What is your storage backing? For reference: I was having a lot of trouble on a 2012 r2 with current 0.1.102 drivers, it would have really long boot times and sometimes crash before booting. I went back to virtio version 62.72.104.10200 and it has not had any trouble since. Running on qcow on...

So I got a pair of servers loaded up, the only thing I cant piece together is config sync, in the wiki it seems to imply vm confs are in /var/lib/pve-zsync/ but it appears that is not setup automatically, and I am not sure how to set that up as the config location. What are you using to keep...

Cool... Im going to try to light up a test lab on a couple optiplex with SSD, is that possible on a single drive? I just pick the ZFS option on the installer- right? Or does it need separate storage media for the zsync directory?

I figured 3 would be needed.... and I could do that using my retired R510, but I wouldnt want to rely on it for storage, and am trying to avoid some sort of expensive NAS/SAN in the mix. So it sounds like zsync is what I need to keep my data "near realtime" on both boxes, and easily spin back...

I am thinking of getting a Standard subscription package to aide in setup of some VMs that have hardware pass-thru needs, and CEPH setup. Would support cover that? Or are there disclaimers/exclusions as to what cases can be used for?

Or 3 nodes?.... background: Current setup: 2 PVE 1.7 hosts (no cluster) Dell R510 2x 80gb Windows VM + 1x 80gb CentOS VM (not ct) Supermicro server: 2x 30GB Centos CT, Installed in same rack, no HA. Will be upgrading these to a pair of Dell R730, and want to setup 1 in another building over a...

I am trying to install to a Dell R720xd, with a single SSD on the H710 controller. I have tried both pve4.0 and 4.1, with 4 different methods of writing the USB and they all fail. Depending on whether I use iso emulation, or just write the image to the usb, I get different behavior. First...

I removed the size parameter, same behavior. file -s shows NTFS, it was formatted from a windows 7 workstation.

I have done this many times, and usually I dont need to move the disk to another machine, so it just works, but in this case, I cannot go back and forth from physical to vm with my USB drive, I wonder if it is a problem with GPT.... although I can initialize it as GPT in the guest and start...

I am passing a 4TB USB drive to a Windows 2008 VM: virtio2: /dev/sdc,media=disk,cache=writeback,snapshot=off,backup=no,size=4000G This disk was preformatted NTFS on a windows workstation, but when I connect it to the VM, it sees it as an un-initialized disk, and asks if I want to use a GPT or...

I know sendkey works in monitor, but it appears our version does not have a method for sending the windows meta key. I see virsh offers a couple methods like: virsh send-key KEY_LEFTMETA I need to be able to send the window/d combo to show desktop on guest, and a couple other combos with the...

I have seen numerous questions regarding this, vague to little answers. What is the advised method for running multiple VMs behind a NAT on PVE (+dhcp)? I know of multiple ways to achieve it, but wonder if there is some "best practice" that applies to proxmox? Method 1: eth0 no ip vmbr0 >...

I am not an expert on proxmox networking, but I would approach it as it is out of the box, the default config is to not apply an address to the eth* interface, but instead put it on a bridge, and then the bridge brings up the physical interface like so: auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto...

some rambling info on this, and an "almost workaround"- This 3.3 system works with Hirens: proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 3.2-136 (running kernel: 2.6.32-32-pve) pve-manager: 3.3-1 (running version: 3.3-1/a06c9f73) pve-kernel-2.6.32-32-pve: 2.6.32-136 lvm2: 2.02.98-pve4 clvm: 2.02.98-pve4 corosync-pve...

I am using Hirens 15.2, and it dont work.

Experiencing some behavior changes in PVE 3.4. Mainly I am unable to boot iso from Grub4dos in KVM, worked fine in 3.3. My goal is to access the registry of an XP guest to inject ide drivers and fix mbr, if someone knows an alternate method to accomplish that I would love to know. I have...

for posterity.... i will post my own solution ;) credit goes to this guy: http://spica-and-roid.blogspot.com/2012/07/howto-kvm-passthrough.html ran it on 2.6.32-37 kernel, requirements: /etc/default/grub: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet intel_iommu=on pci-stub.ids=102b:4536" Then run...

I am having some trouble, I am doing this in a lab environment, and previously had it working 100% I took some scratch notes on the setup, and in an emergency my lab system had to be re-purposed for something else (formatted), some months later I am trying to get back to my project and it will...
