I'm running Vyatta in a VM as my firewall and wish to use vlan trunking to simplify my configuration (I have 80 or so vlans). Is it possible to just pass through one interface into the VM that contains the entire trunk?

I have a large disk attached to a VM I'm using (10TB). I don't want to have this disk backed up with all the other disks (about 700G). What can I do to disable to backing up of that disk, but allow the primary disk of that VM to be backed up? running 2.1 virtio0: vm-os:vm102-disk-1 virtio1...

It should work now as of http://git.kernel.org/linus/07700a94b00a4fcbbfb07d1b72dc112a0e036735 Is there any way we can get this as a test kernel?

Currently,when a VM uses multiple disks and you set a backup job you can only backup the entire VM or not. Meaning you cannot choose a single disk from the VM to backup. Is this issue fixed in proxmox-2.0 I'd like to avoid backing up terabytes of data :|

from what I can tell, the 2.6.35 kernel is not working with IOMMU, is that right? The device is behind a pcie to pci bridge, do I need to specify the bridge device only (as it is now), or do I need specify both devices (adding 02:08.0)? conf file name: pbx bootdisk: virtio0 vlan3...

I am planing a buildout and trying to get a feel of what virt software I wish to use (I know it is going to be kvm based). DRBD does not seem to be capable of scaling as I would need it. I am trying to get rid of the requirement of a san and ceph looks like it can fill that hole quite well...

You can add cache=none to the options when defining a disk. This has been tested to eliminate the performance hit of caching and increase IO performance of guests. http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/48471 http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Tuning_KVM explains the...

Is there any stated time-frame for 2.0?

http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/3624-virtio-net-race-condition-unpatched-in-proxmox-ve-1.5?p=20284 That bug was fixed but other virtio bugs were introduced... There is still a bug (a different one). I'd recomend that people stay away from virtio-net and virtio-blk (if your disks are over...

When the kvm command is run, the vm disks are passed through in the wrong order. here is my conf file. name: library bootdisk: virtio0 ostype: l26 memory: 512 onboot: 1 sockets: 1 virtio0: os-images:vm-102-disk-1 description: torrents,samba,irssi<br>10.0.1.5 cores: 1 localtime: 1 boot: c...

I'm in the #kvm channel on freenode and have been experiencing the same issue. I thought it was virtio-blk (disk). I was told there was a patch submitted to trunk on Feb 8 to kvm. Here is the information I gathered from mjt. Issue described...

Is it supported (avialable) currently?

I have a gigabit network that I'd like to use but since the VMs speed is set to 10 Mbs I can't... Here is my ethtool output ethtool vmtab108i3 Settings for vmtab108i3: Supported ports: [ ] Supported link modes: Supports auto-negotiation: No Advertised link modes: Not reported...

Well qm list hangs on listing VMs not much to say as I am going to be rebooting the server to fix it. On another note, a VM crashed at about the same time (I think, it was 2 AM).

How do you keep FS consistency when snapshotting a live VM (on LVM)?

I have a VM with a storage partition that I don't want to backup, is there any chance I will be able to only backup the primary partition only?

I am migrating from an existing installation that was using LVM in raw format for the disk images. I added the VG. While I can modify the conf file for the vm to point to the vm it does not start up. how do I add the existing LV to the storage model?
