TASK ERROR: total memory for NUMA nodes must be equal to vm static memory

[ola]

Hi!

I can not manage to get my VM started after setting the numa command in the vm config.


vm.conf
balloon: 0
bios: ovmf
boot: dcn
bootdisk: virtio0
cores: 8
cpu: host
efidisk0: System-Drives2:vm-110-disk-0,size=4M
hostpci0: 04:00,pcie=1,x-vga=1
hotplug: disk,network,usb,memory,cpu
ide2: none,media=cdrom
keyboard: sv
machine: q35
memory: 16384
name: X
net0: virtio=00:15:XX:XX:XX:XX,bridge=vmbr0
numa: 1
numa0: cpus=0-7,hostnodes=0,policy=bind,memory=16384
ostype: win10
scsihw: virtio-scsi-pci
smbios1: uuid=99e81ea0-5b56-XX-XX-XX
sockets: 1
startup: up=120
vga: none
virtio0: System-Drives2:vm-110-disk-1,size=500G

If i change to memory=16384M is will start but it will not stick to Numa node 0, it will use random core.

Anyone have an idea?

faced the same problem. i wonder if it's because PVE uses GiB to alocate memory and KVM uses GB
