    [SOLVED] KVM VMs suddenly way higher CPU usage (not a problem of proxmox)

    Hello, the problem of the sudden increase from ~ 0-3 % cpu usage to 12.5% per KVM VM was caused by another server in the dataserver. Our system got all its traffic which was then transfered to the VMs. We could observe around 4,000 to 10,000 connections with a bandwith of 1.5 - 3 MB/s. This was...

    Restore a disk image ?

    running fsck fixes it in so far that i can mount the vda again, but the main part of data then is "recovered" to the lost+found folder... i guess i cannot do anything now to recover the data of the raw image file?

    Questions while setting up a new proxmox server

    Yes, what i was trying to achieve with that earlier xen setup was the following: I think back in that time I had 4 cores also with a count of 8 threads, which gave you 8 cpu ids: 0-7. What I did on that xen was assinging one VM to the cpu ids 0-3 and the other 2 VMs to 4-7. The goal was to never...

    Questions while setting up a new proxmox server

    Yes that was indeed the reason: So one VM can not interfere with the CPU "power" of the other VM. I had that setup some years ago on a xenserver. Googling "kvm cpu affinity" or "xen cpu affinity" give some results that might have mislead me.

    Questions while setting up a new proxmox server

    Hi, yes I meant the cpu cores. I read some information about kvm being able to set cpu affinity for VMs. So this is not possible using proxmox i guess. Thanks again for your fast anwser.
