    options for a system wide read cache? is anyone utilizing something for this?

    I tried building a system-wide read cache setup on Proxmox to speed up access to large AI models, and honestly, it's been a mixed bag. ZFS L2ARC doesn't cut it for big, frequently-accessed files, and SSD-backed LVM caching adds complexity without always delivering consistent speed boosts across...

    Installation error

    Right now, I'm considering two possibilities: 1) Secure Boot on the motherboard might be blocking the PVE system from booting. The GRUB in the PVE image should be signed, but your motherboard may not trust the certificate. I've read some reports about a Windows 11 update that can break a...

    'No bootable option or device was found' on new Windows VM.

    The following is probably a different problem, but I found this thread when searching for why a newly created windows vm did not boot. In my case the problem was, that I specified 64 MB instead of 64 GB of RAM. This resulted in the same misleading error that there is no boot device, while...

    options for a system wide read cache? is anyone utilizing something for this?

    wondering if anyone out there has a read cache setup that is system wide and includes vms, to cache most frequently read files all over proxmox and vms to boost performance? not talking about the VM cache options such as writethrough, writeback, etc or L2arc which doesnt actually cache the...

    My Proxmox 9 server keep hanging, completely frozen !?

    ZFS on rotative drives super bad performance

    Hi guys, I deployed PVE on a new Dell R360 with HBA355 and 2 rotative drives (Toshiba 4TB) using ZFS. This server is replacing an old VMware standalone server with 2 Windows VM. You probably will ask me why not use SSD? Basically I have only 2 VM and the cost of mixed use SSD drives is huge, and...

    [GUIDE] High-Speed, Low-Downtime ESXi to Proxmox Migration via NFS Hello everyone, I wanted to share a migration method I've been using to move VMs from ESXi to Proxmox. This process avoids the common performance bottlenecks of the built-in importer and the storage/downtime requirements of...

    [SOLVED] Windows 10 Guest >100% Ram Usage (Anzeigefehler?)

    Nein, es sind unterschiedliche Versionen. Hatte auch schon an einen Bug in der aktuellsten Version gedacht. Aber hab dafür extra mal ne Test Win 10 Pro VM gebastelt, verwende da auch die neueste Version und da ist alles ok... die RAM Anzeige in Proxmox geht genauso "rauf und runter", wie die RAM...

    Passthrough error migrating from proxmox 8 to 9

    First of all, thanks to @dcsapak for taking an interest in this issue. It reassures me to know that it’s not a licensing problem (I was convinced it had to be something along those lines). These past few days I’ve been trying to solve this matter and came to a few conclusions: Passthrough of...

    [SOLVED] Windows 10 Guest >100% Ram Usage (Anzeigefehler?)

    Also je nach installierter Software und auch Version ist das auch unterschiedlich. Enterprise und Pro verhalten sich ganz anders als Home. Das Windows den RAM beim booten komplett füllt ist auch nicht ungewöhnlich. Deshalb booten VMs mit 512GB RAM auch extrem langsam, weil der RAM beim...

    Guten Morgen Falk! Danke für dein Feedback. Da sich nicht nur die Disk ändert sondern auch die NIC neu erkannt wird wäre es interessant was hier passiert. Ein einfaches Erweitern könnte so schon mal schiefgehen wenn ein Kollege IP und Disks nicht prüft. Danke für den Tipp onlineall hatte ich...

    ZFS SSD High IO Wait

    Hello Team, Trying to get the to bottom of underwhelming disk performance with ZFS, particularly random spikes of High IO wait. I know this topic has been done to death, I've tried tuning parameters, I have CPU and RAM to spare, on SSD disks but I just can't work out why the whole server just...

    [PVE 9.0.6] Judging Normal/Abnormal "Host Memory Usage" vs In-VM Memory Usage for Ubuntu VM with Ballooning Disabled?

    Thanks for calling that out. I'm testing this now and getting a basically accurate RAM measure in the PVE GUI. I assume this works the same way for Windows VMs with the QEMU Guest Agent/VirtiO package installed? This is a really important clarification and clears things up nicely. :) A lot of...

    Suggesting for Low power Mini PC

    I’ve posted a few times about my ongoing issue running Unraid inside a VM on Proxmox. After some trial and error, I’ve decided it would be simpler to move Unraid to its own dedicated server. My plan is to then purchase a low-power mini PC, install my Proxmox SSD into it, and mount shares from...
