migrate

I was doing some server maintenance today and migrating some containers/VMs and twice I ran into issues with migration due to the following error: TASK ERROR: can't lock file '/var/lock/pve-manager/pve-migrate-xxx' - got timeout This happened with 2 different servers and 2 different...

Hello, we had evaluated proxmox in development for a while. We have proxmox 5.4 on server, which we would like to "delete". We have obtained new HW and installed clean proxmox 7.1. We would like to migrate some VM machines from former hw to new one. Is there any easy/stright-forward solution...

I'm trying to migrate VM storage to Linstor SDS and have some odd troubles. All nodes are running PVE 7.1: pve-manager/7.1-5/6fe299a0 (running kernel: 5.13.19-1-pve) Linstor storage is, for now, on one host. When I create new VM on linstor it works. When I try to migrate VM from another host...

Hello, We have automatic VM migration configured, VM automatic migration works but after migration VM not starting at all it keeps starting all time. Manual migration stop start works but auto no. All info in attached file, Thank you

What’s the expected behavior here? I have a 3-node cluster with dedicated physical corosync network, and a 2nd faster network for storage and networking. The corosync network is configured to failover to the fast network if interrupted. High availability is configured on guests with shared...

Hey all, I run a standalone Proxmox server which I have been upgrading in place for years. I am currently on 6.x, not having upgraded to 7 yet. It was a clean install on Proxmox 4.2 I believe. When i initially installed it, I set it up to boot from a ZFS mirror of two SATA SSD's using...

Since I needed to document the process anyway I thought I share my experience of migrating a domain controller from a hyper-v cluster to a proxmox cluster with ceph storage. I wrote this with these 2 wiki articles as background information...

The usual failure looks like: ... 2021-08-03 15:24:47 migration active, transferred 32.6 GiB of 32.0 GiB VM-state, 120.2 MiB/s 2021-08-03 15:24:48 migration active, transferred 32.7 GiB of 32.0 GiB VM-state, 117.0 MiB/s 2021-08-03 15:24:49 migration active, transferred 32.8 GiB of 32.0 GiB...

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...

Hi So you need to move to the last version and you get the chills because it is such a huge jump in versions. Worry no more it is quite simple!!!!!! Just make regular backup of you VMs Using ssh for instance with Filezilla, copy the backup files (just need the last backup of each) to your...

Hi 2 all! I have a problem, Proxmox Cant remove image after migration. pveversion -v proxmox-ve: 6.2-2 (running kernel: 5.4.65-1-pve) pve-manager: 6.2-15 (running version: 6.2-15/48bd51b6) pve-kernel-5.4: 6.2-7 pve-kernel-helper: 6.2-7 pve-kernel-5.3: 6.1-6 pve-kernel-5.0: 6.0-11...

Hello! I'm running a PVE 5.2 cluster with 4 nodes. The cluster is attached to a SAN, an HP P2000 G3 iSCSI. VMs are hosted on the SAN. The first controller of the SAN failed. Everything is running on the second controller, but I can't manage PVE anymore. Although VMs are running, it seems that...

Just sharing a possible issue some people may run into in the future experiencing a broken pipe when migrating a VM, during a replicate operation, etc. BACKGROUND I recently upgraded the CPU and motherboard for my alternate node. There were some issues during the upgrade and considering I had...

I have my server died but the SSD is ok. I bought a new HW and want to have the same config as I had before. The HW is slightly different - I tried cloning ssd (a new server has only M2 while the old one had only SATA). It did not really work. What do I need to do to restore all my VMs to a new...

I am working in an environment with multiple, unclustered, nodes and have one node that needs to go down for maintenance. I'd like to migrate the active VMs and containers on this node to a different node for continuity of access. I know that without an established cluster, this has been...

Alto I have specifically disabled the external IPS it seems for some reason the migration tries to use external ip over local ips. Note all these. behaviours are only present in latest releases, last 1 month broked also the ceph cluster that might be unrelated or disk issue, i still debug that...

Coming from this thread, for information purposes. In order to get this done, I migrated the VM to another node, to avoid the downtime. Migrating back, I got this error: 2020-10-06 19:32:44 ERROR: online migrate failure - aborting 2020-10-06 19:32:44 aborting phase 2 - cleanup resources...

Why Migrate VM/LXC Restart Mode with NFS storage ? why live migrate into restart mode ?

So here's the setup in a nutshell: two nodes: node1, node2 in a cluster cluster is healthy and running the latest version of PVE, all updates applied node1 storages: local, local-zfs, pool1 node2 storages: local, local-zfs, pool2 The question is: how do I move a container that runs on node1...

Hi, I'm planning to replace hardware of my Proxmox node. Currently multiple Containers with total of few TB are located on 2x 6TB HDD with ZFS storage called just "local4". I know that safest way will be create full Container Backup, shutdown node, move my disk to new machine and then restore...
