    New mini-itx Proxmox Build

    Re: New Mini-itx Proxmox Build Guys, could you please enlighten me, why is hardware support for VLANs so important in this case? I've always been able to use VLANs on the cheapest Gb nics. It's working nicely using the Linux kernel's VLAN code. VLANs are essentially just ethernet frames tagged...

    New mini-itx Proxmox Build

    Re: New Mini-itx Proxmox Build You settled with using an SSD, not a USB pen drive, so I'd say you don't need those tricks. Put the Proxmox volumes/partitons on the SSD. For smaller loads and for testing, at home, etc. you can put your VMs (or some of them) on the SSD too.

    I've installed the newest BIOS and firmware, it didn't help.

    KVM IOMMU startup error

    In hopes that it might be useful for someone else with an Intel DQ67SW motherboard: as the solution I ended up disabling the IGP in the BIOS. Interestingly enough, I still have text console on either a physically attached monitor or the remote KVM (Intel AMT). So now everything is working as...

    KVM IOMMU startup error

    I forgot to provide the VM config, here it is: bootdisk: virtio0 cores: 2 hostpci0: 01:00.0 ide2: none,media=cdrom memory: 4096 name: host.name.local net0: virtio=8A:79:69:48:33:2E,bridge=vmbr0 onboot: 1 ostype: l26 sockets: 1 virtio0: local:100/vm-100-disk-1.qcow2,format=qcow2,size=8G

    KVM IOMMU startup error

    I have a problem starting one of my VMs on a server wit a redirected PCIe card. It was working fine previously. I have tried all workarounds I posted here without success. This seems to be related to this bugreport. Is it possible that the related patch hasn't been incorporated in the PVE repo...

    [SOLVED] Problem PCIe Passthrough M1015 / Network boot hang's up.

    Re: Problem PCIe Passthrough M1015 XPEnology(Nanoboot) boot hang's up. Just install it with apt-get and select it at boot to test. The one working for me is the -27 or -28 from the 2.6.32 series.

    [SOLVED] Problem PCIe Passthrough M1015 / Network boot hang's up.

    Re: Problem PCIe Passthrough M1015 XPEnology(Nanoboot) boot hang's up. AFAIK there's no need to use the PCIe features of KVM if the device doesn't require some PCIe-specific function. Although I'm not completely familiar with the technical details of this.

    [SOLVED] Problem PCIe Passthrough M1015 / Network boot hang's up.

    Re: Problem PCIe Passthrough M1015 XPEnology(Nanoboot) boot hang's up. Just to note: I use the same card as you on 2.6.x without any performance or other issues.

    [SOLVED] Problem PCIe Passthrough M1015 / Network boot hang's up.

    Re: Problem PCIe Passthrough M1015 XPEnology(Nanoboot) boot hang's up. It's good to know you've resolved it. I'm still using it with an older 2.6.32 kernel since newer ones can't boot on my system and I can't use 3.10 cince I need OVZ. So it seems the solution for you was to update the initramfs...

    KVM offline migration

    I'm surprised that no one could answer this. However, what I see from the perl code, offline KVM migration only works with shared storage (of any kind) or local directory-based storage. I'd be glad if someone from the Proxmox team could confirm this.
