    loss of network connectivity

    Yes you can update to 0.9 beta2 after installing 0.9, please see: http://www.proxmox.com/forum/showthread.php?t=533 The problem with assigning the same MAC address to all KVMs' virtual network interfaces may or may not be fixed in 0.9 beta 2, I have no confirmation either way. The developers...

    loss of network connectivity

    Did you use the recently-released Proxmox 0.9 beta 2 rather than the original 0.9 release? You have the same MAC address on each virtual network interface, this has been discussed previously on the forum: http://www.proxmox.com/forum/showthread.php?t=435

    apt-get update - Need some help

    1K/s... it kind of looks like you have an awful unusable connection to pve.proxmox.com. Perhaps you could traceroute and ping it and see what your route to the site looks like. ftp://pve.proxmox.com is perfectly fine and responsive to me from the US and I can fetch all that stuff you're failing...

    Help With Distributing VMs

    (Open)VZ was originally designed with web hosting in mind. Providing VPSes are very nearly bare metal speed. If you're trying to do something vmware-like and compile things for other Linux kernel versions and Solaris and Windows and all that, KVM is certainly more what you're looking for. I...

    KVM - QEMU backup

    Your script looks nice, just use my procedure wrapped around your 7zip command and 7zip from /backupsnapshot/images rather than 7zipping from /var/lib/vz/images. What I wrote earlier is really just for backing up KVMs since vzdump --snapshot already does an LVM snapshot and spits out a nice file...

    KVM - QEMU backup

    You can use LVM2 snapshots to back things up while keeping them running. lvcreate -s -L 2g -n backupsnapshot /dev/pve/data mount /dev/mapper/pve-backupsnapshot /backupsnapshot ...(do your backups here)... umount /backupsnapshot lvremove -f /dev/pve/backupsnapshot

    DNS of VM

    You use whatever name servers you would normally use for anything else. Your own or your upstream provider's DNS servers... Yes, you could run a full recursive DNS server on any server that you create inside VZ containers, just as if it were a normal non-virtualized server.

    Lilo boots to 9A 9A 9A 9A error

    Try some nice Areca controllers if you're using SATA drives... I have a basic little 2-port 3ware SATA controller and though there's nothing inherently wrong with the 3ware controller, it doesn't perform all that wonderfully under Linux compared to other OSes.

    Where do things go wrong?

    Are you running these with KVM? http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki/Status Proxmox VE uses two virtualization technologies; KVM and OpenVZ. OpenVZ is virtualization of the Linux kernel so it should work for any Linux dist at pretty much full speed. KVM is a more generalized amd64 virtual machine...

    Firewall considerations

    There is no /30 routed with two IPs to worry about or anything like that. Whatever IPs you assign to the VZ containers or KVMs you should just treat them like real physical machines and firewall their IPs accordingly.

    suse installs as kvm, but windows doesn't

    Your request for help could use some more details. Have you mounted an ISO image by editing the /etc/qemu-server/NNN.conf or are you doing this from a physical DVD-ROM drive? What settings did you choose when you created each VM? When you say "no vnc windows" are you saying you are attempting...

    Issue with migration from vmdk to qcow2

    What does your /etc/fstab look like? Did you edit your fstab to reflect the correct virtual disk device (IDE hard drive, not SCSI) after moving this Linux instance to qemu/KVM? What is /tmp/rootdev, a symlink to your real disk device in /dev?

    Proxmox testing / KVM Production ready .. ? Misc q's..

    Although there's nothing inherently wrong with the 3ware controllers themselves (they perform better under BSD and Windows) you should probably get some kind of Areca controller instead of 3ware for a server that is intended to run Linux. I'm not saying you shouldn't look at the more expensive...
