hdd

So I'm trying to mount two old HDD's which used to sit in my old Proxmox v3 node so I can extract some files that one VM had on it. The first HDD went fine, I used # kpartx -a /dev/MediaAux/vm-210-disk-1 to map it then I did # mount /dev/mapper/MediaAux-vm--210--disk--1p1 /mnt/oldnfs/ to mount...

So my purple western digital 2TB hard drive decided to die last week good thing I was able to still recover the data because I converted the thin volume(1.7TB of it) as an ext4 partition where I can store all my files, and the root fs took only less than 100GB where the boot partition resides ...

Hello, I'm trying out cloudinit to deploy our VMs and so far everything is working fine. I've followed the tutorial in the doc to create the template which worked fine. The template had a 3GB HDD (scsi0). I wanted to extend the disk of another VM and by accident I extended the disk of the...

Hi everyone, On my home server I'm trying to pass through a SATA HDD to a VM (Debian/Openmediavault) via a cheap 2-port PCIe SATA controller (ASM1062). I followed the PCI passthrough instructions on the wiki (https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Pci_passthrough). Now every time I start up the VM with...

Hello, fellow proxmox users, this is my first thread. I hope you guys are doing well in this pandemic. So I bought this Dell 720xd 2u 72tb+320gb server last month and decided to configure this week and chosen proxmox. I configured everything and added the raid 5 storage to the proxmox. Now I...

Hello, I'm new to proxmox and virtualization in general. Currently i have two containers running one of which I'd like to use as a NAS with ZFS and RAIDZ5. However I have run into a problem with disks. At first I assumed I should just try to pass the physical drives to the Nas Container for...

Hi guys, I am absolutely new to Proxmox and also have never installed/configured a virtualisation server for hosting several VMs. So, I heard and thought, Proxmox seems a good idea for that, especially, as I like Debian a lot. The system will be: Ryzen 7 3700X, 32 GB RAM, Gigabyte Mainboard, 1...
