tmpfs

Hi, I recently upgraded to PVE 9 - I know, a bit late to the party, but better late than never ;-) As written in the upgrade guide I realized that /tmp is now a tmpfs with size 50% of RAM. - What's a good size for the PVE host /tmp dir? Does PVE ever write there or can it also be disabled? -...

Posting this because the existing threads on this are all titled by the cause ("tmpfs wrong size"), and nobody hitting it searches for that. They search the symptoms - and those searches currently return threads about slow storage and HA timeouts, which sends you the wrong way for hours. This is...

I noticed an issue where I was experiencing a lot of OOM errors within my LXC containers. After updating to Deb13/PVE9.x I found some of my LXC containers at 99% CPU and 99% MEM usage. Debian 13 has, by default, moved /tmp to a tmpfs. It incorrectly pulls the amount of memory tmpfs has...

Hello All! I have been experiencing some LXC with small memory allocation stops, randomly dies silently without any trace of cause. Watching over time, I found that the most probably reason is out of memory. Allocating more memory allows it to run longer, but it fails anyway. When I try to find...

For the past couple of months, I have been desperately trying to resize the volume of my Proxmox container because it has been constantly running out of space. I followed the few guides that I've seen on the forum page, but every single one of them has led me to a dead end. When I utilize the...

Dear Proxmox Community, openQRM would like to announce the new openQRM Community version 5.3.50 which now supports Proxmox VE 7.0 running as a tmpfs memory resident operating system. This allows compute nodes, physical and virtual servers to pxe boot Proxmox VE or almost any linux operating...

We are trying to debug some memory issues with a container and best practices to monitor Within the PVE interface I see Memory usage 11.59% (949.30 MiB of 8.00 GiB inside the container: cat /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 8388608 kB MemFree: 2967096 kB MemAvailable: 7401044 kB...

Hi Team, Just wanted to announce that we have deployed Proxmox through openQRM on a pxe/tmpfs boot. Really happy that we don't need physical boot drives any more for our SANs and compute cluster. We have the whole network running from a 2GB tmpfs disk and even use it for KVM nodes for services...

I'm using the suspend mode for my automated backups, but in order to decrease disk writes I would like to have rsync write it's temporary files to a ramdisk (tmpfs). Something like this: in /etc/fstab tmpfs /mnt/ramdisk tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec,nodiratime,size=32G 0 0 in...
