    How to optimize VMs in a cluster

    Hello, I'm using PROXMOX Virtual Environment 6.4-6 I have a cluster with 4 nodes. I have activated HA which is great. But when a node is dead, it messes up the way I distributed my VMs accross the nodes to optimize RAM and CPU. I've been doing this manually. Now I'm wondering if there's a...

    Upgrading from 3.2-1 to 6.1

    Very interesting. My setup is as follow: only the OS and PROXMOX is stored on my PROXMOX box. An NFS share is mounted and all virtual machines are stored there (on a NAS, which is a separate box). So the most efficient way would be to just install a fresh install of v6.1, mount the NFS share...

    Help with Windows 10 VM

    Yes I agree. Ha! I don't think so. I'm running FreeNAS. It's running on FreeBSD. SMB shares are running SMB3_11, which is compatible with Windows 10. But I don't think it's a SMB problem. My Windows 10 VM doesn't even see the NAS ! It doesn't see the device, so I really think it's a network...

    Help with Windows 10 VM

    Like I said, many other Windows 10 physical machines can connect to the same NAS, so I don't think it's an issue with that !

    [SOLVED] Windows server 2019

    So I'm trying this and it doesn't work. 1) I tried both SCSI and VirtIO 2) Only difference here: I use the 0.1.173 drivers (virtio-win-0.1.173.iso). They have 2k19 version. I've tried both 2k16 and 2k19 and none work. 3) I tried forcing to load the driver because when I browse in the directory...

    USB key and VM

    Hi, I'm quite new to PROXMOX and this is - I feel - a very dumb question but I still haven't figured out how to do it. I have some content on a USB key. I would like a specific VM to have access to that USB. So how do I even do that ? I mean I can plug the USB key to the physical server...

    Converting IDE to VIRTIO

    m.ardito: that's what I was doing but it wouldn't work. When I was starting the VM, it would boot from the CD. I figured it had something to do with the boot order and the fact that the "new" VIRTIO HD was not in the boot sequence. Tried something : I removed the CD/DVD Drive from the...
