    yes, the "priv/lock" dir is special-cased to handle lock expiry (after 120s, with calling code only holding the lock for 60s) - because otherwise if the node gets fenced or crashes between the mkdir and the rmdir you end up locked forever.

    Using something like zabbix or checkmk is obviously better, because with them you can monitor VMs of other hypervisors too and even physical machines. They too cache the last seen value, so even if the VM is offline you can still see if the VM...

    Are there any ways to pass a graphics card through to a virtual machine without downgrading the kernel? If I replace the video card with a NVIDIA Tesla P4 8GB GDDR5 version, will it work without error writing '1' to...

    Thanks a lot - my perl5 is a bit rusty, but the cfs_lock sub looks rather close to what I'd have in mind :) https://git.proxmox.com/?p=pve-cluster.git;a=blob;f=src/pmxcfs/memdb.c;h=77d76526e9052de3befa8ef551c6ef5c9e4b1427;hb=HEAD#l547 hints at...

    Hi. I have a cluster with 3 nodes running Proxmox 9.1.6. The problem is that the web interface now logs me out of the session every 5 minutes, on any of the nodes, and I have to re-enter my credentials to reconnect. I can't find the cause of...

    Hi n10ev, Welcome to the forums! While it's not my place to answer for nbaniks situation: if they're migrating from an existing VMWare deployment, the hardware is already in place. Replacing (high cost) fibre channel equipment with (lower...

    Zabbix and checkmk leverage the Proxmox API at the moment: https://www.zabbix.com/integrations/proxmox https://docs.checkmk.com/latest/en/monitoring_proxmox.html Most monitoring tools don't use the qemu agent or ProxmoxVE api since...

    One way is to restore the backup via the CLi and give a specific size for the rootfs like this. Another way is to lie to the system by editing the size in the config file before creating the backup and then restoring it. As for the lock I'd try...

    Thank you for your reply. My NAS is connected via NFS. My NAS has no problems; it is a bit old but does not suffer from slowness or any other issues. All disks have no integrity issues according to the command. I already tried to delete the TPM...

    fireon reacted to mhert's post in the thread My RDS-2025 VM running extremely slow. with Like Like.
    We had the same (?) problem on our newly installed rds server with server 2025 (running on pve 8 with AMD EPYC 9124 cpu). extreme slow login, slow start of programs, overall a "slow" system. Then we changed the cpu of the vm from "host" (like...

    Which means that, if I understand this correctly, vSphere couldn't do it either, and you had to use a third-party tool to achieve what you wanted. ;) If we now apply this logic to Proxmox, for which we have already established that the QEMU...

    Or Ubuntu since ProxmoxVE uses Debian userland and a Ubuntu kernel (with some modifications) as base. So if some hardware is supported by Ubuntu it most likely will work on ProxmoxVE too. In the end the kernel, not the userland is responsible for...
