filesystem

I have just done a fresh Proxmox installation, and then installed a single VM (Home Assisant using this install script). My fdisk -l output shows the following error message with regards to the new vm-100-disk-1 partition (which is part of the data LV thin pool): The backup GPT table is...

I want to set up a Proxmox server with 1TB M.2 SATA system storage, 4 TB SATA SSD + 12 TB USB HDD as NAS storage and 18 TB USB HDD as Backup Storage. I will use it as NAS (OpenMediaVault?) and Home Server (nextcloud, home assistent, Adguard, plex, influx, grafana, vpn?, firewall? …) at the same...

Hi everyone, Proxmox newbie here. I got a few questions regarding vm disk management. Context: The main usage for my PVE, in a home environment, is mainly to host a file server and a multimedia server (DNLA-like), plus a few other small VMs for testing and playing around. The PVE has the...

Hallo Zusammen, ich habe das Ganze schonmal ganz kurz in einem anderen Beitrag im Forum angesprochen bei @LnxBil (vielleicht meldet er sich ja auch nochmal :)) aber da es dort thematisch nicht reinpasst mach ich jetzt mal ein eigenes Thema dafür auf. Es geht um folgendes, ich habe meine Proxmox...

Hello everybody, I need an help to choose the right file system for a new testing cluster. I am going to install proxmox on 3 mini pc (1 nvme with standard ddr4 memory). This cluster will run mainly some vm to learn kubernates (rke2 and longhorn) and, since - at least at the beginning - I will...

Hey allerseits! Ich bin noch etwas neu bei der Sache, und dementsprechend manchmal etwas überfordert wenn es um das ein oder andere Thema geht, als kleiner disclaimer. Nachdem darauf verwiesen wird, dass man eher VMs anstatt LXCs für docker container benutzen soll, würde ich gerne eine CouchDB...

I have a 64GB RAM system with 16TB in a RAID HHD storage, so with 8TB used. The OS and VM/CTs are all in a 2TB SSD drive. Proxmox is set-up to use ZFS and I've noticed that my system has been peaking the memory usage, even though individually the services don't even use 25%. I've also noticed...

I have a 240GB SSD drive which is connected via USB. After plugging it in, the drive initally shows up correctly in lsblk and fdisk -l, and I am able to mount it without problem on the Proxmox host. The problem is that the drive seems to disappear from the host after a couple of days, and this...

Hallo, ich habe mir leider meinen Proxmox Server beim rumprobieren zerschossen. Daher musste ich Proxmox leider neu installieren. Glücklicherweise, waren alle wichtigen Daten auf einer zweiten Festplatte die in das System ein gebunden war. Auf der SSD hatten drei VMs einen zusätzlichen...

Hi Foks, I know this is a common asked question but yet I am trying to see what would be the best option for my config. I just got a computer and have enough CPU and Ram to run a decent home lab. The storage available is as follow: One SSD 480 GB where I will install the OS Two 2TB SSD for...

Wasn't the case in the past, but is it possible these days to install Proxmox directly (not on top of Debian) without committing the entire physical disk to that filesystem (as I recall, had to be ZFS)? TIA

Hello, I am digging up a old subject : Deleting properly a FileSystem. I know that there is a very similar subjet here but the solution is for a Datastore not for a FS. I am unable to recreate a FS with the same name of a FS that I have previously deleted. Here is the full procedure : # List...

Hello, I have a VM with too much space allocated and am trying to shrink it's disk from 200G to 100G. Filesystem of VM is BTRFS and of Proxmox ZFS. Steps I've done: 1) Boot into gparted and resize the btrfs partition from almost 200G to 95G (used partition space does not exceed 100G) 2)...

I did a really dumb mistake due to my lack of experience I was trying to remove cifs from hetzner there causing problems. By mistake, I ran this code root@z1 /mnt # mount -f -a /mnt/pve/Google my df went from this df: /mnt/pve/Google: Host is down df: /mnt/pve/Test: Host is down df...

In an up to date Proxmox install, I have root on RAID1. There is another partition on ZFS, which has two VMs. There is some free space in a deleted partition adjacent to partition 5, the ZFS partition (BTW across sda/sdb/sdc/sde), where partition 4 used to be. I am trying to get partition 5 to...

Hi there. I got a problem with a node on my cluster. Here is the conf: Proxmox 7.1 . I tries to remove a lvm-thin provisionning via Datacenter Webui interface. I rebooted one of the nodes where the lvm thin is and i got a read-only filesystem. the system is installed like this ...

Proxmox is using a ZFS raid1 storage. On there, a disk has been created for a VM. This disk is currently formatted as ext4. Does that make sense? I guess its up to me. I'm just double checking. I might format the disk to ZFS, since it has the ability to check integrity.

I have Home Assistant and Ubuntu 20.04 running in virtual machines and every day I come home to find the console flooded with these messages. I ran a SMART test on my SSD and it came back clean with no errors. Sometimes when I reboot the VM it starts back up fine, other times I have to run fsck...

Dear Proxmox Community I recently started renting a dedicated server. The Provider allows for automized installation of Proxmox VE 6, which I've chosen. The server has 2 SSD's of 74.5G and an additional HDD available. However, the installation was done (as to be expected) on a single drive...
