Hi everyone, i'm having issues with abnormally high RAM usage from boot. My server has 32GB of total memory and i'm autostarting 4 lxcs with about 2.5Gb of total ram use. ZFS arc is configured to 2GB as per: options zfs zfs_arc_max=2147483648 and is verified by issuing root@neuromancer:~#...

Hello, all. I'm a new Proxmox user and not the best at Linux. For my life, I can't figure out why I can't mount and claim the disks in the Proxmox GUI and Shell. I receive an input/output error when attempting to initialize the disks with GPT in the GUI. I tried to fdisk on the command line and...

Unfortunately PVE ships with quiet booting, the screen goes blank and then turns into login prompt. It does not use e.g. Plymouth [1] that would allow you to optionally see the boot messages. While trivial, there does not seem to be dedicated Wiki page on this basic troubleshooting tip. 1...

Hello, I've seen this happen a few times now and it's always right when PBS goes to do backups on the node. The node keeps logging but drops from the cluster and shows offline. Here are the logs: And then for the rest of the night it just logs these timeouts: Not sure what logs to pull to...

Hello, I'm trying to install Proxmox on my system, but I'm running into a memory error during the installation process. The error message doesn't provide much detail, and I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this. Has anyone experienced something similar? Any advice on what could be causing this...

I've been running proxmox on Intel Nuc (i7-10710U CPU) device for the past several years and it has always been rock solid. Today however it crashed - stopped responding to pings and I had to pull the power plug to restart it. root@pve:~# pveversion -v proxmox-ve: 8.2.0 (running kernel...

Hi Proxmox Community, I have been trying to connect to https://192.168.1.100:8006, but after the server reboot the web GUI become unreachable. The funny thing is that the service itself seem to be running. # systemctl status pveproxy.service ● pveproxy.service - PVE API Proxy Server...

Hi everyone, i'm having an issue that i don't know how to troubleshoute. I boucht an Intel optane u.2 disk, with the aim of passing it trough to Truenas. The u.2 drive works even if it is an ebay-used one (94% life left, so i will probably die before the drive). To test it, i've tried on a...

So I'm running into a bit of a strange issue that I can't seem to find an answer for anywhere. I currently have two Windows 10 VMs that I pass a Nvidia Tesla P100 through to using the vgpu unlock to create two 8GB profiles for each VM. The end goal is to have these two vms set up for cloud...

Hi All, I'm seeking assistance with a odd networking issue on version 8.2 (non-production repos). We are currently operating on kernel 6.5, despite the availability of kernel 8.6, due to specific compatibility and stability requirements. Our setup involves using Linux bridges for LAN and...

I have been searching far and wide for this. But I can't seem to find a solution. In one of our testing clusters we're experimenting with Ceph. But so far the journey has been bumpy at best. The actual trigger for this post is the fact that one of our VMs locked up and I can't seem to get it to...

Just to preface, this is my first time installing Proxmox and using hypervisors in general. When I boot Proxmox from my USB, I select the first option and get to the "Welcome to Proxmox" installing screen. It loads for a little while, flickers all black, then freezes on the installer screen. I...

Good morning, all! This is my first post here, and I'm only making it because I truly couldnt figure this one out on my own. The other day I shut down my 3 nodes in my homelab server rack to unplug it and get all the dust behind and around it. Upon rebooting, my main node seems to have failed...

Hi there, I'm having an odd problem. I have a lovely, working install of Ventura running on Proxmox 7.4. Both GPUs (RX580s) pass through successfully. The NVMe drive passes through to boot the OS. All in all, everything I try seems to be working great except for USB. Currently, I have the...

Not sure what is happening, did a quick upgrade and restarted my proxmox nodes. After that i noticed that they randomly spiked to 100% Can see all kvm's are trying to get as much juice as possible for some reason, but when logging to the vms and seeing whats up, they do nothing and dont use any...

I have a follow up questions but to start lxc containers is basically just an extension of the host/ server. Right? im trying to understand this i dont know why i can not just install an application in a container but if i use a helper script i have less issues. main one im working on is...
