    Proxmox 4: Installation halts when no cdrom is found when installing from USB

    Thanks, but it's an older (though it still feels brand new - time does fly) motherboard (asus p5bv-m) so not much to do there as far as I can see. I've also tried w/o any other disks mounted - and also 3 different target-drives.

    Proxmox 4: Installation halts when no cdrom is found when installing from USB

    Hi... Instead of upgrading I figured I would install from scratch, but the installation fails testing the cdrom. I don't have any cdrom attached to this server, and have tried creating the usb in 3 different ways (imagewriter,dd,rufus). I also tried several usb sticks... Is there any way I can...

    There is now a limit # of virtio-devices/drives?

    I hadn't thought about the firewall scenario in proxmox at those scales - again a limitation of not being in a production environment. I manage just fine as is, but I always need to know why stuff is the way it is. And you helped me with that today. Thanks alot.

    There is now a limit # of virtio-devices/drives?

    It propably does, but it's not as much a requirement as a thought. Well, I use proxmox to learn - as it is a safe place to live by trial-by-error. One of my servers is a fileserver with about 20 drives, where I train in both linux distributions and different development languages. This is...

    There is now a limit # of virtio-devices/drives?

    This is great news, but the 16 drives and 32 nics choice makes me curious. I personally have 20 and 24 slot chassis, so I can easily see 32 drives and 16 nics as a reasonable solution. At what scenario would 16/32 be needed/preferred? Is it more complicated to implement larger number of...

    Hard Drives Setup and Management

    I'm a little under the weather, so not sure if I'm on the same page, but here goes..: I dont know if there's any gotcha's with freenas or ufs, but I run several debian guests with external ext3/4 storage disks the way I think you're asking for. proxmox1 - server1 - disk1-disk2-disk3-disk4...

    Manually uploaded (existing) ISOs not shown

    I had the same discovery. If I'm not mistaken, you have to put the iso's in a subfolder, so in my case \\Nowiduo\iso\template\iso points to the iso's, and not \\Nowiduo\iso\ which I shared. I didnt take any notes while doing it, and I might have done something silly, but now it is working at...

    Cannot start VM

    Small update. Trying the new beta of Opera (Next) (Version 12.00 beta / Build 1431) and both console and start/stop works - even from right-click menu. It seems they have introduced some new bugs though - update problems - suddenly don't show info-pane when clicking another vm etc.

    There is now a limit # of virtio-devices/drives?

    Thanks alot for that information. I am quite familiar with debian, and have been using it for some time. But due to an incident in 2009 knowledge have a way of turning into I-should-know-this. I have never heard of http://debian-handbook.info/ though, but after reading up on it I figure it's...

    There is now a limit # of virtio-devices/drives?

    Ok. Thanks for the quick clarification. Guess I can set up a couple of vms with 5 drives each instead until it's changed. I can only end up learning more, so I cant go wrong. Just out of curiousity; is there a technical reason for this limitation or simply a chosen design? I read that sticky...

    There is now a limit # of virtio-devices/drives?

    Hi, I recently upgraded from 1.8 to 2.1, and just noticed the limit on devices introduced. As far as I understand from this thread there might be a problem with qemu-kvm which will crash the vm if exceeding x virtio devices. One of the vm's is a file server, and have over 10 drives attached in...

    Installation from USB-Stick not working

    I've used the guide Tom linked to, and installed it fine on two different servers several times with no problems. I used imagewriter, and not unetbootin though.

    Cannot start VM

    Hello... I get the same 2.1 error using Opera 11.64, build 1403 on Windows 7 64bit SP1. Updated to latest java from java.com, so I guess that means I'm running sun-jdk. (I've tried both 32 and 64-bit java) java version "1.7.0_04" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_04-b22) Java...
