My name is Jeremy (Yiru for most people online). I would like to get advise on the following. I want to run the following on it. SQL (with Redis as cache). Minecraft servers (I am making a little network around max 100 people so far). Virtual machines. webserver using nginx/apache2. maybe some other things in the future. 2 idea's I had so far. 1 or 2 servers. (6 cores/server minimum for 2 | 8 minimum if 1 server) using multiple blade servers in an enclosure. What I want advise on. I want advise on what the best option would be. If there are better options I also would like to know. Budget. I could spent a max of 2000 euro on it. I would like it to be not 2000 if possible. (I will keep an open mind on budget if needed) Where to buy. I live in the Netherlands. But cant seem to find good places to buy from. I would love to know if people have good links to those if possible. Software is not an issue. I already have that covered. If any questions just ask. I would love to answer them. Thanks in advance. -Jeremy (Yiru)

Hello, I recently changed my motherboard and i want to reinstall my OS, but I am amateur in Virtual Machines and I want to learn more about them and I want some usefulness with it. How do I convert physical system into VM in VirtualBox? I tried Disk2vhd, it is on official Microsoft page so i wanted to try it, as VirtualBox uses VHD, but for some reason VirtualBox can't launch that VM and says that it failed. I tried on my additional, now external M.2 SSD that I got with older instaltion of Win10, but it didn't work, for clarification, i only selected the F:\ without any additional volumes. I'd rather stay with Virtualbox but i'm not sure how to do this and if i should switch to VMware or just their conversion software. And for second part of my title, how do I do it in reverse? Do I use something like Macrum on VM to make image of the system, and then i copy it to the drive where i want OS installed? I'm sorry for my writing, English is not my primary language. Any help would be aprecieted

Now I'm making progress, finally got PFsense working. So what I'm trying to do is make a type of sandbox, a testing environment that doesn't communicate to the outside world, but can still get to the internet, if that makes sense. So is this IP configuration correct in the image below? I have the pfsense WAN set up as a bridged adapter, while the Windows VM adapter is set up as "internal network". The one on the left is the Windows 10 VM.

Budget (including currency): ~AU$500 Country: Australia Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Plex, (Linux) VM's, NAS Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Hi all, this one is a little complicated and not 1 build per say... in short: I want a little more power in my NAS, and add a second SFF machine to my setup (HTPC). I currently have an unraid NAS running on: Pentium G5400, Gigabyte B365M HD3, 16Gb RAM, Quadro P600, Corsair RM550x, LSI HBA running a 7 drive array. There are two parity drives. The NAS runs a fairly typical array of docker containers for downloads, file sync, and media server duties. Most of the time, this processor is enough for my needs. The processor seems to be a bottleneck during times such as disk preclearing, parity checks, and when transcoding more than 1 video - all threads get pinned to 100%, or near 100% usage for more than a few seconds, and file access slows down, even on the cache pool. Also, I can't run transcodes (even on GPU) and something like a parity check simultaneously. I'm also keen on playing around with some virtual machines on my unraid server, mostly just for fun/curiosity. I'm sure that my transcodes (Plex and Tdarr) are using the GPU, so any CPU use is just unavoidable overhead. My plan is to upgrade the CPU to something efficient, but has more cores/performance than the G5400. At the same time, I've been thinking about adding a SFF HTPC to our living room. So I've been eyeing some refurbished Dell Optiplex 7060s that happen to contain an i5-8500T - these are priced around $500 or so, which is as much as I would be willing to spend on this project at this point. They also happen to be nice and small, which wins mega points with the rest of the house. So the idea is to get one of these Optiplex 7060's, and swap the i5-8500T with my Pentium G5400 in the NAS. The NAS will be upgraded to an i5-8500T, and the Optiplex will be downgraded to a Pentium G5400. We won't be gaming on the HTPC, just Plex/Netflix etc. some web browsing, using the included Windows 10 Pro license for now. Is this a wise move? Would this be possible on the Optiplex? These chips should be of the same generation, use the same socket, and are compatible with the same chipsets? Feedback is appreciated. Thanks! P.S. There are various models of 7060's so the i5-8500T may end up being an i5-8500 non-T version, depending on availability.

