    Best Practise: 'VM's running in ZFS file system or 'Directory'

    This is highly depending on your disk configuration but for our case we have a single stripped mirror zpool with all same size disk (which is also the root pool for Proxmox). When creating a CT/VM we select the only storage available: local-zfs. Never had an issue. Keep it simple. The advantage...

    Incorrect RAM usage in webui for VM

    I understand what you mean but Proxmox should report the same memory usage as how free does. When looking at the webui you might think the ram usage is at 90% while it's really just at around 14%. There's might be more to it in the background which is why I created a thread. I'm trying to...

    Question regarding vCPU for KVM

    We are looking to enable hotplug for the CPU for KVM guests. I've seen that it's only possible with vCPU and not Sockets nor Cores. Assuming the host has 32 cores, would it be best practice to set Sockets: 2 Cores: 16 and set the vCPU to 6 or according to the guest CPU need. If I understand...

    [SOLVED] CPU usage with LXC in webui

    Hello, I was under the impression that the reported CPU usage in the webui for LXC is in % but I'm having doubts. According to this picture: is the container using 10% cpu or it has a load of 10 (just like top would report) Thanks
