Hi all, Have the backup server working, but one thing which seems odd, the amount of memory it's using while there is no running tasks. the server has 32gb in total and it's using 16.82gb. It seems high to me with no jobs running. Rebooted and memory was around 1-2Gb (would need to reboot...

Hi All, Coming from 20 years as a professional in Windows (2 years of hands-on Linux) I'm having issues with fully grasping cgroups. I recently upgraded my server cluster and am I encountering OOM kills regularly (a few times per day). I have a single cgroup (just out-of-the-box config). My...

Hi, We had recently a node that restarted suddenly without any warnings. The machine was running pretty capped RAM wise. I downloaded the logs from the node in question but i don't see any trace in them. all i see is the start phase, nothing interesting before Can you lead me to a log file...

Hi, I have some Ubuntu 22.04 VMs with qemu-guest agent installed and I've notice that the memory usage shown in the GUI is completely different from memory stats within the Ubuntu guest OS. Is it a problem of the guest agent? Does it computes memory usage as (used+buff/cache)/total instead of...

Saw a mini PC with a Ryzen 7 3700U. I know that this processor is outdated, may this device consider small power consumption but big processing power? My main purpose is to install OpenWRT on the Proxmox as a Internet router. May simply learn docker, container and linux, use the virtual machine...

Hi I imagine some VPS hosting companies have ways to sell more memory than their servers actually have. How do they do this? Any advice for making the most of your server memory? A few ideas so far: * Use containers rather than VMs - pretty obvious * Make sure KSM (Kernel Samepage Merging) is...

Hi, I have deployed a Win10 Vm on a 64 GB Ram node and have allocated it 32 gb. After installing the Balloon Drivers the VM shows correct memory usage but the node summary still shows the incorrect usage , no zfs used and cache/buffer is at 3700k only. I have tried old virtio drivers too . How...

I have this weird issue where all of the VMs that I run, do not get the allocated amount of memory. When rebooting the VM, the correct amount of memory is in fact available in the VM, but after a couple hours, the maximum allowed memory in the VM will be way less. The issue is resolved when I...

Hello, This had been asked several times however after extensive search there is still no real answer that would make sense or a formula that I was able to follow to assign memory - sometime it work and sometimes doesn't (guessing!) up to 48GB works fine after adding this workaround "options...

Good day all, In the process of upgrading a pve 5 cluster to pve 6 (better late than never). After the corosync upgrade to 3 with all cluster nodes still on pve 5 and online with quorum there was a netwok issue on one of the nodes. All VMs became unreachable for a minute or two and then came...
