storage capacity

Hi, new to ProxMox (in a production environment), not too new to Virtualization as a whole. We recently migrated from Xenserver to Proxmox, using the following the procedure: Shutdown Xenserver guest In ProxMox node shell, use wget to get the xenserver machine downloaded tar xf [exported Xen...

Hello Team, I am running my production datacenter on 7 nodes proxmox cluster, with HBA SAN shared LUNs. on top of which I created LVM. I create PV and then VG on each LUN then add then created LVM (shared) in proxmox cluster. So one LUN------------> PV------------->VG--------------->shared...

Hi, I have a proxmox server setup and it has been running great for over a year now but now the storage "local" that (idk why) has 100GB allocated to it is almost full and there is nothing stored on it ( at least not when I go throught the UI and click on every subtype that could be stored on...

Hello everyone, I have a problem I cannot solve. I need to create a virtual disk the exact size of a physical one for technical reasons (it must match the hardware disk it was cloned from or the software inside will not work). The space presented to the VM must be exactly 32017047552 bytes. When...

I had to break my 3-way mirror because the amount of available space was inadequate. Somehow my calculations for the total amount of required usable space was woefully off, but that is a separate discussion. I now have a RAIDZ1, with no quotas or reservations, on this or any other dataset...

Hi , I just added second nvme 1Tb to proxmox server. System boots up norammly no beeps no issues. However when it reached to proxmox screen for roo password it stays there for few seconds then goes blank and stops. I also notied the attched LAn card also do not blink at all. However once i...

I've installed Proxmox on a cloud VM with 200GB of space and I think I dedicated too much space to the `local` partition, rather than the `local-lvm` where it seems Proxmox prefers to install the VM disks. This is sample output from `parted -l` and it seems the disks I want to resize are...

I have a freshly formatted set of 4 1TB disks in RaidZ2. the GUI under node->Disks->ZFS shows 4.09TB, while the node->local-zfs->Summary shows 1.92TB. Here's output of zpool list #zpool list NAME SIZE ALLOC FREE CKPOINT EXPANDSZ FRAG CAP DEDUP HEALTH ALTROOT...

Hey, I hope anyone might be able to help and point me in the right direction to solve the following issue. I have a zfs-pool in my machine which I use for mass storage. While I knew I was running low on storage, I expected to still have a few gigs available. But when I tried to rename a file on...

I recently set up Proxmox, but the summary does not show my full 500GB. I did verify that it was using full-size when I was installing it. I looked at the Disks tab, and it does show my full hard drive storage. My (Possibly wrong) guess is that the bottom device (/dev/nvme0n1p3) is not...

I have a PVE host that is currently reporting that "local-zfs" is nearly full. There is only one guest with one virtual disk stored in this pool; the virtual disk was originally 50TB and I have since reduced it to 43TB using zfs set volsize=43T rpool/data/vm-301-disk-0. Anyone experience this...

My DEV Storage ran out of space, I've already extended it on the Storage array. But unsure on how to extend within Proxmox without lossing 6TB of VMs. lsblk on sdb, sde, sdq, sdr pvscan Any direction would be greatly recieved.

I had some issues with my proxmox cluster and ended up starting from scratch. Im hoping you can help me with this dilemma. I have a 3 node cluster. One of them has Proxmox installed as a mirror on 2 SSD's the other two nodes only have single boot drives. I I installed proxmox on the server...

Hi - I have an SSD which is mounted within Proxmox. It contains movie files we use for plex. I logged in via SFTP and cleared out a load of old files. Yet, the hard drive has not reflected that free space. Is there a command I need to run to "free up" the space? Or should I unmount/remount the...

I am using proxmox to manage my virtual machines. When I create a new VM, I have to allocate some space on the SSD. For instance, I have a 240GB ssd and there is 1 VM using 120GB. Is there a way proxmox can automatically alert me if i try to setup a new 240GB VM on the same disk ?

I've added two 500 GB SSD's to my lab system: root@pve-0:~# lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS sda 8:0 0 465.8G 0 disk └─sda1 8:1 0 465.7G 0 part sdb 8:16 0 465.8G 0...

I'm looking for solution why PVE doesn't update usage local storage which I use into vm. For example in VM I downloaded file (about 10 GB). In PVE -> local storage -> Summary I see information that total Size is increased about 10 GB but when I removed this file from VM. Summary in local...

I added disk which is mounted to the virtual machine. When I have removed data on this disk from VM, proxmox still remember usage before remove them. Restart proxmox didn't resolve an issue. Below configuration Hard Disk for VM

Hello! i have a proxmox installation on a server. In this server, i have put some linked folders and some storages as following: linked: - local network drive mounted on another PC (500gb) - onedrive with 2tb local: - 1 SSD 1TB - 7 HDD 1TB (i made a ZFS pool) - 1 SDcard (512gb) the issue is...

Newbie question. Am experimenting with 4 equal VM running Ubuntu. Each VM requires 8GB, 4 cores, 250 GB storage - my server has 12 cores, 32 GB (effectively 31.19GB), and 1TB (effectively 940GB). Running 3 VM’s —> CPU usage is low <30%, Memory usage is 85%, Disk usage is low. Running 3 VM’s is...
