    Slow backups from NFS share

    Hi, I'm using Proxmox Backup Client on a Debian virtual machine on Proxmox VE to backup a quite large NFS share (~ 10 Tb) mounted on the VM. The backup works, but it's very slow. First backup took a very long time (~ 12 days) and it's expected, but even next backups are taking so long: at the...

    Unsuccessful in creating a network drive (CIFS/NFS) in Proxmox with Truenas as Server

    Hi Proxmox, First off, I would like to take a moment to show much appreciation for this VE. Whilst I've banged my head through many walls and scoured many corners of the internet for guidance, Proxmox has allowed me to learn so many new things regarding Linux, VE, (re-learn) Networking and many...

    [SOLVED] Permission denied to mkdir ZFS shared over NFS between Proxmox nodes

    I have added a node to a cluster. Both nodes are running PVE 6.4-8 and I am sharing my disks using ZFS over NFS. I have connected to the respective NFS shares and can see their disks on my node but apparently do not have the right permissions and I'm not certain what those would even entail...

    I have my Synology NAS connected to my proxmox server, as an NFS share. Works fine as storage location for virtual machines and their backups. However, I cannot choose this location as the storage-location for LXC containers. Why is that? Am I doing something wrong here? When I click on the...

    Hello, We experienced three kernel crashes during guests backup of two distinct Proxmox VE fully-updated 6.4 hosts running on 5.4.114-1-pve Linux kernel. Backups are using the stop mode and a NFS mount. Other hosts running Proxmox VE 6.3 on Linux 5.4.106-1-pve did not triggered the problem...

    Adding NFS Share as Datastore in Proxmox Backup Server

    I'm currently using a OviOS Linux as my main NFS storage and PBS as virtual machine. I'd like to continue to use network storage as my backup target. How would add my NFS share to the Proxmox Backup Server as storage?

    VM backup to CIFS share on TrueNAS VM fails at 100% completion

    Hi folks, I did set up a TrueNAS Core VM (version: TrueNAS-12.0-U2.1, FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE-p3) with 2TB SSD passthrough from the Proxmox host (version: 6.3-6). Inside this VM I created a CIFS share in order to back up other VMs to. To test its functions I mounted the share on Linux and could...

    Backup jobs over NFS - Out of options?

    Hey guys, I'm in a bit of a pickle. I'll start by going over my setup: - Storage server running TrueNas with 10Gb networking - ZFS pools - One pool with 12x 2TB drives in raidz2 (storage B) - Another pool with 3x 400GB ssds in stripe (storage A) - Single hypervisor - Boot disk is 400GB NVMe...

    NFS mount problems after PVE and Corosync upgrade

    Yesterday we upgraded our entire Proxmox Cluster from PVE 5.4-5 to PVE 5.4-15 and Corosync to 3.x. Since then NFS mounts on some nodes are occasionally not available. Anyone else having similar problems? - We are now deleting/adding the NFS mounts again. Hope that will resolve the issues.

    NFS vs iscsi

    I see a lot of organization using NFS instead of ISCSI for vms and data storage. It's apparently more to ease operations: backup can be done on the vm files and do not require a separate server. Is this true? How much performance you are really losing when using NFS instead of ISCSI? The only...

    Single disk proxmox setup, how to encrypt and share a larger chunk of the disk with multiple VMs and other devices on the network?

    Architecture Logic Check | Non-Critical Storage

    After seeing Backup Server go GA, I was immediately interested in putting it to use in my home/lab environment. Currently my storage server backs up to warm storage over sftp with Duplicacy and it has some amazing compression+deduplication. It's also cross-machine deduplicating so any machines...

    nfs looks trendy on the proxmox platform: so nfs or iscsi ?

    I recently discovered that a lot of people around me are using nfs instead of iscsi on a PVE platform. The main reason for it seems that it’s easier to backup an nfs-based solution thaan an iscsi one, since on The remote disk everything is a file. Is this a general trend? What would bring...
