    Assigning physical HD to a vm ?

    Hmm, but what about live migration ? Will proxmox assume /dev/sdc is a shared storage (with aoe it is) and allow live migration ?

    Assigning physical HD to a vm ?

    Hi, I want to assign a physical HD like /dev/sdc to a vm. Is that possible ? Maybe some undocumented tweaks in storage.cfg ? I know I could put an LVM on the disk and then assign a logical volume but that is not what i want, it adds too much complexity. To tell the truth, basically I want to...

    Mounted NFS Server brings down proxmox cluster

    Hi, we have a proxmox cluster that mounts an iso-image-image directory from an NFS Server. The problem is, if the NFS Server ever goes down we have strange problems on all proxmox cluster, like hanging systems and hanging vms. I wonder if it is possible to change the way proxmox mounts nfs...

    Symlinking local storages ?

    Hi, I have a proxmox cluster and each machine has the directories /var/lib/vz /vms01 and /vms02 for local storage. Yesterday I added a machine with only 600 GB HDD Space to the cluster, the other machines have 2 TB and more. Since I never know , from which directory I will migrate servers to...

    KSM on Proxmox 1.6

    To become more concrete, I am willing to donate 500 Euro to the project of a maintained KSM capable kernel during the life of 1.6. I personally do not care if it supports openvz, I do not need that.

    KSM on Proxmox 1.6

    We also had extreme staility issues with proxmox 1.5 and WIndows 2008 64bit vms which all went away with proxmox 1.6 Why dont we all put together some donations for the proxmox team and officially "order" a maintained kvm-only,KSM cabable proxmox kernel from them ? I perfectly understand that...

    libguestfs and proxmox ?

    Hi, are there any experiences in using libguestfs under proxmox 1.6 ? I am interested to use such nice commands like virt-resize with proxmox. I am not sure, does libguestfs require libvirt and all this awful stuff ? I dont like that on my proxmox machines.

    help,"Booting from Hard Disk ..." the problem

    Well, of course virtio works if the drivers are installed. But Peter told us that he has just converted a physical windows machine to kvm. And if you do this you have no virtio drivers installed ...

    help,"Booting from Hard Disk ..." the problem

    Hi, your screenshots show that you are using a virtio disk, not an ide disk. That cannot work. Reconfigure the vm for ide in proxmox and try again

    Windows 2008 x64 regularly freezing on proxmox 1.5

    I also have some solid 32 bit vms. Maybe the Problem is that the guest making problems has a 64 Bit Windows 2008 OS ? BTW: What kernel and Versions are you using ? We use:san02:/boot# pveversion -v pve-manager: 1.5-10 (pve-manager/1.5/4822) running kernel: 2.6.32-2-pve proxmox-ve-2.6.32...

    Windows 2008 x64 regularly freezing on proxmox 1.5

    Hi, we run a Windows 2008 R1 x64 vm on proxmox 1.5. That Windows machine is freezing about once a day which means that you cannot enter anything on the console or ping or rdp to that vm. Proxmox then shows a vm cpu usage of 104 % We tried everything, virtio and ide, different nics...

    I/O and bandwidth limit

    We have really good success in limiting io on proxmox in the standard configuration. For example: ionice -c3 backupscript.sh allows backups only in idle-times which means backups have no impact on running processes. ionice -c2 -n0 -p pidofkvmprocess allow some better io quality for specified...

    Does anybody know a trick of how i can force a correct drive order using proxmox ? Or any hint in which file is the source code to build the argument line so that I might be able to resort them by myself ?

    VLAN across cluster networking question

    Yes, you can perfectly do that with proxmox. We are doing the same. Regarding GUI, yes, I think you can define this network infrastructure using the GUI. We dont use the GUI for interface configuration since every interface change through the GUI requires a proxmox reboot which is a no go for...

    VM disks get reordered

    I can also confirm the problem with reordered disks an qemu-server: 1.1-12 After adding a virtio1 disk the virtio1 disk becomes vda while the virtio0 disk becomes vdb even more worse: I have no idea of how to fix it, i cannot reconfigure all vms ... The command line seems to be correct but qemu...
