storage

Hello, I am writing this thread to ask some questions about my backup system in my Home Lab: First of all, I have a Mini PC with Proxmox VE running, an LXC container with PBS installed with Helper Scripts. I also have an old Synology DS215j NAS used for backups. Following the instructions in...

I'm new to proxmox, and new to enterprise hypervisors in general. Running 8.3.2 I'm hoping this is a very basic question, and I've just somehow missed the answer in the documentation. We have dedicated SAN units that share out storage. I can see, and use the assigned LUN from the SAN in...

Hi, new Korean newbie is here. It's just a question, could I add physical storage as 1 node in cluster? I think, as far as I know, it's impossible because clustering requires pve os. It's a shame, but I've been working as a hardware engineer for less than a year. I hope anyone tell me truth. Thx.

Hi, I'm trying to make a shell function get_iso_paths() which would return every path to every storage id of type dir which has content type iso I found that I can get the storage id of type dir with content type iso with pvesm status --content iso Example root@proxmox:~# pvesm status...

Hi In my setup we decided to change connection to remote storage from FibreChannel to RoCE. All the time, this is the same remote storage source (the same storage array) but used different underlaying storage technology. The array is made by Huawei. Since that change during higher network...

Hi I'm new with Proxmox virtual environment trying to backup to an SMB-Share which is on a machine in a different LAN. When I connect to the SMB-share using my Mac or Windows-Laptop, everything works fine So I don't think it is a firewall issue outside of Proxmox. There are no firewall rules in...

Hello everyone, As a newcomer to this forum, I have a query regarding a particular Proxmox installation setup. I've exclusively worked with VMware and this configuration is quite common in that environment. I have a setup consisting of 2 server nodes and a dedicated storage device. Typically...

I have a new installation of Proxmox VE 8.3.3 and am using two external Drives for VM storage and backups etc. When I create a new VM, I start by highlighting the storage device I want PM to use when creating this machine. I make sure that the storage device I want to use is picked in the...

I mounted a directory from Proxmox on multiple LXC containers. This might not be the proper way to share common storage, but it’s the only method I managed to get working. The issue is that the 100 GiB allocated to the local storage is now almost full, and I can’t figure out how to add more...

Good morning. I have a DL360G11 server with FC boards I also have a Nimble with FC and 2 controllers. I'm not going to form a cluster in Proxmox, I'm just going to use a node called SRVPVE01. Can I present the LUN to the SRVPVE01 node, configure the multipath, and on that LUN, create a LVM-Thin...

On a Hardware RAID configured system, we are having a hard time creating LVM2 groups on the RAID controlled drives. Whenever the hardware undergoes a physical power cycle, any LVM2 groups created on these drives are lost and cannot be recovered. Commands like `pvscan`, `lvscan`, or `lgscan`...

Hello, I am in the process of migrating some LXC containers from one host to another where I have different types of storage. The source host where the container is located has ZFS storage and the destination host has XFS (LVM). How should I proceed? I have tried to make a copy of the...

I have a cluster of around 15 nodes. Today i successfully upgraded pbs from 3.0 to 3.3.2. (reboot and full test of backup\restore worked ) Then i Tried to upgrade a single node (from the GUI). all went normal and system worked after upgrade. i Initiated a reboot, to make sure everything...

Hi, For integrating Alletra 5000 storage to a proxmox cluster, may I know which is the best file system we can use? there is not much documentation for this scenario I see some documentations about OCFS2 but not sure if it will work Thank you.

Hi everyone, I'm in the process of setting up a new Proxmox VE deployment and I have a few questions. My servers come with multiple 10GB and 1GB ports. I've read that the Proxmox documentation frequently recommends using dedicated physical links for the cluster network due to latency...

Should I use ZFS at all? For once this requires a disclaimer first: I am using ZFS nearly everywhere, where it is easily possible, though exceptions do exists. In any case I am definitely biased pro ZFS. That said..., the correct answer is obviously: “Yes, of course” ;-) Integrity ZFS assures...

I would like to make a product request: would Proxmox be able to modify the PBS Code to deliver a ZFS over ISCSI pool? call it simply Proxmox Storage server. it doesn't have to be "HA" as it could use the "ZFS Replication" from the Truenas scale code. maybe even a merge of the truenas scale...

I am trying to delete an orphaned disk image so that I can reformat a drive but whenever I do I get an error: When I go to the VM with ID 102 I can see that this drive image is not referenced anywhere in the hardware, the drive image that you see referenced here lives on a different storage...

Hi, Has anyone experimented with ceph stretch pools that seem to have appeared in squid? (not stretched clusters) It seems rather new, but rather interesting, as it may not require the whole cluster to be set to stretched, while still dealing with the guarantee of OSDs and monitors being on...

Hallo zusammen, ich habe ein Problem mit meinem Proxmox-Server, das ich alleine nicht lösen kann. Der Server läuft mit einem ZFS-Mirror und hat 32 GB RAM. Vor kurzem wollte ich eine ISO-Datei herunterladen, aber der Download stoppte immer bei ca. 1,3 GB. Seitdem ist mir aufgefallen, dass ich...
