Anyone ever got the turbo speed to be triggered? I've done various tests to trigger it on PVE, no luck so far with turbostat and just watching /proc/cpuinfo. Also got a Windows guest running, it seems to cap at 2.69Ghz. current CPU frequency: 2.70 GHz (asserted by call to hardware) boost state...

Taking the Proxmox plunge soon and looking at the admin doc but, it does not state the space requirements for the Proxmox OS. What is recommended amount of space that I need where I am not going to run out of space on new kernels, upgrades, logs etc... but still keep to a minimum for a SATA dom...

Hi all, I'm considering setting up a Proxmox server, but I'm lost in the sea of possibilities ;) Maybe someone here has set up a similar system and could offer some advice... What I'm looking to build is primarily a file server, with some containers or VMs (internal webservers, databases with...

Proxmox VE Seems to have added this fairly recently I had a Proxmox VE 5.2 node that I did a dist-upgrade -y on for a new install. I looked at an older Proxmox VE 5.2 machine and it was not there. Datacenter-> Node -> Disks and it now has various storage creation options. One of them is ZFS...

Hello, We have a seperate Ceph cluster and Proxmox Cluster (seperate server nodes), i want to know if the performance we get is normal or not, my thought was that the performance could be way better with the hardware we are using. So is there any way we can improve with configuration changes...

I'm relatively new to Proxmox and I'm looking for insight on proper setup of Proxmox networking. It seems there are various networks that need to be considered. Admin (gui/ssh), cluster (corosync), storage, migration/replication, external network for guest VM's, and maybe more I'm missing. What...

Hello everyone, I have discovered this forum just a few days ago, but are already blown away by the knowledge and kindness here :) I am currently running Proxmox on an i5-4440 with 32GB non-ECC RAM with ZFS [4x 2TB-WD-RED in striped mittor (each mirror consists of 2 WD-RED) and a mirrored 250...

Hi I was wondering if any experts could tell me what I was doing wrong? Note: I am aware that passthrough is an experimental feature in Proxmox VE and that some purist will not like the FREENAS running in a VM. But trying to make a all in one test system ala Patrick. Following this I managed...

Hi All I have a client who is buying a 1U single socket Supermicro server with an Epyc 7351P 16 Core processor. The application is as a small Proxmox host, running Debian VM instances for clients. The intention is to run about 40 VM's at 128GB of RAM (32GB modules), but retaining the option...

Hello STH forum, I have a question about running Windows on Proxmox because this is giving me a bad time so far. I'm asking here at STH first because it seems to me there is more technical knowledge on STH than on the Proxmox forums. Some relevant specs of the box I'm running this on: Intel...

Hi there - I'm using an LSI SAS9211-8I to pass through two disks via Windows Server 2016 to Proxmox (old identical 500GB drives - I'm new to Proxmox and I'm testing things out before I start importing production data) and I'm having a difficult time getting SMART data from the drives. I used...

I am planning a Proxmox/Ceph installation and would appreciate some advice on performance aspects of such a system. My question seems to concern Ceph but that will be installed within the context of Proxmox usage. My goals are to have "many" servers (at least by SMB standards) running...

Hi, I was wondering if someone else has had this issue before? Been trying to backup the Vm but after 1 hour it starts backing up but on the log shows Not sure if its because it FreeBSD running pfSense 2.3.5 because tried and i would get () Task viewer: Backup Output Status Stop INFO...

Hi everyone! I am looking for an affordable Proxmox home server; do you have any suggestions? Currently, I am running mainly two VMs: a pfSense and a FreeNAS. PfSense acts as firewall between LAN and modem, while FreeNAS acts as home NAS by handling 2x6TB passed-through hard-disks in mirroring...

Hi! We just got two new DELL servers in the office with the following specs: - 2TB Disk Space (using RAID 5) - 192GB RAM - 2x 8 code Intel CPUs each (32 cores each) And we're now discussing which virtualisation solution would be the best to host multiple different environments (a kubernetes...

OK , before anyone starts "This is crazy" rant here here me out. I know this is not what it was designed to do. but just want to get some feedback on possibility. From everything I have read so far, it seams that it is theoretically possible to setup Ceph on a single node, and still have the...

Confirming that the Proxmox VE 5.0 image (PV 4.10.17-19 kernel) does work out of the box with the Intel X553 / X557 NICs from the Intel Atom C3000 series codenamed Denverton:

Now that Proxmox 5 is out and live, I figured I'd build a test cluster on my lab environment to see if it is any easier/better than my previous attempts. I have run into a snag though. According to the Proxmox documentation, the preferred environment for clustering includes multicast for the...
