    QEMU - Can we Add emulated NVME Devices to Guests?

    My servers all run HGST260 enterprise PCIe NVMe drives, mirrored. The drives have great performance, but my guests seem to be limited by queue depth. Are we able to use emulated NVMe devices to increase the parallelization of disk IO, and would this help relative to the standard SCSI devices? I...

    My 1TB nvme is installed into an nvme pcie adapter (these can be bought for like $10) First you simply install proxmox to the NVME, this is straight forward just like installing to a hard drive, the problem comes in to play when you try booting from the NVME, older bios do not support that...

    Threadripper Proxmox build, need suggestions

    [cross posted on STH] I work in a research lab that we recently purchased a Threadripper 3970x workstation from a System Integrator. It is a better better deal than Dell-Intel, which would have cost us twice as much. The role is to run Proxmox as base Hypervisor and run multiple Windows and...

    Intel P3600 NVME SSD Passthrough - Poor Performance

    I am passing through an Intel P3600 1.6TB NVME SSD to a fresh install of Ubuntu 19.10 VM. Using Q35 Machine code, 44 cores, 48GB of RAM and the performance is terrible, maxing out around 1000 MB/s but averaging 450 MB/s. It has been previously connected, through passthrough, on an Dell R710...

    Does Proxmox need fast storage?

    Hi, I have a simple question which I would like to share with because I’m interested in you point of view. On a Proxmox server I have fast storage (SSDs or NVMe) and slow storage (SAS or SATA). My fast choice could be to install Proxmox on fast storage and use it also for storing virtual...

    ZFS on storage only

    Hi guys, I am absolutely new to Proxmox and also have never installed/configured a virtualisation server for hosting several VMs. So, I heard and thought, Proxmox seems a good idea for that, especially, as I like Debian a lot. The system will be: Ryzen 7 3700X, 32 GB RAM, Gigabyte Mainboard, 1...

    I have 32GB of RAM and 12 Xeon cores. All the containers I will launch will be the same version of Ubuntu. On top of that, some of the containers will be running identical applications with nearly identical data. Because of deduplication, I think I could squeeze a lot more data onto the local...
