    i checked out napp-it. is napp-it something you install on top of a running solaris? or is napp-it an all-in-one distro w/ everything installed, kind of like proxmox?

    Recommedations for new SAN?

    i'm also shopping around for SAN solution, and all my research seems to point out that, nexenta is really just opensolaris, with support. i've never tried opensolaris, i thought they were just one of the linux distros out there, so this was a bit of a surprise to me. anyone eve tried...

    a site pushing close to 10-50mbps

    thanks for reply. but i think with me, it's more about i have hundreds of thousands of connections coming into the VM. i'm looking to see if there's anything i should know about to optimize it on a proxmox vm environment.

    a site pushing close to 10-50mbps

    hi guys, i'm about to host a site that pushes over 10mbps and i'm trying to host it inside proxmox. i tested this briefly on a openvz container but it died with tcp_conntrack full dropping packets kernel messages. so now, i'm thinking of installing it on a kvm, so i can control the kernel...

    New KVM 1.2, snapshots, vzctl and other packages on pvetest (on the road to V2.2)

    i'm thinking of upgrade as i can really take great use of the live snapshot feature. so if i'm reading correct, proxmox now supports the XenServer/VMWare-like snapshots where it takes only a few seconds for VMs of any size all while using up considerably less disk space? also, how feasible is...

    VM cloning from the web UI?

    Hi all, are there any plans to incorporate some VM cloning options, like Xen/VMWare/VB have it? Where you can just right click on a VM and then hit clone? I sorely miss that feature, I'm hoping proxmox will have that at some point, but just would like to know some time frame. Currently doing it...

    lvm backups in proxmox?

    is there a way to perform LVM backups within the promox gui? i only see vzdump atm. vzdump takes too long, i prefer the Xen snapshots which only take about a max 2-3 seconds. i'm trying to find similar way to do this in proxmox. any advice?

    help, i added a venet ip and the whole server went offline

    help, i just added a venet ip to one of my openvz server from the proxmox gui and the whole server just went offline. i believe i might have accidentally entered in our router's IP. i do have access to the server physically but need to know what i need to do once i'm there. i would really...
