I also had this exact same problem in Proxmox 8.1 and similar qemu settings; using all virtio drivers in the Windows 11 vm (scsi, network, balloon, vioserial, qxldod).
I also already tried everything OP tried.
For me it began like this:
In november, I think, just when the Windows 11 23H2 ISO...
So installed a Win11 guest with UEFI, TPM2, VirtIO drivers, and SPICE.
I think I have disk performance problems:
Overall, compared to a bare metal Win11 installation, the "experience" feels indeed usable but a bit "laggy"; for example in the Start Menu opening, contextual menus with...
Here the Proxmox version is old, 5.2. We still don't have subscription...
Now we need to install a VM with Rocky Linux 9 -with UEFI-, which already uses kernel 5.x, but when creating a new VM in Proxmox of course it still says up until kernel 4.x.
Could we still go freely with the VM...
Is it allowed to try reporting possible enhancements as well in the bug tracker website, and not just bugs per se?

Thanks.
Oohhh, so straight answer to OP is indeed a Proxmox original thing. Yes, I think I meant "auto-ballooning" since the beginning.
As much as I initially read, this was not possible with pure QEMU/KVM:
https://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Projects/auto-ballooning
And only possible manually by setting...
Thanks very much sir.
I set up a VM with RAM ballooning via the web GUI, with total RAM 8 Gb and minimum RAM 4 Gb.
However, even with "qm showcmd" the *only* balloon thing I could see was the virtio-balloon-pci device, with options "addr" and "free-page-reporting", which are not documented in...
At office we use Proxmox for production use. But for particular desktop user I wanted to give pure qemu-system-<arch> a try.
After a big while of studying I think I got almost everything needed, except the detail of "automatic ballooning"; i.e., automatic memory allocation...
I see many threads here talking about Win11 guests, so this tells me it's indeed possible.
So I was trying to setup one, by following the best practices for Win10:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Windows_10_guest_best_practices
and hit a problem: using latest virtio-win ISO, within the qxldod...
Just attempting again in case I wasn't able to explain myself.
In Proxmox host web interface, I erroneously set the VM's disk to 1.3 Tb in the VM's hardware options in web interface. Physical disk in bare metal server is just 1 Tb.
The VM is stored in Proxmox's default local storage, I think...
As mentioned, new size in guest's file system is right.
But, what consequences will it have to have a virtual disk in Proxmox host interface larger than host disk's physical size?
Hello.
After many searches and some time testing, I'd like to propose a solution for installing Proxmox from ISO image located in a different partition. It involves adding some additional checkings in initrd init script, which will only enter if specifically selecting this kind of boot...
I enlarged an old Centos 7 guest's virtual disk with file system XFS, by first enlarging disk in Proxmox host (web interface or qm command), then enlarging partition from within VM with "growpart" and "xfs_growfs" commands.
Problem is, I made a mistake...
The Proxmox host physical disk is 1 Tb...
Hello.
I'd like to propose some humble yet positive addition to Proxmox init script.
However I reached a point where I can no longer test and need some help, if possible.
Background:
I'm trying to boot and install from ISO located in another partition.
Somehow I managed Grub boot parameters...
1) I already edited post there, to see if it sounds more Proxmox related
2) My last thread was this one.
Oh, it got posted before the other one for some reason...
Hello.
To staff members (if anyone reads this of course).
By analyzing my previous threads I do realize I have not been exactly an example user.
After a while, I tried coming back once more with different, hopefully shorter questions. Thing is, they keep being ignored, and for some strange...
