Hi to all!
I have a problem with Win 2003 x64 SP2 guest os on proxmox 2.1
My server configuration is Intel S5000PSL, 2xIntel Xeon e5345 CPU's, 16 Gb DDR2 Ram
I have two VM's with win 2003 x64 - one with the virtio network adapter (also i used intel e1000 - nothing changed - it continues to fall in BSOD), and second with rtl8139
The first VM just fall in BSOD sometimes - interval between BSOD's changes from 3 hours to 6 days.WinDbg says, that BSOD caused by afd.sys driver.
The second VM periodically lose the connection to the outside - i can't disable/enable the adapter and need to reboot vm.
output of pveversion for additional information:
Code:
root@vsvr:~# pveversion -v

What i can do to stop this?
 
BSOD can have multiple reasons. as I wrote, looks not virtio related.
 
And another BSOD - caused by afd.sys again.
And, also, it's not problem of virtio drivers - it's problem of proxmox or one of components, which it uses - because of on Virtualbox with these drivers nothing happen - system have uptime > 3 days.
*Any variants to solve problem or i need to go to Virtualbox o sm else?

Hi,I'm using a lot of win2003 sp2 x64 vms without any problem.
can you post your vm config ?

cat /etc/pve/qemu-server/XXX.conf


Code:
root@vsvr:~# cat /etc/pve/qemu-server/100.conf
bootdisk: virtio0
cores: 4
ide0: local:100/disk1.raw,cache=writeback
ide1: local:100/disk2.raw,cache=writeback
ide2: none,media=cdrom
memory: 8192
name: rfserv
net0: virtio=00:50:70:02:32:76,bridge=vmbr0
onboot: 1
ostype: wxp
sockets: 1
root@vsvr:~#


*I used those values, and have crashes, now i uses another values (smaller than those) and OS still crashing
*Yes, i already install this update and i had a BSOD after 2 hours of work after installation of this update
*
 
did you have tried with writethrough or direcysync for you disk ?
No, I used only no cache and writeback configuration.Also, i don't think that source of these problem lies in disk-cache params because of it's don't crashes on rtl8169 (on this card network fail to works after 1-2 days)
 
Hello,

I found this thread by accident while googling. I am the maintainer of virtio-win drivers (https://github.com/YanVugenfirer/kvm-guest-drivers-windows) and although those crashes doesn't seams to be virtio-win specific would like to look at the dump files anyway.

Can you send me minidumps to yvugenfi (at) redhat.com or the location of full zipped dumps ?

Thanks,
Yan Vugenfirer.

Thank Yan, you can also keep me in touch (aderumier@odiso.com), if we need to add some patches to proxmox.
