I'm hitting a consistent roadblock trying to back up a specific 100GB Ubuntu VM (VM 601) to my Proxmox Backup Server. The backup consistently stalls or terminates right around the 21% to 23% mark, which subsequently causes the PBS Web UI to...
That's all a bit DIY to put it politely. Note that one still has to edit /etc/chrony/chrony.conf if one wants to stop it from even talking to servers on the internet. I am really quite surprised that the web GUI has a "Time" option for the...
@Davidegb You need to send me a way to give you money for a coffee or beer (seriously). You absolutely just saved me.
My results were slightly different than yours however. Kernel 7.0.6-2-pve did NOT resolve my situation. However DOWNGRADING...
Update — root cause found
My previous conclusion was inaccurate. Here is the full picture after more investigation today.
Reproduction
On any 6.17.13-x kernel, with pve-qemu-kvm 11.0.0-4, a sustained NFS write load (e.g. 4× parallel dd or cp)...
For external USB-Drivves you can check the part for the removable data stores:

For Syncing this would be a good entry point...
I am trying to configure nvme/tcp for my truenas scale installation, and the plugin, as well as the manual storage configuration seems to be failing with a 101 error. I think this may be because I am using non-standard ports for my truenas...
i could be incorrect but proxmox documentation basically states you need two networks, you really need two if you plan to ever update one of your switches

We recommend a...
Corosync doesn’t need a redundant network. You can configure multiple networks for backup.
read through https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/fabu-can-i-use-ceph-in-a-_very_-small-cluster.159671/ and consider at least 4 nodes.
Hi Marc, here is my experience
Are there particular server models that have proven reliable for PVE/Ceph deployments?
All of the servers have the same stuff going on under the covers, pick the vendor you like best. My experience is supermicro...
Correct, the auto-loading of the CD drivers was detecting normally during install for the disk drivers. The SPICE driver is only needed if you use the SPICE access from proxmox GUI for a smoother console experience, for RDP/other remote access...
I ran into similar odd issues but can confirm no issues using the Virtio-win-0.1.215 version of the ISO
Only weird thing to note is even after running the installer on the ISO, I had to manually install the correct SPICE driver (if in use) from...
Iirc, one reason was to prevent clashes with potentially pre-existing configuration files in /etc. We could maybe implement specifiying the base path for the generated files to circumvent that and enable generation of the link files in /etc?
Hi all,
I've been trying for some time to solve this "error fetching datastores" that I keep getting but as of today I haven't found any solution myself.
I was wondering if anyone could steer my into the right direction.
So I'm pretty new to...
@fiona Ok good to know....Just curious as to what would be acceptable IO Delay? Is it still <=5%? or has this changed?
Can we still have spikes that go over 5% briefly? or is this still not a good sign?
Hello. Sorry I just got your message now. About a half hour ago I was able to get the distribution updated and I installed prxmox-ve and I got the GUI again. I still get the error - same as before - but at least I can now properly backup my...
I run PBS on a VM in Proxmox with a dedicated datastore drive passed through. I actually have 2 of these 1 as the primary, the other as a sync. I snaphot both these VMs and can move them around with their associated drives as needed. Very...
