I want to test Proxmox and I want to install Proxmox not on the whole disk but on a partition. How do I mount the whole thing as root so that Proxmox is installed only on one partition and does not delete the whole disk?
Hello,
My VM has run out of storage on its virtual drive. I went to extend the drive in proxmox, then I realized I would have to extend the partition in the VM as well. The problem is that the linux file system is the first partition on the drive with the swap and extended, so I cannot just...
Hello. A while ago, when i set up proxmox on my HP ProDesk 400 G4 Mini (https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c06047054), i specified the HDSIZE on installation. I thought the 50 GBs from my 256 gb SSD would be enough and the rest of the space i would use for VMs. Now i'd like to resize the...
I am currently setting up iSCSI storage with direct LUNs.
However, VM does not detect any partition (the LUNs already have data on them).
I experimented and found that if I create a MBR table (rather than GPT) with a single partition, the VM detects the partition but with an invalid size.
Host...
Hello,
I have a Virtual Machine on a distant server that I want to clone with the exact amount of data into a physical disk.
I tried to dd the command to copy the virtual image and tried to transfert ip to another distant machine through a ssh connection.

I have set up a Datacenter Cluster with two nodes and one Backup Server with a reverse proxy and several webservers, each on its own VM. Each node is running on a re-purposed embedded firewall device with only space for a single 512G drive (a M.2 SSD). The Proxmox Backup Server is running on a...
Hallo zusammen,
mein Server (HP Proliant 360 gen8) bootet nicht von seinen Festplatten, wenn der RAID-Controller im "HBA-Modus" betrieben wird. Sprich : ich kann nicht von Festplatte booten, wenn ich aus dem "RAID-Modus" raus bin..
Nun zu meiner Frage: Der Server bootet aber von USB/bzw...
Hi,
I am currently switching to a new personal home server, using Proxmox VE, v7, with several VMs/CTs in the future.
Hardware: Barebone, 16GB RAM, and one 2TB SSD (and no other drives).
This is how the disk looks like:
root@pve:~# lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE...
Everytime I tried to install Debian or Ubuntu server in a vm (that would be my first one) everything goes well until it's time to write the partition unto the disk and create the filesystem (even with the whole disk on ext4 or ext4 +swap)
And on debian it says "The ext4 file system creation in...
Hi guys,
I recently bought a server on which I run Proxmox for virtualization.
First I installed Proxmox directly on my 1TB SSD, but then realized that I was losing almost 100GB for the "local" partition, but I wanted to use the fast SSD storage for the "local-lvm", i.e. the VMs themselves...
Guten Abend :)
ich habe so das kleine "Problem" dass ich in meinem Cluster einen Node habe, wo Proxmox noch auf einer alten 250GB HDD installiert wurde und das möchte ich gerne langsam ändern. Früher bereits gemacht von einer kleinen auf einer größeren Platte mittels Acronis. Jetzt hab ich...
I've just installed PBS and I'm trying to create a Directory on my 10TB Seagate IronWolf drive.
Unfortunately, right when I'm issuing the create command, this happens:
TASK ERROR: command "blkid" "-o" "export" "/dev/sda1" failed - status code: 2 - no error message
Obviously, if I look into...
It seems as if the default install sets local at 100 GB. That's way overkill for my scenarios. Is there a way to change that upon install or after install (before adding VM's)?
Hello, I apologize in advance if it has already been somewhere, I have been looking for a solution for several days - also on this forum and probably a stupid simple problem but I can not find a solution anywhere ... sorry for that
I have proxmox ve 6.3 installed on debian 10.7 and I have an...
Hallo zusammen,
ich kenne mich mit Proxmox noch nicht so gut aus und benötige deshalb etwas Hilfe.
Ich möchte gerne meine zweite NVMe, die momentan nicht verwendet wird, gerne als Backup Storage nutzen. Nur habe ich leider keine Ahnung, wie ich das genau mache. Eine wirklich gute Anleitung die...
Hello everyone,
I'm struggling to properly prepare a CentOS 7 Cloud-Init image, there doesn't seem to be an already prepared image like on Ubuntu and many tutorial are extremely different from each other and I just can't find a way to do this... I've searched for so many tutorials, yet none of...
When trying to patch a kernel an error message always comes up saying root partition is out of space. Is there a way to safely recover space by clearing any unneeded files? Up until now I have always deleted the default lvm and extended the root partition but I’m wondering if there is a more...
Hallo,
ich habe eine Partition (sda3), die bei Proxmox unter Disks -> LVM als newdrive angezeigt wird.
Ich würde gerne diesen Storage als Storage für Backups verwenden, was muss ich genau machen?
Ein Directory mit dem newdrive lässt sich leider nicht erstellen.
Danke im Voraus!
Hi Community,
im pretty new to Proxmox and trying to install Proxmox 7 VE for my first time.
Im jsut to dumb to find the option, where i can choose the partition for the proxmox install. I only found an option, where i have to enter thedisk size and the fs type.
Thanks in Advance!
I need to shrink a Proxmox-KVM raw volume with LVM and XFS.
Now, XFS doesn't support shrinking as such. It's possible to hack around this with xfsdump and xfsrestore, but this would require 250G data to be copied offline, and that's more downtime than I like.
Whats the alternative? I was...
