Hi, May I check if the Proxmox snapshot and PBS backup are the same? which one is better. Recently, one of our VM got crashed and recovered from r1soft backup, the whole process took around 6 hours complete. Does anyone have any recommendations for fast recovery Thank you

Busy to get some documentation/preparations in place, and the question popped up: What is needed to recover a PBS server with intact datastores, but the rpool/root disk(s) failed got corrupted? (case in point a server with a single NVMe or two similar SSDs that fails together or other operator...

As the title says, my bios no longer recognises my proxmox installation as bootable. drive has not failed as I can view partitions with data recovery software. I need a quick fix to either recover data from one of my ubuntu server vm's or to repair the installation. Sorry if this thread is in...

Hello everyone, I was attempting to format a couple of unused ZFS drives by using fdisk (g then w), and just like it warns you not to, I wrote a blank GPT partition to the drive that stores my LXC images. This drive was originally partitioned with LVM, and all that seems to be intact. I only...

because i fail to understand i share my clumsly learnings with proxmox For some reason or other i wanted to explore how to configure two bridges using a single NIC. Eventually this resulted in the faint hearted decisions to set the gateway of vmbr0 to 0.0.0.0, because who knows, it might just...

I lost a node that contained all of my vm templates. Unfortunately, vm templates are tied to a node, so though the underlying images still exist in my ceph pool, I can no longer use them from the proxmox ui (they can be seen with rbd ls -p <pool>. What is the recommended approach to resolving...

Hi, The title says it all, I've mistakenly rm -R /etc/pve/nodes on a quorated PVE 5.4 2-node cluster. The cluster still runs happily, and pvecm status looks fine and all. But corosync did its job thoroughly removing this directory from the two nodes. I guess the configuration is still in RAM...

I ran into an issue with my USB-stick installation and was not able to boot from the stick anymore, so I made a new installation of Proxmox into a 32gb ssd-drive and was able to import my old ZFS into this setup using the 'zpool import <name>'-command . Now however I am unable to mount the old...
