Hi, I reinstalled Proxmox on a new drive and I now need to restore my VM's from backup. I have them as an SMB share mounted where the backups were sent to and where they are getting restored to.
Kernel information: Linux 5.15.107-2-pve #1 SMP PVE 5.15.107-2 (2023-05-10T09:10Z)
PVE manager: pve-manager/7.4-3/9002ab8a
I have an enterprise subscription and everything is up to date.
The first VM which is 40GB restored quite quickly and is up and running, the next 2 VM's are both 2TB in size. I attempted to restore one, it got to about 30% or so and failed as the machine restarted midway through, no idea why this happened.
So a second attempt was tried, it got to 40%, and same thing, restarted midway through. All progress lost.
Third attempt, same thing, reached exactly 40% (500GB or 512GB or so) and it restarted, except this time I guess something went wrong as the machine was still powered on, but the web interface wasn't working and neither was SSH. I had to manually power the machine on and off. These are getting restored to a 4TB LVM-Thin pool, so space definitely isn't an issue.
Three times this failed and I had to delete the incomplete VM and start again, and it takes a really long time (5 hours or so each run) only for it to fail because Proxmox keeps abruptly restarting and it takes me right back to square one. Are large VM's unsupported or something? This is really strange.
Could I please receive some help so I can restore these VM's and get them running again. It looks like it can't get past the 500GB mark for whatever reason.
