Hi Marco For what I can share is that FreeBSD 10 will be the first release to ship with bhyve (their BSD-licensed hypervisor) that also relies on virtio - that said starting with 10, the FreeBSD devs will be getting more interested in virtio. Their driver has made considerable (also...

As I now remembers FC is all done in hardware and it's a Bootrom that handles all the stuff for you, the OS definitley only sees a SCSI HBA with a Disk. I have to keep guessing, but there are problems with mounting / contacting the LUN etc... I guess you've already recognized that the WIki...

Hi Chris What did not work exactly? Although I've never installed/booted Proxmox from an iSCSI LUN I only guess from my experience with booting Windows and Debian from FC and iSCSI SAN. You'll certainly need to configure an iSCSI HBA or (more likely) your NIC BootROM to connect to the iSCSI...

I actually have a similar problem - once a week a (temporarily) big VM of 200GB on one disk needs to be backed up. We had to change hardware settings for this VM and unlocked the VM then (no, I know I shouldn't have done). The next daily backups were logged with errors because the global lock...

Re: No network card seen on a HP ProLiant BL460c G7 with dual port Emulex FlexFabric True but I don't know how far the PVE-Kernel derives from the RHEL 6 kernel. HP has source RPMs for NC553i drivers for RHEL 6 available for Download - this could be worth a try but I'd expect it to be not very...

I can only confirm xlnt's warning about ZFS deduplication. It's not always the way to go depending on your data, it's good with lots of duplicated small data (think VDI), much less for large pools with only some duplication. When the DDT (Deduplication Table) doesn't fit into RAM your pool...

hwraid.le-vert.net has a good wiki about using various RAID controllers under Debian/Ubuntu and these people have DEB-packaged various of the proprio management tools like tw-cli (LSI 3Ware) or megacli (LSI MegaRAID) which are often only available as RPMs or have to be installed painfully by...

I do use NexentaStor as well as OI (and illumian.org, the Debian-packaged illumos variant) but did not get the chance to use it in combination with Proxmox. My overall experience with iSCSI vs. NFS was that albeit iSCSI might give you a tick more of performance, it's not always worth the time...

You should still be abled to use the 3dm2 CLI locally, not as nice but it works. It's a known and awkward issue I ran into too.

I am really not the one who likes bike-shedding about licensing neither am I am expert on this topic but I had that "itch that I had to scratch" thus this question. :) The Proxmox VE code on top of Debian is copyrighted in most parts by "Proxmox Server Soliutions" and - the company could - but...

Hi Martin So If I have understood correctly, the community support is a low-price offer by you guys for companies/users that don't want / can't pay Basic or higher-level subscriptions but want to: Show continued appreciation for all your efforts on annual basis (BTW: My experience was, that...

G'day I have seen Martin's announcement about new subscription called "Proxmox VE Community Support" - I absolutely agree that someone has to pay the living for the guys doing this fabulous job on Proxmox VE. I absolutely see the value in paying for open source support services when I use it...

As short addition HCP from R1Soft and its license terms where they write: "Can I Redistribute Hot Copy as Part of a Product? No you may not redistribute Hot Copy without permission. If you are interested in incorporating R1Soft Linux Snapshot technology in your product contact us for an OEM...

OK, here are some first results, after the update still using RHEL's 1.2.0-1 driver package, doing a robocopy on the VM trying to shuffle some data from a physical 2003 R2 server (around 700MB of random files) Test 1: PVETestKernel 2.6.32-pve-6 + RHEL virtio-win 1.2.0-1 * VM still gets...

OK, here are some first results, after the update still using RHEL's 1.2.0-1 driver package, doing a robocopy on the VM trying to shuffle some data from a physical 2003 R2 server (around 700MB of random files) * VM still gets unresponsive * High count interrupt (up 41% of CPU time), only...

Sorry for the delay I could only update to 2.6.32-6-pve Kernel and according QUEMU from pvetest today. Expecting results tomorrow. But I suspect the Windows drivers to be the source of the problem (those from RHEL 6.1). If I fail again I will try those from Fedora

G'day Thanks I think I can give it a try this weekend. Plus someone mentioned in this thread there may be newer drivers from Fedora that might fix some related bugs too. I'll report when I have more results

Now that's intereresting - I'll also give a try with them. (have a similar problem)

Even worse I could confirm that by doing heavy network stuff (big file transfer) after a period of high system interrupt count the network card loses connectivity and dmesg on the host systems also spits something out about some tun/tap interfaces. The only way to recover the network...

G'day We have several proxmoxes at work, most of the VMs are running a sort of Linux where I don't see any negative performance. Now I recently set up a W2k8 R2 VM giving it a virtio Network and virtio block device. I installed the for both kind of hardware the latest drviers than are inside...
