I have a system where we came up short some space. Proxmox 7.0-8 I have 6x 800GB drives RAID Mirror which the VM has pretty much filled up but is ok for the VM just causes Proxmox issues. I would like to add 2x 1TB drives to allow proxmox to have space for updates and gives me a place to create...

Add new button to move file from VM1 to VM2 shell: mv /var/lib/vz/images/1/hd1.qcow /var/lib/vz/images/2/hd1.qcow

I was wondering, why the "discard" option at Hard Disk isn't set by default. Can that cause negative effects or why it's not set by default?

I did a fresh proxmox install on a new ssd. On installation it recognizes that there was a vg "pve" on an old hard disc and asked me to rename it to "pve--OLD..." , so I did. The new Proxmox Server comes up, and I see that it somehow recognizes both hard disks. But it doesn't show any of my...

Hello, I have an LXC which contains emby (4T of files) on an 8T hard drive in ZFS. I plan to change servers. Having no other storage medium as large, is it possible to physically move the hard drive to the other proxmox server and reassemble the LXC. Thank you, J Julian

Hi all, Extremely new to proxmox and have never really used Linux before. I've got two physical machines that I've put together in a cluster, although when configuring them I've accidentally put one on ZFS storage and one to whatever the default is. I've been able to setup vms on my server...

I have tested out Proxmox (most recent release) using nested virtualization and now want to test it on a physical node: a Dell R630 server which has a SATA and 2 SAS drives installed. I create a bootable iso on a USB drive (DD mode) and booted to this and then selected the option to install but...

Perhaps this is already old or known news for several people but I thought I should share this news, as I now that many people are using WD Red drives for data storage in Proxmox. I also know that it's mostly related to the consumer line, but still. As mentioned in the bug report from...

Hi there, I have a small home server with 5 hard drives. 4 of those just contain movies and since I just watch a couple of movies per week it would be ideal to shut the drives down when they are not in use. From what I read, the problem is pvestatd which spins the drives up right after they...

I recently learned that using a glusterfs storage backend requires the virtual hard disks to have some cache mode other than "No cache". Is there any way to overwrite the default PVE settings to ensure that every new hard disk is created with cache mode (i.e.) "Write through" instead of...
