    Proxmox Datacenter Manager 0.9 Beta released!

    Beautiful modern UI!!!! I don't run a datacenter, just a homelab, however this makes it easier to keep an eye on things across all nodes from a central dashboard. Some suggestions if I may: 1) could the Resources section of the remote-view have sub-groups under the node rather than list all...

    How to improve RDP user experience (Proxmox + Ceph NVMe + Mellanox fabric)

    I'm not sure if this applies to you, but it sounds like a commercial scenario? In which case I would highly recommend you take out the full license cover with Proxmox. As I understand it they have inhouse skills specializing in migrations from vMware to Proxmox, pretty sure they will just SSH in...

    Custom Machine Types

    I've combined this into a formal request: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6909

    Custom Machine Types

    Totally understand you, we can do all kinds of wizardy to make things work the way we want, problem is, it defeats the point of having the virtual management environment in the first place, then we get put-off because ongoing support and management of all the custom tweaks across upgrades just...

    Proxmox Devs: Please could you modernize the arcane forced default USB controllers logic??

    Optimism is great, but the aforementioned dungeon really does exist!!! :oops: Formal request raised: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6909

    Proxmox Devs: Please could you modernize the arcane forced default USB controllers logic??

    Agreed, but........ I gave up adding requests to bugzilla, they end up in a virtual dungeon. If it is a bug then absolutely it will be logged into bugzilla.

    Proxmox Devs: Please could you modernize the arcane forced default USB controllers logic??

    In case anyone else wants to get rid of these pesky emulated USB controllers, just remove the relevant [device] sections from the file: /usr/share/qemu-server/pve-q35-4.0.cfg Not ideal to have to hack around the code, but on MOST all vm guests I simply have no need for these controllers...

    Custom Machine Types

    I too would love to have that entry removed or at least configurable. From what I can tell, this old hardcoded config file based Q35 setup is a nightmare because it also ties into live migration. Personally I believe it needs redesigning/refactoring to allow end user configurability within the...

    Proxmox Devs: Please could you modernize the arcane forced default USB controllers logic??

    This has been requested on a few occasions over the years, but to this day, Proxmox still forces these USB controllers into VMs. Ovirt and other QEMU/KVM environments don't do it, but Proxmox likes to keep these legacy things hardcoded still in there, really annoying. I checked the code and it...

    PVE9 in-place upgrade failed due to mellanox/nvidia networking

    It's one of the things I try my best to avoid on a Proxmox host, installing 3rd party software/driver packages that have a large number of very specific dependencies, can screw up a hell of a lot of things come upgrade time, ie. nailbiting cleaning up and all kinds of dependency oxymoronic...

    Windows, GPU passthrough, and Code 43 Help needed!

    Which version Windows are you using? If passthrough works with a linux guest, but not with windows, then windows is the problem, to be honest, windows is nearly always the problem lol Make sure VBS is off and the hypervisor in windows is off too, sometimes these things get enabled and can...

    Proxmox Virtual Environment 9.0 released!

    Successfully upgraded 14 physical hosts and 5 virtual hosts. :D One particular host had some custom built drivers for 5G modem and a custom firmware networking smart card, but after recompiling drivers for new kernel, all done. Impressed with you guys, Proxmox upgrades sure have come a long...

    [Feature Request] Proxmox 9.0 - iothread-vq-mapping

    I would raise a point, has there been any investigations into the impact such a configuration would have on other guests running on the same host?, one of the biggest problems with virtualisation is the management of threads in order to mitigate latency issues, the more IO threads, the more...

    nvme IOPS 4k performance - same disk with diffrent Host = diffrent results.

    Yes, obviously correct, however... You didn't read his post correctly. There is no issue baremetal, IOPs are fine on both cpus... the issue he is noticing is the IOPs performance inside VMs. Many of us have spent crazy hours to days to weeks tweaking things in the past across numerous builds...

    Hardware buying advice needed

    If noise is an issue, and you have no plans to upgrade, as in just shove a single M.2 and a sata drive, and are happy with 1G or even 2.5G via usb3 for networking, then the HP pro/elitedesk 8th gen micros will work just fine. Set you back about a hundred odd euros/pounds each, and you can...
