    windows 2008 guest, uefi, install iso doesn't boot

    Ah super!! Interesting info, your reply here is _very_ appreciated! :-) Any idea when this patch would become included in proxmox? Of is there a a way to disable those "hyper_v enlightments" for this specific machine in it's machine-id.conf config file on proxmox?

    wheezy, fstrim resulting in blocked requests on ceph

    Hi, Today we changed storage for a (debian wheezy) VM to SCSI with virtio SCSI and and rebooted. Came up fine. Storage is on ceph. (three node cluster, 10G network, with total of 12 OSDs) Then we issued "fstrim -v / " on the VM and some trouble appeared: in the wheezy guest we received...

    unexplained regular drops in ceph performance

    Using atop I can also see that on avarage 3 disks (osd/journal disks) generate 90 - 100% usage during ceph bench. This drops to only one disk during the 0 MB/sec moments.

    ceph cluster / public network question

    Hi, We have a three-node proxmox/ceph setup, with a 10G internal (meshed, 10.10.89.0) network and a public (1G) network. We would like ALL heavy traffic to be on the 10G network. However, we also see a lot of traffic on ports 680? on the 1G public network. Google tells me: "The "public"...

    windows 2008 guest, uefi, install iso doesn't boot

    Some more observations: * the windows 2008 R2 iso boots a bit further (passing the "windows is loading files" into "starting windows", but then a blank screen again) * installed virt-viewer to get spice viewer access: same result Ideas?

    windows 2008 guest, uefi, install iso doesn't boot

    Hi! I'm trying to virtualise a windows 2008 x64 server running on uefi hardware into proxmox. A created a system backup using the windows backup application. Now trying to restore that backup in proxmox, using the windows installation media. That's where things stop working... Created a VM...

    add existing image to new vm

    Hi, I have read several posts, where they say: copy the image to the proper location (./images/100/vm-100-disk-1.raw) and then it should appear in the gui as an unused disk, ready to be assigned to the machine. However, this does not seem to work here. I can of course add a second disk to a...

    data / os disks, snapshots

    Hi, Just wondering if there is a good solution for this: One mailserver in proxmox, two disks, one with the OS, other disk containing data, mounted on /var/vmail for maildir data. I create a snapshot and then start a big software update. The server runs for a few hours, but the updates turn...

    unable to delete the 'local' storage

    Hi, I have created a "local-btrfs" storage on my nodes, and to prevent misstakes I would like I would like to delete the default 'local' storage on my proxmox 4.2 nodes. I'm not getting an error, but the 'local' storage is also not going away. :-) Is it perhaps impossible to delete that...

    switchless 3-node ceph, direct connections

    Hi Tom, Great, thanks. Just to make sure I understand things correctly: * the 10.14.14.50/51/52 on eth3 has nothing to do with the ceph mesh, and (probably? perhaps?) is to restrict access the proxmox management interface from that subnet? * the 10.15.15.50/51/52 is where the magic happens...
