Hi all, we just moved again a bunch of packages to our pvetest repository (on the road to Proxmox VE 2.3), including latest stable QEMU 1.4 and the GUI support for storing KVM VM disks on a Ceph RADOS Block Device (RBD) storage system.
Due to the new Backup and Restore implementation, KVM live backups of running virtual machines on Ceph RBD is no problem anymore - a quite unique feature and a big step forward. Other small improvements and changes: - qcow2 as default storage format, cache=none (previously raw) - KVM64 as default CPU type (previously qemu64) -e1000 as default NIC (previously rtl8139) - added omping to repo (for testing multicast between nodes) - task history per VM - enable/disable tablet for VM on GUI without stop/start of VM (you can use vmmouse instead, for lower CPU usage, works on modern Linux and on all Windows VMs as long as you install the vmmouse drivers) - Node Summary: added "KSM sharing" and "CPU Socket count" Everybody is encouraged to test and give feedback! __________________ Best regards, Martin Maurer Proxmox VE project leader _______________________________________________ pve-user mailing list [email protected] http://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-user
