This server (DELL POWEREDGE T610) came from my high school, the leaving administrator passed it on to me as a testing platform to enhance my exposure and to get my foot through the door into IT administration. I spent two weeks learning from him...
I'll do more research for this, and if I must use a older version then such must be done. This server isn't seeing the light of day anyway (staying connected to a local network with no outside passthrough).
fyi DELL POWEREDGE T610
The drives are not all DELL firmware enabled, I have one of four drives that are DELL and the rest are WD Red Nasware drives. They were all able to be wiped with zeros by shredOS before being decommissioned. I currently...
I'm not sure this will help at all, but I had ALL kinds of trouble trying to set up a Dell R720. I ended up purchasing an SSD and a CD style mounting bracket, then removing the CD rom and putting the SSD in that slot, using the CD rom...
Hi Onslow, thanks for getting back to me. I can confirm for the time being that Windows Server 2012 works (seeing how file sharing is working as of today), will try to install Fedora or Linux Mint as a test now. (8 minutes until USB creation...
daanw - you are correct. It seems an upgrade to the newest kernel and my fusion-io drivers did not agree. Thanks to Vladimir for helping with DKMS driver removal and reinstallation. I had to:
Get the versions installed with DKMS by requesting...
Hello,
I know hyperthreading comes up from time to time, and I have read several of the other messages about it over time, but the recommendations I've seen a few times don't seem to hold up with our testing, so I hope you don't mind me asking...
Busy database with huge number of the cpu cores? Solution:
1] disable HT
or
2] don't overallocate nonHT cores to VM+PVE
The HT cores aren't for busy/fast/etc workloads, but for idle/low workloads mainly (so you can overallocate low power VMs).

No, it's about making efficient scheduled incremental backups without additional second machine powered on all the time.
From my experience, a PBS LXC can run without any problems with 512MB of RAM assigned, not even fully using that.
The 16GB...
Hi everyone,
Built(with Cursor) this little migration helper to make VMware -> Proxmox moves less painful, mainly for Windows 11 VDI batches (but it works for Windows Server guests too). The main goal is controlled parallel imports, so you can...
I believe that is supposed to update the available packages. PVE also does that on a periodic basis. What happens if you do "apt update" from the command line? What error do you get?
Just to be clear...the way terminals work is they use fixed-size character cells. So many lines by so many columns. This information is communicated to the remote end so it knows how much room there is on the display. The remote end has limited...
Thats an observable fact :) but when you say
It is explicitly a different message; I believe you come from a genuine place and want to help people- please expound on WHAT you feel is the risk is here. I think that would settle both your point...
may you check first if the "slowness" is a generally issue or configuration issue
for instance: i made an config wrong and the ceph was between 30 to 60 seconds down to 0 seconds (no joke, it just pops up the dialog windows and shows in the next...
To pin a kernel and prevent upgrade:
sudo proxmox-boot-tool kernel list
then inset your desired kernel to be pinned with
sudo proxmox-boot-tool kernel pin <version to be pinned from list above>
Now your kernel will stay pinned until unpinned with...
