shutdown

I'm having a terrible time with Proxmox not seemingly being able to shut down Windows (10 and Server 2012 & R2) and Linux (CentOS 6.10) guests. I'm not even sure where to start in terms of isolating where the problem might be. What should I do to ascertain what the problem here is?

I've been running a Mikrotik CHR VM version 6.41.2 for some time now, only for the record of using the embedded TheDude network monitoring package. Since I've been having problems with shutting the VM down before taking a backup from PVE, I've been searching for a way to notify the VM. This was...

Hi all, I've noticed that I cannot gracefully power off any of my Centos 7 or Fedora 28 vm's with "right click -> Shutdown" from the WEB UI. If I do this, it's like I havent done anything and the VM just stays up. I've installed the Qemu drivers with "yum install qemu-guest-agent" and I've...

Hello, Since a few days, some mv WS2003 are shutting down automatically (not forced stops). The vm are shutting down as if someone pressed start, shut down. After that, when I start the machine I found in the event viewer, the next thing: Event ID 6008 "The previous system shutdown at Time on...

What is the right way to do a clean reboot of the whole ProxMox Master node (e.g. after upgrade of pve-kernel)? For example, I wan't to do the reboot at 23:00 tonight. I don't think it's save, to do only an "shutdown -r 23:00" ?! I think the running VM's won't be shutdown in a clean way.. or am...

Hi there, I've been using Proxmox for a while now on different systems, but one of those seems to have trouble with the rebooting part. It works great, until I reboot the thing. Then it acts as if I would give it a shutdown command. It just powers of, and never comes back online on it's own...

Hi, 4 HA Vms were not able to reboot properly this morning at 4:30 pm (reboot via cron). These vms are running Centos 7 64 bits with qemu-guest-agent (hosted by different nodes). Seems that my 3 nodes cluster is up to date : proxmox-ve: 5.1-25 (running kernel: 4.13.4-1-pve) pve-manager...

Hi, I plan to replace a stack of 2xswitchs. A 3 nodes cluster (with dedicated lacp interfaces for vmbr0 and ceph) is connected to this stack. I guess I have to shutdown the entire cluster for doing this. What are your recommendation for doing this properly ? (Stop all vms, then what just...

I use proxmox 5.0 I have windows 10 VM with following specs: balloon: 0 bios: ovmf bootdisk: scsi0 cores: 4 cpu: host,hidden=1 hostpci0: 04:00,x-vga=on,pcie=1,romfile=TI.dump ide2: local:iso/virtio-win-0.1.126.iso,media=cdrom,size=152204K machine: q35 memory: 8192 name: TI net0...

So I put up a brand new PVE 4.4 and wanted to mount a CIFS/SMB share off of a Windows server. I made this note to do this from the last PVE: #mkdir /mnt/sambaspot #echo “//sambaspot.localsystem.local/misc2/vm-images /mnt/sambaspot cifs username=sambaspot,password=P@ssw0rd 0 0” >>...

Hi, In a 3 node CEPH/Proxmox 4 HA Cluster, I recently had a Windows 7 Guest VM hang (BSOD). As expected HA never kicked in because in proxmox' point of view the VM is up and running. I thought maybe the QEMU Guest Agent would help checking for hung VM's but when I checked the wiki page it only...

Many apologies if this question has been answered already, I tried Googling to no avail. I want to set my cron to shut down (power off) my proxmox server at 7pm each day. Will a shutdown also trigger my VM's to shutdown cleanly? Or will is some further configuration needed to make this happen?

Hi. Is there a solution to use variables in container configuration. I need to start some premount scripts and some post stop scripts. As far as I've understand, up to now the variables in container configs are not implemented. My task is simple: 1- to create some directories and files before...

Hallo, auf einem Proxmox System habe ich ein Bash Script via Cron-Job regelmäßig aufrufen lassen. Dieses Script prüft u.a. ob eine gewisse CT-System noch läuft oder nicht. Falls es nichtmehr auf Anfragen reagiert, wird es automatisch gestartet. Wenn nun aber Proxmox neu gestartet wird, darf...

Hi All, Been enjoying using Proxmox for the last couple of months with no real complaints, really appreciate the work that has gone into overhauling the web interface, slick. Over the past couple of days I have had quite a bit of interaction with my server and have noticed the below error...

Grrr... I have a good idea. Why don't we get rid of the "Shutdown" button on the upper right corner. I'm serious. Hands up if you have accidentally halted your host because "something" "somewhere" un-selected the VM that you intended to shutdown. This was not the first time this happened. I...

... or when the node admin selects More -> Stop all VMs and Containers? Is it stop or shutdown? I also have networkupstools (NUT) setup. I guess that when a fatal power failure alerts the node to go down, it also automatically brings the KVM boxes down, but how? Via stop or shutdown? Sorry...
