    How to differentiate between KVM CPU models and select appropiately?

    We've recently discovered the performance improvements for choosing a CPU model which most closely matches our cluster. I want to work out the best way to determine the correct 'lowest' cpu model for the cluster. We have both: Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6140 CPU and Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6330N CPU...

    PVE8 - Change to IOMMU/Passthrough?

    Recently upgraded from PMX7 (Proxmox Version 7 or PVE7) to PMX8 (Proxmox Version 8 or PVE8), and I noticed the passthrough doesn't seem to work the same way in the UI it used to. <= PVE7, the way you knew IOMMU/etc wasn't working is that in the UI, the "MAPPED DEVICES" dropdown would be empty...

    Time synchronisation between PVE node/host and VM/guest without access to the Internet

    Hey everyone! As far as I understand, my Proxmox 7 cluster, installed on top of a Debian 11 Bullseye, uses systemd-timesyncd to keep the clock in sync via external NTP servers, configured either in /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf or in a separate file inside /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf.d/. All of...

    Nested Hyper-V (Windows 10) with KVM?

    Hi, Been debugging why my Windows 10 machine (VM) is so darn slow. Found this, and it solved the issue. So far so good - until I tried to run a VM in Hyper-V on that same Windows 10 guest. Turns out you need to use host and not any of the other CPU types. It was absolutely flying on...

    VM templates? ISO repository?

    Hello, there is already user-friendly system for downloading and deployment of CT templates. Why don't we have such thing for VMs as well? I can imagine two levels of this. 1.) Some list of commonly used ISOs that proxmox would allow me to dowload without having to lookup the URL. (eg. Debian...

    Hello, I had a problem with my managed VPS provider, the data was lost and I am not responsible. It only sent me a disk image of the virtual machine in .qcow2 format and I have no idea how to use it to recover a cpanel account that I had there (1 website).

    Hello! Im migrating some VMs that are running using Qemu/KVM. Everything is working fine except that after running the VM in Proxmox I have to reconfigure the network because the guest OS detects a new device, even if I match in Proxmox the same mac address and the same driver (virtio). My...

    [SOLVED] How can I specifiy a nominal speed of a kvm virtio NIC?

    Good morning, while expanding monitoring of my PVE systems I am stumbling over a (for me) problematic detail: the reported speed of a virtual NIC is always "10", which means 10 MBit/s. Specifically the host tells me this for any VM: root@pm1:~# cat /sys/class/net/tap110i0/speed 10 Just for...

    Hi, we want to use Barrier KVM to control multiple VMs from one PC without having to fiddle around with hardware KVM switches. Installing the distribution Barrier packages on CLI systems makes no sense as the dependencies will install all the X11 stuff. QEMU has an integrated Barrier client...
