    Booting Virtual XP Mode image in KVM

    You have to get your original XP Machine up and running again. Run the mergid Registry edit. Then extract the .vhd again. After you have a new .vhd with the mergeid edit, you can do the convert, and boot a new KVM. I have been using the program VHD2Disk for all of my hardware Windows machines...

    Booting Virtual XP Mode image in KVM

    I have... repeatedly. I have to install the mergeid first. Then I run VHD2DISK I run a qmconvert for the vhd. Create a new virtual machine for the XP KVM. Move the original .qcow2 file in command line. Move the CONVERTED qcow2 file in the same path and filename as the original. Then I boot...

    virtual SME 8.1 64bit Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work!

    I just had this happen with a recent update in SME (which didn't resolve all dependancies for some reason).I was originally using the CPU qemu64, but when I got this error, I changed the CPU to kvm64.I am using dual E5520, and for most of my KVM's I have to set CPU to Nehalm, but it seems that...

    New 3.1 user - stupid simple questions

    It is ideal to have a hardware RAID1 for Proxmox, as it does not support software RAID. There are some other issues regarding I/O, but that is dependent on the hardware that you get. To combat that, I usually rely on NFS

    Network connections best practices

    If you are serious about Proxmox, and may have expansion later on, I would separate all 4 networks. You will probably end up with: eth0 - vmbr0 - Storage/Cluster Network eth1 - vmbr1 - Local LAN eth2 - vmbr2 - Public WAN eth3 - vmbr3 - Guest WiFi or Optional physical network for anything...

    Virtual Switch with cluster

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say there is no way this can work between two separate Proxmox machines, even clustered. There must be a connection, either Physical or VLAN. https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Network_Model

    Virtual Switch with cluster

    Now I'm confused. Scenario: I have Proxmox clustered across 192.168.0.0/24 network which is eth0/vmbr0 I have a LAN network MIRRORED 10.100.1.0/24 network which is eth1/vmbr1 on both Prox systems. eth0 is connected to Switch 1 eth1 is connected to Switch 2 According to your explanation, if...

    PROXMOX crash when VM Windows is run

    I figured as much when you said "Nobody?" So I thought, it's best if I put something...hey, we may even come up with a solution. Just know that a lot of the guys on here don't use AMD and Windows. You have some that do, but the majority don't use AMD, and the number of don't's increase with...

    Virtual Switch with cluster

    I did something similar with this. I have a quad NIC in each server. eth0 = vmbr0 eth1 = vmbr1 eth2 = vmbr2 eth3 = vmbr3 = Linux Bridge I wanted a DMZ for internal servers and placed all the Linux VM's on vmbr3. This is mirrored on my Second Proxmox system, where I have a pfSense firewall on...

    PROXMOX crash when VM Windows is run

    I've had issues in the past with AMD processors and Windows VM's. They never shut my system down, but they were inoperable and caused endless boots on my VM. Try using different processors for the Windows VM CPU type. Also, I don't think your storage type will cause this type of issue. Another...

    Roadmap to KVM Templates

    I think there is no reviving this thread. Everything will be in the context of hostility. Instead of trying to justify what I was saying and the meaning behind it, it will be much easier to just say... I am under the impression, although *nix based KVM Templates may be something that is desired...

    Roadmap to KVM Templates

    Wow. Every once in a while, conversations go over the top on these forums. I just read all of this dance and I'm not really clear. TEMPLATES are being used as "We want to be able to download a Windows Server 2012 Template and it is already setup"? Like preformatted templates? So this is to...

    What is CEPH???

    This is not a question for Proxmox, but I trust the Proxmox forums (moderators can delete if need be). I read a lot of the benefits of CEPH, and how you can expand and manage it easily, but what exactly is it. I went with ZFS network attached storage because I could understand it. It's software...

    Schedule Snapshot (Not Backups)

    https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=493Until then, I am going to work on that backup. Where are Snapshots saved? Are they able to be saved on different shared storages? I ask to see if standard backup utility is still needed for recurring backups for full copies.
