    Imported VM boot looping, how to fix?

    An old Mac Mini (Late 2014 model) is on the official ESXi supported list, I suppose I could run it on that...

    Imported VM boot looping, how to fix?

    I checked with Singlewire support again, and they said, "The Physical host would need to be running ESXI; running from within Proxmox would not be supported."

    Imported VM boot looping, how to fix?

    I thought "VMware Linux Based Virtual Appliance" implied VMWare player... what does that mean I wonder? Running ESXi inside Proxmox just seems silly to me... do people really do that? We could get their physical box (Intel Celeron N3160 1.6GHz quad core processor with 4GB of RAM and a 128GB...

    Imported VM boot looping, how to fix?

    Agreed. Singlewire support says, "Please take a look at this document about our supported matrix-server-platforms. Proxmox is not supported." So looks like I'm going to be setting up VMware Workstation Player on a dedicated PC for this.

    Imported VM boot looping, how to fix?

    I'm trying to set up a virtual appliance called Informacast Fusion and after importing it, it starts to go through the boot process then I guess crashes and the VM reboots, over and over. Here is the installation info from the maker (they only talk about VMWare)...

    Windows Server update causing boot issues with VirtIO SCSI

    I will test that out as soon as I have a chance. Meanwhile, further digging reveals that driver signing changed at some point. Comparing the vioscsi.sys driver from virtio-win-0.1.189.iso vs. virtio-win-0.1.225.iso one can immediately see a difference: the older driver was issued by "Symantec...

    Windows Server update causing boot issues with VirtIO SCSI

    I agree that I should be able to do that, but that method is throwing an error, which looks like it might be related to driver signing (see above).

    Windows Server update causing boot issues with VirtIO SCSI

    I did download the ISO from https://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virtio-win/direct-downloads/archive-virtio/virtio-win-0.1.225-2/ which by all accounts is the latest. I ran the installation wizard again and tried selecting "Feature will be installed when required" and while it did finish the...

    Windows Server update causing boot issues with VirtIO SCSI

    So I thought I'd test out the latest VirtIO SCSI drivers, but I can't even install the latest from virtio-win-0.1.225.iso which is what is linked to as the current stable drivers. I mounted the ISO in the VM, and first tried running virtio-win-gt-x64.msi but that results in this error as soon as...

    Windows Server update causing boot issues with VirtIO SCSI

    All drivers have been installed from day 1 when all the VMs were set up about two years ago, and the Windows Device Manager has been checked with the DVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES environment variable set to 1 and show hidden devices. VMs have been running fine through hundreds of Windows...

    Windows Server update causing boot issues with VirtIO SCSI

    Summary: I had to detach Windows Server boot drives in our Server 2012 R2 and 2019 VMs to change their configuration from SCSI to IDE so that Windows Server would no longer get stuck endless booting this morning (spinning circle, no error, no crash, but no progress in the boot process). Windows...

    Accidentally set up ZFS as just mirrors instead of stripe of mirrors - how best to fix?

    Yes, the command is zpool add and it worked great adding both disks back in at the same time using mirror in the same command. Thanks very much to both of you, my ZFS is now set up the way I originally intended, and with no system downtime!

    Accidentally set up ZFS as just mirrors instead of stripe of mirrors - how best to fix?

    Normally when I set up ZFS in Proxmox I do this to create a stripe of mirrors: zpool create -f -o ashift=12 r10zpool mirror wwn-0x50000398db881f5d wwn-0x50000398db881f67 mirror wwn-0x50000398db881f5a wwn-0x50000398db881f5e However on a recent server I accidentally forgot the second "mirror"...

    How much risk with the No-Subscription Repository?

    It hadn't occurred to me to investigate if partners could act as an intermediary for the purchase of a license! Thanks for mentioning that, I will look into those companies. Glancing at their websites, at least one looks like they could offer what we need...

    How much risk with the No-Subscription Repository?

    I've been trying for more than a year to get our school district to be able to pay for a subscription to Proxmox, however since we are in the US and the district cannot pay for things without receiving an invoice, do not (and cannot have) a credit card or PayPal, it means we just can't buy...
