clone

For some reason, cloning a VM (on the same storage) takes really long all of a sudden. It used to take ~30 seconds or so to clone a ~16GB VM. Now, it suddenly takes >10 minutes. AFAIK nothing about the host was changed. Also, the cloning itself is still really fast (at least according to the job...

Hi, when I try to create a full clone from a virtual machine, I get a warning "" is there any way to bypass it? Is it possible for example in the configuration file to replace the type of disk from scsi to sata without data loss

Good day to all. Interested in information, if someone did this.

Hello, we have to migrate a rpool on a raidz, to smaller disks and asking for the best way. At the moment we use 2 x Crucial M550 1TB (953.9GB) disks and want to switch to 2 x Samsung 960 1TB (894.3GB). The Samsungs are slightly smaller, so we can't just replace them. The next problem is, that...

Hello, I am happily using LVM over iSCSI (file extents), however I have the need of creating a full clone of the drive (virtio0) over a NFS share. I can do this from the GUI with "move disk" and selecting the NFS share, w/out checking "delete source". This does create a .raw file which is a...

I have an ansible playbook that clones a debian template, sets some kernel arguments via qm command, boots the VM, and then is supposed to remove the kernel arguments, so they would only be used/seen on first boot. I based my method off of this excellent guide...

the gui only offers Full Clone for VMs on ceph volumes; ceph should be able to create linked clones fast and easy (as well as light snapshots, by the way). Full Clone creation doesn't seem to use ceph and thus extremely slow. PVE full clone was created in 43 minutes, while doing it in the...
