lvm-thin

Greetings! We have just installed this amazing VE. Still running without any serious problems but a few. We use lvm-thin storage for the vm in question and need to reduce one of it's disk down in size. Initially disk was about 480Gb in size. First we cut the filesystem inside a vm. Next...

Hi Guys, on my Proxmox 5 I have to create several Windows 7/10 Virtual Machines. My server has an hardware RAID Controller Card (1 GB RAM with battery) and 4 SATA Disks attached to it. I would create the VMs with the following parameters: -Hard Disk Bus/Device: SCSI -target storage: LVM-thin...

Hi Our Server has 4 no's of 10TB HDD and with RAID1 so 2 drives My question is about creating the Storage for the VMs, i have installed Proxmox in drive 1, which has local and local-lvm storage where local is given 100GB and 9.9TB for the local-lvm, where we keep VM's right now. i need to add...

Hallo, im Zusammenhang mit einem Upgrade von Proxmox VE von Ver. 3.4.11 nach 4.4-13 haben wir zwei Effekte beobachtet, die uns im Hinblick auf die Stabilität bzw. Integrität der Gastsysteme etwas beunruhigt. Hardware: HP Proliant, 2 x Xeon E5-2620, 64 GB RAM, RAID 5 Gastsysteme: Linux-Server...

(I'm sorry if this is out of scope of this forum, but I hope some experts here might be able to help me) I'm having a problem with LVM Thin Pool and Volume. After the metadata full and my attempt to extend it, the thin pool and lv data are now all at 0% Here is the step of what happened: My...

We had a major issue today with a server which had some too many containers running over an lvm thin partition. Two of them had a log issue and the whole system collapsed with I/O errors we assume because the thin pool got too full. On restart only a couple of containers were working. We...

Hi there, I need to setup a pair of Proxmox servers. I think I'm not using full HA, because I don't know yet if I'm having shared storage. So by now I'll think that both servers will have independent Proxmox instance. The problem I have with my current VMs is that they get stuck while doing...

Hello, I'm new with proxmox , i have an LVM Storage and i want to migrate to LVM-Thin without losing my machines , is there any option ? My storage is /dev/hd2 which is 1.8 T.Byte and i'm using 500GB . Have you any idea about how to migrate without losing my data ? Because it's in production...

Hello, I'm trying to migrate my existing KVM images to Proxmox KVM virtual machine. I have to do that for my existing LXC containers. The storage i prefer to use is LVM thin pool, because this storage support live snapshot of all types of VM's - KVM or LXC based. For the migration purpose i'm...

Good morning, I cannot destry a CT. I receive message: "TASK ERROR: lvremove 'vmdata/vm-111-disk-1' error: Logical volume vmdata/vm-111-disk-1 contains a filesystem in use." Even from console: lvremove -f /dev/vmdata/vm-111-disk-1 Logical volume vmdata/vm-111-disk-1 contains a filesystem...

On a brand new install of 4.2, I created a thin volume in the "pve/data" pool that was created automatically. I then created a new container and assigned the new thin volume as the root storage. However, in the GUI, I see the disk image under both the new lvm-thin volume and the "local-lvm"...

i setup new node with 4.2, i noted that storage have local in type lvm and local-lvm in type lvm-thin. Now i need to upgrade another machine from 4.1 to 4.2 my storage change during upgrade?? how the real advantage to user lvm-thin now? possible migrate lvm in lvm-thin with data in lvm...

after this night all vms on one of our proxmox srevers are down and it seems that the lvm-thin has problems. lvs prints a lot of warnings: in the syslog there seems one harddisk out of these mirror raids to be defect: how can i get a backup out of these machines?

we have three nodes in a cluster all are using nfs shared storage but for io intense vms we use local ssd mirror raids as a faster storage. but what to do if i want to migrate a vm from one local ssd lvm-thin storage to another node without having to move the storage to the nfs before this? is...

if i create a new thin pool named "1tb_thin" i can't create a new data pool within that through the webinterface cause it claims "illegal characters" I think this is wrong on your side - but i'm not sure... - for now i'll recreate this LV with another name without the underscore... ;-)

We are currently migrating one server to 4.2 and LXC and after looking at various threads I still don't have 100% clear what the new use of LVM-thin involves as far as previous storage model. We mainly use containers with many bind mounts we've now migrated to LXC contents. We maintain LVM...

Hi, Got a question re LVM-Thin on Proxmox 4.2.New and not very experienced Linux user here -just got my head around the whole LVM thinggy :) (is was easier on Windows for me). Anyway I want to create a new LVM-thin with 2 SSDs I have. Then I want to store everything on this newly created...
