    [SOLVED] NMIs on VE 5.1-42 and 4.15.18-4-pve

    I was able to fix the problem. - changed clocksource for VMs (clocksource=acpi_pm, was kvm_clock previously) - on the virtualization host /etc/sysctl.conf # 0 avoids swapping processes out of physical memory for as long as possible. vm.swappiness = 0 # lessen the IO blocking effect that...

    [SOLVED] NMIs on VE 5.1-42 and 4.15.18-4-pve

    Hallo nochmal, ich habe das Problem inzwischen lösen können. Die letzten beiden Änderungen, die vielleicht den Ausschlag gegeben haben könnte waren: - Dateisystemüberwachung auf dem Virtualisierungsserver erhöht (fs.inotify.max_user_instances=256) - Zeitgeber auf den VMs geändert...

    KVM guests freeze (hung tasks) during backup/restore/migrate

    There is a qemu parameter to set the size of qcow2 L2 cache properly (default is 8 GB disk size max) which has a dramatic impact on performance, but it is currently unusable with Proxmox PVE...

    QEMU 2.5 - Setting L2 cache size drive option

    Is there any workaround? E.g. can i create the qcow2 image manually, so i don't need to add the parameter later? And is there any plan to integrate this parameter as a Proxmox PVE feature in future?

    freeze during and after blackup

    I just read that ionice generally does not work on NFS: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/about-of-ionice-in-vzdump.16485/#post-84955 Maybe you can use another location instead? As far as i know all other availble io schedulers do not honour ionice parameters, so you would have to use CFQ...

    Proxmox Host and Clients Randomly Freeze. Have to restart the system

    Were you able to fix the problem? Did changing /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches help?

    freeze during and after blackup

    I'm not an expert but i have similar problems (not involving NFS though). What you could try as a workaround is a) install the CFQ i/o scheduler on the host and then b) use vzdump in combination with ionice parameter in the shell. See man vzdump.
