So is it safe to assume that this is for immulation purposes and not related to actual hardware usage? Not to beat the subject to death, but let me ask this as well. Assuming the sofrware license is for one CPU and in the computer I have 2 quad core CPUs. Can I tell KVM 1 CPU Socket with 8...

If I wanted to assign "2 CPUs" to a virtual machine, what is the difference in performance between: 1 CPU socket and 2 Socket/Cores -vs- 2 CPU sockets and 1 Socket/Core

I don't want to assume that I know what these are because I don't. These settings are in the KVM configuration section. What are they? What are good guidelines for setting them? Thanks.

I understand that now. Thanks.

We've been running with MD SW Raid ... Installed Lenny first, then followed directions to install PVE on top of that. However, there is a hitch in the get-along ... at least for us. We solved it with the following: Then edit /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf and comment out the first set of references to...

Does or can Proxmox VE take advantage of KQEMU to make the VMs in KVM run faster? I would love to get faster performance from Windows guests, have set everything up according to all the directions provided, including the c:\boot.ini mod in Windows because I'm running Opteron. But the benchmarks...

All good questions Tim. KVM is primary target on the radar (where it should be). Xen is out. No need to go through the laundry list here (you already aired some of it anyway). My attempt at Convirt is all KVM, not XEN. While this may sound like a contradiction to what I said earlier, we've...

Just curious...???... Is the biggest holdup on V2 centered around creating smooth and trouble-free 'upgrade' capabilities? I for one will be happy to go to the trouble of having to move each VM one by one onto a new platform if that brings it sooner. Put iSCSI or even NFS for shared storage...

Questions: 1. Can I interchange KVM machines between computers running Intel and other computers running AMD? ... in other words, I have a KVM on a system running on intel --- I want to move it to a system running on an AMD. 2. Can i interchange VE Containers between comuters running AMD...

But I don't understand which step copies from /var/lib/vz/images/* ...as this is nowhere in any of the steps.

still no joy.... I just get a 35 byte empty file. Where in the script does it not to snapshot from /var/lib/vz/images/* ???...this is not anywhere in the revised script. Also, I assume I have to create the directory /backupsnapshot (I believe script failed prior to my doing that).

I know it's been a while since we visited this... but I'm still not doing something right. This dog don't hunt.
