Hello everyone, I'm quite new to Proxmox and I'm experiencing a huge issue with Freebsd 13 guests: OS only sees 1Gb of RAM, regardless the allocated amount. I already tried without any success disabling memory ballooning. I'm currently running PVE 8.0.3.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
 
Did you enable memory hotplug for the VM? Then only the first GB is available until the operating system inside the VM activated the rest, which it might not do unless you enable it explicitly inside the VM. Please double check that Memory Hotplug is disable from the VM or share the VM configuration file (qm config ).

Thank you! Disabling memory hotplug solved the issue.
