I thought I would finally try a VM setup with cockpit and figured it would be easy. Cockpit installed easily, but getting virtual machines running has not so far been easy. I'm finding that I can't get even a simple alpine machine to start and it seems to be related to file permissions for the...

This is my first post here - I couldn't decide if this should go in DIY and Makers, General Chat, or here. I went through Guides, but didn't see anything along these lines. I'm looking to replace my obsolete home server with a server + NAS combination. Looking for references where I can learn...

Hi, So I have been looking at how much lanes each of my pcie cards were using and saw something I am not sure about. I have 3 cards in my server. 1 Quadro P400 , a LSI 9201-8i and a Realtek 2.5gb/s nic with 2 ports. My cpu is a Ryzen 5 2600 which has 20 pcie lanes. My worries is that when...

I have an EPYC/Supermicro server build with the below specs running ESXi 7.0 U2 and have been using GPU pass through to provide a 3070 to my Ubuntu Server VM. This has worked flawlessly for about 6 months until a few days ago when the GPU spontaneously is no longer recognized by the Nvidia...

Hey, curious about how to get distributed volumes to span several devices. Unfortunately haven't seen much literature about this. I'm actually using Ubuntu instead of Oracle Linux, but the setup procedure appears virtually identical. Here's what I'm following, which seems to be the best...

Hi, I’ve been using snap for at least over a year now without any problems and it was great. Recently I decided to reinstall my system to ubuntu 20.04 but with ZFS as a file system. Since then I have weird problems with snap. After a restart I cannot launch any of my applications installed via...

Hell everyone, I went to upgrade my DL380p from Ubuntu 19.04lts to 20.04lts. Once I needed to reboot, the server came back up and I watched it through the remote console, it hit 100% on the initial screen then just went blank. I saw the post codes on the bottom of the console and post did...

Hi, I have several drives connected to a AsRock X470D4U motherboard (3 PCIe slots) using HP H220 HBA (MPT2BIOS-7.39.02.00, IT mode) and SuperMicro BPN-SAS-216A backplane. The drives are configured into a ZFS array in Ubuntu 19.10, and `lsblk` and `zpool status` both shows all the drives as...

I posted this on Dell's community as well but no responses as yet. So I think I have a serious problem that I need any help I can get. I don't know if the H310, the SAS cables, the enclosure, or the drives are bad. I will explain. I purchased a re-purposed R820 with an H310 and 10 1TB...

Hello, I've been using Virtualmin for a while and i cant seem to find a forum that is active enough to learn something new. If anyone has been using Virtualmin for a while on a host like Digitalocean and whatnot, you come to realize that storage space is a problem. Unless you want to be...

Hello, I'm having a bit of trouble with this workflow and was wondering if anyone would be able to help me troubleshoot. There were several threads I came across, but this one is the closest to what I'm experiencing. I'm trying to install and boot from Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS amd64 on my NVMe...