So I have this one Windows Server (Hardware is listed below) that does a TON of things, game servers, HFS servers, SMB, mining, more Windows VMs, probably more things. I am looking for a way to move a lot of these things to different VMs (mainly because HFS needs to be set up manually every time as it uses the registry to save settings and I have 2 instances of HFS running (one for HTTPS and one for HTTP video previews). Also because I would like the ability to reboot windows VMs for updates without taking out everything running on them and the Hyper-V VMs tend to break (especially the port forwarding to virtual NICs). The hardware is a Poweredge R720 with: Dual E5-2667v2 120GB RAM 15 1TB SAS HDDS in raid (I think 60) 1 160GB 2.5" SATA SSD Dual Tesla M40s My plan was to use Proxmox with VMs for separate things (It ended up being 8 VMs, that parts not really important.) What is important is where to store the VMs. Ideally I want these to be in RAID 1 so in the event of an SSD failure I don't lose all of the info relating to the VMs and Windows installs. Storage Issue: Problem is I only have 16 bays which are all in use, thought about moving to a r720XD but it doesn't fit 2 full height 2 slot GPUs. There are a few solutions I thought of. I just need someone who is more experienced with Proxmox or other solutions that would be better to say if this will work at all.... I could get a 2.5" SATA to dual M.2 enclosure and get 2 SATA M.2 SSDs, this would replace my 120GB SSD in the 16th bay. I would have to buy both the adapter and 2 512GB SATA M.2 drives. Or I could get cheap PCIe to M.2 carrier boards and 2 NVMe SSDs (I have 3 half heigh PCIe slots open). Problem with this afaik R720 can't boot off of NVMe so Proxmox would be installed on the SATA SSD and just use the NVMe drives as VM storage. This would probably be cheaper because I already have 2 512GB NVMe SSDs in my laptop, I could just get a 256GB one to use in that and steal the 512GB drives (I barely use the OS drives on my machines). Problem is if the SATA SSD fails technically none of the data is gone however the proxmox install would be. I thought about only storing proxmox on the SATA SSD and storing VMs on the RAID however the RAID is NTFS so I assume I would need to format it for proxmox to be able to use it for VM storage, which is a problem as I don't have anywhere to put the 8TB of data that's on the RAID... And proxmox still wouldn't be saved in the event of an SSD failure. Passing Entire RAID through to VM? Another problem I might run into is Proxmox's handling of the RAID, it's a hardware RAID on the card built into the R720. Would I be able to pass this in it's entirety through to a Windows VM? VM Plan VM1: Windows 10 LTSC, 2 Threads, 8GB RAM, 32GB Storage HTTPS HFS Sync Serice VM2: Windows 10 LTSC, 2 Threads, 8GB RAM, 32GB Storage HTTP HFS Other long term services VM3: Windows Server 2022, 8 Threads, 32GB RAM, 128GB Storage My Game Servers and other services SMB VM4: NHOS, 2 Threads, 4GB RAM, 16GB Storage, Both Tesla M40s Mining (for now, when profits die I'll probably use these cards for game streaming VMs or something else) VM5-8: Windows 10 LTSC, 4 Threads, 16GB RAM, 64GB Storage These are used for friends hosting private game servers. Total: 116GB RAM (4GB Left for Proxmox Host) 30 Threads (2 Left for Proxmox Host) ~464GB allocated for VMs (Leaving ~12GB left on a formatted 512GB drive) I'm open to suggestions on what to use, I have very little experience with Linux but an not opposed to it. I'd prefer to keep the 5 VMs used for games on Windows for games whose dedicated servers only run on Windows. Also HFS does apparently work with Wine on linux so those 2 might be able to be moved to linux instead of windows.

