsi-service failed to start on booting one of my nodes after upgrading to Proxmox 9.0.10 (6.14.11-3-pve) via GUI from 6.14.11-2-pve. Has anyone seen the same, just wanted to check before upgrading any of the other nodes and try finding the error. Thanks, Andreas

Hello I'm making this post to report an issue, there is a workaround and it is not really blocking, but could be annoying for someone, and it made me lose a few hours to "fix". a fresh installation of PVE9 on a test machine, iso 9.0.1 (and also upgraded to 9.0.4 with the no subscription repo...

Hello everyone! I wanted to share my story so that I hope nobody will have to endure what i had to. I recently upgraded my Proxmox server from version 8 to 9. Running the command pve8to9I understood that i needed to uninstall systemd-boot and install grub-efi-amd64, and so I did, and continued...

Hello, After recent debian 13.1 update in my LXCs, not a single one starts after it is powered off or rebooted It fails with this error when manually started: run_buffer: 571 Script exited with status 25 lxc_init: 845 Failed to run lxc.hook.pre-start for container "1000" __lxc_start: 2034...

I've had my Proxmox server set up for months now, it runs on an R5 3600 with 64gb 2933mhz ram on a B450M Gaming. It runs my Truenas array with a passthroughed HBA, and a Pterodactyl server on Ubuntu. I had just finished installing Proxmox on my second computer, and created a cluster through the...

I'm trying to start my server that I just upgraded from 8 to 9. When I turn it on, it takes some time to show a white rectangle for a milisecond on the top left corner of the screen and shuts down, and restarts to the BIOS. After that, whatever I do, I can't get it to go past that state. I've...

Hello, I performed the upgrade from PVE 8.4.9 to 9.0.3 yesterday without any error during the Debian 12 > 13 upgrade by following the documentation. However, since I rebooted, I'm stuck in the "Welcome grub" step during around 0.5 seconds and then the machine reboots immediately and goes in...

I have a case or two with "slow" storage imports causing VM start failures. In my case big"ish" ZFS pools takes quite a time to "settle" before the VM can start, so a reboot has the VM fail to start and needs manual starting. Anybody else having similar issues? The current solution I have, is...

I have a peculiar issue when my headless PBS boots. I do not run the PBS 24x7 as I only need to backup/verify data in small time windows, so I use a vzdump-hook script on my PVE to startup and shutdown my PBS when needed. If I have a monitor connected the PBS boots without issue. If I have a...

Hi all, I am migrating a VMware vSphere environment to PVE (latest version) with 3 nodes and ME4024 as iSCSI storage with multipath. I have some problems with several ubuntu machines. If I try to import them with the tool from GUI, the VM is correctly imported, but on startup it crashes like...

Hi everyone, I've seen a couple of posts around regarding this after the 8.4 upgrade this week and thought it was worth making a separate post to draw better attention: Previously there was a hack-around out in the wild which was (at least) being used to boot up macOS install media; in this...

Good day to everyone, I went to go update one of my proxmox servers through the GUI today and got this msg. "Starting system upgrade: apt-get dist-upgrade E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. System not fully up to date (found 30 new...

Hallo zusammen, ich habe ein Proxmox Cluster (v8.3.3) mit drei Nodes. Auf diesem Cluster läuft auch ein Ceph Cluster (v19.2.0). Jede Node hat eine eigene SSD, die als OSD im Cluster eingebunden ist. Und daraus habe ich einen Pool für VMs erstellt. Auf Node1 habe ich eine VM (Ubuntu 24) erstellt...

Since I was used to Truenas and other installations having a pretty robust host backup mechanism that doesn't require routine full HD images, I installed PVE on a 500Gb mirrored boot-pool. I've learned that restoring a PVE host configuration is somewhat cumbersome and rough. I have a cron job...

On my system with a working instance of proxmox, I was trying to test something by installing a new instance on a secondary drive. I wasn't paying enough attention to reallize that the old system wasn't going to boot by itself anymore, since it is now renamed from pve to pve-old-(something). Is...
