Hello.

I have a problem with my one Proxmox instances long time ago. I tried lot of suggestion and solution but it isn't working. :( Currently updated my proxmox instance to 8.2.4 (latest) version and the problem is still active.

The problem is: When I restart or start the proxmox server, vmbr0 is down, the server isn't available. When I phisically type ifup vmbr0 from console, everything is working until I will restart the server. I tried to reinstall ifupdown2 with apt it isn't resolve the problem. Who can help in this problem? Lot of thanks!
 
Web-UI --> network --> vmbr0 --> check for auto-start yes and device under the bridge, eg. eno1 (check your's), should auto-start no because it's startet by the bridge itself !!

This is set correctly. There is a problem with it as well.

Take a look at cmd dmesg and /var/log/<messages>|<kern.log>|<daemon.log> to find anythink about your vmbr0+eno1 problem.

Have you ipv6 defined in the vmbr0 config window ? Content of /etc/hosts ?
No.
1724749099333.png

But in the host file is contain:

Code:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.1.20 morpheus.xyxy.eu morpheus

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts

::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

Do you have these ipv6 lines included also ? Else include them.
cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
#
# ... maybe some of your own here
 
We got some NetworkManager infos also while there is no nmcli cmd installed, eg.:
/var/log/messages.1:Jun 28 10:31:45 ... kernel: [3106457.988580] task:NetworkManager state:D stack: 0 pid:3595108 ppid:3594872 flags:0x00004000
/var/log/messages.1:Jun 28 10:33:46 ... kernel: [3106578.820052] task:NetworkManager state:D stack: 0 pid:3595108 ppid:3594872 flags:0x00004000
PS: Chat made some auto emoj's from the lines but that doesn't any matter.

There are still parts of NetworkManager installed but not the cmd nmcli. Do you have the binary by testing "nmcli con show" ?

Currently I disabled the networkmanager with these commands and restart the server:
Code:
sudo systemctl stop NetworkManager-wait-online.service
sudo systemctl disable NetworkManager-wait-online.service

sudo systemctl stop NetworkManager-dispatcher.service
sudo systemctl disable NetworkManager-dispatcher.service

sudo systemctl stop network-manager.service
sudo systemctl disable network-manager.service

The nmcli con show say now: "NetworkManager isn't running", but currently after the restart the server is reachable again in the network. Not need to cmd ifup vmbr0. It is possible that the docker installed the NetworkManager and that caused the problem.

Thanks a lot for the helping.

I would like to give a little help again. I have a lot of problem with my CT-s when it want to start nginx server. Protocoll Address is not supported [::]... Maybe the problem is the proxmox server isn't get IPV6 addres.. (In the past I tried to disable IPV6, but I don't know what I modified). /etc/sysctl isn't contain ipv6 disable line. Lot of thanks for your help.
