boot

Hallo, ich stelle gerade von einer UCS KVM auf Proxmox um. Eine der Maschinen hat keinen eigenen Kernel und wird über einen externen Kernel gestartet. <os> <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-1.1'>hvm</type> <kernel>/boot/vmlinuz-4.1.0-ucs190-amd64</kernel>...

Hi All, First time poster. I've been running a 3.4 install for several years now(24/7) - without any problems. It's a small NAS box running 4x2TB 3.5 Hard Drives in a Raid10 configuration(single zpool). I recently decided to upgrade drives 3 & 4 to 6tb drives. I had previously successfully...

Hello, I'm trying to enable PCI passthrough for two GPUs on our DELL PowerEdge R720. I followed the instructions on https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Pci_passthrough. After rebooting I landed in the "grub>" command line. I could recover the system by using a live CD and removing "intel_iommu=on" in...

The general consensus seems to be that reading and writing onto a USB often would wear down the flash drive quickly. However, I believe ESXi loads the hypervisor into memory on boot. What is stopping Proxmox from implementing a similar setup?

Occasionally we experience unplanned, spontaneous reboots on our Proxmox nodes installed on ZFS. The problem we are having is related to vzdump backups: if a reboot happens during an active vzdump backup that locks a VM, after reboot the locked guest will not start, and needs to be manually...

Hello, We have 8 proxmox machines in a cluster, four of them were installed with the 4.2 ISO and the other four were installed with the 4.4 ISO. We updated the 4.2 to 4.4 using the community updates. These four machines sv1n1 to sv1n4 are having issues booting up, the Emergency mode message...

Hi, guys! Can you help me please? After storage controller passthrough (like this post https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/raidcontroller-hp-p410-passthrough-probleme.30547/) I can't boot VM in Proxmox 3.4 (see screenshot https://cloud.openmailbox.org/index.php/s/hBnprLM1qcbFSbQ). I think it try...

I have created a dummy VM with Order=1, and Startup Delay = 60 so as to delay the start of VM2, which is set as Order = 2. (because VM2 won't start immediately Proxmox powers up, but does manually after a delay). Is there a better way? Is there a way of delaying the "Start all VMs and...

If I reboot proxmox, all nodes come up really fast as it should. But one Node need 10 Minutes before it begin to boot. I start the VM 105 and open the VNC-Viewer on it. Screen keeps Black for 10 Minutes. After 10 Minutes I see the Boot-Process starting in VNC. Why are there such a delay...

As of Proxmox 4.3, every VM has a custom Proxmox image that shows up on boot from the VM's console. Is there a way to customize that image?

Hey folks, I installed Proxmox today (downloaded yesterday). It was success full installed (ZFS) and created some vms. Everything was fine and reboot was all ok. Then I performed an update (without any errors). After this reboot, the system does no longer boot. To be precise, the server boots...

After looking around for suitable answers to this particular question I decided to put some of the advice to the test and figure out what the procedure would be in the event my boot drive (ssd) decided to pack it in. General consensus online and on these forums state that by simply backing up...

I set up a VM for 2k12r2. The disk is a sparse raw file, converted from a .vhdx snapshot taken with disk2vhd. The configuration of the system, with the disk connected to ide0 was as follows: agent: 1 balloon: 2048 boot: cd bootdisk: ide0 cores: 2 hotplug: usb ide0...

Hi, It is possible to install Proxmox 4.2 on a ZFS raid 1 on a two pendrives to get some redundancy? Obviusly is only a boot disk, VM resides on a shared storage SAN. If possible, what is the procedure on a disk fail? Greetings.

Hey, I've been searching for multiple hours to get this working and am slowly questioning me so I hope some of you may have a nice idea to get this fixed. Problem: I've reinstalled proxmox and only copied the images (.raw files). (since the system was fucked and I could only rescue those)...

Hi Guys, Need help setting up VM to start at boot but after quorum is reached. I often find VM does not start at boot due to quorum is not reached yet. I run 3 PVE 4.3 nodes in cluster with HA enabled for some VMs on top of GlusterFS, and non-HA VMs on top of ZFS RAID10, and 4x 10GbE LACP...
