My setup is:
So clearly, I have a 1 gbit/s network card
This morning there was a race condition on one of the VMs running LAMP and ClamAV which meant it RAM quickly got depleted, then it's swap file, and from then it went into a no response memory race condition. Impossible to access SSH etc. I had to force stop the VM.
On the host, I see this:
On the VM with the race condition, I see this:
So far everything is normal and I am not complaining. 99.9% of the time this solution works really well.
But here is my question:
Shouldn't the Proxmox VE host network connections to the virtual machines be "unlimited"? Or something more sane, like 10 gbit/s instead of 1 gbit/s? Surely this is "virtual"?
- A Proxmox VE host server with 1000Mb/s physical network card
- An ZFS over iSCSI link to a virtual machine on the same host which is running TrueNAS Core. Virtio.
- Numerous VMs all sharing the same NAS, mostly Debian derivatives. All Virtio
