    What ration of virtual to real CPU should I have for quiet, but big spike VMs

    As an update to my last post, FWIW I found some interesting material for the case of packet routing from the Vyatta forums. Regarding their interface affinity automation:

    Problem with ProxMox/Linux/Openfiler -and- Adaptec 5805z Controller Card

    So I assume this is an OF PVE talks to, and you're reaching that same failure point with or without the CD providing the kernel, and it's OF that isn't booting, not PVE, correct? I'm guessing kernel issues. Something along the lines of bad superblocks- it's the data populating the blocks, not...

    What ration of virtual to real CPU should I have for quiet, but big spike VMs

    LOL @ yatesco. My 2950 heats the place, I'll need to find it something to crunch on over the winter- It's too bad I can't rent out a few vps'. I have some in the same position, I figure many do who make use of virtualization. That's the principle that allows server consolidation to work. I...

    apt-get on strike

    It's not the best solution, but you could try re-installing aptitude with dpkg. cd ~ && wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/pool/main/a/aptitude/aptitude_0.4.11.11-1~lenny1_amd64.deb && dpkg -i aptitude_0.4.11.11-1~lenny1_amd64.deb The problem with this is that I don't know how it would...

    How to Create a HOW TO in the WIKI

    Pages containing this line are included on the HowTo Category page. [[Category: HOWTO]] This line is typically located at the bottom of the page.

    Need help finding pages on the Wiki?

    Hmm, seems alot that you've just uncovered could be considered as, and as such could be listed in, the HowTo section, which is what I've been using as an index thus far. There's little doubt that this will be found useful to many. Does the page keep itself updated, or does it introduce...

    VNC Screesize Issue

    I'm revisiting this after upgrading to Firefox 4 beta7, after becoming fed up with FF3 making me wait up to 10 seconds between right-clicking & seeing the context menu. In Firefox 4 I don't wait for anything, but it detaches the consoles even when you uncheck the box that allows javascript to...

    Question to add sound input in windows 2008 r2 with proxmox

    What about the setting in the Windows Remote Desktop Client, by where local disks & printers are made available- to 'add devices I plug in later', a USB audio I/O jack would then be forwarded to the guest you remote into.

    Network Performance on 1.6

    Oh, well. I had the wrong idea about the implications of new kvm. :-/ Thanks for clarifying. Even still, vhost=on seems to promise an enormous jump. Looks like now I can bring the 10Gb bonds into Vyatta with 8 less NICs per bond!

    Network Performance on 1.6

    Ok, so that's understandable. When I saw this I thought >29 would be possible. So I don't understand yet why still >29 of this fails: -netdev type=tap,id=vlan1d0,ifname=vmtab1003i1d0,script=/var/lib/qemu-server/bridge-vlan,vhost=on -device...

    Question to add sound input in windows 2008 r2 with proxmox

    USB soundcards are cheap & provide basic 1 input / 1 output connections. Maybe add that to your Windows machine by means of a 'hostusb:' entry in /etc/qemu-server/VMID.conf. If 'hostusb:' doesn't work, there are products like this rackmount USB to IP converter, and this open-source project...

    70-persistent-net.rules not is generated

    The Lennys I have don't behave that way. Running udev 0.125-7+lenny3 with either kernel 2.6.32-4 or 2.6.35-1. All I can think of is that these Lennys are both PVE, although I don't think that should make a difference. My non-PVE Debians are Squeeze which run udev 163-2, and they don't...

    I don't understand wiki formatting

    Ahh, there's a checkbox to do that. It makes a single forward tab increment stay at the default 4 spaces wide, and changes the backspace increment to a single space. I'll try it later this evening, thanks.

    70-persistent-net.rules not is generated

    I encountered the same problem on a couple guests. I didn't bookmark the link so I can't provide the reference anymore, but it's an obscure feature and is by design. The feature causes the file 75-persistent-net-generator.rules to blacklist MAC addresses of virtual devices, and thus they are...

    Network Performance on 1.6

    I must not understand this correctly. I still get 'start failed' when I add a 30th NIC. Syslog says the failing command looks (in part) like this: -netdev type=tap,id=vlan1d0,ifname=vmtab1003i1d0,script=/var/lib/qemu-server/bridge-vlan,vhost=on -device...

    Error kvm : cpu0 unhandled wrmsr & unhandled rdmsr

    Happened across some detail on that in case anyone's wondering what it is that we're ignoring: From the kvm mailing list last week: Before I knew it was a warning I was worried that it was one message per vcpu, but it's just that it doesn't log >10.

    I don't understand wiki formatting

    I was just updating a manpage on the wiki from what I copied out of a terminal, and spent an entire hour trying to get it to format properly. I couldn't make sense out of how it handles spacing- the text in my editor is fixed width, and I thought that's what the wiki does. I'm using the most...

    Shorewall not routing to VM

    It's kindof difficult to make any determination based on the information provided. It would help if you were to post your /etc/network/interfaces or explain how the Shorewall is configured. So you have Proxmox at 192.168.2.254 & shorewall's installed to the same Operating environment as...
