virtual machine

Hi, I'm fairly new to Proxmox and Linux, so please excuse my noobiness. Objective Trying to move away from a MacMini hosting SMB shares (the crooked Apple way), TimeMachines and running some Debian/Windows VMs via Virtualbox for Homelab stuff. Moving towards a "real" (home) server with Debian...

How important is it to turn on the "Discard" option for VMs when using an SSD drive for storage? - Eric

Other than the fast creation of a new VM is there any other benefit of converting a VM to a template? I don't think there is any way to update a template once it has been created. If I want to update the template, it would require creating a new VM, updating it and then creating a new template...

I'm a beginner in working with proxmox and want to know what are the steps i need to follow to create a virtual private network of 3 virtual machines Ubuntu (client , server and router ) in proxmox , all by ensuring that : - The router can access the Internet directly - The client can access the...

Hi zusammen, seit heute habe ich nach Empfehlung einiger Personen Proxmox auf meinem kleinen Heimserver laufen. Es handelt sich um einen Intel NUC 8 mit Core i5, 16GB RAM und einer 1TB WD Black M.2 SSD. Bisher habe ich immer Linux direkt darauf installiert und alle Dienste auf demselben...

Preamble: I have 10 containers and 1 VM. The VM is OpenMediaVault containing a mergerfs mount which is shared via cifs to my Windows 10 PC and pve host node. The share is mounted to every LXC via this line in /etc/fstab: //<ip-of-omv-vm>/data/ /mnt/data/ cifs...

I'm a newbie to Proxmox and don't really get many advanced topics yet. But what I want to do in Proxmox is the following: Within Proxmox dashboard I've formatted a storage (2 Sata HDDs, 12TB) into mirror (ZFS). This is intended to be a pure storage Disk and no VMs running on it. It should stand...

I have an Nginx VM that will not start. It was working yesterday. When I try to start it, I receive: VM is locked (rollback) When I unlock the VM with qm unlock 100, and try to start it with qm start 100, I receive the following: kvm: -drive...

Hey, ich habe einen Festplatte (WD Red mit Linux Betriebssystem) an eine VM weitergeleitet. Nun wollte ich von dieser aus in meiner VM booten. Allerdings möchte Proxmox immer von einer nicht vorhandenen CD / DVD oder anderen Medien booten, dadurch funktioniert das Booten von der HDD nur wenn ich...

First of all I would like to thank the Proxmox team for the great software and the nice community they built. I'm using a custom hook script (hookscript.pl) to manage VMs on a system with various GPUs passed through. The first motivation to do so is to avoid a VM (which requires a GPU) being...

One of my virtual machines keeps rebooting randomly at night, but i cannot seem to make head or tails of the error log. 12/18 @ 2:03 12/18 @ 5:14 these are my crash times from today I have attached my kern.log

It would be interresting to have PBS on QNAP or Synology NAS . I wonder if someone already tried to build a native package for them. Other alternative would be using the virtualisation but then It would require to have an x86 platform I guess. Or can we run PBS on lxc arm or docker arm?

Hi! Is there another way, except https://fulitvh.ad1.proemion.com:8006/#v1:0:=qemu%2F106:4::::::, to point to a VM? Something like https://promox:8006/vmName would be so much easier in some cases. Or at least it would not be required to query the API to find out the ID. Thanks in advance!

Hello, I have a linux server (debian) to migrate to a bigger disk, in the process I'm looking forward to virtualize this server. I did a clonezilla disk image of the server (it is on a external HD), how can I import it to proxmox and start a new VM with this image? Couldn't find much info about...

HI, I'm fairly new to Proxmox and ZFS. As you can see in the screenshot below, I have set up 2x pools named 'storage' and 'vm'. In each pool, I have set up files systems with different configs for each filesystem. In Proxmox my place to store backups is set up just as a directory under the...

Thanks in advance for the help and sorry for my English . I am working on my final year project and I have decided to use Proxmox VE as a virtualization environment. I have the need to create a virtual machine from my own web application but I don't know where to start very well. Could someone...

Hi, I wanted to turn my computer into a ProxMox machine with multiple VMs. The problem is that I don't have a wired connection, only WiFi, so I've got an USB Adapter (TP-Lin WN822N v5) and the drivers from a github repo. By using this driver, I managed to connect to the network, by using...
