Looking for someone to help me with PVE, Proxmox Mail Gateway, and Proxmox Backup

Hello Everyone, I have been using Proxmox VE for some time now. I need a proxmox expert who can help me to re-IP some 20 VMS. Most are Linux, but a few are Windows. I am afraid of potentially breaking something. So, this is why I am asking Prox Experts to do the work for me. I do have a Proxmox Mail Gateway that I would like to learn and fugue out. Finally, I have Proxmox Backup. The backup server…

Heads-up: newly-granted ACLs take ~1s to take effect — scripted PVE storage adds need a retry

Posting this as a note for anyone scripting PBS setup, since the symptom looks identical to several well-documented problems but has a different cause. Setup: PBS 4.2.5 in an unprivileged LXC, three standalone PVE 9.2.6 hosts, one per-host API token, Datastore.Backup on the datastore path. I scripted adding PBS as storage on all three hosts. All three failed with: Code: create storage failed:…

Unofficial updater script for Proxmox VE (HOST / LXC / VM )

Hi all, I made an Update Script, with it you can update all LXC Containers within an Host or within your hole Cluster. https://github.com/BassT23/Proxmox The Script will run headless, so you can run it with a cron job or similar, if you want.

LVM-Thin - remove whitespace from VM disk

Let s say I have a VM running on PVE, which stores some files for me. For the sake of the example, we ll say that it is 100GB of DMG files and 50GB of PDF files, on the same virtual disk located on a LVM-Thin volume. I use PVE s built in backup solution and save the backups to a regular SMB share on an offsite NAS, and the backup is roughly 150GB in size. One day I decide that I do not need the…

Single port on NIC randomly disconnecting

Hey, i am running a 3 node PVE + Ceph Cluster on 3x Minesforum MS-A2. The nodes are running identical hardware. On one of the 3 nodes At supposedly random times one 2.5Gbit Port on a RTL8125 2.5GbE Controller (rev 05) NIC disconnects. The affected port is used for the guest traffic thats probably the only reason why i even noticed it in the first place lol. All other NICs (2x Ceph), even the other…

Very high pvestatd CPU usage

Hi all, I m very new here so sorry if this is a dumb thread I was looking at the CPU time used by the processes on my Proxmox host, and I noticed that over the last 90 days the `pvestatd` daemon used 5 days and a half of CPU time: Code: # systemctl status pvestatd.service ● pvestatd.service - PVE Status Daemon Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/pvestatd.service; enabled; preset: enabled)…

I am moving my homelab from docker containers to proxmox VE VMs. my motivation is to be able to backup whole folders / images more easily and not have 5 or 6 different postgres containers at the same time. A secondary goal would be to learn mopre about virtualization (Okey knowledge). My goal is to have a stable drive to use. i had prior issues with bad disks failing and breaking my filesystem. i…

Adding NFS v4 Share to Proxmox Cluster Fails if NFS Server Does Not Support NFSv3 Connections: Looking to Confirm Behavior Before Reporting Bug

Hello, I have an up-to-date TrueNAS SCALE bare metal server running that I m using to, among other things, store LXC templates and ISOs for Proxmox. I initially configured TrueNAS s NFS service to disable NFS v3, as I knew Proxmox supported v4.2 and that s what I wanted to use. However, Proxmox was only able to see the server , but not list exported shares of the NFS v4-only server. I had to…

WARNING! Do not use PBS with Kernel 7 on a Synology NAS

Hi Community, although officially not supported or best practice I know that many people (like me) are running PBS in a VM on a Synology NAS for their backups of their homelabs. I had zero issues with this in the last 18 months. Two days ago a backup session suddenly failed with a non-writable datastore. The datastore mount fell back into emergency-ro without a further reason. I ran an e2fsck on…

Proxmox uefibios konfigurieren

Hallo Forum! Ich verzweifele dabei in einer win 11 vm in die uefibios einstellungen zu kommen. Nach etlichen reboots der vm und esc stakkatos habe ich es nicht geschafft in die einstellungen zu kommen. Ich habe auch schon die "Tasten" auf der Seite in der Konsole probiert. Ich muß die Bildschirmauflösung einstellen (blöd genug das das nur im uefi bios geht.) Vor jahren bei Vmware gab es in der Vm…

How do I move a raw disk image from LVM-thin?

I encountered an error trying to start one of my containers; the error had something to do with space shortage on the container which I didn t understand because there should ve been enough space for that container and there weren t that much things on it, so I tried deleting that container so that I could restore it from my backup. When I restored it, I found that the data I had on a pair of…

New 7.0.14-12-pve kernel as of August 11 2026

Greetings! I saw the new kernel for upgrade and looked at the most recent GIT changes and there seems like a boatload of files were modified 2 days ago. Is it an accurate understanding of all the patches to say that this is a massive roll-up fix release? Considering the ovpn patches which are numerically the latest [0101-0103] appear to be from May. And, is also be correct to say that all of the…

New PVE 9 node shows "unknown"/offline in GUI from PVE 7/8 nodes, despite cluster status/quorum being OK

Hi all, I added a new node to my existing PVE cluster ( mixed versions — most nodes are 8.x, one is still 7.x, and the new node is 9.2.2). Context: the node name "pve8" was previously used by a different physical node, which I properly removed from the cluster via `pvecm delnode` some time ago. I ve now reused that name for a new node, installed fresh with PVE 9.2.2, with a new/different IP…
