    [SOLVED] Converted 40GB (real) VHDX to RAW (256GB full) onto 150GB (real) Local-LVM

    I think only if your local file system is now completely filled. What is df -h? You can use the following commands to inspect the LVM storages pvs pvdisplay vgs vgdisplay lvs lvdisplay If you are unsure how to continue, then please also post your VM configuration qm config 108 Usually it...

    Questions about nested proxmox

    Ideally you have the same hardware for all cluster nodes. It is possible to use different hardware, but this limits for example the cpu options for your virtual machines. Especially for nested virtualization this can be bad. The resources for any virtual machine can be configured in the GUI...

    Windows server 2019 Critical structure corruption, nested virtualization

    I was able to start an Alpine Linux VM with args: -cpu kvm64,+vmx so generally using VMs with this combination should work. I guess the same holds for +svm. However, my Windows VM did not start correctly either. Note: It might be convenient to declare custom CPU types instead of using args.

    Windows server 2019 Critical structure corruption, nested virtualization

    One note: The output of Coreinfo seems to be wrong with regard to the vmx|svm flags. A Debian guest (booted from live iso) displayed vmx to me (I have a Xeon here to test) in /proc/cpuinfo while Coreinfo in the Windows 10 VM displayed it as off - but the VM configuration was the same (up to...

    Windows server 2019 Critical structure corruption, nested virtualization

    I just removed the "args" part from the wiki guide about nested virtualization. Using only "cpu: host" without "args" might be worth a try. Or another kernel. But apart from trying different kernels and changing CPU flags there is not much that we can do in PVE, I think.

    Windows server 2019 Critical structure corruption, nested virtualization

    Is there any chance that you could install your software into a VM directly on Proxmox VE instead of Virtualbox?

    VMWARE windows VM migration to proxmox fails

    Hi, I think the message is missing? Have you tried using Seabios already? Maybe using OVMF/UEFI is bad in this specific case.

    importovf fails due to permission

    Can you create any other VMs on local-lvm & import single disks to it? Something like qm create 200 --name test --scsi0 local-lvm:5 qm importdisk 200 /tmp/pve/disk1.vmdk local-lvm Is it possible to use importovf with any other storage, for example local?

    Windows server 2019 Critical structure corruption, nested virtualization

    Hi, does the BSOD only appear when you run Virtualbox? Do other Windows server VMs run correctly? Your problems looks related to this https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-server/performance/stop-error-0x109-on-vmware-virtual-machine to me. What we can do is try to replicate...

    Importing VM from ESXi 5.1

    Hi, both importovf and importdisk should work. Roughly, importovf = (create VM + importdisk). Remark: The parameter qcow2 on (thin) LVM storages will be ignored in importovf & importdisk. For (thin) LVM storages Proxmox VE only supports raw images. Have you tried changing BIOS/UEFI for the VM...

    Which disk configuration should I use?

    Depends on how heavily you customize your installation. Depends on if you prefer backups or availability. If you have only a ZFS mirror and something goes wrong within a VM then it goes wrong on both disks. Depends on how much storage your VMs require. Generally it is not necessary that...
