    Installation Advice

    More details: - The need is to install 3-4 really heavy VM (windows servers 2019/2022 horribly optimized for I/O, but we can't argue with the supplier ... so we need to compensate the inefficiency with HW). - No HA neeeded. VM in local storage. Focus in maximize VMs performances - In the future...

    NAT with IP failover (OVH)

    I need to use some single IP FO on a new dedicated OVH server. Unlike the old servers, for this, OVH claims that I need to use NAT because the old mac-address routing for IP FO is no more supported (in this server). And I can't insert a single IP FO in vrack. Is there a clean way to nat an...

    LXC template

    Oracle is Oracle ... ;-) Like IBM is IBM ;-) I don't think the problem is RH, CentOS, OL or may be RockyLinux or another RH clone distro. My trust in Oracle is very limited, but I trust there will be a CentOS replacement if it really stops like they claimed. There are so many interested ...

    LXC template

    Time flows ... my memory is not very good at remember all the problems I went throught ... ;-) The most remarkable was that sometime a CT became unresponsive and and you couldn't reboot it. You had to kill it and often reboot the server because a kworker* process saturated cpu and blocked some...

    LXC template

    When Proxmox used OpenVZ and RH kernel, it seems to me that CentOS/RH container were simpler to manage than in LXC (less strange issue/behauvoir). So, often, I and many people I know, prefer to use KVM when there are no rilevant advantages in using CT. Thanks. Curiosity. I noticied: -rw-r--r--...

    LXC template

    After a few years and many others things managed my memory can't be a perfect reference, but I assure you I lost many hours to understand/indagate differences. A really evident difference was the /var/log/journal folder managment and various systemd settings. Some packages have different...

    LXC template

    That are some of the reasons I prefer to use the supplied templates instead of fetch something from external sources ... This is instead a reason sometime I search for supplementar sources ... I agree that update the templates daily/weekly/.... is not very useful, but I suggest update them at...

    LXC template

    Proxmox itself provides a variety of basic templates for the most common Linux distributions, Ok. But I was wondering about the difference to use this templates Versus use an updated template. Today I was planning to installa a new CentOS 8 container (I know CentOS 8 is declared dead). I...
