Proxmox 8.3 and Veeam 12.3 restore issue
Hi,
I'm trying to restore some VMs to a Proxmox 8.3 new deployment. They were backed up using VBR 12.3 on a vSphere 8 hypervisor and restoring with the same version of VBR to PVE. I'm having some errors with the entire VM restores to PVE though. There's no pattern as such that I can fine, although larger VMs (~6TB) seems to be failing after 1:14 to 1:15 minutes give or take a minute. Support suggest it's something within Proxmox which it may well be, however I'm wondering if anyone else has...

Storage configuration for Snapshots and RAW files.
Hello,
Is it possible to use a different location to store RAW files and snapshots files?
I mean, I have two SSD: 2To and 1To.
I would like to use the 2To to store all my VM's (LVM, raw files) and use my 1To only for snapshots files and backup files.
Is it possible as my 2To use RAW file format and my 1To use QCOW2 file format?
Thanks,

Delete stuck snapshot
Hi there,
I have an old snapshot on my system, which won't delete. It's not being used and he status says 'delete' but is appears stuck. If I try and delete it again in the GUI the delete fails, and the VM is locked.
I have to unlock the vm manually on the command line.
Could someone tell me how to manually delete the snapshot from the command line?
Thank you in advance

Feature Request: advanced restore options in GUI
What I'm missing are more advanced options when restoring backups:
1.) a way to set the target storage for each individual virtual disk
Right now you can only choose a single target storage and all virtual disks will be restored to that storage. But often my VMs got virtual disks on different storages. Lets for example say I got a HDD storage for cold data and a SSD storage for hot data and my VM got one virtual disk on each storage. Now when I restore such a VM I need to choose...

PureStorage FlashArray + Proxmox VA + Multipath
Hi Proxmox enthusiasts!
I faced an issue with iSCSI fault tolerance in Proxmox. The current version of Proxmox lacks native support for iSCSI with multipath, which is critical for maintaining infrastructure reliability. To address this, I decided to create a custom plugin, which is now available for everyone on GitHub.
We use PureStorage FlashArray FA-X20R3 (datasheet) and Proxmox VE v8. This plugin has already proven helpful in solving many storage management...

performance/limit of vm template references, how dynamically assign vgpu to vm
I would like to know if this is possible with proxmox. Let's say we have a server with 4x RTX 5000 cards and also local U.3 SSD storage. Would it be possible to create one vm template and create 64 vms (based on this template) and can you also create these vms with dynamically assign a vgpu on creation? Or do you need to do this with a separate commandline or API call or is that also possible with the proxmox GUI? Are there any performance issues when using vm templates or are there any...

IPv6 SLAAC (autoconfig) for "management" only ?
Kind of hard to make a succinct title for what I'm trying to ask.
I have my PVE with vmbr0 and a static IPv4. I use this for management. None of my other vmbr*'s have any IPs at all (they are pure layer 2 for guests). I do have RAs coming in these VLANs as I have multiple segments here.
I see in the config, there doesn't seem to be a way to say auto/SLAAC. It seems like the GUI just wants a static address for IPv6.
I do know how to set this in /etc/network/interfaces. However with...

Cluster migration network question
While reading up on the cluster manager settings here
"By default, Proxmox VE uses the network in which cluster communication takes place to send the migration traffic. This is not optimal both because sensitive cluster traffic can be disrupted and this network may not have the best bandwidth available on the node."
I'm now curious if I need to set a dedicated migration network. I ask as I have had zero issues with the cluster, or migrating instances, it has run rock solid since...
