    [SOLVED] Optimal Disk Layout to avoid troubles with Storage Migration

    Help! :) I have four servers with 3x drive bays and have them populated with either 2x Samsung SM863 or 2x Intel S3610. The drives are set up as a ZFS mirrored vdev with both ROOT and data being on the pair. One bay is open on each server. Normally I/O load on each server is low - iowait is...

    [SOLVED] Brocade 1020 on PX4.1 host + VirtIO net on guest == TX Checksum Badness

    Howdy all, I recently upgraded my Proxmox 3.4 install to 4.1 and since the upgrade, I can't use the VirtIO network driver on Linux clients. (We don't run Windows, so I can't test.) The setup is fairly basic, a Quanta LB4M switch with 2x 10G SFP+ ports, two servers each with a Brocade 1020 CNA...
