Helo all my friend's,


Can someone tell me what is the difference raw format,qcow2 format and vmdk format. what we considerations in choosing image format? What's more suitable for server production (Server High branded)?

What we considerations in choosing disk type IDE,SCSI disk and virtio?

How can I backup kvm on proxmox with live migration?

Thanks in advance:)

use raw. for best performance, consider using block devices (lvm) directly instead of disk images.

backup with the integrated gui (uses vzdump). if you want live migration with KVM, you need to store your VM data on NAS/SAN or DRBD.
