Well... my upgrade did not go so smoothly. dist-upgrade crashed and starting throwing errors about the zfs module not compiling. `Autoinstall on 6.14.8-2-pve failed for module(s) zfs(6)` ``` Errors were encountered while processing: zfs-dkms proxmox-kernel-6.14.8-2-pve-signed...

Now that Proxmox 9 is out (and includes 2.3+!!!), I assume there will be steps needed to remove the manually added ZFS module before upgrading. Could you provide steps for those of us who used your wonderful repo to follow for a successful upgrade? :)

I suggest making a new thread and then posting the link here. I'll try to take a look at your setup. I suggest showing the full details of your current configuration, including: grub command current kernel vfio module options any blacklisted modules dmesg output from boot onward, and tag where...

So with all my testing I have confirmed that both the old method and the new method work, as long as you don't use q35-7.1 . Old Method - Blacklist drivers, assign PCI IDs to vfio, add a bunch of kernel options, cross your fingers. This is what most blog posts and even the ProxMox wiki show...

I just changed the host from q35-7.1 to q35-7.0 and it suddenly started working. I will play with some more settings later and report what configurations work in case it helps someone else in the future.

Does buying a subscription increase the odds of getting help with this? :)

I was previously using Proxmox 6.1 and passing through my RX480 to a windows guest. It was working smoothly, except for the issue of unexpected guest shutdowns making the GPU unusable until the system did a full power cycle. I updated to Proxmox 7.3 and the windows guest stopped working. First...

@RokaKen - thank you, this is helpful. Is there any documentation to explain how I can track if the calls to increase RAM are being taken from released RAM vs. the swap available on the host? Also, is it possible to add this as a snippet in the "automatic memory management" section of the Wiki...

@Dunuin - thanks for the idea. I took a look and while the 28 GB ballooned machine is running, the host shows this: root@proxmox:~# free -m total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 32138 31088 342 42 707...

I have a Proxmox 6.0-4 host with 32 GB of memory. I have two guest machines, each that will do work and I want to be able to share the RAM between them. Neither machine will be using 100% of the RAM at a time. So my goal is to configure each one with a Max of 28 GB of RAM, and the minimum of 4...

Thanks - but that's a bit out of my depth at this point. I look forward to when this is offered as an option to enable :).

Is it possible to get the steps to do this? I'm interested to try it and don't mind some crashing. :)
