How can I suppress these warnings?

[jholzer]

I am a new proxmox user thanks to Broadcom. Unfortunately I've been pulling what little hair I have left out over these stupid "unhandled WRMSR" warnings. I keep seeing references to put <echo "options kvm ignore_msrs=1 report_ignored_msrs=0"> into kvm.conf, but I can't find that file anywhere. Would some kind soul out there please clue me in? So far with my experience trying to learn proxmox, vmware doesn't have anything to worry about

quick google search for "proxmox unhandled WRMSR" leads to https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/wrmsr-messages-on-proxmox-8-1.138145/

Only to add that if that file does not exist, then the command referenced in the thread above will create it. And if it exists, it will overwrite it, so if one had it customized before, the command needs to be modified. However, it doesnt sound like you are in the latter group.

I do have some experience with Linux, but all it would have taken on that post would be "run this command" to make it clear. "Bash" should have tipped me off. Thanks.

For anyone reading this in the future, I can confirm that this procedure did suppress the warning messages on the console screen. I don't know what impact ignoring these errors, apparently associated with unimplemented instructions in the VCPU, will have on the performance or stability of this server.
