Hi all, We currently have a ESXi setup, a few machines with a central storage that we use for lab and testing. We are looking into moving to Proxmox and I installed proxmox on one of the servers to try it out. We have a large number if ISO files from different vendors on a NAS. These are in a...

Hello guys, We have several hosts with directory type storage. Anyone tried to change it from directory to NFS? My idea is to start the NFS server on the node, configure the same directory to exports file and change the storage type from the GUI. (and by change I mean remove the existing and...

I have a ceph replicated storage that I would like to be able to use as a backup target for VM snapshot backups, I understand ceph is RBD so I need to create a file system, should I put NFS on ceph? I've searched and searched but I must be using the wrong terms... Any pointers on how to create a...

Hi, I have attached a large HDD over USB3.0 to my Proxmox node. I use it to store backups of VMs and containers. However, I also would like to run many media-heavy Docker containers in a VM (Plex, family photos, Nextcloud, etc) and would have to store the media on that said HDD. What is the...

Hello We are having an issue with templates. We use NFS to store KVM templates however it appears that eac node in our cluster requires a separate templates to be 'housed' there. Is it possible to have KVM templates living on NFS on one node and each cluster node be able to deploy from that...

Hi there -- New to Proxmox and building out the 1st node in a cluster for my homelab and I'm hoping someone can help me figure out what I'm doing wrong. I have a single network interface on my server but multiple VLANs configured on my Unifi switch (trunk port) . I have a single Linux bridge...

Hi Guys. I´m thinking of using either TrueNAS or Windows Server with it´s Storage capabilites. I´m not really sure which one to focus to have it as a Storage backend for my proxmox cluster which consist of 5 nodes. Mainly i want to have a very fast storage with high IO. Disks and everything...

Hello everyone! For some backstory, I upgraded my server, and I keep backups of all my containers and VMs on a NFS share. I have never had any issues restoring said backups, until today. After a fresh install of Proxmox 7.0-1, I went to restore my backups and it took longer than 15 minutes (the...

An idea has been percolating in my mind for some time now... My PVE hyperconverged CEPH cluster does not perform how I would like it to and I am considering non-hyperconverged cluster options for future growth (capacity). We have two "hadoop" high density SuperMicro HDD Nodes, purchasing a third...

Hi everybody i've setup my cluster with 2 nodes. now i got 2 monobay qnap nas where storage vm backup. i would make the two nas with identical configuration (same ip address and nfs share) in order to switch between the two devices( to deploy security backups), the nodes should always recognize...

Hi. We plan to buy 2 unit storage for datastore and backup storage. Currently our setup 6 node compute with proxmox-v5.2 hypervisor. Since our currently CEPH storage almost 6 years, so we plan to buy to replace with the new storage and approach not using hyperconverged CEPH storage anymore and...

Hello, I dont understant somthing with NFS. My proxmox is not on the same network as my NAS. There is a router / firewall in between. Proxmox - FW - NAS (=OpenMediaVault 5.6, NFSv4) If I understood correctly with NFSv4 only ports 111 and 2049 are necessary. So I have open this 2 ports on my...

Hallo zusammen, wir betreiben einen Proxmox-Cluster bestehend aus mehreren Hosts mit Epyc 7702P + 512GB RAM + 2x 960GB SSDs (Boot) + 4x 3.84TB DC SSDs (Storage/Ceph). Auf drei der Hosts habe ich nun Ceph (via GUI Installer) installiert. Die Hosts sind über einen 25Gb Switch redundant...

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...

I recently started a cluster and am sharing directories mounted at ZFS via NFS. Here are my config details. I am on 192.168.1.24 and am mounting a share from 192.168.1.129 This is the error I get when backing up my LXC

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...

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...

I have a Ubuntu Desktop VM with two hard disks. Both reside on an NFS server and the connection is 10GbE. One disk is in raw format and one in qcow2 format. The image files are called vm-106-disk-0.raw and vm-106-disk-0.qcow2. Both are 200 GB in size and attached using VirtIO SCSI controller and...
