Hi everyone, I have a Proxmox setup which automatically imports the default created ZFS root pool and makes it available as /rpool. That works because a cachefile is used and there's a systemd service importing all pools part of that cachefile. Though, I have one additional pool which I would...

Hi. I've just updated my Proxmox backup server via the gui and I got an issue in the end. I haven't restarted yet, since this reminds me on my pve server that didn't come up again after a regular update. So the question is: What do I have to do to fix this? Here's the output of my console...

Hello, I've come to you because I've had a power cut on my DL360p Gen8 machine, and when I try to start it up I get the error “Non-System disk or disk error” (see photo). The previous version installed of Proxmox was the 8.2. I've tried everything, already checked elsewhere, and unfortunately...

I have built a 6.10 kernel using clang (with .config from generic ubuntu) on Ubuntu 24.04. I am able to run it on Ubuntu but not on Proxmox. On Proxmox, I get following error: Alert! /dev/mapper/pve-root does not exist. Dropping to shell Running lvm pvscan returns nothin, and adding...

A very minor issue but one I'm hoping there's an easy fix for. In brief, I made the mistake of running zpool upgrade a while back which of course borked my system rendering it unbootable. Thankfully, I found the specific page that describes how to fix it and managed to unbork things so that the...

I have a single node install with PVE 8.2.4 and ZFS Mirror as boot drive. I was doing apt update and was suggested to do a apt --fix-broken install. I ran that and got this: root@pve:~# apt --fix-broken install Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state...

Hello everyone, I installed proxmox on my intel system with an Nvidia gpu. I configured the system, so the gpu could be used by one of my VMs. It worked just fine but I decided to upgrade to an AMD ryzen 7 5700x cpu instead of the intel i5 11400. The mainboard used to be a Gigabyte B560M DS3H...

Hi, sadly, the Proxmox Kernels (6.8.8-3-pve,6.5.13-5-pve) all stuck at "Loading initial ramdisk". The Debian amd64 kernels (6.1.0-23-amd64) work just fine and asks for the LUKS passphrase. HW: - CPU: AMD Epyc 4584PX - MB: MSI D3051 What I did: I installed Debian bookworm with LVM + LUKS...

one of my Ceph cluster nodes is stuck at boot (screenshot uploaded) after a power outage, the server can boot into recovery mode and I have access to the terminal, but I am not sure why it is not booting in the normal mode. Any idea what might be causing this? Let me know if there are some logs...

Hello, I recently installed Proxmox on a USB 3.2 Gen 2 stick (Kingston DataTraveler Max). The USB is rated for 1000/900 MB/s. I noticed that booting off the USB takes a long time to fully load the kernel and the initrd. Loading the kernel takes about a minute and "Loading initial ramdisk ..."...

Hello fellow server admins, I have a proxmox hypervisor for my VMs and the file system is raidz1. Today I was wondering if I could install an nvidia card and run 3D Applications so I found a promising tutorial about gpu passthrough here...

Hello, Since kernel version 6.8 became available, I've been having problems with APT. In particular, I can't update my kernel and I'm having trouble installing various packages. My proxmox is installed on the basis of a Debian 12 with the current kernel version 6.5.13-5-pve with secure-boot...

Hi, as mentioned in the title, I am running in issue when there is something wrong with my vm-storage zfs pool I just decided to move the pool from an NFS share on truenas (virtualized) to native proxmox zfs, but yesterday when I was trying to move the VM disks from the original source to the...

Hello, we are facing a very peculiar issue with Proxmox. We have these servers Intel SCL1530CLR from ~2006 (with two Intel Xeon E5420 cpus, 8GB DDR2 and S5000VCL motherboard ). We have been trying to install Proxmox VE into them for a project, but every time we open the installer there is a...

Freezes on loading after update. How fixit?

Each startup in the BIOS overwrites the boot priority. The entry with the name proxmox does not work, but UEFI OS works, but after launch the proxmox entry becomes the first one again. Of course, I save the settings, but after a successful launch the first one again becomes Proxmox entry

Good day, forum member! I have an bit of an interesting challenge to instrument using ProxMox. My storage is all sitting on iSCSI cluster and I wanted to condition the startup of VMs on the reachability of the said iSCSI cluster, using very simple logic here: do not start the VM(s) until iSCSI...

Ich habe einen DL380p Gen8 HP Server mit einer H220 HBA Karte verbaut, da ich meine Festplatten direkt ins Betriebssystem durchreichen möchte. Das installieren von Proxmox im zfs RAID 1 funktioniert ohne Probleme. Es werden auch alle Festplatten erkannt, jedoch wenn ich den Server anschließend...

Hi all, I've been trying to deploy machines via the Proxmox VE API by cloning an existing template and configuring it with cloud-init. Sometimes this works, however most times my VMs either get stuck in a bootloop or get stuck in initramfs: Bootloop: Initramfs: ALERT! UUID=<UUID> does not...

Hi, Why is the systemd boot not set as default ? I see these entries : root@pve1:~# grep 'menuentry ' /boot/grub/grub.cfg | cut -f 2 -d "'" | nl -v 0 0 Proxmox VE GNU/Linux 1 Proxmox VE GNU/Linux, with Linux 6.5.11-8-pve 2 Proxmox VE GNU/Linux, with Linux 6.5.11-8-pve...
