All at the command line... I have to jump through these hoops because "qm create" has no way to target a specific host in a cluster. So I run "qm create 1001" on HOST1. Then I run "qm migrate 1001 HOST2" on HOST1. Then I run "qm destroy 1001" on HOST1 And I get this message: "Configuration...

Hello all. 98% out of the weeds here but can't cross the finish line. I have a 7 node cluster on proxmox ve and I had to do a ton of hardware upgrades (memory, os and ceph data ssd, nic card change) as well as configure redundant networking as I take this cluster into use soon. In the process I...

Hi there. I'm having problems with online migration of VMs between two hosts in a cluster. Both have local storages (lvm thin). If I try to start the migration via the GUI or without options from the command line, I consistently get the following error: 2024-01-24 12:35:10 starting migration...

I have encountered an issue with Proxmox High Availability (HA). The problem occurred when one of our servers went down, causing the VM to move to another server where HA is implemented. Now, when we tried to migrate it back to the original host/server using Proxmox, it did not proceed...

Hi all, I'm fairly new here, I've been using Proxmox for a while now and pretty much got it running as I'd like with multiple VMS over 2 nodes. I have one query which I can't seem to get an answer too. When I setup a VM, I may allocate it say, 500GB, it will only actually be using 100GB...

I'm not very used to Proxmox... But meeting the demands of my customers stating to undestanding it a bit. And I'm facing a problem that is almost like a chiken or egg matter. I will mention a hypothetical scenario here, but this is one that is very close to what I'm frequently seen on...

I am re-configuring my homelab from VMWare to Proxmox, and currently have one node (Node A) that has 10 disks passed through to a Truenas Scale vm for a ZFS pool, along with 5 vms migrated from another node (Node B), that has a fresh install of Proxmox 8. Given I am relatively new to Proxmox, I...
