Is your link between Proxmox and the NAS routed through that pfSense VM? I would created a non routed link between Proxmox and the NAS on the same VLAN.
I’ve used remote PBS sync on relatively low speed links, though not that slow, and it’s been fine.
There is a setting in the sync job for the number of backups per VM to sync e.g. 1.
IIRC we did find putting CODEL shaping on that connection in...
I know this doesn't answer the question directly, but to overcome this I have setup a local PBS to which I backup my machines locally.
From this local PBS I sync to a remote PBS instance. This offsite PBS is behind a slow connection (VPN over...
Sending notifications for exceeding storage limits is not possible with the current PBS feature set, using external monitoring is the best way to achieve this [0].
FWIW there is some development work in adding protections for datastores running...
Just to make sure I understand the setup correctly: are you planning to use an SSHFS-mounted directory as the PBS datastore, rather than running a PBS instance at the remote site with local storage attached?
An uneducated guess, and one that assumes the 'vma_writer_close: close failed - Host is down' is not what's implied! But, could your live guest backup be failing because you do not have qemu agent installed (VMs) or enabled (PVE guest config)...
Hi Tmanok,
thanks, those are good suggestions. There are two details from our earlier troubleshooting that I should add:
We have already tested the other ALUA path. We took the active A0/nic6 path offline, forcing the workload over B0/nic8. The...
Ceph volume can impact latency and corosync is very sensitive, hence the recommendation to use a dedicated NIC. Note Corosync can also use additional/backup links.
Proxmox users:
It seems this thread has not had much added to it in a while and it has recently become of interest to me as I have a Mac Mini 2018 that is heading towards being unsupported from a macOS purview soon. Moreover, I do want to get an...
Jonas, et alia:
I have cleaned up my cluster, removing node 1 and fixing node 4 and it seems now to be stable.
I am getting ready to start taking the smaller NUC cluster members I have out of service and migrate to using more x3650 server grade...
Hi everyone,
I have some pretty basic PVE host for doing some tests with Docker, VMs, using it as backup storage, because it simply has enough room for HDDs etc. It's more like a fun project. My backup approach is pretty basic: ZFS snapshots and...
Sorry, but this has nothing to do with PVE itself. If everyone starts to ask os specific questions for their virtual machines because they run on PVE the forum will explode. You won’t call your car dealer if you’re stuck in heavy traffic. Just a...
