    issue on moving Ubuntu Server VMs from one server to another

    That is true. Live migrations at least do not work if cpu differ. If you do migrations in that situation, use as CPU the default KVM64. Then you can migrate to nodes running different CPU:s. After migrations are finished, you can change the CPU back to host.

    Broken cluster after upgrade

    Is pve-manager the one Find out with apt-get dist-upgrade It should show what is to be upgraded and hopefully advice on how to fix. Did the Proxmox subscription run out? Or is the /etc/pve directory missing completely? Where does the /etc/pve come from?

    Problem with storage local

    Nobody what? Like @sb-jw wrote in #4, what about fdisk and mount? And like @sb-jw wrote in #2, if you have 2 Terabyte disk but use only 200 G, there is unused space that can be mounted and added as storage to Promox. It's in Server | Storage | Add and choose Directory in this case.

    VM does not get net when host boots

    I rebooted Proxmox server with 12 VMs. Guests that run only name service or otherwise small hosts booted up OK, but bigger hosts with database, web server and e-mail booted up with no network settings and services down. I logged into each from console and started network with ifup, then started...

    Host RAM usage vastly exceeding guest RAM

    There is 15 GB used for buffers and cache. 28 GB used + 15 GB buffers/cache + 36 GB free = all memory accounted for.

    ZFS causes high load, unable to figure out why

    If you write zeros with compression on, the actual writes to disk are drastically reduced. Have you checked whether it is the reading from /dev/urandom that is slow? It is very slow on my host. Now that you have the /root/test file, try copying it to see if the load is different when not reading...

    Host RAM usage vastly exceeding guest RAM

    The PVE host uses RAM also for disk cache, buffers and what the PVE itself uses. If you run ZFS it uses memory a lot. See where the memory goes, on the PVE host run command free, then examine further with top, htop etc.

    Newbie question

    The use case does not look like it would put heavy load on disk. Users are not likely to spend all their time uploading big PDF files and downloading them. So my guess is any disk system has sufficient performance. I asked similar question a while ago...

    Getting new host, how to use SSD disk?

    The test is useful for me. I do not need the more complicated testing fio does. Besides, i do not understand the reams of numbers fio produces.

    Start failed: command /usr/bin/kvm

    Thanks, that works. I created ZFS Storage and a new VM using that, and it boots and I could install Debian on it. I'll have to read more about storages now that I plan to use ZFS.
