I have a PM VE host that has an external drive attached which I use for backup. It works great. I added a 2nd PM VE host, but it is not clustered as I can't get the PM VE versions to be compatible for corosync. I don't need them clustered though. However there is a 2nd NIC with an...

Hi, after setting up my NAS again, I have an issue with backing up my LXCs to an NFS share. This setup used to work for both VMs and LXCs in the past, now only for VMs. The NFS share is set up with write access (which works – VM backups succeed), and I’m using the all_squash option as well as...

Hi everyone, I'm having some trouble with a Windows NFS share and PBS. Maybe someone here has run into a similar issue. I have an NFS Share on a Windows server 2019 DataCenter running on NFSv3 (server 2019 only supports v3). - mounted it as follows: mount -t nfs -o...

Hello everyone, Since updating Proxmox Backup Server from version 3.3 to 3.4, I’m encountering a blocking error when creating or using a datastore mounted via NFS. Here’s the error output: 2025-06-30T09:23:50+02:00: Chunk metadata was not correctly updated during access time safety check...

Disclaimer: All this is done in a homelab (non-production) environment with a limited budget. TLDR: One central ssd zfs pool shared storage (distinct machine) added to proxmox (two other machines) used for VM app storage (not the VM OS itself). I also want PBS/deduplicated backups. How do I go...

I tried to add a ZFS storage to my Proxmox, but it failed with the following error message. After attempting this, I noticed that the NFS volume was mounted on my Proxmox node. root@node:~# df -h /mnt/pve/true_bkp/ Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on...

I have a directory on my Mac shared via NFS. Here is the `exports` entry: /Volumes/Data01/Projects -alldirs –mapall=dpatterson –network 172.24.0.0 –mask 255.255.0. I am unable to mount it on the Proxmox host. This is what I get when I attempt to mount it: # mount -vvvv...

Hello Proxmox Community, I'm facing a significant challenge with LXC containers failing to start after a Proxmox host reboot. My LXCs depend on SMB shares mounted on the Proxmox host. I'm seeking advice on two related points: Reliable LXC Startup with Network Shares: Is there a more robust...

I have two clusters, each mounting the same TrueNAS SCALE over the same NFS share. Considering that the two clusters can each have the same VMID, won't this cause naming conflicts on the NAS? Should I be using two different shares pointing to two different datasets?

Hey All, I'm a little confused. Under Datacenter -> Storage, you can add shared storage, etc. In my case I add NFS mounts to our clusters without a problem. However, when you remove the storage from the datacenter -> storage GUI area, it stops showing it in the GUI as assigned to each node...

Hello, My NFS storage is an DRBD HA NFS "cluster" so i'm looking for the right settings in terms of performance and, above all, resilience in the event of a ‘Primary/Secondary’ switchover. There is not a lot of information on this page https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage:_NFS Here my...

We have a single Proxmox host running 8.4.1 connected to a Juniper 4400xd-48F switch. The object is to use two SFP+ connections on the Proxmox host to connect to the Juniper switch which will also be networked to our primary storage unit for NFS VM storage. If we connect to the switch via a...

Hi all, We are currently running an outdated PVE cluster (version 6.4) consisting of 5 nodes. All VMs and containers are using an external NFS share for both disk storage and backups, mounted at /mnt/pve/NFS. We’ve recently acquired 2 new nodes, and instead of adding them to the existing...

I need to perform maintenance on one of our NFS servers that hosts VM disks, so I’m migrating everything to our secondary NFS server. However, I’ve run into an issue with VMs that have TPM disks. I’m running the latest version of Proxmox, but I don’t see any option to move TPM disks while the...

Hey, so pretty much what it says on the title. I have 2 PVEs, pvemain [10.5.0.10] and pvecubi [10.5.0.2] (both with DHCP reservation). Pvemain is running truenas on 10.51.0.5 (which operates on a VXLAN network, if at all relevant) and pvecubi, which is a clean proxmox install. Trying to create...

Hi all, I am running Proxmox Virtual Environment 8.3.3. I am trying to set up a Mount for a Synology NAS NFS Share into an Unprivileged LXC to be used for the App "Immich" which I have deployed using Docker. I have used the Proxmox Helper Scripts for the Docker LXC...

Hello, I am writing this thread to ask some questions about my backup system in my Home Lab: First of all, I have a Mini PC with Proxmox VE running, an LXC container with PBS installed with Helper Scripts. I also have an old Synology DS215j NAS used for backups. Following the instructions in...

Hi I'm having a zfs pool RAIDZ1, which includes 4 x 10TB disk. When using this pool in a file server (SMB and NFS) for different purposes, which is better way to share it in LXC or in VM: mount the whole pool as a one big disk (mp1), and use directory structure to share the resource, like...
