    Migrate W2012 R2 from XenServer?, anyone?

    Hi, I have a VM wunning on top of XenCenter and I would like to migrate to Proxmox (USB passthrough on XenCenter sucks). Nevertheless, this is a critical machine and downtime must be kept small.

    Sharing physical COM port with two servers

    Hi, I was wondering if it would be possible to share the same physical COM device with two virtual servers at the same time. This is just an INPUT COM key, so servers will not be writing on it. At this point I am able to use it for a single server by adding this to the server config file...

    Snapshots option grayed out

    Hi, I have a brand new proxmox server with just local storage. I have noticed that none of the VMs running on it have the Snapshot option enabled. The server has been restarted, we have checked times, etc... but no luck. Disks are qcow2. I have seen previous posts like this on the forum but...

    System clock moving fast forward ! (W2000)

    Hi, Recently I migrated a P2V W2000 server. We have now realized that the system clock on the new VM is moving tooooo fast. Perhaps 4-5 seconds in a real time second. In fact, if you open the date-time settings window, you can see the clock hands moving rapidly... Any hints on what is going...

    Dell PERC H310 out of the box? And performance? Suggestions?

    Hi, Just wanted to make sure that installation from Proxmox Isos will work out of the box for this RAID card. Also, as this card does not seem to sport BBU nor write back capabilities, I suspect performance will be terrible. Therefore, I would like to receive some feedback on which model should...

    Dell R420 and PERc H310

    Hi, I remember some time ago when performing a 2.0 installation that we had to recompile the drivers for this RAID controller (H310 from DELL). Is this step required any longer with proxmox 3.x?. Bests, Jose

    Is hardware compatibility that of RHEL?

    Dear all, I was asking in a previous thread about RAID+SSDs or PCIe SSD. Then I realized the Proxmox kernel is based on that from RHEL. My question is... Does all hardware working on RHEL work on Proxmox?. Should all kernel modules developed for RHEL be compatible with Proxmox?. If not, how...

    PCIe SSD experiencia with proxmox?

    Hi all, i am planning a new proxmox infrastructure which requires high I/O performance and was thinking about including PCIe SSD disks. Due to their high costs, we cannot buy them just for testing and finding they do not behave well under Debian/Proxmox. I would be delighted if any of could...

    DRBD, network and runlevel

    Hi, Upon rebooting one of my machines (a cluster of two), everything seems to be right with DRBD re-sync. Nevertheless, after a noticeable (thorugh ping) network loss (a couple of seconds), one of the DRBD partitions (that already appeared as UpToDate) losses sync and I get a split brain...

    Acronis inside VM, anyone?

    Hello, One client machine (hardware) was ported from a 2000 Server to a Proxmox VM with 2003 Server (wow !). Everything runs smooth but the Acronis software included on it for incremental backups. Is this a problem with acronis or with the VM?. Shouldn't a backup program run inside a virtual...

    Hello, We have an HA cluster with two nodes. The vmbr0 interface is bound to the eth2 interface NIC. Such NIC is a Gigabit one and the e1000e driver is correctly working on it. Under some circumstances we are not able to reproduce, the interface speed changes from 1000 mbps to 100 mbps. Is this...

    What to expect from SPICE

    Hi all, Some customers are asking for desktop virtualization features. As far as I understand, it is possible to run client OSs under Proxmox (I have used it with Windows XP) and then let the user access them through console, which is not optimal for a client environment. Now I see SPICE...
