The default CT creation dialog offers us to set number of CPU cores, but not CPU limit. However that causes CT to be locked on specific cores preventing it to use other cores under load, which might result in load spikes when two or several CTs get loaded on the same core. It somewhat tries to...

This stuff can sync LVM thin LVs and their snapshots: https://github.com/mpalmer/lvmsync I guess it could be interesting way to widen proxmox replication support beyond being ZFS-only solution.

i know it's in zfs, but proxmox can only set space quotas, not object count. i want proxmox to set it for me.

dnode accounting seems to work on proxmox with zfs 0.7: # zfs userspace tank TYPE NAME USED QUOTA OBJUSED OBJQUOTA POSIX User root 2K none - - at least i believe the unset "objquota" is the thing we are looking for.

ZFS 0.8 has two interesting features that can be beneficial to proxmox. 1.) Quotas to limit number of inodes ("zfs dnode accounting") per dataset (i think it's already in ZFS 0.7 tree, but not sure) operations on large quantity of small files can cause one container to affect another container...

just upgrade (apt update; apt dist-upgrade) and refresh web (ctrl+R). it will show up next to old web console.

i think this may have fixed problems i had with writing some characters in novnc. especialy when not using english keyboard layout. very nice. also it works even for node upgrade over UI and it's already available in stable repo (at least in pve-no-subscription). i like how proxmox is modular...

And i just found it has very nice scrollback buffer that works just as i would expect, that's also super usefull. Even tho it's not very long in number of buffered lines, it still makes work much much easier. Also what really amazed me is that i only needed to upgrade one server in the cluster...

@dcsapak i've just installed it and it works perfectly! It allows me to seemlessly copypaste between browser console and rest of my desktop. also it resizes nicely with browser window. it just makes working with terminal very convenient. thank you very much for your effort.

@tom, yes. But that's solution for diffent problem. I know how to get to text console over ssh. But i want REAL text console in browser. Right now when you open text console in browser it's actually converted to image, so you don't get real text output to browser. You get screenshot image of...

I don't think it's complicated. It's pretty straightforward once you get grip for it. ZFS sacrifices some of IO performance for it's features (after all it's copy-on-write filesystem). But it balances this out by using extensive RAM caching. (Well it's good idea to buy enough RAM). I use ZFS on...

Oh sure. CTs in /tank, but VMs go to /dev/zvol. This is realy cool about ZFS. It can create virtual block devices in it (similar to how LVM works), so you don't have owerhead of two filesystems stacked. So if you create VM it creates blockdev rather than just file. For CTs it creates new ZFS...

1.) when you want iso and backup, you have to add storage not as ZFS, but as regular directory. but don't do that for disk images and containers, that would be bad. 2.) don't know what you mean. everything is mounted in /tank/ directory 3.) No. the compression is ZFS best practice. It defaults...

Sadly. For some reason this is not yet implemented. I wish it wil be sorted out in Proxmox 5.2, but i saw no activity on this topic.

create pool called tank ("tank" is most commonly used and reccomended name for zfs pool) zpool create tank mirror /dev/sda /dev/sdb or without raid (not reccomended): zpool create tank /dev/sda i am not using ashift, because after some reading on this topic i got impression, that defaults are...

The SPICE terminal in proxmox web ui is nice, but i'd also like to have pure text based web terminal in Proxmox. For example gotty looks quite promissing: https://github.com/yudai/gotty Textmode web terminals in general have following (dis)advantages over spice: 1.) It only transfers textual...

Nice :-) No rush, i guess these will come in next few years.

I've noticed that ARM based server processors with vast number of cores are starting to appear on the market. (Imagine motherboardboard having four Qualcomm Centriq 2400 CPUs with 48 cores each :) While they might be bit inferior in single thread performance, they might be very well suited for...

proxmox 5.1 upgrade still same problem

That's not really an issue as i was aware that i need to replicate CT to all nodes (or at least all nodes in HA group)
