Hello.
I'd like to run a FreeBSD 11.3 VM under FreeBSD 12.1.
As I'm already using vm-bhyve to run a Windows guest, I think the best (or
possibly only) choice is to use bhyve for the FreeBSD guest too.
I've got the following conf file:
> guest="freebsd"
> loader="bhyveload"
> cpu=1
> memory=512M
Hello,
Is there a reason why the resident memory used by a bhyve guest is quite
different when comparing ps/top & bhyvectl?
Does bhyvectl take in account something in kernel space that top/ps doesn't see?

Hello,
I've recently got hold of some Dell C6220 systems (2 servers in a single
chassis) while I was hoping to use for bhyve
The basic spec of a single server is as follows -
Xeon(R) CPU E5-2670 (VT-x: PAT,HLT,MTF,PAUSE,EPT,UG,VPID)
64GB DDR3
LSI MegaRaid 9265-8i
FreeBSD 12.1

I find this distinction between volumes/files/etc and what is cached causes
confusion (as well as "volumes not datasets").
Both ZVOLs and Z file systems are types of dataset. A dataset

I believe you should also be able to use the 11 beta.

As I understand it
1) shutdown from guest
2) 'kill ' -> pressing the power button once.
3) --force-poweroff -> holding power button in
4) --force-reset -> pressing the reset button
5) bhyvectl --destroy -> same as 3? (although vmm is destroyed as well)
1 or 2 are obviously preferred. I've found h

Hello,
For anyone interested I have submitted a PR to update the version of vm-bhyve
in the ports tree.
Primarily this fixes the off-putting, but completely benign error printed when
users run 'vm init' (the very first thing to run...)
I've no idea if I've got the diff format right though.
