I have the same issue after upgrading from 1.4 to 1.5: with a Ubuntu openVZ container lost its NIC. I changed to bridged mode by clearing the venet ip address and set eth0 to vmbr0 then clicked on save.. after a refreshing the gui, eth0 goes back to disabled. I recreated...

Hi Mike, How is you testing of the flex server going? I am about to start testing on the one we have over here. I see you configured iSCSI for storage. Are you implementing any NIC bonding? If so can you share your configuration? and any results? Also any other new findings /...

Thats's great news Tom! :o In the mean time I can start testing on my server here. I know you can't answer all of my questions with certainty without thorough testing. Even so, could you give me some direction on how you would proceed with my configuration and answer some of my previous...

Hi there, How is your testing going of the modular server?

Hi Tom or others who might be able to point me in the right direction on this. The company we purchased the server from is thinking of writing a white paper with me on the installation of proxmox-ve on the intel flex server. I could really use some help or direction to resources on how to...

Ok thanks tlphipps. So as I understand it now: All modes offer the same quality backups. Snapshot mode allows user to continue to use the server during the backup. What are the average time differences between the modes given a set amount of data with similar server load?

Thanks! I had looked at 'man vzdump' in version Proxmox-VE 1.1 but there was minimal info there. I noticed that in version 1.4 'man vzdump' has more info and answers a most of my questions. I understand that each mode has more or less down time associated with them. Stop mode = long down...

STOP VS SNAPSHOT VS SUSPEND I searched the the forum and the wiki but cannot find a clear description of these different backup modes. What are the pros and cons of each when would it be wise to chose one over the other etc. Perhaps this has already been answered elsewhere.. please direct...

I will have two compute modules Module 1 (on the inside) Proxmox-VE-INSIDE-Master Module 2 (DMZ) All openVZ Proxmox-VE-DMZ-Master Do you have any recommendations for the above? So the only way to have live migration work between the intel flex modules and and an external server is to...

Thanks Tom. Great you are getting the modular server soon! So as I understand from your post, (assuming I have a total 10 300GB SAS drives at my disposal) you think it is a good idea to install proxmox-ve environment on a Raid 1 storage pool (2 x 300GB SAS) and then store the virtual...

Tom are you guys testing the modular server yet? I am about ready to start setting up our flex server and moving all our physical and virtual servers to it. Will post soon with some of my ideas on how I want to do this so I can get some feedback on my proposed configurations. Initially...

Ok understood.. this is what I have been doing with my openVZ instances first test any proxmox-ve upgrades on a test server and then upgrade the production servers. thanks Mike.

are you finding KVM to be not a stable virtualization technology? I intend to run Server 2003 domain controller as a KVM instance. Why do you say you wish it were more stable, what stability issues are you running into?

Hi Mike which brand drive chasis are your using, what are your specs and how do you like this solution in terms of working well with Proxmox-ve?

Great to hear that the possibility will be there to certify the flex server! Thanks Rich!

Thanks Mike, that gives me a little more confidence in my choice :p which brand chasis are using with the intel flex server? Also would you be willing to share your configuration and what you are running on your server? Do you have all 14 SAS drives and have them configured with RAID? I...

Yes we have looked the storage boxes also as well as just using iSCSI SAN/NAS in combo with this server. Tom - how far are you guys with certifying the Intel Flex server for proxmox and is there anything I can do to help?

Wow fortechitsolutions thanks for the thorough review and recommendations.. but we had already already ordered the server. You make very good points Tom in an earlier post on this thread recommends the intel modular flex server: Tom do you have any comments to make on...

Hi there, I think you are in the wrong place.. this is a thread concerning "my" new installation of proxmox-ve, I don't work at proxmox.

The upgrade I did is really a "safe-upgrade" so not a major upgrade. It upgrades any binaries that have been updated in the repositories inclduing the rsync binaries. I belief that fixed my issue. You could also just update the rsync binaries.
