Hello,
in our company we are using Proxmox 4.2 and we found out, that always when we restart the pve-manager service, all VMs on the same node are stopping and restarting.
Independend of any kernel update, this action happens also while installing proxmox package updates.
To prevent restarting all VMs, we have to hold back all Proxmox updates to install important linux security updates on our productive system.
In a commercial, productive environment it is not acceptable to restart all VMs to install software updates.
On a big node (with dualsocket cpus e.g. E5-2690v2 or E5-2640v4) with 40-80 VMs the system needs about 1 hour until all client VMs are booted completly, KSM Sharing is working and the load normalized.
Is there a way to disable the automatic VM restart while installing package updates?
Thank in advance!
