    [TUTORIAL] Enabling SR-IOV for Intel NIC (X550-T2) on Proxmox 6

    It allows for more than one VM (or multiple VMs and the host) to have "raw"/direct access to the network interface. Not that bandwidth between the VMs and host that uses this NIC's VFs, will be limited/constraint to the PCIe bandwidth going to and from that interface. This also means that the VM...

    [TUTORIAL] Enabling SR-IOV for Intel NIC (X550-T2) on Proxmox 6

    I've found that the write to `sriov_numvfs` can only be done once, and if you want less or more vf entries, you'll have to reboot... unless I missed a removal step to reset the VFs

    apt-get dist-upgrade udev not configured yet

    Ran into this problem with a "new" 8.3 installation on a SuperMicro X11DPH-T that got problems with an `apt dist-upgrade` before I disabled the enterprise and enable the no-subscription version. It *seemed* to be relted to a ZFS import that takes AGES to setup/clear (loads of spinning rust)f...

    Deploying multiple proxmox host easily?

    I am busy with a process to add the needed bootstrap (in my case FRR & zerotier) on the SuperMicro X10DRT-PS (Yes, it's the old I use in test/home going to the DC but using the current H12 AMD versions in prod too) -> the biggest pain with this device is the lack of a SHARED port between the...

    [SOLVED] Installing/adding extra packages to Proxmox AIS ISO image (FRR + configs) #4

    Hi Cheiss I've gone and read through and looked/considered that earlier today, BUT before I haven't installed the FRR (or anything else IS-IS) and have the IGP running to get a default gateway, I don't have "internet access" to fetch/apt anything. That is the reason I need the FRR package to...

    Automated Installer with 8.2 - how to actually serve answer from HTTP?

    ZA mirror for downloads.proxmox.com ?

    Good day, ZANOG is busy setting up a community mirror for ZA (South Africa https://nog.net.za/mirrors/ ) Reason is the CDN sometimes resolves to NA, even when the fr.cdn.proxmox.com is the closer one, but still, EU traffic isn't always so nice and fast either and I'm also getting hit by the...

    Apologies for English response, but this is the best fit for the problem from the other responses. Though the first answer (restore as Privileged container) does fix the problem, I have the problem also with the `random` device in UNprivileged containers. The ROOT CAUSE seems to be related to...
