migration

Hi, I have a ProxMox node running 7.4-20 on bare metal which has a container whose Root Disk image is on a local Directory type volume. I recently bought a new server and installed ProxMox 8.4.1 on that (also on bare metal) and would like to migrate my container to that including putting the...

Good Morning/Evening, I didn't think I'd ever have to but I have several VMs running on one physical disk that I want to move to another datastore on another disk. I can move the storage one at a time through the web ui but I was wondering if anyone knows of a faster method? This will be...

Hi, I’m experiencing very slow disk migration in my Proxmox cluster when moving a VM disk from FlashME5 (iSCSI multipath + LVM) to CephStorage (RBD). Migration from Ceph → FlashME5 is fast (~500–700 MB/s), but in reverse (FlashME5 → Ceph) I only get ~200 MB/s or less. Environment: Proxmox 8.x...

Hello, I am currently having a problem with mail notifications, I have 3 servers: pve-server-01, pve-server-02 and pve-server-03(This last one is only used as a quorum device). A few months ago I configured the notifications using an SMTP server(Gmail) in Datacenter->Notifications and until...

Hi, I'm newbie. I want to migrate VM to another node on same cluster. But when i go to target storage, "permission denied" message appears. Please help me and sorry for my bad english. Thank a lot

Hello I've been using Hyper-V for years, but since Microsoft no longer offers free Hyper-V since Windows Server 2022 and I couldn't figure out how to configure VLANs on the single active host NIC, AND Windows Server 2019 didn't have drivers for the second NIC, I finally decided to migrate to...

Hello! We're about to move mail from one 365 tenancy to another and we'd like to minimise downtime and NDRs. I was hoping to have mail delivered to pmg which would then hold it until we can release it, pointed at the new location. I'm sure I've done this before but I don't remember how - maybe...

I moved my virtual machine disks from one volume to another on the same Proxmox server. After moving them, I deleted the original disks, which were listed as unused, but the storage space occupied during the migration process hasn't been freed up. What could be the cause? I've also checked for...

Hey all, Action Taken: - Cluster Created - 2x VM's Migrated To New Host Issue: - Disk storage totals don't seem to add up (pretty sure I'm just reading this incorrectly?) Host disk is 240 GB so this thing should be over capacity?

Good afternoon, I understood from the information that DCM supports Live Migration between different data centers? if so, how does it work? could I migrate databases without stopping writing to them?

I can successfully migrate a small guest between two geographically remote datacenters. ~65ms lag. Datacenter Manager 0.1.11, PVE 8.3.3 It fails on a large guest. Looks like zero traffic happened. And then the qm tunnel eventually dies. The logs mention snapshots. There are no snapshots on...

I have a few virtual machines currently on ESXi that I need to move to my Proxmox server. These VMs are large, having multiple virtual disks, some of which are 2TB. The migration tool seems to be capped at 1Gbps, so migrating with the migration tool isn' really possible without incurring...

Moin, ich habe mich schon umgeschaut und habe keinen Thread dieser Art gefunden, daher erstelle ich einen Neuen. Sollte das nicht passen, bitte löschen. :) Während meines Praktikums habe ich die Möglichkeit bekommen, verschiedene Migrationsmöglichkeit von VMWare zu Proxmox zu testen. Dies...

Der im Titel genannte Fehler tritt auf, wenn ich bei der Migration auf einen Cluster (beide Nodes sind eingetragen in einem Remote) einen "Target Endpoint" auswählen möchte. (sprich einen spezifischen Node auf den migriert werden soll) Wenn ich allerdings keinen oder einen anderen der beiden...

Hello, I have a Proxmox cluster built with 4 servers and HA configured. Now, a question that might sound silly: In the event of one server failing, all virtual machines are migrated to another server in line with the policy, which is obvious. However, will these virtual machines shouldbe...

Hello. Yesterday my home ESXi installation quit and I have been out of the loop for a while, so missed the demise of VMWare and it's free version of ESXi. As a result I have decided to migrate to Proxmox VE but there are some cross migration elements I don't fully understand and was hoping for...

I have a Proxmox with LVM thin (datathinpool), I want to migrate all the container to a new server using ZFS (vmdata) But when I try to do it I got: # pct migrate 120 lokol --restart --target-storage vmdata 2025-01-16 13:53:22 shutdown CT 120 2025-01-16 13:53:26 use dedicated network address...

Is it safe to migrate a Windows server VM from one cluster to another? I am not sure if any licensing problems can occur.

Hi, Today we tried rebooting our nodes one per one. We used the ha-manager crm-command node-maintenance enable like we did several times before. However, this time it seemed to migrate too many vms to the same node which caused this node to crash due to it's memory usage. I just read some...

I've been giving "remote migration" a try for the first time today, moving machines live from a single host running ZFS to a new cluster running CePH. It worked tremendously well—without issues and on the first try—for all VM's but one, which always fails with the following errors. I tried...
