It should work on top of proxmox 3.3 (Don't have tested).

To be sure, make a copy of your current deb (/var/cache/apt/archives) , if you want to rollback later.

Well, just test if you observe your previous performance problems.

Maybe a memory benchmark could provide some interesting results. (not sure which tools is best for this on windows)

Hi Alexandre 

OOOooo ...Many thanks for do the patches!!!!,

Moreover, i would like to tell you two things: 
1) I have these packages installed in my two servers (configured in HA and 
both are equals in software and hardware) 
pveversion -v 
proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 3.3-139 (running kernel: 3.10.0-5-pve) 
pve-manager: 3.3-5 (running version: 3.3-5/bfebec03) 
pve-kernel-3.10.0-5-pve: 3.10.0-19 
lvm2: 2.02.98-pve4 
clvm: 2.02.98-pve4 
corosync-pve: 1.4.7-1 
openais-pve: 1.1.4-3 
libqb0: 0.11.1-2

Hi, 
can you test this: 

http://odisoweb1.odiso.net/pve-qemu-kvm_2.2-2_amd64.deb 
http://odisoweb1.odiso.net/qemu-server_3.3-5_amd64.deb 


then edit your vm config file: 


sockets: 2 
cores: 4 
memory: 262144 
numa0: memory=131072,policy=bind 
numa1: memory=131072,policy=bind 


(you need 1 numa by socket, total numa memory must be equal to vm memory). 

you can change cores number if you want. 


and start the vm ?

Hi, 

some news. 

It's seem that current proxmox qemu build don't have numa support enable. 

So, previous command line don't work. 


I'll send a patch for pve-qemu-kvm and also to add numa options to vm config 
file.

About the command line, each vm is a kvm process. 

So start your vm with current config, do a "ps -aux" , copy the big "kvm -id 
... " command line for your vm, 

stop the vm. 

then, 

add my specials lines about numa, 

and paste the command line to start the vm ! 


(kvm is so simple ;)
