Using proxmox with R1soft CDP

[jhamon]

Hi,

I would like to use proxmox with R1soft CDP (Continous Data Protection) To do so I need to build my own kernel based on the one for proxmox.

To do this I need the build and source files Can you make these available please

proxmox:/# /usr/bin/r1soft-cki

Please install the kernel headers for your operating system.

The kernel sources are available at:

ftp://pve.proxmox.com/sources/pve-kernel-2.6.24_2008-10-29.tar.gz

But there is also a kernel headers package available:

# apt-get install pve-headers-2.6.24-1-pve

same issues with cdp

I ran into the same thing running cdp on a vps

I get the following:

And you installed the kernel header package?

Hi,

Sorry I should have updated the thread before now. I installed this with the Debian 64 bit agent and now have this running on the host node.

I have not tried a restore but it is creating and verifying the restore points.

yup... sorry did not mean to hijack thread.. same issue

I was able to get it running on the host
however i cannot run on any vps

i think i may have a work around - but not 100%
will update once I figure it out.

Hi,

What virtualisation platform are trying to run this on. It won't work on openvz as these aren't seen as a block device for storage which is why it will only work on the host machine.
