Turn mitigations off if you can ie pve is not connected to internet. Also are both disks on the same storage ? WIn10 is faster with lvm-yhin than qcow2.

It would be interesting to see a comparison of a restore if that's available. The difference between the SSD's and the spinning discs should be significant when restoring.

Yes it is. Just as fast, if not faster than a windows 10 VM. I am passing through graphics. But its also ok for testing using nomachine.

I have exactly the same setup as you. The trick is to have your workstations i.e. windows and Mac options shut down order to be last with a delay, I use 360 secs. I generally have Windows on a Mac plus a few servers running. When finished for the day I log into the web GUI and shutdown pVE. In...

Have a look at this thread. Sounds similar https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/optimizing-guest-cpu-performance.127766/#post-559229

I have similar setup. Use hardware raid card and run 4*1TB mirrors with BBU. Keep it simple, Tried and Tested.

Morning, Not quite although I dont know the answer. I just ran the test on a plain vanilla win 10 via rdp (no pass through on this one) on same host with 1 socket 4 cores and only 8gb ram. Single thread is the same. So its not the RDP or the host/cores/numa that is the problem. agent: 1 boot...

Yes. I did this to solve another problem relating to Adobe software and DragonDictate. Both of these use the Flexera comon software manager and as the VM was virtualised from my original workstation software would crash if you try to use host with a virtual number of cores. It was okay with...

I have a very similar setup 2* E5-2660. As described above I have set up the Vm to match the host with 2 sockets 16 cores. Results inc single thread are much better. So numa and matching cores seems to be the answer. It also stops adobe software crashing when it does its checking thing.

Same here the problem is with a migrated Vm which inc the software ie photoshop acrobat etc.

FWIW I am also running a 2 socket xeon.

Not sure if this is related but I also get a blue screen with host cpu when I run some Adobe software and Dragon. I think this is due to the common software manager and a piece of software called Flexnet which is used for authorisation. It runs on start-up as a service or when you launch the...

I have virtualised my Windows workstation which has 3 virtual disks. I'm trying to configure a nightly backup job to PBS which only includes one of the disks as I don't need to backup the whole window system every night. It seems that you can only choose to backup selected disks at the VM guest...

Included the kvm.conf rebooted. The error has an extra line re callbacks but still present in both the syslog and the kern.log.. Apr 17 11:48:24 rx300s7-1-pve kernel: [ 1828.932183] vmx_set_msr: 461 callbacks suppressed Apr 17 11:48:24 rx300s7-1-pve kernel: [ 1828.932189] kvm [2339]: vcpu2...

I tried but I do not have a file kvm.conf in etc/modprobe.d Unsure whether to create new one or not ? Thanks Paul

Updated to 7.4.3 This error is still filling up the syslog. Its the same Win10 guest with cpu set to qemu64 kernel: [ 7883.754609] kvm [11636]: vcpu0, guest rIP: 0xfffff800295fc152 vmx_set_msr: BTF|LBR in IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR 0x1, nop

I have my dev server dual xeon setup as a workstation with multiple VM's and passthrough a couple of nvidia gpu's and USB for headset. All works great I can snapshot, backup test configs etc brilliant except for one error on my main Win10 machine. I use dragon dictate (RSI issue) and if I set...

What do you have as the gateway for the NIC on the win PC ? The gateway on 0.8 win pc should be etho ip address and 1.8 eth2 ip address.

I do exactly that. You need a cpu/motherboard with built in graphics for proxmox. Add two extra gpu and an extra usb card. So you need at least three spare slots. I then pass through the GPU and the USB card to the Windows machine and a GPU and the built-in USB ports to the Mac and/or Linux. I...
