feature request

Hello all, I am looking for something to sync my PBS datastore to something else than an remote PBS server , for example a share on a Synology NAS or share in Azure. Would it be possible to enable something in an upcoming release? Thank you and have a great day!

I noticed that a lot of the background tasks (if not all) open in a console-like window and the indication is not the best. It should be nice if the backend packs standardized info about task progress into the log - maybe in another pipe, or via special formatting. The idea is the front end to...

Currently, vm can only use noVNC as the default console viewer. I checked the source code and the xtermjs property of this component can be set, so is it possible to add the option of a default console viewer to the vm options (similar to what is configured in the datacenter). In...

Currently, at our university, we have a large standalone Ceph cluster that serves as storage for our virtual machines. We utilize this Ceph cluster for multiple purposes, including: Virtual Machine Storage, S3 Object Storage and CephFS for Samba. Overall, the performance is stable, and the...

Hello, Instead of using Proxmox’s default prefix of BC:24:11, I would like to use a MAC address pool provided by IEEE. In my environment, a full 24-bit OUI provides too large of a range and is expensive, so I prefer to purchase a 36-bit MA-S assignment. (see...

Scenario is this: I created a VM and accidentally didn't uncheck Backup? from the config on of a 3.2TB NAS. An attempted backup last nigh of all Guests meant that the whole backup storage filled up. Garbage collection says there is 900GB in a Pending state. I believe I have to now sit and wait...

Hi, it would be nice to be able to set the Async IO option (aio=) for cloud-init drives in the GUI. We are running a shared storage on a SAN LUN with OCFS2 and we know this is an unsupported setup. Since kernel 6.5 we need the aio=threads parameter for virtual disks. For normal vHDDs this can...

We run several Proxmox clusters and have found it quite cumbersome to determine which of the nodes in each cluster is the current and secondary router end points. We have to dig through the config everytime we do an upgrade to make sure we do them in the right order as the currently configured...

Hi everyone, As already mentioned in this thread, I would really like to see an option in Proxmox where I could use, for example, a USB stick where everything is stored on and at boot time, it gets loaded to a RAM disk, similar to how ESXi operates. An option for backward compatibility would...

Hello, I'm writing about a gap in capabilities regarding containerisation and container orchestration I believe is obvious and could be corrected fairly easily. To quickly explain my reasoning, I would like to compare docker to LXC containers briefly. while LXC containers are more flexible...

Hi, are there any plans to introduce a checkbox like the one for backups that excludes disks from snapshots? Or is detaching the disk still the current solution to this problem?

Hello, I have an up-to-date TrueNAS SCALE bare metal server running that I'm using to, among other things, store LXC templates and ISOs for Proxmox. I initially configured TrueNAS's NFS service to disable NFS v3, as I knew Proxmox supported v4.2 and that's what I wanted to use. However...

Reference post: LXC Restore - no space left on device The above post helped resolve an issue that I had in the past and someone else I know had today. The restore didnt work since the container volume was full and the only way to restore was to use the command line and add the --rootfs switch...

Hi, in addition to an email if a backup job fails I would like to use a hook script which sends a "ping" to healthchecks.io only if no error happened. But unfortunately I did not find a easy solution yet to determine the overall job information in the hook script. I would avoid parsing...

When creating container there is an option to enter root password or upload SSH public keys. That is very useful; what is inconvenient is that one needs to find their keys each time. What would be convenient if we had a way to set up "default" keys in advance in e.g. user profile, and then have...

Since OpenZFS 2.2 there are zfs zone/unzone commands that can allow a container to manage specific mounted datasets. It also requires dev/zfs to be mounted in container with device added to lxc config. This can be probably implemented with lxc hooks, but would be best to support natively like...

Hello, An feature very important for manage easily his VMs is the Folders. It's possible to add this feature in an next update please?

Hi Proxmox Forum, I have a two part request for a feature. 1) Report tools. This has to do with having an option under the server options so that I can print out an excel file, or similar method, showing me spikes in time of higher consumption of resources. This can also identify shutdowns...

Hi, it is very useful to just search for assigned IP-addresses than just for the VM-Name. Would it be possible to index all qemu-guest-agent information and then make it searchable?

I am writing to request enhancements to our Proxmox server management capabilities to streamline our operations and improve efficiency. Currently, we are managing multiple Proxmox servers in my homelab, and it would be incredibly beneficial for our workflow to be able to control these servers...
