Hello all, I’m new around here and new to Proxmox. Fantastic work by all those involved, keep it up! I have been scouring the Internet and in particular this forum and the Proxmox subreddit, but cannot find a definitive answer on how or if PCIe passthrough works on the HP Gen8 MicroServer. I have gone through the guide on the
wiki (which is now out of date), I have tried blacklisting drivers, patching the kernel, pretty much everything that I have found suggested, so I was wondering if anyone has got this to work, and if so, how they did it. Notable specs are as follows: HP MicroServer Gen8 16GB EEC RAM Intel Xeon E3-1265Lv2 LSI 9211-4i HBA (IT mode) I am running the latest version of Proxmox 6.2 and have patched the kernel following
this guide. I should point out that I am fairly new to Linux/command line, and also that Proxmox works fine without the passthrough, and the disks work fine in any other OS (but not tried any other hypervisor). If anything technical is worth a try please list the steps (ELI5) rather than just stating what needs to be done as I may not know how to do it. I understand Xeon E3 has poor isolation capabilities but if this has worked in the past it should be able to work again. Most threads I have seen where others have said they got it working have been on older versions of Proxmox. If there are no solutions then an option might be to downgrade the kernel or use an older version but I would ideally prefer to not do that. Let’s try to get a [SOLVED] thread for everyone else to refer to, as I have seen many others are having issues with this and a lot of threads seem to get abandoned without an answer.
