[PVE-User] Question

[Venefax]

If you had a yearly support contract with unlimited questions, like Red Hat,
Suse and Canonical have, I would ask my boss to buy the subscription. This

If you duplicate VM´s with vzdump (backup/restore), make sure that you have

(MACs are saved in  /etc/qemu-server/VMID.conf)
