Hi, I try to upload with curl a iso file via the api to the storage, that works well (Prox 8.2). Now I tried to add the checksum check but nothing happens. I am not sure what happens or if it should work at all ? I get the same output regardless if the checksum is correct or not (file get...

Hello! Thank you for reading my post! I'm creating my first Windows 11 VM on Proxmox and I was wondering what are the best settings for the storage? I want it to be fast so I'm looking for the settings that would provide the best performance. I'm using a DRAM-less SSD to store the disk of the...

Hi there, I recently got a new 14 TB HDD from which I created a thinpool (lvm-thin), let's call it "datapool" for now. I also created a container (debian 12 based) located on local-lvm storage. Then I mounted 10 TB of the datapool to this container via the Mount option in the GUI. My problem...

Hey folks! I'm using a ZFS pool on my machine, and I've been mounting filesystems from the pool into Proxmox LXC containers. However, I've run into a problem where if a dataset has children (e.g. `tank/media` contains `tank/media/movies`, `tank/media/music`, etc.) then the filesystems below it...

Hi! I found some comments about using Snapshots (LVM or ZFS or GlusterFS ) in Storage causes disk performance degradation ( permanent slow I/O ), but if you remove all the Snapshots, the performance is returning to normal. Has anyone here had a similar experience?

Hello, Currently, I have about 50 GB of logs, most of them being used by `mail.info*` and `syslog*` I am not looking to store more than 90 days of logs. I've `logrotate` but `mail.info` remained at 15G, along with some other logs, which is huge considering that the PMG has very little traffic...

Hello, I'm running TrueNAS Scale and I created a ZFS dataset for ISO files. I created both an SMB and NFS share pointing to it so I can use those ISO's between all my Windows and Linux clients. The share path was /mnt/pve/truenas-iso and I noticed Proxmox couldn't see the ISO's I had placed...

I'm trying to reproduce a configuration in my ESX environment. Essentially I deploy a service/app VM which is immutable and mount/bind a mutable storage volume. Deploying upgrades is as simple as creating V2 of the VM, binding/mounting the storage volume and then stopping the old VM and starting...

Hi, i have still a lot to learn about ProxMox and Linux. Here is my question. I have successfully migrated a handful of VM's from VMWare to ProxMox now. I always followed Guide's online. On the ProxMox Server i used to go into /root/vmware and executed: "/usr/bin/ovftool...

I'm experiencing an issue with my Proxmox setup where the iSCSI LUN becomes unrecognized during high usage by guest VMs. The VMs have their disks backed by this iSCSI LUN. Initially, everything works fine, but after a while, the drives stop working. **Setup:** - **Proxmox VE Version:** 8.2.2 -...

Good afternoon, when attempting to access the disks on my Proxmox node, an error message appears stating "communication failure (0) or Connection timed out (596)". The goal was to view all the disks of the server in order to link them to the server itself. Despite encountering this error when...

I have disabled ipv6, added the machine without the "enabled" box, we check that both computers see each other and we restart the server.Despite everything, it still does not connect.

Hey guys, Proxmox is amazing and was working pretty flawlessly in my environment. Today I checked in on the system and saw that there was a backup job throwing an error. Checking the storages I saw that my external harddrive dropped from 500 GB storage to just 100 GB storage. After a reboot the...

I currently have two drives full of important media files that were in use for a barebone NAS setup. I have mounted the drives to proxmox and it detects them but I am hoping to be able to read/write the already created ext4 partitions within a VM, although i have not been successful in finding a...

Has anyone tried using the 45 drives HL15 for their PBR server? I'm at a point where my pbr, running as a vm on my pve server, with nested storage isn't going to work long term or be very dependable long term, in fact it's already crashed twice and I lost my data. The first time I lost my...

Hallo geschätztes Proxmox Team, wir sind aktuell in Kontakt mit Pure Storage bzgl. einer PVE Storage Integration (Storage Plugin), da wir bei uns ein Pure FlashArray in Verwendung haben und die Überlegung aufkam, dass aktuelle Hyper V Cluster auf Proxmox umzustellen. Da leider aufgrund der...
