    How to make reported LXC memory usage include its cache/buffer?

    Bump. This behaviour is really annoying. Especially since the "Host memory usage" on the Datacenter -> Search overview is also wrong, making it hard to easily see how resources of a node are allocated. Proxmox API is of course also reporting the wrong value only, "memhost" like it exists for VMs...

    Swap usage while running backups

    You could set up ZRAM. Pictures of node > Summary and your command outputs will be more helpful than just descriptions so we can see your memory usage/pressure ourselves. If KSM is used then there was likely some pressume and ballooning going in. Enough for SWAP to be absolutely needed? I can't...

    Not getting good network throughput even with LACP bond

    The issue you are seeing is not related to LACP and not caused by the physical network. What you are running into is a VM topology and platform problem that becomes visible after an ESXi to Proxmox migration. The i440fx machine type is a legacy platform that mainly exists for compatibility...

    Swap usage while running backups

    I'm doing backups from fast (NVMe) drives to slow (ATA; 5400 RPM 130 MB/s write). Presumably, as a result of this, swap space fills up when I run backups, and it's mostly VM memory that gets swapped out. I have 8 GB of swap configured and it fills up completely. RAM usage of the server never...

    HDD usage option.

    With the increase in SSD/NVMe memory prices worldwide, this type of memory tends to significantly increase the cost of backup infrastructure. Is there any possibility that the Proxmox Backup Server project could rethink the use of HDDs and design a solution for better performance in this...

    RAM summary usage is not equal to the sum of allocated memory

    Every AM5 CPUhas integrated graphics (but maybe it can be disabled?). I have an AM4 without integrated graphics and 128GiB of memory but PVE 9.1 reports 125.78GiB. The Linux kernel reserves some memory (per CPU core/thread, so this differs between systems), which I think explains why every...

    RAM summary usage is not equal to the sum of allocated memory

    The host has a total of 64GB. There are 6 VMs running with the following memory allocation. Ballooning and KSM are enabled, and the Min memory is equal to the allocated memory. VM1 - 4GB VM2 - 6GB VM3 - 4GB VM4 - 16GB VM5 - 2 GB VM6 - 12GB So that's a total of 44GB. But the summary shows...

    RAM summary usage is not equal to the sum of allocated memory

    ...the whole management stack that handles the guests, provides the API and web UI and so forth. So you are likely to see a bit higher memory usage on the host itself than what you allocated to each guest. Unless there are features triggering that reduce and/or consolidate RAM usage, like KSM...

    RAM summary usage is not equal to the sum of allocated memory

    The total RAM allocated to all my VMs is 44GB, but the summary shows 46GB. Where did the 2GB go? One of my VMs' disks is set to 'Write back' cache. Is that where it went?

    Memory Usages

    You have allocated 32 GB to the VM, it will use that amount...it allocates caches, etc., and does not know how to release it to the host. If you need it to use less you can allocate less to the VM. If you enable ballooning (and have the driver installed) Proxmox will remove memory from the VM...

    [SOLVED] Cannot login to Proxmox GUI under moderate load
