Doing this all on the command line to create a VM on a Ceph storage. Hoping this is a simple fix. qm create ... qemu-img create rbd:Ceph/vm-998-disk-0 41G Formatting 'rbd:Ceph/vm-998-disk-0', fmt=raw size=44023414784 When I run the following command, I get this error: # qm disk import 998...

In looking through the forum posts, I see old posts with my answer but... I need to create a rather complex VM in Proxmox but from the command line. I see comments that say things like "Create the VM using the GUI then look at the logs for a qm create command". What "logs" are never mentioned...

I need to create a new VM (250+ actually) that uses Ceph storage. To create a disk on non-Ceph storage: echo "----- Creating the disk -----" qemu-img create -f qcow2 $DISK $STORAGE_SIZE How do I create a disk on Ceph storage?

Love "tldr" on all my linux machines, so figured I would install it on Proxmox VE, which is just Debian 11 after all. Doesn't seem to work, tldr pages aren't available root@red:~# apt install tldr...

Hi - I am trying to install / migrate VMs I have on an external disk and need to issue a few commands via the command line in order to migrate them over. I need CLI access to do so. Can I do it through the GUI or I need physical access to the Proxmox host? I cannot find how to access the CLI. Thx

I would like to automate the process of cloning/creating a VM. Can someone point me to some good reference material on CMDs that can be run. Also, when performing tasks in the GUI is there a place that shows the actual CMD issued?

Does the web-gui (6.2-11) produce some sort of "command log" for the (presumed?) commands it runs upon receiving a command from the web-based user? I'm a command-line oriented sysadmin, and I'd eventually like to be able to manage all things without the web gui, or at least using it minimally.

Hi, I would like to make a script to connect to the display of all my proxmox VMs within a command line. for now I can easily connect to my VMs using spice with a code like that: const data = await api.nodes.$(this.hostname).qemu.$(realVmid).spiceproxy.$post({proxy: await this.getIP()})...

Hey guys I have made a huge problem for myself and I don't know how to fix it.. it's giving me anxiety. Basically .. I blacklisted all the gpu drivers as you do when you try to passthrough the gpus but the problem is that I run Ryzen so I have no onboard graphics. Now usually this isn't a...

Hi Everyone, I'm completely new so this might be a really easy one for you. :-) When running commands such as 'qm list' from within the shell on the web interface, it returns a list of my VM's. But when running the exact same command logged in as root via putty/ssh, i get 'command not found'...

Greetings, my goal is to: create a qcow2 or raw image from the command line (I would prefer qcow2 anyway) without linking it to a new or existing VM; create a partition table and a file system in it; mount it, to access data (copy, sync, from a remote source) unmount the image when finished I...

So i just discovered the usefulness of the Spice Display adapter thing. And i want to set it up so That if someone downloads the spice viewer on their pc, they can put in spice://ip.address:_Port I was looking through the spice documentation and it says that i have to append a line to the Qemu...

Hello, is it possible to manage via command line vps hosted on differents cluster nodes ? Thanks!

Hi, in which file of proxmox I have to provide a new subscription key when I want to do this via command line?

Hello, Unable to retrieve data about the status of the machine, unfortunately no longer. The reason for this is that Proxmox version change. Before: root@prox:~# pvesh get /nodes/prox/lxc/101/status/current running root@prox:~# So I could get data with PHP but with the new version it has...

We've been playing around with automating the creation of VM's but hit a problem when it comes to those requiring uefi boot. Whilst its possible to create/assing a uefi boot disk using the GUI, theres no command line support? Is there no way to create/assign a uefi disk from the command line...

Hi dudes, We have updated our clusters to proxmox 4.4, anyone know what happened to vztop and vzps commands ? We could use them on proxmox 3.x. Already checked in Proxmox Changelog/Roadmap but nothing mentioned in them and google was unhelpful. Have they been replaced with new commands ? Thanks
