    Possible to bind mount PVE "/var/logs" as read-only inside LXC?

    I'm looking to setup a light SIEM in my homelab, well it's more just an "observability" setup really. I'm planning to put both logs and metrics into this across a variety of systems. I know I can export metrics via the native influxdb/graphite options but there's no built-in way to export logs...

    Message size exceeded and Tracking Center

    IME messages that exceed the postfix maximum message size are rejected and logged but the events do not appear in the Tracking Center. I think it would be helpful if they did.

    [SOLVED] Can you perform an action without a log entry appearing in the cluster log?

    So I recently made a cron job that, every 6 hours, would take a snapshot of every VM (just to have faster and up-to-date backups to protect against user error). Everything is flawless and I have yet to encounter any issues. BUT there is one hiccup that is getting rather annoying: the cluster...

    ZEDhook

    Hey there fellow Proxmoxers, I've coded a little program that you might find useful. It was inspired by the trouble I was having getting any of the mail programs to work for logging ZFS errors as reported by ZED, which comes by default with Proxmox.
