    VM Migration fails with "only root can set 'affinity' config"

    I ran into a somehow similar issue when migrating a VM, albeit not with the affinity setting but with a very special set of low level qemu args. I guess it boils down to the same privilege issue? 2025-05-29 11:00:32 ERROR: error - tunnel command...

    Any update on Drs solution!

    Not yet, but maybe the ProxLB project might be a look worth in the meantime: https://github.com/gyptazy/ProxLB This also features the support of affinity and anti-affinity rules, ignore options on guest and nodes level and several other features.

    IO load interference between different storage pools

    ...see two potential workarounds. Throttle the HDD VMs by limiting IOPS and bandwidth to a level that prevents noticeable IO delay. Or use CPU affinity to isolate SSD-only and HDD-using VMs, hoping that separating their CPU resources reduces contention. That said, I’m not happy with either...

    Limit hosts on which a VM can run

    Maybe this? Add a newly named Storage backend to only nodes 1 & 2, then add a disk (dummy) to that VM from that storage - migration will then be unsuccessful to other nodes that do not have that Storage backend.

    Limit hosts on which a VM can run

    Need to cover: - HA: it should not jump to an unlicensed host. What you shared should be good enough. - Manual operator mistake: Would require a mandatory VM to host affinity.

    VM Create/Edit returning "only root can set 'affinity' config"

    the linked bug report is about allowing affinity to be set by non-root users, if that is your issue, then yes.

    Opt-in Linux 6.14 Kernel for Proxmox VE 8 available on test & no-subscription

    ...with all the changes to the AMD P-State Driver? Sadly, I don't know how to get to the bottom of the problem. Edit: Manually pinning the CPU Affinity of the 8 cores/16 threads of the VM to CCD0 (0-7,16-23) in 6.14 brings back the performance of 6.11 - at least in X-Plane (61 fps). However, in...

    Hello, everyone, I'm integrating the PVE with one application using the API, however, when I try to define an affinity on the VM, the API returns error 500 with the message "only root can set 'affinity' config". Is there anything I can do to solve this issue? API Endpoint used: Create...

    limit the availabe cores for virtualization

    Welcome to the Proxmox forum, Walder! As far as I know, there are no global configurations to limit either the physical core affinity and/or number of physical cores usable by an operating system type of VM guests. But one option is that you can set the physical core affinity [0] for each...

    LAN NAS -> Win11 VM langsam

    ...also von einen Quad-Core-Xeon 8 Kerne der VM zugewiesen? Dann muss ja Windows abgehen... Lass mal die Cores auf 4 und stelle zurück auf nur einen Socket. Ich würde noch CPU-Affinity auf "0-3" einstellen. Dann hat die VM auf jeden Fall die "richtigen" Cores und die 4 HT-Cores bleiben für den Host.

    PVE 8.3.4 EPYC 7713 (Milan) SMT Passthrough Fail (cpu: host -> 1 thread/core) & Guest numactl Fail

    Yes but there is also the affinity setting. The virtual VM cores are scheduled by the Linux kernel scheduler. I cannot tell you how that works in any detail, but you investigate the Linux scheduler implementations on your own. Proxmox leaves this to the Linux kernel and QEMU/KVM...
