    Setting TX to 4096 on Windows 2025 VM?

    One of my Windows VMs operates with Blue Iris and has a ton of cameras on it. I had to increase the RX and TX to 4096 so that I would stop getting packet loss with the default values. I am not too versed on how this works, but my `interfaces` on the host looks like the below: iface enp6s0f0 inet...

    Proxmox ZFS 80% Rule, Pool or VM Storage?

    I have spare PSUs and RAM I can pull same day not an issue, disk failure is far longer to resolve. The rest you mentioned don't concern me as much, not everything needs to be HA. Streaming data to disks 24/7 is probably gonna cause disk failure more than anything else listed. Regardless RAID is...

    Proxmox ZFS 80% Rule, Pool or VM Storage?

    https://www.45drives.com/community/articles/zfs-80-percent-rule/, there are some threads about it as well. As previously mentioned I am not using RAID to mirror 1 disk. I have 3 disks, where 1 is parity, 18TB is not enough for my use case. I could add a 4th drive though and from what I gather...

    Proxmox ZFS 80% Rule, Pool or VM Storage?

    I am using RAID since one 18TB Exo is not enough and I need failure tolerance so my recordings don't disappear if a disk fails.

    Proxmox ZFS 80% Rule, Pool or VM Storage?

    I have a Proxmox server that houses an NVR with Blue Iris, it runs as a VM and I have a ZFS Pool with 3 x 18TB Seagate Exos in RAIDZ1-0. On that ZFS Pool, I have a VM Storage of 32000GB or 32TB for my Blue Iris VM to house recordings. Lately Blue Iris has been complaining about Disk write being...

    Passing Partial Disks from Proxmox to TrueNAS?

    I am a bit of a loss here and need someone to confirm if I need to get some sort of controller or if its possible to do what I am asking. I have a E3C246D4U2-2T motherboard that has a total of 8 SATA ports. 2 of the SATA ports have SSDS in RAID1 for Proxmox + VMs. The remaining 6 have HDDs...

    Does ZFS arc adjust with more VMs?

    Interesting, so is there any point to turning min and max for ZFS then since it will pull from the ZFS arc? or should I then really be setting a min that adheres to the 4GB + 1GB/1TB rule? That way no VM will hijack the memory allocated to ZFS arc, thereby reducing performance?

    Does ZFS arc adjust with more VMs?

    I know in the past historically it has used 50% of RAM for ZFS arc and I believe (if I am not mistaken) this amount has been reduced to 10% on new installs (I saw a comment to that affect, but I dont have any new installs to confirm). Lets say you have 32GB of RAM. 16GB goes to ZFS arc, leaving...

    High RAM Usage?

    I am sure there is a thread about this, but I am not sure where to look. I think its ZFS related, but I don't understand the reason. I currently have a proxmox server with: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X 192GB RAM 2 x 4TB NVME, On it, I have 3 VMs 1 x Windows VM, allocated 8 cores, 16GB RAM 2 x Debian VM...

    CPU Models & Flags

    To start, I am trying to optimize performance with Proxmox VMs to use as much of my host CPU performance within 1-2 generations of current. My host machine is running a Ryzen 5800X. All the machines I will be running these VMs will be at least that generation or better. While performance testing...

    Oh wow, didn't know the that guide existed. Thank you for the extra resource! I was differing to the proxmox wiki.

    Backup Schedule Field Format?

    Is there any documentation about the correct format for this field in the webui? For example if say I want to do every day at 4 AM or every other day at 4 AM. I searched the backup portion of the wiki but there wasn't much being discussed on this subject.

    Firewall entries disappear?

    You are absolutely correct. I cant believe I missed that completely.

    Firewall entries disappear?

    I am updated all the way to the latest and have no remaining updates on my Proxmox instance. When I first setup Proxmox, the first step I did was enable the firewall for the hypervisor and only accept packets from my home IP address. This was all done via the Firewall > Add via the Proxmox Web...

    Changing Proxmox Management Interface?

    I dunno if I missed something in the documentation but I can't find any info about this. I have a total of 6 NICs in my existing server, fresh install of proxmox currently sits on vmbr0 which has port eno1 under its ports/slaves, after I get setup I would like to switch promox to vmbr1 which...

    Local LVM vs Local

    Understood, that makes more sense. In my mind local and local-lvm were on the same level or local was above local-lvm, hence my confusion. Thank you.

    Local LVM vs Local

    Am I understanding correctly then its Drive -> EXT4 -> Local-LVM -> Local?

    Local LVM vs Local

    I can't seem to find a good explanation for this. After installing Proxmox with the default ext4 partition scheme I see the following: Can someone explain the difference and the purpose of local vs local-lvm? As far as I can tell local is designed for housing isos, backups, etc while...
