All jobs are executed by a cron job. A Proxmox VE host default setting is, if a 
cron job generate output, send this output to the root email address.

But you can configure cron as you need it. send an email or write to syslog.

Extra login could be done if you edit the cron job in /etc/cron.d/pve-zsync and 
give all pve-zsync jobs a -verbose parameter.

I see this is an undocumented feature so I will send a patch.

With Proxmox VE already have all config files in plaintext under /etc/pve
node local VMs: /etc/pve/qemu-server
node local CTs: /etc/pve/lxc

For specific nodes the same directories can be found under:
/etc/pve/nodes/NODENAME/
(the two above are actually just magic symlinks to the local latter)

You can copy just those if you wish, if the storage names are the
same on both names you should be able to just start it then.

FYI, our CLI tools can output also the configuration via:

qm config VMID
pct config VMID

No, once a VMID.conf gets added to the qemu-server or lxc directory,
respectively, the are known to PVE and can be directly used.
It may take a few seconds until it pops up in the webUI.

See: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pmxcfs.html
for a bit more info about our configuration file system.

[PVE-User] migrate *just* config of VM between unclustered PVE servers?

[Alexis Huxley]

I'm currently using KVM and libvirt with two *unclustered* servers and
shared storage [*], but am considering migrating to Proxmox because
I want to switch to lighter weight containers.

At the moment, with libvirt, on the first server I create a VM and
run 'virsh dumpxml ', copy the resulting XML over to the
second server (or write it to the shared storage) and run 'virsh
define ' and then the VM is available on both servers.
I then manually start the VM on one server only.

What is the equivalent procedure for Proxmox? (Ideally a procedure
that works for both KVM-based VMs and containers.)

I was hoping that vzdump might have a '--config-only' option and
that there would be a 'vzload' command, but I don't find either
of these things. Googling turns up plenty of results for migrating
the entire VM, but I really want *only* the config, not the image /
container tree.

If it's as simple as rsyncing over some directories, then is it then
necessary to 'nudge' the GUI, to get it to notice the changes?

Thanks!

Alexis

[*] The shared storage is DRBD running in primary/primary mode with
OCFS2 filesystem on top. It's obviously not immune to split brain,
but recovery is straightforward and very rare. It's been quite
suitable for home, but IO is relatively slow.

I would be interested in this too.

Hello,
Does anyone know a decent way of logging pve-zsync status? For failure or how 
long it took to run the sync?

Thanks