I just got a single GPU passthrough thing working on my Manjaro system (7700K, 1080ti, Z270I Gaming Pro Carbon AC), but I’m not getting any sound. I have already enabled linger, and I set nographics_allow_host_audio to 1 in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf. When I run a normal VM without passthrough, qemu is running is my own user, as is virt-manager, as is pulseaudio. I’ve also tried adding the following to my xml, but it doesn’t solve anything: <qemu:commandline> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='ich9-intel-hda,bus=pcie.0,addr=0x1b'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='hda-micro,audiodev=hda'/> <qemu:arg value='-audiodev'/> <qemu:arg value='pa,id=hda,server=unix:/run/user/1000/pulse/native'/> </qemu:commandline> So, anyone got an idea on how to get sound working? Preferably both microphone and audio out.

Alright so I am trying to make a linux virtualbox VM, I do all of the steps that every walkthrough video does, I have tried every kind of virtual disk file, both virtual chipsets, no matter what I change I always land at a completely black screen. As for the editing options, everything I type in doesn't do anything. This is the same with hyper-v on and off. Does anyone know what to do?

I am trying to get into Virtual Machines and such, and for that I need to enable AMD-V, (hardware virtualisation). To do this, you must do it From within the BIOS. No problem, I know my way around the BIOS I restart my Computer and Spam delete (this is my Motherboards BIOS key) but instead of bringing me there, my screen stays black for a solid minute. Weird, it never takes this long to load I restart again, but to the same result. Fearing I may of broken my computer, I attempt to start it normally. This is where I notice something. For some time now ( Can't give an exact date as I only just realized) my computer never does all that boot stuff when opening. As in I don't see the msi logo for my motherboard, I don't see a windows loading screen. Just blackness, then my lock page. I tried to remove the CMOS battery and wait for the power to exit the motherboard before putting it back in - no luck I tried to Enable Virtualisation using BCDedit -bcdedit won't open, I just see a window dissapear when I run it. I'm considering a BIOS flashback, as my motherboard supports it but don't want to lose any data and am wondering if that could be dangerous My motherboard is a MSI A-PRO B450, my cpu a ryzen 2600 and gpu a 1080ti
-
I heard that the motherboard makes a huge difference when it comes to virtual machines, relating specifically to things like speed and input lag. Im going to use the MSI MPG Z390, Is this good for virtualization? It works really well with both of my graphics cards that im going to use, so before I get it, it would be really nice to know if I should get a new one before I spend my money on something that doesn't work perfectly.

Hey, I am on the verge of making a computer that can 1. Run two Virtual Machines at the same time. and 2. One will be Mac, one will be Windows 10. This project is going to be quite costly, and I need help on a few things before I get to buying parts and potentially losing money. These are the parts that I am going to use for this machine (hopefully they're all easy to understand what they're used for), its a little on the budget side, but thats because I dont want to spend all of my money, It would be great if it was <2500 USD. The way this machine is going to work is my host system Linux Manjaro is going to run MacOS and Windows10. I wish they could all be on at the same time, but I figured out that its better to just turn one (guest) on and the other (guest) off when using them. My first of many questions is How do I safely make one graphics card exclusive to a specific vm? I don't want to screw anything up by trying to use a graphics card on both VMS. So how will I keep them exclusive? Will the host just yoink my stronger graphics cards? because im thinking of either getting a really crappy one (or the integrated one) for the host to run on and I dont know if it will work or not. Will I need to get better components? Because I'm not sure if what Im going to get is capable for this amount of vm weirdness. How do I pass two graphics cards through to two different Vms? I haven't seen anything myself from scouring the web, and I really need help when it comes to that. Do I need more cores? I heard cores are very important to vms but i think a Ryzen 7 3700x is good, im thinking of switching it to an intel i7 9700k or maybe upgrading, I still dont know. Do I need a better motherboard and case? Ive been pretty much guessing if one goes with the other, because im not an experienced builder by any means. The Mac VM is going to be for Photo/Video editing and the Windows VM is going to be for gaming. How will I evenly allocate certain things to each system without forgetting anything? For example, on the Mac, Heavy rendering and the windows will be doing doing not too hardcore gaming, just things like minecraft, csgo, rocket league. Do I need better parts to get the best experience on each? General question, What is a headless host? what does that do? will it help? Final question. Ive been thinking you need things like 3 mice and 3 keyboards for each vm, is that true? I dont know if there's a way to just have one and move it between each vm or at least two and cycle the second pair between Mac and windows.

