    Proxmox VE 8.0+ cpu microcode

    Rebooting the nodes got the new microcode into the Kernel. Or at least it seems to have... Unfortunately it's looking like hot-patching CPUs isn't supported in Proxmox-VE. The Proxmox-VE kernel is compiled without CONFIG_MICROCODE_LATE_LOADING. The short version is that microcode can be...

    [SOLVED] LVM `issue_discards` is disabled after upgrade from 7 to 8.

    What "pvdisplay" shows is a physical volumes and doesn't show whether or not you're using volume thin provisioning. What does "lvdisplay" show? This will show if you're using lvm thin provisioning or not

    Proxmox VE 8.0+ cpu microcode

    I haven't, I got busy with other tasks and I also figured "time may fix it". We have a shiny new proxmox cluster I might be able to try things out on (that will have support on it). I'll report what happens, though it may be a few weeks in the future.

    [SOLVED] LVM `issue_discards` is disabled after upgrade from 7 to 8.

    I determined that it wasn't necessary to set this value. Most people use LVM thin provisioning. To quote @fabian, If you do use LVM thin provisioning, you can always edit /etc/lvm/lvm.conf to insert this line: issue_discards = 1

    I'll give it a try, but these are AMD CPUs

    Proxmox VE 8.0+ cpu microcode

    I'm having a weird issue getting the firmware loaded onto a system and I'm not sure if it's related or not. I installed all updates on proxmox-ve 8.0.2 (pve-no-subscription repo), rebooted and I'm still seeing some warnings in my logs. root@pve2:~# journalctl -k --grep=microcode Aug 14...

    [SOLVED] LVM `issue_discards` is disabled after upgrade from 7 to 8.

    For completeness, a fresh install from the 6.4-1 ISO (which installed the proxmox-ve:6.3-1 package) had issue_discards set to 1. root@pve-test:~# lvmconfig --typeconfig full | grep issue_discards issue_discards=1 root@pve-test:~# grep issue_discards /etc/lvm/lvm.conf #...

    [SOLVED] LVM `issue_discards` is disabled after upgrade from 7 to 8.

    Ah that makes sense. Thanks for clarifying @fabian Not relevant to this forum but kind of curious as to why Debian doesn't default this to on.

    [SOLVED] LVM `issue_discards` is disabled after upgrade from 7 to 8.

    You know... When I installed 7.4 (from proxmox-ve_7.4-1.iso), the defaults are to set issue_discards to 0 as well. This system was originally a 5.x install and I've done several upgrades so I'm wondering if it was a setting from a long time ago. I don't believe it's anything I tuned myself.

    [SOLVED] LVM `issue_discards` is disabled after upgrade from 7 to 8.

    I had a chance to do a fresh Proxmox-VE install (inside a VM if that makes any difference). The defaults are to leave issue_discards set to 0 (off). The install was using proxmox-ve-8.0-2.iso. root@pve-test:~# lvmconfig --typeconfig full | grep issue_discards issue_discards=0...

    [SOLVED] LVM `issue_discards` is disabled after upgrade from 7 to 8.

    I absolutely got the prompt and selected the package maintainer's version following the wiki instructions: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_7_to_8#Upgrade_the_system_to_Debian_Bookworm_and_Proxmox_VE_8.0

    [SOLVED] LVM `issue_discards` is disabled after upgrade from 7 to 8.

    Hi, I'm not sure if this is an "issue" per-say, but I noticed that during an upgrade the `issue_discards = 1` config line is removed from lvm.conf and the new default is `issue_discards = 0`. I also could not find the setting anywhere else in /etc/lvm, for example in lvmlocal.conf. Is this an...

    IDE cloud-init volumes are not usable when cold-booting a VM

    That's probably my bad -- I see it there now. I think I got ahead of myself when writing the post.
