    EU [WTB] 16 port HBA

    So, I pulled the trigger on a new mobo to move from narrow-ILM and will lose some pci-slots. So, need a 16 port HBA instead of my two 8 port ones now. SFF8087 would be preferred since I have those cables but if you have a card + cables I'd be interested. Shipping to Sweden!

    Anyone routing intra VLANs on Proxmox? Right now I'm doing all my routing in the firewall, but seems kinda silly. OVS is a totally new area for me, so I'd really like to see some working configuration.

    Proxmox ZFS RAM reservation/config

    Fiddeling with my Proxmox host and I'm not really "happy" with the amount of RAM ZFS is using. I'm hoping that it would eat up much more by default - and I think I remember it did before(on other platforms?). The default setting is to limit ZFS to 50% of the RAM available, but the min size is...

    A1SAI-C2750 - SATA drives not present on boot after I plug in Intel X520-DA2

    I have a strange issue where my server will boot directly into UEFI when I plug in a 10G NIC (X520). The boot drive (SATA0) is just not present in BIOS or anything.
