    Thanks, I will start with PBS installing on the Intel NUC with 8gb ram and 110gb ssd after that is working i'll come back to you to explain me please how to setup the 2nd machine as cascade.

    @Rytecbe, when you are configuring the PBS, I recommend using namespaces in the datastore. For instance you can create a separate namespace for each PVE node or each physical machine. Thanks to namespaces there is no conflicts from possible...

    Hi guys. I've also have my domains at hetzner moving to hetzner cloud, and I can make it work on my PFsense, but can not add it as described as a hacky workaround above. System is running : pve-manager/9.1.2/9d436f37a0ac4172 (running kernel...

    Hey all, my (slow, but steady ;)) progress into the world of Proxmox as my home server brings up my next question: Now that I have my first container set up, how many services do I pack into it? Is it best practice to separate everything (i.e...

    I just reformatted the host and unchecked the Network PIN option, and after that everything worked perfectly. I can't say for sure if the Network PIN is the problem, but I've been working with PVE since 2014 and had analyzed all the other...

    I suggest once again that people evaluate the Pulse monitoring app, which uses the Proxmox api to monitor not only the temps, but the CPU/RAM/Disk/Backups/hosts/docker apps etc. on a single pane of glass, right across your estate. They have made...

    Firstly- no one wonders this. And apart from that blanket statement I had no idea such a dislike existed. More to the point, it takes two to tango. the original comment wasnt pointed at you and required no reply. the PVE interface isnt/was never...

    My PBS's use surprisingly low CPU resources. The limits come from the storage system. Usually. I would opt for the low power device to run 24*7 and cascade the other one, as mentioned. I am not sure if I understand that correctly...

    That appears to use a mod script from here. It in fact, mods the PVE GUI quite substantially. Be aware that this has the potential of breaking the PVE, especially on future updates/upgrades. Running any script from the WWW on a hypervisor host...

    You say "3" but you list five. If you can actually run more than three then I would evaluate Ceph. With only three I would use ZFS with replication. Most of the drives are HDDs, right? In that case I would highly recommend multiple ZFS mirrors...

    The trouble is that you can't have a "fits everything" solution. If you read more of the previous debates on this subject you would also encounter the (imho) most cruical counter-againt against such an feature: On a modern server you can easily...

    Yes, it also does not make coffe or predict the winning lottery numbers. It's still an awesome product ;)

    Learning various things on the forum is a good thing. I'm glad I could help you understand it. Once your question is resolved, please mark it as resolved.

    Thank you uzumo... I just plugged in what you said into ChatGPT and I learned that the > Samsung SMART RAW_VALUE=79 is not 79% wear and that I should be going by the normalized Value... I'll look into changing that... Thank you for sharing...

    Thank you both, I will go for the PBS on my other Lenovo Thinkcentre with 8gb ram and 256gb SSD or is PBS on the Intel NUC also fine, just asking because of the lower power use of the NUC compared to the Lenovo. Are backups made by PBS bigger and...

    "The only usecase for any backup server is to restore data when (not: if) the source system fails." Another usecase is restoring a file when the source system is OK and someone needs the file which has been deleted or modified in the meantime :).

    You have four (or is it five?) technically different devices which leads to a lot of possible combinations regarding a PVE cluster and a PBS. I can not give you one single way to go. But I have some hint from my point of view: The problematic...
