    Proxmox cluster multicast with crossover connection over second NIC?

    Thanks for your quick response. This seems very interesting (als the suggested feature above costs extra money). Will the two or three cluster servers still have to be in the same network? Or what are the prerequisites for this?

    Proxmox cluster multicast with crossover connection over second NIC?

    Hi, I´d like to create a proxmox cluster in the data center of my server provider. They said that multicast isn´t possible, but they suggested to connect the two servers I´d like to build the cluster of with a crossover cable at a second network interface card. They say, that I can use multicast...

    How to remove zombie OpenVZ container?

    Hello, on my ProxMox VE 1.9 production machine I have one OpenVZ container running a small Debian system I don´t need anymore. But the problem is that it is unstoppable. It runs at 24% CPU usage and 32MB of RAM, but I see no way to halt it. I already tried the web interface commands as well as...

    Suggestion for Proxmox software firewall

    Thanks for your answers. I now tried for days to implement shorewall on ProxMox correctly. The basis configuration works (protection of the host node, only access to SSH and web frontend). But accessing the virtual machines doesn´t. I tried some guides...

    Suggestion for Proxmox software firewall

    I have a ProxMox VE server running without a physical firewall in front of it. I know that this would be better, but by now it isn´t possible. I want to use KVM and OpenVZ machines on the ProxMox host. What can I do to protect ProxMox and the virtual machines in the best way?

    How to use the hardware soundcard in an OpenVZ container?

    Connection to Proxmox slow and often lost

    Yesterday I put a new network interface card (1Gbit) into the server and now it really runs. Copying file to or from the server was really slow before (around 50kByte/s), now it is much faster. And I didn´t have any problems like the above since then :-)
