    VM Console Access in Datacenter Manager?

    Hi all, I’ve been working with the new Proxmox Datacenter Manager and noticed something that surprised me. It doesn’t seem to offer a way to view or interact with a VM’s console directly from the Datacenter Manager interface. Right now it looks like you still have to open the individual PVE...

    Change to zfs storage handling in 9.0.11 - activate_storage function not in use anymore?

    Hi Until recently i used an early return 1 in the activate_storage function (within /usr/share/perl5/PVE/Storage/ZFSPoolPlugin.pm) to prevent ZFS pools from automatically re-importing after being exported manually with zpool export data-pool. This worked great until including PVE 9.0.9. However...

    Restoring from backup removes existing snapshots

    Hi! Searching the forum, I found a few similar threads, and the statement that backups do not support snapshots. And this is OK. However, when I recently tried to make a backup of a VM with snapshots, and then tried to restore it from this backup - it removed the already existing VM snapshots...

    Tailscale on PVE host

    Hello all, I am setting up a proxmox PVE within a tailscale VPN. Accessing PVE from within the VPN works nicely (from the "outside"). But proxmox sets up its own DNS server on the host, so it cannot find other machines that are managed via tailscale's "magic DNS". That means, for instance...