I am planning on building a pc for my university course, cyber security, because I am in my second year using a laptop. We recently started using virtual machines but my laptop cant handle it. So I'm wanting to build a pc within the £500 budget that can run programming software, virtual machines, networking tasks smoothly. I also want to have a side of gaming and watching youtube/netflix on the side. I am happy to upgrade later down the line like around october/novermber time. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Been saving up for the past 2 years. Also I am from the U.K if that makes a difference to anything.

So VMWare is supposedly targeting AMD's high-level server CPUs with their new licensing fees according to a Tom's Hardware article here. VMWare themselves have acknowledged the licensing changes in their news updates section although they've not mentioned AMD or any other company by name. Been seeing a lot of people theorizing that Intel tossed a lot of money at VMWare to do this seeing as how it seemingly doesn't touch Intel CPUs yet. Don't personally believe this to be the case but I've been proven wrong before. One way or another though, this is definitely going shake things up considering how widespread VMWare Workstation and it's parent company Dell is in the industry coupled with the shifting trends towards higher core counts. Interested in hearing other people's input on the matter though.

Budget Between 2000 and 3000 euro for the PC. Already have a great UW 144hz monitor, mouse, keyboard, etc. Goal I'm building this system primarily for gaming on my 4k television and ultrawide monitor on ultra/high settings. It's also being used for software engineering tasks and running multiple virtual machines at once. Therefor the 3900x and 32GB RAM. What I'm looking for I'm looking for a powerful workhorse which is as silent as possible under heavy load. That's why I've picked the case and AIO watercooling. I'd rather buy a more powerful pc right now and be able to use it for heavier tooling in the future than having to upgrade in a few months. My current systems are a Dell XPS 7590 BN79015 and a Dell XPS 9570 BNX97003. I'm looking for a PC which is more powerful and hopefully a lot more silent when running a few VM's. I'm going for a closed off case (home-office) so RGB is not a necessity at all. What I need help with 1. Are all the components compatible with each-other? 2. Are there components worth a down- or upgrade for my goal? 3. Are there upgrades available (necessary) to make the PC as silent as possible?

Last summer my 3 years old msi r9 280 died, but that hasn't been much of a problem since I left home for university. This summer I will come back home and build a new gaming pc for my brother (i7 8700k, rtx2070, 16gb ram) and I figured out I might actually use it too. Is it possible to make two virtual machines out of a single graphic cards?

I'm looking for a software based solution, to control several virtual machines at one time using a single mouse and keyboard. Example: If I was on Google and clicked the search bar, all of my virtual machines would click the search bar at the same time; and then when I type something, they would all type. I've looked around but found nothing, I can't think why this wouldn't exist?

I am also thinking of getting a r410 with 2x 6 core cpu and 64gb ddr3 1333mhz ram ECC for me and my friends to host game servers on. I would also like to know if you could use a normal psu but i myself wouldn't need it. however to run all those VM's I recommend you go with 32gb 8 for Plex on ubuntu VM and 8gb for the rest, 8gb for Minecraft, Windows 10, and your media. should be perfect and the power consumption shouldn't really matter like you said at this point.

