I have a PVE cluster (2 node+q-device).
On that cluster i run a VM that has an interface passed trough (via pci-passthrough). So far that is working well.

Now, to enable live migration for that vm I can't use pci-passthrough, if i understand correctly. The main issue is, that the interface has to be completely inactive while the VM is not running on the host.
So i want a physical port on each machine that is reserved only for this VM.

Any idea if that is possible in Proxmox VE?
