    ProxmoxVE will change LICENCE?

    That's why you have mirrors. There a lots of companies and universities who provide mirror space for open source projects.But proxmox team obviously dind't wan to go that way. That's why you have to involve the community. Something that Proxmox failed to accomplish especially in the beginning...

    Startup Order

    Thanx again. I think now I got it. All VMs with the same "Order" value are started in the ascending sequence of their VM IDs, and when Proxmox hits a VM with a configured startup delay, it pauses for N seconds and the continues with the next VM or the next "Order group". Is this correct?

    Startup Order

    Thank you for the information. But how would I configure it if I wanted VM1 and VM2 be started concurrent and after 5 minutes VM3 and VM4?

    Startup Order

    Hello, I don't really understand how the startup order in proxmox works. For example, if I have 4 VMs. VM1: order=1, up=300 VM2: order=1, up=300 VM3: order=any VM4: order=any Will VM1 and VM2 be started concurrent and after 5 minutes VM3 and VM4? Or will Proxmox start VM1 and then wait 5...

    Suspend to Disk

    Hi, Is there a possibility to suspend a KVM VM to disk? Especially when rebooting the host it would be nice not to shutdown/powerup the VMs, but suspend/resume them.

    KSM behaviour on reboot

    Hello, I have one Proxmox node that uses KSM heavily (118GB assigned on 96GB physical RAM). Recently I had to reboot that node and after the reboot the VMs started up and began to eat up the RAM quickly. cat /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run showed KSM running, but pages_shared and pages_sharing ware...

    Proxmox and storage sas

    You don't need RDAC at all. Multipath replaces the RDAC kernel driver. Which is perfectly normal for all SAN storages in Linux. That's why you need multipathd installed and a correct multipath configuration.

    LVM manipulations on-the-fly

    FC SAN multipath I/O error slow down everything, udev blacklist needed?

    Hi! I had a similiar configuration (IBM DS4700). Don't know if it works with the DS3512 too, but you can try the following (but better backup your initrd first)... In /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf change MODULES=most to MODULES=dep In /etc/initramfs-tools/modules add scsi_dh_rdac...

    Performance guidance - home many VMs can run on a 4 cores server

    That's not true. KVM with KSM allocates only the amount of memory, that the virtual OS uses. With KSM I can overprovision around 130-140% (eg. physical mem:96GB, provisioned: 130GB, used:80 GB). All are Linux KVM VMs, but with different distributions, and different workload (Oracle DBs...

    Live Migration Problem with Solaris Guest

    I copied (dd) the Xen LV over ssh to an empty Proxmox LV. Thats why I originally expected to have a raw volume on Proxmox. I converted the proxmox LV with qemu-img today and live migration now works as expected.

    Live Migration Problem with Solaris Guest

    Actually I wasn't aware that I did. But probably this is because the VM was migrated from some Xen server. I hope qemu-img convert can fix this.

    High availability with multi master?

    Sure. As long as you have a quorum disk (see: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Two-Node_High_Availability_Cluster) and enough free resources (especially RAM) on both nodes, so that all your VMs can run on one node if the other one fails.

    High availability with multi master?

    You can have any number of cluster nodes. All nodes can have running VMs. If one node fails, the VMs from that node will be automatically transfered to another running cluster node.

    non-HA cluster quorum and votes

    I'm talking of a NON-HA cluster (no rgmanager running)! You can't simply start a VM on another node with this type of cluster (it's like the "cluster" in 1.x). All you can do (and all I want) is live migration between cluster nodes. So this should not be a problem with "expected votes=1". I had...

    non-HA cluster quorum and votes

    Hi all! Today I had to reboot my 8 node non-HA cluster because of a storage migration. When I turned on the nodes one-by-one the cluster did not get quorate on the first 4 nodes and the VMs on these nodes did not start. After the 5th node the cluster got the quorum and the VMs on node 5 to 8...
