    Can PVE be updated safely while VMs are running?

    Goodmorning, we would like to ask some questions about PVE upgrades: - Is it possible to "dist-upgrade" the PVE safely while VMs are running? - If a new kernel is installed in the process, do we need to reboot or could keep using safely the old one until the reboot enable the new one? This...

    Question about Windows Server 2022 compatibility

    Unfortunately the client required a lot of Windows Server 2022 VMs, so we need to know if there are any known incompatibilities before proceeding with the installation. In April 2018, we encountered issues with a server deployment where some Windows Server 2016 VMs were used, they randomly...

    Windows Server 2016 frequent lockups with 100% CPU

    Hi Oxib, yes I've been able to resolve via Proxmox support. Basically I installed a package (vlan) via APT which removed the package "proxmox-ve" and prevented pve kernels to be updated.

    Windows Server 2016 frequent lockups with 100% CPU

    No luck. :( VMs still experience lockups and I had to create a script that runs every 5 minutes, pings the guest agent and powercycles the vm when it doesn't reply. It's not the best solution, I know, but at least this reduces the downtime.

The backup storage is set to maintain 5 copies, and at the current time there are already 5 copies, so at the next backup the oldest should be deleted...
