Hello everyone, I am relatively new to homelabbing but have never yet used Proxmox. Though, I've always been tinkering with IT stuff and am also working in the field. Finally, I want to realize my own homelab/NAS combo. My plan is to use Proxmox VE as a host and virtualize TrueNas Scale. I'd be...

Hello, I am having a strange issue with VM backups direct from PVE. I have configured the backup jobs under Datacenter->Backups, going to an SMB share. My backup storage is running low, so I ran a Prune on each of the VM's to free up space. I can see that the extra restore points have been...

Please forgive me, as I'm a total beginner. I'm wondering best practices/feedback on using one disk as the storage for multiple VMs and CTs. Here's what I have right now: /dev/sdc is used for backups. /dev/sdd is used for security cam storage. Things get a bit funky with ZFS formatted disk...

Hi, I've reinstalled Proxmox VE 8.3 on a new SSD (250GB). Before this, I had Proxmox installed on a 1TB hard disk. This hard disk contained both the operating system and all the VM and container images. The previous installation was done via debian and the disk had an ext4 partition. Now I...

Hello, I have a PVE 8.2.2 and I have a Truenas on my LAN with a SMB share full of ISOs. I've imported this share in Proxmox and I'd like to use it without having to upload ISOs in it. The problem is that Proxmox doesn't see the ISOs that are already in it. He can see that 44% of the share is...

I'm operating a Dell PowerEdge R740 server as a Ceph node. The current system boot configuration utilizes a single SAS SSD for the OS drive. I'm planning to migrate to an Dell BOSS M.2 SATA drive via PCIe adapter (two drives as RAID 1) (https://www.ebay.com/itm/296760576190) to optimize the...
