#ProxmoxVE 9.0 has been released (#Proxmox / #VirtualEnvironment / #Virtualization / #VirtualMachine / #VM / #Linux / #Debian / #Trixie / #DebianTrixie / #QEMU / #LXC / #KVM / #ZFS / #OpenZFS / #Ceph) https://proxmox.com/
For anyone still using or considering the free #oVirt as virtualization management platform:
Please don't. It is a broken nightmare on community life support.
After #RedHat has ended support for its commercial spin Red Hat Virtualization (RHV) last year the development of oVirt practically came to a halt.
There hasn't been an official stable release for over a year despite security issues, and numerous bugs. The official recommendation is to use nightly releases to get the latest fixes. Too bad you won't be able to roll back via DNF if an update fails because older nightly releases are gone from the repo.
And yes, nightly releases do break oVirt at times. The latest nightly causes updates to fail because of incomplete dependency changes.
The web interface of the official mailing list is offline most of the time, the documentation is a confusing and outdated mess.
Upgrades to newer Linux distribution releases such as RHEL 9 or even 10 based systems are extremely painful and not officially supported.
Move your VMs to #ProxmoxVE or any other actively maintained KVM based solution.
Und zack, da ist schon die offizielle Veröffentlichung von #ProxmoxVE9 auf Basis von #Debian13: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/proxmox-virtual-environment-9-0-released.169257/
Natürlich gibt es tonnenweise Änderungen, u.a. ein aufgefrischtes Mobile-UI: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Roadmap#Proxmox_VE_9.0
Ein Upgrade von 8.4 soll nahtlos klappen.
""This blog post introduces the concept of CPU hotplugging (and hot-unplugging) in a virtualized environment, and includes high level coverage of some of the key mechanisms involved. The focus is on #QEMU and #KVM, primarily with a #Linux guest, but general concepts are applicable to most other virtualization environments.""

How would you enable #clipboard sharing from a physical remote IP KVM (like #JetKVM) to the local device?
Specifically: how can clipboard content (like copied text) from the remote machine be transferred back to your local system while using the KVM?
I've finally had time to play some more with the @jetkvm
Gee, that is a cool tool! And it works very well, even over a VPN connection. For simplicity in my setup, I just allowed my VPN client to have access to all ports on the JetKVM device.
@librewolf has issues with the WebRTC streams. But works fine with Ungoogled Chromium.
The virtual media functionality is definitely going to be a very nice rescue tool, if the host doesn't boot up - getting into some rescue image will definitely be handy.
And for this kind of remote "backdoor" when a host doesn't respond - this is definitely performant enough.
This device is definitely worth the price!
Pssssst - ProxLB 1.1.5 for your Proxmox Clusters has been released!
Just one small new feature:
* You can now use custom ports for the API request
This becomes handy when using additional/external load balancers on different ports than tcp/8006. Have fun :)
I just received my @jetkvm ! I’m 6 years old and it’s Christmas!
I’m supposed to get my JetKVM tomorrow at long last!
I haven’t been this excited about receiving a new toy since I was 10 years old 
Vermutlich ein Long-Shot, aber ich versuche es trotzdem:
Kennt sich hier jemand ein bisschen mit KVM Switches aus und kann mir einen für 2 Monitore + USB-Devices an 2 PCs empfehlen?
(Edit/Addendum: Ich will keine Monitore tauschen, Monitore mit integriertem KVM sind daher keine Option)
Ich weiß, dass Level1Techs eigene baut, die sind aber ziemlich teuer und dann kommt Zoll noch drauf:

Ich hab auch andere gefunden, aber die kommen mit eher scammy vor. Dieser Onlineshop z.B. der kein Impressum hat und in Wahrheit (anscheinend) aus China versendet?

Alternatives to #selfhosted #nextcloud talk?
Been looking for a chat & video chat self hosted option. Would like Android and iOS client.
Besides nextcloud talk, Jitsi-Meet, is that really all that's out there.
Doesn't need to be open sourced, just self hostable.
#homeserver #linux #docker #kvm #podman
Don't care if it's a container image or not. If I can host it, I can wrap it up in a suitable technology.
Anyone got #jetkvm working on #tailscale so you can use the machine to which the #kvm is attached from outside your local area home #lan network? i.e. when on the road. I am nearly there but get connection failure every time.

Here's the customary #introduction: i'm into #C and tolerate C++ on a daily basis at work, i've also used others like java, kotlin, python, PHP, etc and am curious about #COBOL, #AdaLanguage and #erlang.
My dislike of jenkins is only surpassed by my hate of githubactions and everything MS-related. AI is not I, only A. I'm interested in #selfhosted stuff but atm that's a VPS with some sites, which doesn't really count. For now #syncthing is quite useful and #wireguard is on the horizon once i reformat/reinstall my current #gentoo (i'll keep the root #ZFS aproach and am on the fence regarding #XFCE or #KDE), would be interesting to have a barebones #KVM/#QEMU running all the stuff and i digress.

#kvm This #glinet product is available here https://amzn.eu/d/6d2x2sj
and loosely reviewed here https://youtu.be/L_P1d89U8sc
but the comments to the video are super suspicious of the way it works and whether your computer can be hacked by their app. Not sure if open source, but seems to be, nor sure if it can run on linux. A comparison with #jetkvm would be interesting.

As you can see in the screen cap the project has grown beyond just a one-man show
It is vital to understand that the project would not have been scaled in this manner & at this logarithmic rate, had it not been for important partners, who due to the power of the FediVerse, were quickly introduced to the project
Did not only gave words of interest they actually contributed with giving server space to boxyBSD.
Reed the Alt text voor more information
Please read the screen cap closely and also read the Alt text & realize how much boxyBSD has blown up
600 plus VMS!!!
An insightful article was written by @gyptazy
If this is of your interest, and you take the time to read, analyze between the lines what has been said, you will learn a lot from this
If you are passionate about Proxmox like I am, you will love to read these kind of posts, because they've been systematically, logically and relatively simply formulated, so that it's digestible for the end user of proxmox all the way up to the diehard programmer who hacks in Proxmox code
