Setting up alerts in Proxmox is important and critical to making sure you are notified if something goes wrong with your servers. It's so easy, I should have done this years ago! In this tutorial, we'll set up email notifications using SMTP with Gmail or G Suite that send email alerts when there are disk errors, ZSF Issues, or when backup jobs run. We'll then test the alerts to make sure they are working by yoinking a drive from my ZFS pool (and hopefully it doesn't fail).

absolutely perfect timing! this is exactly what I'll be spending my last day in the office before the holidays doing. it always irked me that there wasn't more notification control in Prox. I have been relying on the ceph dashboard and cluster health to know when a disk goes down and it is far from ideal. And my Zabbix dashboard is not fully configured yet, so this is a perfect fix in the meantime.

What perfect timing for this guide! The "old_age" flag on several of the drives in my oldest ZFS array just got triggered a few weeks ago so it will be nice to have notification as soon as one, or more, of them throw a more urgent SMART flag. Thanks for another great guide!

@beyond990
@beyond990 Жыл бұрын
Just a quick note, the zpool clear command is used to clear the error counts on drives back to zero, it does not clear data off the drive. zfs was asking you to do this so you could see if any new errors occurred on the drive you pulled and reinserted. so you can check if it actually needs to be replaced because errors are increasing or if all is OK and can be left alone. zpool status with high error counts can often be a sign of a drive in a prefail state that SMART has not yet picked upon, but zfs has due to all the checksums zfs uses. hope that helps and saves on future heart attacks 😊

1. I love all these recommendations/ alternatives in the comments section. That's one of favorite part about home-labbing! 2. You could also use n8n. You can send the data via curl as a response to a listening webhook on the n8n server. I'm not sure if you could pull the error message from the log (i watched the video but came back for the microcenter link lol). N8n could then send out the alert via any of their options like slack, discord, mattermost, etc.

@TechnoTim Nice how to. I was able to fast forward (thanks for section labels) to the alerts setup. if you or anyone else is interested, I have a mailserver setup that uses mailjet, so 2 factor isnt required, and the emails are not marked as spam thanks to mailjet. All I had to do was configure proxmox postfix as a relay to my mailserver then turn on notifications, alerts, etc So a mailserver is an option especially if you have multiple systems you would like to have alerts setup and not having to setup each one like the how to provided. Setup one mailserver, then configure postfix on the others as a relay. Have a great day and thanks for sharing!

This video was very interesting. I had the exact same issue recently, a drive bricked itself and I noticed it later. I chose a different route to notifications: a selfhosted ntfy instance. I also ended up touching Zed, but I had to write a script to send the POST messages since ntfy is not one of the preconfigured services. I agree that Proxmox should include better alert management tools, although webhooks would not be my first choice. My ideal system would be similar to Zed: execute command X when event Y is registered. This could be adapted to any notification method and even for automating complex tasks like starting a failover in case of degraded zpool. And finally, if you want to test Zed it is a lot safer to start a scrub or a resilver manually instead of removing a drive, but you probably already knew that.

Question: you chmod the sasl_passwd file to 600, but not the sasl_passwd.db. And when you catted the file, you can see the password is still readable there. Presumably you would want to chmod it too. But does postfix run as root or does it run as its own user that you'd have to chmod the file to?

23:25 - Yes, it can resilver that fast given you put the same disk back in. One of the things you do when removing a disk is to clear the partitions / ZFS metadata so it can't recognize the drive. I would guess it recognized the disk and then at worst would have had to write the data that changed since you unplugged it (I would guess it could pick up the outstanding changes via the SLOG but don't quote me on that). That resilvering process only having to touch actual data vs a RAID which operates at the block level of the disk is one of the major optimizations in ZFS. Its supposed to at worst need to scan the tree (ZFS's equivalent of the master file table in windows) looking for differences which is exactly what it does during a scrub just in this case it knows which drive not to trust.

Everything is working but when I checked my drives as you pointed out at 18:20 it shows "SMART support is: Unavailable - device lacks smart capabilities". This happens on sda1 which is a SATA SSD where the OS is installed and sdb1 & sdc1 which are SAS HDDs used for backups. nvme0n1 does show as being supported; this is where all my VMs are installed.

Would say webhook or SNMP trap (I would much prefer webhooks) and should be a cluster-wide setting. I'm guessing the concern is depending on the failure there is risk that the alert message could be lost and that could be even worse. I'm thinking something like a node being offline and the alerts being sent from the cluster master means they aren't sent out till a new master is elected. What if something is stopping the election? I guess simplest way would be each host handles its own system / node level alerts and cluster master sends out cluster level alerts? Should be possible to push that config out via the etcd synced config and they already have the templates to change the message based on node.

Regarding Webhooks - and to be fair to the Proxmox team - they are just packaging Smartctl and ZED. They do not control these projects. The only one they totally control is their backup notifications. Absolutely yes, they can (and should) build a way to fully configure email via their GUI rather than the pain of fixing up the various config files. That is exactly what they have done for so many other aspects of configuring the tools they build upon. It should do this gracefully across the whole cluster (cluster level mailer configuration, per-host "from" config, etc). And they should push this config into the mail conigs of related tools like ZED and SmartCTL. Bush asking them to do the webhooks for those other projects is probably too big an ask.

While the major point is totally fair - that webhooking should be integrated into Prox itself - an alternative solution could be to webhook from existing monitoring solutions - e.g., Zabbix or Grafana. But of course that comes with a lot of added complexity and configuring to perform something that should be as easy as possible by nature.

I'd be interested in the pricing of the server and components. The Rack itself is quite expensive IMO, so i figured i get the profiles myself for cheap and build a case just by myself - since it is trivial, unless there is something i dont know about. Also, the servers themselves are very expensive too, so i would wonder how does someone goes about it - i got an Proliant G9 for less than a thousand, relatively happy about it, since it is relatively modern - but asked vendors for "basic but new ones" - and 10k didnt get me anywhere close to the used server i got. Another thing, would be UPS, i am kinda sick of hearing from them., since the upkeep is something you have to buy into as well - batteries turn bad. Thus, i have decided to get a laptop and let run proxmox etc. since it comes with its own UPS, basically - plus peripherals. With 2 drives in raid, it also has redundancy there and is about the same pricepoint as a PSU alone, which could not handle the load of the server(s) anyway for a meaningful time, other to power down. I'd love a video about the concept of how to go about getting a meaningful homelab - maybe it is me, as an European who has to deal with such high prices or just earn shit compared to the US, but spending 15-30k on a single server, really is not in my budget.

This is helpful. However, I utilize a custom email domain through iCloud. So the email address to authenticate is different than the email I will be sending from. Can't seem to find any Proxmox documentation on this. Any suggestions?

maybe its because LTT hacking incident. "To help keep your account secure, from May 30, 2022, ​​Google no longer supports the use of third-party apps or devices which ask you to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password."
