    Possible issue with permission conjunction for user and group.

    Problem with backups of LXC Containers

    Hi all, I am all of a sudden having an issue with backing up LXC containers on my nodes. I have a couple of servers in LXC format and since a couple of days ago they are all displaying issues when running a backup. Haven't run any updates in a bit, but the nodes also show that there are no...

    [SOLVED] Permission issues with snapd and lxc containers.

    Adding an OSD requires root

    We've split users into groups and allocated different roles to each group (essentially admins and non-admin users). Non-admin users are limited to performing VM functions, while users in the admin group have the built-in role "Administrator" applied. This should give them the ability to perform...

    PVEPoolAdmin Role

    If a user is a member of Pool A and Pool B with the PVEPoolAdmin role on both pool A and B, is it possible for that user to move a VM from pool A to pool B ? I noticed if the user removes the VM from the pool, he can't add it back to the pool or to any other pool... which makes sense. But how...

    [SOLVED] Permission issue in container with mount

    [SOLVED] Near-root permissions

    Good afternoon. I'm looking for a means to create super user type accounts that are similar to root that authenticate against Active directory. I have AD authentication working but I am unable to fine tune the permissions to allow things for some users/groups to create, stop, out, destroy OSDs...

    tighten up security on dump folder

    Hi Everyone, I noticed that the dump folder where all backups go requires and defaults to 777 permissions. Is there a way to remove the rwx permissions to "others" without disrupting Proxmox's backup jobs? Can we specify which user on the host will be running the job that requires full access to...

    Datastore.Allocate needed to browse Content (Templates, Backup, etc)?

    I've discovered that the privilege Datastore.Allocate is needed in role in order to grant a user access/browse Content of a storage? This seems pretty backwards - what does then Datastore.AllocateTemplates do? Datastore.Allocate grants users the ability to remove datastores which is not...

    Multiple people create their own vms, but shouldn't see each other. Can we use one lvm-thin?

    I'd like to be able to give access to two-three people so they can install stuff on my proxmox. In order for these guys to be able to create a vm/lxc, they have to have the Datastore.AllocateTemplate on the storage which is only found in PVEDatastoreAdmin. So in order for two people to create...

    (Hopefully) Quick question about roles.

    Is it possible to make a role that only allows the user to see the summery tab for the data center, and cluster nodes but do/see nothing else? I want to give a user the ability to see how much the resources are being used and then give them permissions else where (Ive got this part figured out)...

    On a completely fresh install of Proxmox VE 5.1, I'm unable to create unprivileged containers from templates and creating backups. I get permission errors when I try. The issue with creating the containers seems to be that templates gets saved with root ownership and strict permissions that...

    TASK ERROR: unable to parse directory volume name proxmox

    So I setup a new cluster and I am moving image files off via USB drive. One reason for this is I am using Ceph and it appears the best import method is actually to add the disk to a new vm conf and move the disk from local to ceph. I used a USB hard drive for the task, mounted it, and added a...

    [SOLVED] Bind mount to reflect Samba mount owner/permissions?

    I have a few containers running on Proxmox and have a challenge with a Bind mount vs a Samba share. Container 101 has a directory shared via Samba (it's effectively my NAS). Anything written to it via Samba adopts file ownership & permissions determined by the samba process / config. That same...
