I would raise a point, has there been any investigations into the impact such a configuration would have on other guests running on the same host?, one of the biggest problems with virtualisation is the management of threads in order to mitigate latency issues, the more IO threads, the more...

Yes, obviously correct, however... You didn't read his post correctly. There is no issue baremetal, IOPs are fine on both cpus... the issue he is noticing is the IOPs performance inside VMs. Many of us have spent crazy hours to days to weeks tweaking things in the past across numerous builds...

If noise is an issue, and you have no plans to upgrade, as in just shove a single M.2 and a sata drive, and are happy with 1G or even 2.5G via usb3 for networking, then the HP pro/elitedesk 8th gen micros will work just fine. Set you back about a hundred odd euros/pounds each, and you can...

6.14.5 working fine here on 8th gen Intels, 13th gen raptor lake and an AMD 5950x. On 13th gen and 5950x, both working fine with x2apic and apicv for intel and avic for amd. sr-iov working great, rdma is fine, intel-igpu and nvidia-gpu and broadcom raid cards passthrough all working sweet...

Stay away from Minisforum, biggest pile of hype out there. From the sound of things you are in the UK so energy costs is a factor indeed especially considering the UK is continuously raising its rates like over here in Europe. Also it doesn't sound like you are after a number-crunching machine...

This comes down to how the hypervisor and guests establish paravirtualization links via KVM/HV enlightenments. Unfortunately, Qemu/KVM and even Proxmox as a UI (though it is getting better, just too many configurations to stay on top of so understandably a dilemma) - they are all a bit of a...

You sir, get my point 100%. I love Proxmox, it is a core platform in my lab which I rely upon to keep my technical skills up-to-date, where else are you going to recompile the kernel on the fly to try out the latest and greatest technologies.... Hyper-V and VMware don't provide that level of...

Totally missing the 'point'. Ah well, thank you for your time. Have a good day sir.

I would like to add, that in my professional consultancy career, I have over the past decade on numerous instances attempted to offer Proxmox as a platform solution, not once have I been successful. The issues always revolved around presumptions driven by how it looked... There is a natural...

The 'windows 8' argument didnt turn Microsoft away, we're now at Windows 11 and it is evolving to the day (much to the hate of old-techies), the argument is not relevant... this is about the future, the gen-z and beyond... Regarding Incus, it was not about features, it is about attraction to...

Been with Proxmox for years, been great for lab non-commercial use as a platform to simplify vm/container management with mouse clicks. But I've over the years come to realise that it seems to lack in a few areas, and I know that making any feature requests tends to just dissapear into the void...

@t.lamprecht - great release guys!!! Looking forward to playing with the SDN enhancements. Was a little dismayed though, still no MACVTAP support :( Hope we can get this in soon, been on and off requested for a few years now, I even filed a friendly request...

As advised by @UdoB - feature requested submitted: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5795

Proxmox team, please can you add macvtap to the networking options for guests? it has been asked for across the years numerous times, but it has resulted in total silence. It can't even be implemented by manually tweaking the guest config file via the args.... really really unfortunate. It is...

Host nic is not being used, no IP assigned etc etc. Would like to assign that nic to a guest where the guest retains the 'mac' address of the host nic, so that all traffic goes to the guest and back out of course. My problem is that MAC spoofing cannot be enabled on my environment due to hard...

On the proxmox host, do a: # ethtool -k <interface-name> (thats lower case 'k') check the value of 'generic-receive-offload', if it is 'on', then try: # ethtool -K <interface-name> gro off (thats upper case 'k') see if that helps....

Ah, there was an invisible character in the args which forces it to just trim off the rest of the args from said character.

This doesn't happen on another vm, but on this vm Proxmox keeps resetting the arg entry in the vm config to defaults, I do not desire this behaviour, any ideas how to disable this? Yes I am not making any changes via the UI, proxmox just seems to reset the args every vm shutdown.

"Added support for latest Distributions RHEL8.2/8.1/7.8, Ubuntu 20.04 and Kernel.org 5.4" I shall be putting some hours aside to try this out! Also Chelsio are supporting Debian based distros through their self-compile drivers, it's just they do not submit their drivers upstream as they work...

Just to update, the issue in the end was the hot-plug functionality in Debian, it works fine in RHEL, Debian throws a wobbly. To be frank I didn't like the RHEL+oVirt setup one bit, quite clunky in comparison to Proxmox and its ease of flexibility, plus RHEL doesn't support RDMA CIFS which is a...
