Proxmox VE 1.9 released!

[abkrim]

Once again is a typical problem Proxmox updates.

Simply searching Google, I found the solution.:

Remove vzmon form vz init file to not try to load this module.

Once again is a typical problem Proxmox updates.

I can't see why this is typical? We never get that error here. Is there any hint in 'dmesg' why that module cant be loaded?

Did you ever find out what was wrong? I have the same issue on two hosts I recently upgraded to 1.9.

host1:

Both hosts have CentOS/RHEL guests.

A third host that I haven't updated yet and is running 2.6.35 kernel also with CentOS/RHEL guests has 280,000 shared pages.

Please advise.

Thanks!

Hi,

this thread helped me:

http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/5041-KSM-with-2-6-35

I took the ksmtuned.conf from the OP.
Of course you could change some values (e.g. KSM_THRES_COEF)as it befits you best.

Typical is something that happens so often that it is normal.

No offense like you always do, but Proxmox, is famous forupdates "no problems" ... just read the post on this forumand others.

And always offends you.

I have had issues since I upgraded to 1.9/2.6.32-6-pve from 2.6.32-4-pve. I have two CanIT spam filter VM's that have locked up hourly since upgrading last night with crazy high loads on CPU. I tried dedicating more cores to the KVM's with no change. I'm going to reboot this host after replacing the kernel and see if that fixes the issue. It's been a long day of babysitting these two KVM's.
