Did a few searches and didn't find anything. Wondering if anyone has tried running Windows 11 22H2 on Proxmox yet?

My current single-GPU passthrough setup has been working extremely well for months now and the last thing I want to do is introduce any instability.

So, any cautionary tales to share? Or do I upgrade with reckless abandon?
 
When you are scared of instability, create a new VM for testing purposes and install Win 11 22H2 on there. It's easier for your personally, because you dont know what we tried and what we use such a vm for
 
Don't see the problem. I always create backups before upgrading my VMs. If something isn`t working well I could always restore the VM from backups.
So I would suggest you just try it and restore a backup if it isn't stable.

Points taken... This particular VM uses a dedicated NVME. Restoring from backup is somewhat more painful as a result.

Just wondering if anyone had direct experience to share.
 
I also backup my physical disks to PBS using the proxmox-backup-client. Or dd could be used in case you don't got a PBS running. So backing up a NVMe would work too. But your right, would be more complex/work to do a restore.
