rc.local does not execute at startup.

$

0
I need to automount sshfs so I added needed line to rc.local file.
My problem is only the rc.local not executing (although it is 755 and so should be executed). I don't have the map problem.
if I run "/etc/rc.local" from shell, it correctly executes! It just doesn't run at boot

Hello all,

first, thanks for your fantastic product. I'm doing a test lab with latest proxmox version. All seems to work nice but I got some errors since yesterday when I want to backup VM or move a drive

I got this error on all VM (I tried with running or stopped VM)
Code:

root@proxmox02:~# vzdump 207 --remove 0 --mode snapshot --compress lzo --storage Backups0402

Strange problem with 2008 R2 and migration between nodes.

$
0
0
Hello guys,

we've just set up a 3 node cluster using the subcription enterprise repository (if that makes any difference):

Node1: Socket 1155, i5-2500K
Node2: Socket 755, Q6600
Node3: Socket i3-3220

I know the hardware isn't actually server level but that shouln't matter here.

Problem:

- Windows 2008 R2 64bit set up on node1. Working with virtio drivers
- Migrated to node2: not booting, black screen with blinking cursor after BIOS
- Migrated to node3: booting normally

vm configuration:

Code:

args: -cpu kvm64,+nx
bootdisk: sata0
cores: 2
ide2: none,media=cdrom
memory: 4096
name: win2
net0: virtio=E2:3C:DB:93:D8:14,bridge=vmbr0
onboot: 1
ostype: win7
sockets: 1
virtio0: vms:104/base-104-disk-1.qcow2/107/vm-107-disk-1.qcow2,format=qcow2,size=75G

I tried playing around with args and cpu setting without any difference.

After that I set up a NEW 2008 R2 installation from the SAME template (in regards to drivers installed etc.) on node1. Only difference to the troubled vm is some IIS configuration that has been done and windows activation. Migrated that new machine to node2: working without any problems.

Only that main vm is having trouble after migration and I can't find out where to look. Any ideas?

External SSL in Proxmox

Hello,
How can i install external SSL certificates such from Comodo into Proxmox? I found this Proxmox wiki http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/HTTPSCer...eConfiguration but it talked about 3 files needed. I only have 2 which i got from Comodo ca.crt and bundle.crt. There is no PEM for me.
Can this comodo certificate be installed on Proxmox ?
Thanks!

Shutdown delay for VMs ?

$
0
0
Hello to all,

as is described here
http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Virtual_...vior#Task_logs

you can set startup delay, which is the time which VMs are waiting to start one after another. This works also if startup delay is not set individually for each VMs as there is some default time.

But there is no setting for SHUTDOWN DELAY, only Shutdown timeout which is time qm is waiting before killing machines.
When you shutdown host server, all VMs are shutting down immediatelly, which is not healthy for harddrives, if you shut down 20 machines or so at once.

My Question is:
Can shutdown delay be set somewhere?
Also what is the Startup delay default time and can be this one set somewhere globally ?

VZDump errors

I've had no issues on a previous server using LZO (snapshot) method to backup VM/CT's. On a new server it doesn't work.

I commonly get this error with regards to the remote NFS server
Code:

pvestatd[4596]: WARNING: command 'df -P -B 1 /mnt/pve/Bq1' failed: got timeout
This comes up over and over, and doesn't seem to effect whether it works or not. I attribute it to the distance (Germany to US).

I can use Gzip (snapshot) method, but LZO (snapshot) fails with these errors

lvm - drbd - lvm

$

Hi guys,

I'd like to get some opinions on how to best combine lvm and drbd.

lvm -> drbd

or

drbd -> lvm

or

lvm -> drbd -> lvm

What are the advantages of these combinations?
From my understanding:

lvm -> drbd : provides me an easy way to resize the underlying lvm partition without risk.

drbd -> lvm : gives me more flexibility on every single VMs LV

lvm -> drbd -> lvm : gives me the best of both worlds at the cost of extra complexity. I can resize the underlying partitions and also individuality easy manage every VMs LV.


What setup are you running and why?
Should I be concerned by bad performance if I go for the nested lvm -> drbd -> lvm concept?

Tried getting their qcow2 image running under proxmox but got stuck at "booting from hard disk..." prompt upon boot. Any thoughts on how to get this working?

Setup a new VM using Linux 3.2/2.6 OS (also tried Other OS), virtio disk of 20GB size, virt networking.

Overwrote original qcow2 file created by proxmox with downloaded OSV qcow2 image. Booted, but stuck at boot.

Thanks in advance for any help.

How do I connect using Spice?

Hello,

I'm testing the use of Raspberry Pi Thin Clients (they can't PXE boot) using a project from http://rpitc.blogspot.ca. It's a debian based system that has SPICE GTK+ 0.20 Client (virt-viewer 0.5.7) installed on it.

So if I change my video in my KVM VM on Proxmox to allow Spice and assuming I'm using a Windows VM with the Spice client installed..how do I connect to this VM using the spice client installed on the Pi? When I click on the client on the Pi I'm given a window that looks for a webpage.

Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi,
using chrome to access proxmox i was receiving the message about the unknown certificate.
So i imported it in my windows pc.
Now i receive the warning message that the certificate is invalid because it is for myserver.local (the name entered during installation of the server) but i'm calling 192.168.1.100:8006. The message warning me that i have reached a wrong server.

Where i'm making a mistake?

Thank you!

[SOLVED] sheepdog storage only available on some pve nodes

$

i have a 5 node cluster (not HA yet) thats slowly growing

i've been looking at shared storage without requiring SAN's and am all but settled on sheepdog as an option

2 of my servers are not really adequate for running sheepdog so i want to avoid installing on those nodes and not allow booting of sheepdog based VM's on those servers or creation for that matter

because i currently have to add sheepdog storage direct into /etc/pve/storage.cfg - how do I only allow it to be available on specific nodes as you can do in the GUI when adding normal storage?

initially i'm wanting to do some real world tests with a proper cluster (i don't have enough test devices in the lab) so true HA isn't critical at this stage as i wont be testing failover aspects, just performance and reliability

Staff nice day, my name is Tácio Andrade and I am a novice user in Proxmox. Yesterday I first tried to create a cluster with Proxmox Proxmox 3.0 system and 3.1 that had just installed. However after a few problems in the integration, occurring over a grave error and files in the / etc / vz / conf / disappeared. The vms are running at the moment and I have the same backup are Saturday, any idea what should I do to not lose the VMs in the event of a reboot?


I went on the node that would be the secondary, but apparently was as master, and went to see the directory, however the output was as follows:

root@isaias:~# ls -l /etc/pve/nodes/joao/openvz/
total 0

PS: I'm desperate here, because these VMs are in production. = S
