3.3.6 did not work for me either. I am in touch with Intel, seems to be a known (although rare) problem.

I am also having problems with Intel NIC, in my case a Quad Port ET based on 82576. On POST link led is on and it remains on up until GRUB passes the stick to the kernel to boot. Immediately after the kernel starts to load the link goes off and I cannot get the NIC back (rmmod igb followed by...

If you are trying to test network speed then I would take the NAS factor away (and would use Linux with virtio network adapter if you can). Try to test one thing at a time only, mixing a lot of variables in the same test will not help you figure out the bottlenecks in your set-up. Now, if your...

Thanks for your reply. If I wish to increase the limit to 3 hostpci devices, is this something I could achieve by changing a few config files (which ones?) or would I have to get my hands a lot dirtier? In your bench did you only measure throughtput or did you set up an environment with a lot...

Please I would also like to know the answer to this question. Anyone?

Hi, I spent quite a few hours to get Proxmox 2.0 Beta2 to work on an encrypted partition and would like to share my efforts with the community as my first thank you to all of you that helped building this awesome piece of software. I have read many people going the "Debian installation...

This is interesting to hear BUT... When encryption is absolutely required what is the best way forward? Do you suggest that VM-level LUKS encryption would somehow perform better? hdparm gave me a result of over 200MB/s with LUKS on, but I know read performance is just one piece in this puzzle...

The main thing I missed is the lack of support for disk encryption during the installation of Proxmox. Ubuntu is making it really easy, maybe something to base from (they have a "Configure LVM with encryption" option that does everything automagically and only asks for a Passphrase). The...
