ext4

Hi, I am wondering whether this is a correct usage of my hardware which runs PVE. I have a Dell PowerEdge R630, 2x HDDs, and 2 SSDs. From what I understand, ZFS is not recommended to run on hardware RAID. The controller (PERC H730 Mini) is currently set to HBA mode and I configured the Proxmox...

I'm moving from an ESXi to Proxmox setup. The ESXi server is still running and I'll be migrating VM's from that to the new Proxmox box. Existing ESXi has a large (16tb) drive that contains a lot of files that I will need to migrate to the new box. I have a 20tb drive for the new box plus an...

Hallo, ich habe gestern Proxmox auf meinem Server aufgesetzt. Es läuft auch super ich komme nur nicht an meine Daten im Raid. Gibt es eine Möglichkeit noch an die Daten zu kommen? Hab die Platten lange Zeit in OpenmediaVault benutzt. So sieht es im moment in Proxmox aus: und so in der...

Hallo community, ich bin neu in Proxmox-Welt ;-) Ich habe ein Frage zu Drives für VMs Store. Festplatte ist angehängt (Physische Raid). Mir geht es nur um Partitionieren und Formatieren. Welche FS ist die beste Wahl für VM Store? ext3,ext4 oder btrfs? Hat es Sinn ein swap Partition...

Recently my NAS (QNAP TS251) died, so I've been the last two weeks deciding how to replace it. I don't wan't another QNAP or similar (Synology). And also I am taking the opportunity to change other things at home, as for example extract multiple services from home assistant, run home assistant...

Hi guys! I currently do my backups to a NFS share on TrueNAS. But since the TrueNAS also sits in my home, I cloud sync it up to OneDrive from there. In the future I would like to switch to PBS instead, mostly just for fun of trying out new things. I have an unused i5 8th gen NUC and was...

I have a quick question I would like to reinstall Proxmox. I have backed up all VMs and LXC on a HW-HDD-RAID-10 which is formatted EXT4. I formatted and mounted the HW-HDD-RAID-10 via the Proxmox GUI. Proxmox itself is on an SSD-RAID-10 which I want to format and reinstall. But before I do...

I can't format my hard drive in proxmox. It gives an error (file attached below). The latest current version of the proxmox update has been installed. But when running in Windows 10 through the disk management partition, formatting in ntfs format works correctly. Files on the disk run without...

Hi everyone, I have an HP Elitedesk 800 G6 Mini running Proxmox 8.1. I have two external EXT4 SSD drives attached and assigned to my Ubuntu Server 23.04.3 VM. When attempting to transfer files between both drives on the VM, the VM will crash. A certain number of files will transfer before it...

Hi everyone, Happy new year :) I have begun to see a disturbing trend in both my Proxmox VE nodes, that the M2 disks are wearing out rather fast. Both nodes are identitical in the terms of hardware and configuration. 6.2.16-12-pve 2 x Samsung SSD 980 Pro 2TB (Only one in use on each node for...

Hallo, da ich in einem anderen Beitrag mitgeteilt bekommen habe, das ext4 Dateisystem die bessere Wahl ist, habe ich meine 4 TB NVMe in ext4 erstellt - jedoch wollte ich nun von einer VM einen Snapshot erstellen und musste feststellen, das es nicht geht. Kann es daran liegen, das ich kein ZFS...

Hi! I noticed that Proxmox lists CrateDB under success stories so I decided to give it a try. Then I created a few very basic VM's for testing (maybe with suboptimal configuration but still): 10 CPU cores (1 x 10, no NUMA), 50 GB RAM (balloon = 0) 2 IDE disks where one is system disk and...

Hi there! I'm not sure which format to use between EXT4, XFS, ZFS and BTRFS for my Proxmox installation, wanting something that once installed will perform well and hold up. I've heard that EXT4 and XFS are pretty similar (what's the difference between the two?). ZFS and BTRFS have some...

Hello, I am planning on reinstalling VE into raid1, however only thing left that is not backed up is a 4TB HDD, that is formatted as "directory disk", with data on it. The question is, however, how do I add/mount it into the new installation, without reformatting? I have backed up storage.conf...

Hi, I'm learning so bear with me. I have a single SSD which I want to use to store backups on. What are the pros and cons to use ZFS or ext4 on a single disk? I initially set it up with ZFS which seemed to work just fine however adds complexity for a newbie e.g. when I want to replace the disks...
