    [SOLVED] How to reduce latency of internal bridge connection between two VMs

    Apologies - I'd misread the output of ping. The latency is incredibly low... below 1ms. When I read the output, I missed the leading '0.' and thought I was reading latencies of hundreds of ms, not hundreds of microseconds.:rolleyes:

    [SOLVED] How to reduce latency of internal bridge connection between two VMs

    I have two VMs on the same internal bridge (post about it here); and at the moment when I ping one vm from the other, the latency is in the 100s of ms. I was really surprised by this (the switch is not physical, and communication between the VMs is happening on the same physical computer, so I...

    [SOLVED] how to setup network interface configuration for local bridge to connect two vms

    For anyone stumbling on this thread, the problem was the /etc/networks/interfaces file. The entry for the internal bridge should be: auto [INTERFACE, e.g enp6s18] iface [INTERFACE, e.g enp6s18] inet static address [IP_ADDRESS, e.g. 10.0.1.100] netmask [NETMASK, e.g. 255.255.255.0] There's no...

    [SOLVED] how to setup network interface configuration for local bridge to connect two vms

    I'm looking for a detailed explanation of how to configure the network interfaces on two vms to connect them to the same local bridge. My use case is a TrueNAS Scale VM that I want to access from a debian server VM where I'll run plex. I've set up a new bridge under networking (called 'media')...

    [SOLVED] Accessing existing ZFS pool from VM

    I installed zfs-utils on the guest, and created that service on the guest, then rebooted. When I rebooted, nothing seemed different - 'zpool list' returned no pools. If it worked, where should I find the zpool TANK mounted? I really only want plex media server, so using a container would be...

    [SOLVED] Accessing existing ZFS pool from VM

    Thanks for the speedy reply. 'Dunno why you want that pool in a VM' ... I'd like to run Plex in the VM; and so I'm trying to set up access to the files on the zpool. Whether or not the guest system sees the files as stored on a zpool is unimportant. Hope that clarifies the request.

    [SOLVED] Accessing existing ZFS pool from VM

    [SOLVED] Accessing existing ZFS pool from VM

On the host machine (running proxmox), I've imported a zfs pool (let's call it 'TANK') that I moved from a previous build (FreeNAS) using the following command in proxmox: zpool import -f...
