disk

Good day to whomever deem this thread worthy of guru knowledge! I am trying to bulk migrate my VMs from one old node to another. However, I do see the issue is that drive names are different. It is trying to migrate from local-lvm to local-lvm, however, the name of new storage is "Main-VMs". Is...

Guten Tag, ich habe mir eine 18 TB HDD gekauft und möchte diese auf eine VM weitergeben, was wäre dafür der beste Weg. Einen ZFS erstellen und das als Hard Disk auf die VM mounten? Mein Problem ist, das ich mir nicht sicher bin, ob das Effizient ist oder ob ich dabei Speicherplatz verliere...

Well, this is a little embarrasing. I was restoring my Plex VM after giving up on UEFI boot with Nvidia gpu and I have plenty of restoration points for the main boot disk. I restore the disk, and go into the hardware section to verify, and I see two unattached disks. One being my main media...

Hi, I'm not able to physically remove those hard disks so I wonder is there a way to remotely shut them down/spin them down till I'll need to use them again in few weeks/months? I'm already using pass-through in OMV VM that spins down one disk using APM (disk is used by Plex media server)...

SeaBIOS (version rel-1.16.2-0-gealb?a0?3390-prebuilt.qemu.org) Machine UUID ____________ error: attempt to read or write outside of disk 'hd0' Entering rescue mode... grub rescue> VM=Ubuntu This is my first Proxmox VM. What went wrong? I am using ZFS on a fresh install. Thanks

Hi Everyone, My sys had 2 disks 1 SSD 256 GB, and 1 HDD 1 TB, I have installed proxmox on SSD, and mounted HDD(proxmox/Disks/Directory) Even though my HDD have more space Proxmox UI shows this I followed this -> How to Add a Storage Drive to Proxmox (works with Proxmox 7)...

Following the upgrade to PVE8, I notice in the web UI two containers that show zero Disk IO. Prior to the upgrade, these displayed disk read/write stats. All other containers and VMs are displaying levels of disk IO as before. The two CTs concerned are both unpriviledged Debian 11 containers...

I'm a bit confused regarding "Disk IO" graph (per VM) in Proxmox. The different thread where this topic is discussed concludes that: which indicates to me that it's a total amount of data written/read in a particular window of time. So, from what I understand, it's a total written/read and not...

Good day. I would like to mount a partition (ext4) with data under the LXC container (alpine). Despite the visibility of the partition under the lsblk command, it does not exist in /dev Under "node" you can mount the data without any problem. Any suggestions on how to solve the problem...

OK so first up i'm sorry for asking this again, i know there are a lot of other threads like this but i can't really make up my mind for the best solution. I literally finished this build yesterday and set up some basic VMs and CTs already on the nvme drive, i also plan to buy another 16gb ram...

I have 8 disks attached to a Supermicro Backplane (SAS2 EL2 dual expander) which attaches to an HBA. When I boot into proxmox all the disks that are on the HBA are duplicated (none of the other disks are). I've tried searching online but haven't found much. I also tried just booting into a...

i found my mistake and now i dont know how delete it sorry

To verify backup images, I have to run this in the CLI zstdcat /var/lib/vz/dump/vzdump-qemu-100-2023_05_02-21_36_38.vma.zst | vma verify -v - Would be very helpful if it can be from the GUI as well.

This one feels like a bit of a bug to me. 1. I have 2 ZFS pools, rpool and vpool 2. When I restore a VM, PVE likes to restore to rpool by default, so a VM disk gets created, e.g. vm-100-disk-0 under rpool's VM Disks 3. So I stop it and restore again to vpool, however the disk in rpool still...

Hello, We currently run our PVE Cluster on HPE DL380 G9 Servers. Recently we migrated over from VMware. In VMWare we could push / run disk identification via the GUI or shell that would activate the blue identification LED on the physical drive. Anyone know of a way to do that in PVE? We...

I am new to Proxmox and I have moderate experience with Linux environment. I am trying to convert a physical hard drive (attached to the PVE machine) to an image to add it to my Windows VM. I ran the following command: root@pve:/dev/pve# dd if=/dev/sdb of=driveImage.img bs=1M status=progress...

Hello Everyone. We received excellent feedback from the previous storage performance investigations, particularly the technotes on optimal disk configuration settings (i.e., aio native, io_uring, and iothreads) and the deep dive into optimizing guest storage latency. Several community members...

Hello, for a long time (personal home lab, machine from 2016, I don't know how long the problem exist, I just ignored it until now), I have the problem, that one single VM on my system is able to let the load explode to >40 and let other VMs crash. Just with disk operations. I used fio to test...

Is it possible to somehow see the overall disk load, for example, how it is done in Vmware ESXi?

Problem: Currently, we're unable to get an overview in Proxmox about the virtual disk usage. You will only get the total disk size (200GB), on the VM overview page: Even... when going to the storage location and click on "VM DIsks", it will only give me the total size: Solution: When I'm...
