• update LVM to 2.02.95 (fixes snapshot problems)

Looks promising! Do you happen to have a reference to back up this statement (e.g. specific LVM bug fixed)?

Thanks,
David

Great job!
Can you make an orderly boot for containers too?

see http://sources.redhat.com/git/gitweb.cgi?p=lvm2.git;a=summary

The bug is described here: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=127

Great job!
Can you make an orderly boot for containers too?

Works already on the CLI:

# vzctl set <ctid> --bootorder <N>

 

[cirroz]

Thans a lot!

 

[andrea68]

WoW! Great work!

Do you think can I upgrade from 2.0 easily?
(is an upgraded 1.9 without grub update...)

 

[cirroz]

I upgraded 2.0 to 2.1 without issues.

 

[Digdug]

Great! Thanks a lot for the startup-shutdown feature!
And the bug-fix for LVM snapshots!

Upgrading from 2.0 to 2.1 worked without any issues.

Thanks for the update. I upgraded from 2.0 to 2.1 using apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, I see the version changed in the management webpage but I can't see the new options (start/shutdown order) only "start at boot". Can this problem be related to the fact that I had a VM running at the time of upgrade? (It was the firewall and I couldn't shut it down because without it I can't reach internet - well, not without modifying whole network settings).

 

[tom]

try reloading the admin gui (browser reload)

Hi, sorry for the late reply. I tried reloading, deleting temporary internet files etc but only the VM has the new options (start/shutdown order, delay etc)... the CTs still have only "start at boot".

 

[tom]

Yes, read the wiki page.

Hi, I don't know how I skipped the note regarding CTs Thank you for your response.

seems you run an unsupported mix of packages - e.g. linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64 is not part of a Proxmox VE system and obviously, the script does not know your customization.
