This thread has been very helpful. I made a video playlist on my YT channel showing how I setup rootless podman under lxc under proxmox 9 with a debian 13 trixie LXC container...
From my point of view it is not best practice to connect a PVE cluster directly to the outer internet. There should always exist a router with filtering capabilities. In that picture the router would do Geo blocking, beside other things. My...
I've got my PVE server backing up to a backblaze S3 bucket. When it is backing up, it gets marked as having warnings and verifying the backup fails.
If anyone has any suggestions that would be great. Thanks a ton

Howdy!
I've got a 4 node proxmox setup - clustered. I've spent wayyy too much time troubleshooting this, but it's more an eye sore than anything. I've got a pihole, traefik, authentik setup along with my cluster- all nodes are fully reachable by...
Thanks alexskysilk, I think I now understand.... I was stupid enough being new to Ceph asking AI for initial advice which led me down a rabbit hole of setting up a traditional storage with dual fault domains for storage back-end. Going through...
rather then quoting, I'll try to address all possible alternatives.
ceph carries traffic on two seperate networks- public (host) and private (OSD-to-OSD.) Think of this as the host bus and disk bus on a RAID subsystem.
While you can have both...
Thanks spirit. So using 2 cluster networks is not really a valid design?
I also saw this post https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/ceph-cluster-network-configuration.182268/#post-846381
So I am struggling to understand why that option would be in...
Edit : UdoB link is less complicated.
I use this script https://github.com/mkorthof/ipset-country on a host
customize the code to keep ipdeny.com download/update and ipset generation/update
Remove firewall/rules parts
Then use the "ipset"...
up to you how you manage your models. in my experience, new models are released every week and I dont bother keeping the old ones.
Feel free to keep your hoarded models on the zpool. its not like its getting any use ;)
right now i have about 4.4TB+ of ai models between all the different text/image versions, loras and all the different things related to them all and for ollama since it cant just use the files as other options can. which is too much really, but...
yeah i think id probably skip the special devices unless i end up getting some more NVMEs or something
it has seemed to at least improve results slightly from what i have noticed although barely noticeable, i have also just been using it as a...
so yes :)
l2arc almost never yields useful results. you're better off just using the drive seperately.
More to the point- what is your usecase? in a homelab, its common that your bulk storage can be slow without any real impact. put your...
I have upgraded to Proxmox 9.1.7 with kernel 6.17.13-2
Then noticed the GPU wasn't working in my VM.
Trying to investigate, I tried to query `lspci`, but this commands hangs/freezes, without printing any output. It just hangs forever.
Cannot kill...
IBM Storage arrays can be one of many different solutions/topologies. It would be useful to mention what model/topology product you're referring to. Having said that- it most likely is a block device so yes, lvm would still be necessary if you're...
I didn't but will definitevly change this asap ;) One should take into account that for zswap you always need physical swap as backing device. For example if you use the defaults of PVEs installer for ZFS you will endup without space for a...
Hi,
Unfortunately, I don't have the documentation for that plugin yet; it was simply mentioned by the IBM team. I wanted to see if anyone has hands-on experience with this integration, and what the environment's performance has been like using...
