Im gonna bump this up because I would love to see this work for plex and blueiris!

I have the same issue, is there any resolution to this?

This exactly what I needed thank you for the help!

Hey all, hopefully a quick answer. I am looking to get 3 SSD's into raidz0, this will be a vm pool to reduce the ridiculous io delay I have now. I do have a solid redundancy strategy and backup system already in place. Would someone be able to point me to the cli commands or gui setup to make...

So I was thinking something like this https://www.fsplifestyle.com/en/product/TwinsPRO500W.html.

So, Ive been thinking about this too. The one solution I found was https://www.fsplifestyle.com/en/product/TwinsPRO500W.html . The reality is that this is the most redundancy that I need. If Anything else goes it can be replaced more economically than keeping more machines going.

Maybe it would clarify if I explained what I’m working with now to give a scaling idea I have 2 4u rosewill cases. System 1 is a Xeon server with a disk array. System 2 is a ryzen server with a 3080. System 1 handles all website, application and service needs and system two is the rdp and...

By small low-power boxes do you mean within existing server additions or another u unit?

Great reference! Potential wake on pci could enable the cu (potentially). Is there any reason nuc’s couldn’t be used as “prod” server or proxmox backup server?

isn’t 5v need for x16 or is that a signal line?

Oh I see what you mean, from a functionally point though if I’m adding just one node I have 5v and 3.3v on an empty slot might worth doing that over creating and replacing an entire server

So we are sorta back to burning pci ports for power, which I mean if you need multiple nodes that works. I wonder if a board could be created specific to this idea where you could isolate pci ports to compute nodes and have graphics cards or whatever linked

But how would that work communication with pci? Could you mix nics, gpu and cu? Not to split but dedicate between different cu?

Do you think there is a better way to do something similar? The idea is to save rack space, increase density and keep costs down

Funny you say that, I found this video -https://youtu.be/pB-zBSExMS4 which shows taping off some pins to be able to work in a pci slot. Though throwing away a slot essentially but it increases the amount of computer possible within the chassis itself

Hey all, so I recent became aware of the pci compute element intel nuc. If these function like i hope this would add a lot of compute density to my 4u server. Everything I’m thinking is in proxmox but I do not want to have to virtualize this within a copy of proxmox but instead act as if it were...

I appreciate all the help so far! As for the board, it does have integrated graphics, I'm pretty sure it is an Aspeed 2000. For the vfio-pci do you mean dropping that into the /etc/modules or would else where?

All good! Here is the information for the down machine that did work until driver updates ubuntu 20.04 agent: 1 balloon: 0 bios: ovmf boot: order=scsi0;net0 cores: 3 efidisk0: vmstore:113/vm-113-disk-0.qcow2,efitype=4m,pre-enrolled-keys=1,size=528K hostpci1: 0000:03:00,pcie=1,x-vga=1 machine...

It is an intel system just to clarify, I have been able to get an ubuntu instance running now with PCI passthrough, but the graphics card does not populate in the 03:00.0 or 03:00.1 by name. When I try hwinfo in terminal, it sees a VGA adapter. RDP worked until I tried to download the nvdia...

Hey all, back for some more help! I have two VM's I am trying to spin up with PCI passthrough. On both, I am getting QEMU failed with exit code 1. VM-win agent: 1 args: -cpu 'host, +kvm_pv_unhalt,+kvm_pv_eoi,hv_vendor_id=NV43FIX,kvm=off,kernel_irqchip=on' balloon: 0 bios: ovmf boot...
