    New update on the progress: Added on the kernel's grub start args max_loop=255 and started the bare metal system in the try to increase the max loop devices on the system and overcome this limitation. After, the container starting/stopping operations are taking considerable longer but what...

    Proxmox 5.4.6 CT or kernel limits - issue/bug on high CT number?

    Thanks for the feedback. I'm pretty sure that I'm not the only one trying to run high number of CT on a prox box. Regarding the LVM, I haven't tried that but for plain and quick manipulation of image files I'd rather stay on file storage backend because on the current storage there is also...

    1. 1 socket and 10 cores - that is the correct way 2. enable numa 3. I am talking about the hypervisor settings and not VMs. 4. be sure to have latest updates of qemu-kvm versions from pve repository

    Linux guest problems on new Haswell-EP processors

    Hi, I always run on virtio drivers because this is the kind of driver that delivers the max iops on the virtual system, at least if this is what you're hunting for. My guess is to go for the 4.2.6-1 kernel branch, I think I just recently upgrade to latest 33 release of the 6 minor version and...

    Ceph Server: why block devices and not partitions ?

    dietmar, let me give you an example of use case for such requirements. Consider the following case - 5 proxmox nodes HA cluster setup, each with 1 x SSD Kingston V300 @ 120G for journal and 1 x Intel 750 400G NVMe drives. The cluster is still under performance benchmark and testing and testing...

    32 new servers, 10GE and Netapp for Proxmox and a MySQL and perf test questions.

    Might I make a comment on the vm.dirty_background_ratio and vm.dirty_ratio ? I would see these value not being very appropriate for a hypervisor host, but more like vm.dirty_background_ratio = 10 and vm.dirty_ratio =5 as data should be flushed much faster to disk source and avoiding the...

    Linux guest problems on new Haswell-EP processors

    @ e100 - tested every possible setting, even ISCSI, hot plug disabled, all same results. But while some are still frying the fish, other stubborn people prefer to have a solid solution to this bug and use virtio (the best performance) without any issue. :D As a tested solution to this issue...

    Linux guest problems on new Haswell-EP processors

    @ Spirit: I can't change nor test this on to this systems because are production envs and my main concern is not to have sleepless nights due to this stupid bug, which I already had plenty. Separately, I have a different env running on Core i7 socket 2011 v1 CPUs and never had encountered...

    Linux guest problems on new Haswell-EP processors

    As said, I returned with more info on the topic in order to shed some light on the gathered research I've manage to do so far. Considering my last post, I have focused on the way the internal disk scheduler is set, from default values towards changing it to deadline on all VMs. This has...

    Thank you for sharing this very useful information ! My servers are running H730 Mini (MegaRAID SAS-3 3108 [Invader] (rev 02)), which is based, if not mistaking, on the 93xx LSI branch cards. Although, it doesn't apply. As I described I am running 2 setup, different locations, one with local...

    Linux guest problems on new Haswell-EP processors

    Still, that doesn't mean the issue doesn't exist ;) There is a sure difference between my 730xd's (running also on local and remote storage) and yours r630's in terms of chipset and used CPUs, but I am having a hard time believing that the CPUs instruction set on my 2630's v3 is so new that it...

    @ spirit - Yes, it is the default value set, hotplug enabled (Disk Network and USB), are you suggesting something ? :D @ robhost - I said I am not using OpenVZ, as pointed out in that separate link I provided, fully describing the issue. But as on the other hand I am not running only debian to...
