    High CPU load for Windows 10 Guests when idle

    @moeff , after some researching I've created one more Windows Server 2019 VM from scratch and this time used the following hardware options: SCSI Controller: VirtIO SCSI Hard disk: VirtIO Block Network: e1000 (kept like in previous setup) And it seems to perform much better.

    High CPU load for Windows 10 Guests when idle

    FYI: pve-manager/6.1-5/9bf06119 By default Windows Server 2019 (OS type is set to Windows 10/2016/2019) starts with no-hpet and hv_relaxed,hv_synic,hv_stimer and the host's load while VM is idling is high. Disabling no-hpet...

    Feature request: VM replication over Syncthing

    Hi, fabian. This is actually what Syncthing does: it sends only deltas and runs on demand (default is hourly, but can easily be changed in the config) or when a file (dis)appears.

    Feature request: VM replication over Syncthing

    Hi, It would be awesome to have Syncthing integrated into Proxmox VE as a VM replication backend. Currently, replication works only for ZFS file systems, while Syncthing will work on any mountable fs. A lot of other benefits exist: only changed blocks are transferred, unlimited replicas, rate...

    Multi-node HA cluster with iSCSI only storage

    If somebody curious, here's the instruction how to build up a GFS2 clustered file system in Proxmox 6 on top of shared iSCSI LUN: https://gist.github.com/jazzl0ver/8959215eaed6e8367f9a4486a5690809 I haven't thoroughly tested it yet, but seems to be working. Would be happy if Proxmox team...

    [SOLVED] CT guest shows Server refused to allocate pty

    OS is CentOS 6 i386 (with latest system updates installed), "unpriviledged container" is set to "No". There indeed was a devpts line in the fstab, I've removed it and unmounted /dev/pts from shell. Now the issue's gone (no container restart required). Thanks for your prompt help!

    LXC restore from NFS failed

    Hi. I've dumped an existing unprivileged LXC container to NFS storage and then tried to restore it on the same Proxmox server with unprivileged box ticked. The restoration has failed with the following error: ... extracting archive...

    NFS freezes Proxmox WebGUI and fails to backup

    Just found out that the i/o scheduler had been reset to noop: [root@filer-1 ~]# cat /sys/block/sd{a,b}/queue/scheduler [noop] deadline cfq [noop] deadline cfq Wondering how that's possible.. The only suggestion it was tuned - its profile was set to "balanced". Changed to "latency-performance"...

    NFS freezes Proxmox WebGUI and fails to backup

    Just for the records. I forgot that the NFS server had a running Syncthing service, which started to sync the folder I used for fio (my bad). Here are the results after turning it off: root@vm-box-1:/mnt/pve/filer-1-images# fio --size=9G --bs=64k --rw=write --direct=1 --runtime=60...

    NFS freezes Proxmox WebGUI and fails to backup

    Sorry for the delay. Yeah, it does not look speedy. It might be due to ZFS dedup and compression enabled. But this must not affect the latency when deadline scheduler is selected (if I'm not mistaken). Do you have any ideas how to make the NFS server to respond fast?

    NFS freezes Proxmox WebGUI and fails to backup

    Hi @manu. Thanks for your response. The point is that NFS server is online it just seems to get frozen due to high i/o during backup and thus stops responding to nfs client's fsstat RPC command. So I'm wondering if there's a tweak that could tune up the server's responsiveness. This is not a...

    NFS freezes Proxmox WebGUI and fails to backup

    @carles89, thanks for you reply and wishing to help me! I don't think it's a networking issue. The switch port is loaded for less than 100 Mbit/s during the backup (while it's 1Gb port). This indeed might be the NFS server issue. I haven't tried with mdadm, since ZFS seemed to me more preferred...

    [SOLVED] CentOS 6 OpenVZ to LXC migration issues

    Hi all. I'd like to share some issues I faced after migration CentOS 6 containers from OpenVZ (Proxmox VE 3.4) to LXC (Proxmox VE 4.1) using https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Convert_OpenVZ_to_LXC. I had a CentOS 6 CT installed from a standard template. After migrating it to LXC there were two...
