Yeah, but the important thing in my setup is that I would like to host EVERYTHING at one and the same laptop. :-)

So no RDP or Spice or ... at all which could be responsible for latencies or slowness, correct? What about things like bluetooth headset or webcam? The headset should be pretty much like interaction with your Dragon dictate. Do you have some micro connected to the USB sound?

Any further details to share?! :-) How about things like video cameras and bluetooth headsets for meetings, USB devices, which remote protocol are you using with which client etc.?

Hi everyone, I'm hosting multiple different Linux and Windows VMs at some server using Proxmox with ZFS and stuff and REALLY like it. At my job I'm a mixture of software developer and sysadmin, need to maintain Windows-only software with Windows-only IDE+tools, but have some Windows and Linux...

I had the same problem because of a lack or permissions: It seems that pveproxy actually runs as www-data and therefore simply needs permissions to read the created file. After changing that, the web-UI listens on the configured IP as expected by using LISTEN_IP.

Hi everyone, I'm planning to setup a new server containing 8 HDDs, of which 2 will be used as SPARE and 6 to create 3 RAID1 VDEVs added to one and the same pool in the end. The graphical installer is able to create ZFS with different RAID levels and seems to detect based on the chosen level and...

I host multiple different VMs running MySQL and Postgres databases and have a snapshots based backup of their data files in place already. That is, the host accesses the VMs using SSH, created snapshots of the contained file system, mounts those, mounts the while file system using SSHFS at the...

While it becomes a bot off-topic, what does "keeping" exactly mean? Persisting a suffix per VM or node or whatever wouldn't help me. I would really need to provide a suffix per created disk image and for each and every new one a different one as well. So that I can create an image being used for...

Good news. Any plans to make suffixes of image files available in the web-UI as well? I can't find something like that for storage type dir. Not sure if "[pve-devel] [PATCH v1 storage 1/9] storage: expose find_free_diskname" goes into that direction already.

Here is what seems to work for me: qm 'importdisk' "${vm_id}" "${img_src}" 'encr_zfs' '--format=qcow2' mv "${prefix_abs}-disk-0.qcow2" "${prefix_abs}-${img_dst}" qm 'set' "${vm_id}" --scsi0 "encr_zfs:${prefix_rel}-${img_dst}${PXMX_DISK_OPTS}" pvesh 'set'...

I'm migrating from VirtualBox to Proxmox and am creating the new VMs on the shell. Part of that is using "qm importdisk" to import available VMDK files as new QCOW2 ones. While that works in general, the result is a file like e.g. "encr_zfs:100/vm-100-disk-0.qcow2". While that is OK for only one...

For the routing to work, each VM behind pfsense needs to have configured 192.168.5.1 as gateway on OS-level as well, correct? Or is there some additional "magic" on the level of the virtualized NICs? Additionally, what is 192.168.5.2 for? Only that Proxmox can communicate with the VMs directly...

With a Linux bridge you mean that vmbrX thing which can be created in the Proxmox web-UI as well? vmbr1 in the attached screenshot? Didn't know that one doesn't need to bridge that to an actual NIC. I wonder why this isn't covered in the docs and what's the difference to VLAN is in the end...

Hi all, I'm in the process of migrating from VirtualBox and phpVirtualBox to Proxmox and most of my VMs are simply bridged to the public uplink of the host. I'm planning to change that to a suggested routed configuration, as my new hoster will be Hetzner providing a /28 subnet, which will only...

If you have a properly converted VMDK, yes. Everything else depends on the guest OS, like if the necessary drivers for the devices provided by VMware are available, e.g. for storage, network etc. Those things can easily be tested on a copy of your VMDK, though.
