Hi, I've moved my Proxmox 1.7 server cluster from my home office to a data center, and now the web interface responds very slowly. Now my face looks like this: :mad: Everything else seems to run quickly: SSH, the VNC terminals, virtual machine performance seems fine. Things that have...

Just installed Proxmox on a new server with a Intel L3650 CPU. Proxmox is showing 8 CPUS when I believe I should see 4. CPU(s)8 x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU L5630 @ 2.13GHz Anyone have any insight on this? Does this indicate a problem I need to fix? As always thanks for reading.

I'm thinking about installing Proxmox on a sata flash device like this one: http://www.amazon.com/7-pin-Flash-Drive-Module-Type-1/dp/B003C50AEQ The advantages are fast read, reliability, frees up extra drive space in the front of the case for storage drives and low energy consumption. I'm...

I'm putting together hardware for my production cluster. I've been looking at a Supermicro Twin^2 which is a barebones server that puts four servers in one 2U case sharing one redundant PS. It seems good, except for the Intel ICH10R fakeraid, which I doubt is going to run well under Proxmox...

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone is running Proxmox on one of these Dell PowerEdge R510 servers. It seems like I always have to go with CentOS on Dell servers ... :(

When I attach a UPS to my Proxmox server are there any special considerations to setting it up. I'm thinking that when the UPS signals the server to shutdown, should I also be sending a signal to each guest OS to shutdown cleanly?

I used dd to create a raw copy of Windows 2003 server. I did run the ide reg file but when I open it in Proxmox VE I'm getting the dreaded BSOD: STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF789EA94,0xC0000034,0x00000000,0x00000000) I tried using Acronis TrueImage to inject the HAL drivers, but it didn't work. I'm...

I'd like to be able to set the disk caching properties in the web gui. The caching properties are: -writeback: highest performance, high risk of data corruption on power failure. -writethough: uses host paging file, has perfomance problems with qcow2. -none: no host caching. -default...

What are the best practices for a Windows 2003 guest? I've been googling for a while now and found a lot of contradictory information. Please give me your opinion and the benefit of your experience. Of course one of the great things about Windows 2003 is that once you activate your license...

I'm trying to work out a method of using cygwin dd and shadow copy to create an image of a live 2003 server for p2v conversion. Shadow copy only gives us partition data, so the image isn't bootable. So my idea is this: 1) Use dd to copy the first 32k of the actual boot disk. 2) Use dd to copy...

I've been getting some strange results when I run benchmarks on one of my Windows 2003 virtual machines. I'm seeing throughput of 350 MB/s on a virtual disk. Only about 260 MB/s faster than the real (host) disk speed. I've used hdparm -t under Cygwin and HD Tune Pro, and I'm getting similar...

I've currently installed VMware Server on a laptop, so I copy the disk image to a USB drive, convert the image, then copy the new image to the Proxmox VE server. I tried just pulling the .exe off my install, but it does depend on some libraries, so it's not too portable. VMware Server has a...

Hi, I'm trying to convert a Windows 2003 server using VMware vCenter Converter Standalone. When create a VMware Server 2x image and convert it using: qemu-img convert -f vmdk win2003-pve.vmdk -O qcow2 win2003-pve.qcow2I get a disk won't boot error in bios. I tried recreating the image as a...

The e1000 driver links are dead: The closest I could find for my Windows 2003 server are these XP embedded example drivers: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=7283&lang=eng Anyone have any better links?

I uploaded the virtio iso, but I can't seem to get it mounted on my Windows 2003 guest. I tried modifying the cdrom device via the web interface, but it didn't seem to update in windows. Then I rebooted the virtual machine, and it doesn't come up as it's trying to boot the cd. I have the boot...

I have a couple of DVD images I have tried to upload without luck, I just get a permanent "Please wait...". Is there anything I need to do to enable upload? Or better can I just sftp the images over? Where do I put them?

I'm trying to convert a 2003 server to a virtual machine. I've run mergeide.reg, and created an image using Selfimage, transferred it to the proxmox server. I've got a 2003 virtual machine set up on the proxmox web interface. What's next? Do I need to convert the .img file Selfimage...
