    Hard Drive Passthrough

    Some of these answers seem to be talking about apssing through a HDD to a qemu (qm) virtual machine, rather than an LXC container. It took me a while to get OpenMediaVault working in an LXC container, but you can see my solution here...

    Can I install plex , transmission , rtorrent and other application ?

    I am working (and close to achieving) running Emby.tv (similar to Plex) in one container and Kodi in another container with direct access to the main HDMI (audio + video) out of the Proxmox box. This way you can keep the stability of putting these apps in containers whilst still taking advantage...

    LXC - Pass-through Intel Integrated Graphics

    Thanks Tom - I since I am looking to output full-hd video from Kodi right from the box I guess x2go isn't going to work for me... Or are you using the x2go server in the container and x2go client on the host? Would that work particularly well for video or would it me and unnecessary amount of...

    LXC - Pass-through Intel Integrated Graphics

    Hi Spirit - Have you had any luck adding support for this to Proxmox, can you give an example of what config changes would need to be made to 'passthrough' a graphics card so I can get a video output from one of my containers? M

    LXC - Cannot assign a block device to container

    Just another update for my own reference and in case it helps anyone... The "mknod" command is not persistent, so it would need to be run each time the container is started. To make things persistent you can use a script stored on the Proxmox host which is triggered by a setting in the...

    LXC - Cannot assign a block device to container

    Oh! - Silly me. Thanks for explaining! I have added: lxc.aa_profile = lxc-container-default-with-mounting lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = b 8:16 rwm lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = b 8:17 rwm But I don't see anything with fdisk -l or ls /dev Do you know how I should be attaching a physical disk so it...

    LXC - Cannot assign a block device to container

    I have updated to beta 2, but I still can't work how I should be getting this to work. Could somebody please explain where I should be adding custom LXC config statements? Thanks! :)

    LXC - Pass-through Intel Integrated Graphics

    Yes, I have seen this before which is why I think it should be possible to achieve - but it's too complicated for me to understand and I'm not entirely sure how it translates to various commands within ProxMox or the CLI. HELP! :)

    LXC - Pass-through Intel Integrated Graphics

    Sorry, I probably shouldn't have used the word "pass-through" I know you can't pass-through physical hardware in LXC (and because I don't have VT-d I can't pass-through in KVM either. However, my understanding is that you can passthrough any device in the host kernel to the container and the...

    Thanks Spirit. Is there a schedule for package builds or are they just produced when there are enough changes in git? M

    LXC - Container memory usage is above 90%

    Hi all I have been experimenting with LXC, in particular OpenMediaVault running on Debian 7 in a container and I've found that after using the container for a while Proxmox shows the memory usage above 90% (sometimes 100%), but within the container itself running the free command shows that...

    LXC - Cannot assign a block device to container

    Hi Spirit and Dietmar Were you able to make the updates you mentioned? I've not seen any new updates available via apt-get. Should I be getting these updates in a different way? Thanks, Matt

    Can't access Debian CT and few other issues!

    Hi Keanu I have had very similar issues with Debian 8 as a CT (Login incorrect or not showing login at all). I haven't resolved this, but I have been able to login as root via ssh. The equivalent command to vzctl is lxc-console -n 101 (for container 101). However this will just give you the...

    LXC - Cannot assign a block device to container

    Ahh perfect. Thanks for letting me know. I will continue to plan for my system to use LXC rather than KVM then :)

    LXC - Cannot assign a block device to container

    Thanks Artea - I think that line might also be required. But either way, Proxmox doesn't seem to like the lxc.cgroup.devices.allow line. Has anyone been able to get this to work?

    LXC - Cannot assign a block device to container

    I want to passthrough my /dev/sdb to a LXC container running OpenMediaVault. Running # lxc-device add -n 102 /dev/sdb Seems to work perfectly, and /dev/sdb is visible in the container. Unfortunately this command is temporary and doesn't survive a reboot The solution seems to be to use...
