I see, but why vmxnet3 instead of the native, and I guess more efficient, VirtIO type? You can limit it's bandwidth also but I guess will impact less the guest resources and so will increase overall performances

Just wondering why you are using "vmxnet3 (limited to 100 MB/s)" and not the more efficient VirtIO? And why limit to 100Mb/s?

Don't ever use the "R" variant, they are optimized for Reading only and have poor write performances, you have to use the "M" (mixed, read/write) variant, like DC500M or the newer model DC600M, a little more expensive but with optimal I/O performances and good durability (I use them)

I contirm disabling x2APIC works! Dell PowerEdge R240

Dell PowerEdge R240, dual port BCM5720. Kernel 6.2.16 boots ok Kernel 6.5.11-7 (or also 6.5.11-6) hangs at boot. Last message on the screen is "EFI stub: Loaded initrd from command line option" I've updated: BIOS from 2.10.1 to 2.15.1 Broadcom NetXtreme from FFV22.00.6 bc 5720-v1.39 to...

Hi, proxmox 8.1.3. I've set atime off in my pool zfs get all rpool | grep 'time' rpool atime off local rpool relatime on default I've the problem that if I add a mount point (mp0) to a LXC container, I can't specify in the...

Update: after a "low level" format everything works again as expected, even with re-partitionin and zfs formatting: nvme format -s1 /dev/nvme0 sgdisk -n 0:0:+1650GiB -t 0:bf01 /dev/nvme0n1 sgdisk -n 0:0:+10GiB -t 0:bf01 -c 0:SLOG1 /dev/nvme0n1 zpool create -o cachefile=none -o ashift=12 nvmep1...

I was able to grab a cheap M.2 pcie adapter and I tested in another PC. htparam is slow there also, even if faster (216 MB/s vs 124 MB/s... even if in a "degraded" bus state, OS Kubuntu 23.10 "beta"), and I've opened a ticket with Kingston support. I'm really puzzled about this problem (hope an...

Hi, I've a U2 Kingston DC1000M 1.92TB as secondary storage (ZFS formatted) that I use "just in case I need speed". When installed it was very fast as expected (es read performance 1454.99 MB/sec). i.e. root@proxmm01:~# hdparm -tT /dev/nvme0n1 /dev/nvme0n1: Timing cached reads: 20680 MB in...

So your software is just using Proxmox API, correct? So is like a "web browser" that is using HTTP protocol to talk with a web server. If the web server is AGPL, the web browser can have whatever license it likes. BUT if your web browser requires that you "enhance" or patch or extend web server...

I don't think so. If you modify Proxmox (i.e. add some library / api / whatsoever) to interact with your PaaS services, THEN you have to provide the source code of THOSE parts of software (the "proxmox side" ones) as well. I think you have to consider AGPL as a "GPL not circumvented by Internet...

Well, is not just that "Samsung 970 Evo is not made for this", is "Samsung 970 Evo does NOT have to be used for this", it has really poor sync performances, so if you use it as SLOG you have a really bad performance. Of course SLOG does not increase not sync performances, nor bandwidth. In any...

PBS is a good solution, but costly and for a fast restore you also need fast connections. With a local backup you simply move the backup storage in the new server and do a fast restore, so local backup is not useless if you can move it :)

Forgive my ignorance in "high level hardware" but I've only experience with my "self made" Proxmox server at home and I've been asked by a friend that runs a small IT business about a Proxmox server for his customers. My idea is that I will boot from 2 ZFS raid1 small DC Sata SSD, have a VM...
