    AES-NI extension on guest CPU?

    AFAIK - using cpu=host basically gives you're VM complete access to the CPU. All i can suggest is that you look at these two pages: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Allow_Guests_Access_to_Host_CPU http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Tuning_KVM

    windows 7 32bit under kvm freezes when rebooting

    Proxmox and storage sas

    i suspect you will still need to use multipath-tools and have a similar multipath.conf as the one on the iSCSI multipath. in the end i paid Proxmox to setup the multipathing correctly - it might be woth you doing the same if you cannot find out how to do it otherwise.
