That's a good observation. Turns out I was looking at the wrong bulk action -- the endpoints, and therefore code executed, is different if you use the `Bulk Actions` on the Datacenter level (Datacenter->Bulk Action) or the node level...
Then you are still vulnerable due to the known and unknown security issues in PVE8 (which is EOL) and Debian Bookworm. The fix is to upgrade to the latest supported version of PVE aka PVE9 with every updated installed. Everything else is just...
The local controller is a Dell HBA330 Mini.
The hardware isn't showing any signs of suffering.
I think it's a big problem that the software can't take advantage of the hardware it has available, don't you think?
I created it, and everything is...
Hey everyone,
I wanted to share a working procedure for installing NVIDIA drivers on Proxmox VE 9.2.10 with Kernel 7.0.x when using legacy Pascal-architecture GPUs (specifically the Quadro P620).
I spent hours fighting and researching, and I'm...
Under Proxmox 9.2 the header is now proxmox-headers and I had success when I changed this line to:
apt install -y build-essential dkms proxmox-headers-$(uname -r)
Hi everyone, I plan to replace the hardware on a Proxmox Backup Server because the hardware is outdated. However, a tape library is also connected to this PBS, which will not be replaced but is supposed to be moved from the old server to the new...
Which is the official support status of doing PVE QEMU backups with PBS and other backup solutions?
Specifically, would like to know the support status from Proxmox PBS for:
Veeam
Hornetsecurity (Altaro)
Nakivo
There are a few use cases that...

I think the recommendation to match the number of VM sockets to the number of host NUMA nodes is a bit too easy to misinterpret.
Personally, I would use 1 socket as the default and only expose multiple vNUMA nodes to a guest if the VM is...
Anything after 6.19 is affected. 6.17.13-21 has the same CPU vulnerability mitigations as 7.0.14, as opposed to 6.14.x kernels which are missing some mitigations that 6.17.x and 7.0.x cover.
Thank you for your reply.
Just to clarify, its not apt upgrade on pve's that is struggling, its the apt upgrades with unattended upgrades inside the ubuntu VMs.
Yes,this is the setup we have used for many years (If the NUMA option is used, it...
I couldn't reproduce this. On my side, with 4 containers (no Start/Shutdown order set) and max-workers at the default of 4, all four kick off at once and finish in a couple of seconds - no serial behavior. I also printed the worker count in the...
According to the docs: "If the NUMA option is used, it is recommended to set the number of sockets tothe number of nodes of the host system." Have you tried that and checked how it changes your situation/problem...
Thanks to the Proxmox team for reviewing my report. At least they took it seriously, unlike the users on this forum who think that a Debian 11 installation is hacked simply because it's EOL (and no, the OpenSSH bug doesn't affect Debian 11; it's...
Hi all,
We have a question regarding best practices and recommended settings for NUMA and the number of CPU sockets assigned to a VM.
We need to support memory hot-plug, which means we are currently running these VMs with NUMA=1. Our...
Found it. It is a complete compromise of the web interface. No pre-requisites, just a vulnerable proxmox version.
There was a bug patched in pve-access-control (potentially by accident) in 2023.
I will submit it to MITRE so a CVE can be issued...
I disagree. I think it's more toxic to have EOL systems (like PVE7) on the Internet. It makes the world for all a worse place. I also think it's toxic to register accounts to cry about about an "Proxmox security issue" which quite obviouvsly...
Systems without current system updates can be hacked, nothing is "new" or "urgent" on this. And PVE7 and PVE8 won't get any security updates any more so it's somehow expected that they get owned. Even if you don't connect them directly to the...
The usual use of the zero-day term is for vulnerabilities that are being exploited while there is no fix yet (for a supported/current version). That is something the administrator cannot do much about. This vulnerability is probably already fixed...