I recently finished my new build, although I didnt check to see if my Ryzen 3 2200G (Raven Ridge) CPU is compatible with my Gigabyte GA-AX370-Gaming 3 motherboard. I tried to enable AMD-V in BIOS so I could run VMs but the option was nowhere to be found. I looked at the manuals and it did confirm there is an option to enable it, and that it is not limited to certain CPUs. I tried troubleshooting but an article I saw said some Raven Ridge CPUs have compatibility issues with newer motherboards. Is there any way I can enable AMD-V without the BIOS?

hello I am planning on building a multipurpose server for local nas storage and rendering but want to run multiple Vm's also but can't find a cpu that has a high core count with low power draw that is any good at rendering or has cheap parts overall like a AMD opteron 2x cheaper than the boards it needs. I am able to run dual CPU motherboards and stuff like that because I want me and my friends to be able to render off it fairly quickly but making it cheap for me to run? any idea what hardware (CPU) I should get due to most of the renders being CPU bound such as archicad rendering and premier rendering and stuff like that. The Vm's will run stuff like nas os's and media server os's also and maybe a remote desktop so I can access files from anywhere and other stuff like that, I am new to this server stuff and recently wanted to get Into servers and server hardware and to have a self built nas and stuff like that.

So, I've just reinstalled windows since the boot time had gone from 2min 15sec to 4min since it really annoyed me. Linus was talking about his mainframe-like modern pc home idea where you've got a pc in the closet that can, preferably dynamically give processing power (or graphics power) to any device in the house and every operating system would actually be a virtual machine. I live in an apartment so I really don't need anything like that but it would be cool to have a base OS that boots in, eg. 20s and I can choose between a windows VM or a linux VM. And the difference between that and dual booting is that I can have multiple windows VM like, one for gaming, one for productivity, one for app development. You get what I mean. So my question is: Does there exist an operating system made explicitly for Virtual Machines?

Here's an alternative way to install windows 95 for those still having issues installing windows 95 manually without the floppy setup disk what you need: .DOS on a floppy or on an image (.flp .img) .Windows 95 cd .VMWARE player (it's free) or virtualpc (I recommend VMWARE) .Magiciso (the free trial version will do) .a copy of MSCDEX.EXE and oakcdrom.sys (both can be found online) MSCDEX.EXE: http://www.techadvice.com/tech/M/MSCDEX.htm oakcdrom.sys: https://goo.gl/YTZ3nL Magiciso: http://www.magiciso.com/download.htm step 1 create a new virtual machine (make sure to add a floppy image drive if you are using vmware) step 2 put your dos floppy/image in or mount it and install dos step 3 download and install the free version of magiciso open magic iso go to new - floppy - 1.44 find a copy of mscdex.exe find a copy of oakcdrom.sys (generic cd rom driver that works with dos.. might have to try another if it doesn't work) RENAME the oakcdrom.sys to cdrom.sys drag both these files into magic iso on the floppy disk we just created save the file close magic iso find the file we just saved in your explorer change the extension from .ima to .flp (if you are using vmware) or .img (if you are using virtualpc) (if you can't see the extensions you're going to need to change your folder options to show extensions) google it. it's easy to do step 4 go back to your virtual machine mount the floppy image we just created a:\ copy mscdex.exe c:\ copy cdrom.sys c:\ (don't forget to rename oakcdrom.sys to cdrom.sys in step 3) step 5 find config.sys in your c drive type: edit config.sys now add a line that says this device=c:\cdrom.sys /d:mscd001 exit and save step 6 find autoexec.bat in your c drive type: edit autoexec.bat now add a line that says this c:\mscdex.exe /d:mscd001 exit and save step 7 restart the computer or virtual machine step 8 we're still not done yet now move to your c drive and type mscdex.exe: /d:mscd001 /M:5 /V /L:d /S /K (this part /M:x refers to the amount of buffers your drive has.. it's either 4 or 5. usually 5) step 9 create a blank floppy image either in vmware or magic iso then mount that new one put your windows 95 cd in the cd drive type: d:\ setup.exe step 10 it should be booting windows 95 now now you might run into troubles when it tries to install the other drivers it might ask you for windows floppies even if you're using the cd version which I never understood but anyways, you can find all of these drivers on the windows 95b cd if you have it they're all in cab files so you'd need to extract them 1 by 1 and put them on floppy images to use them. (huge pain) but I actually just got it to load the drivers off the win95 cd by just trying it over and over again until it worked. it might have been because I either did or didn't restart after putting in the windows 95 cd can't remember, but I'd try both if you're having trouble all in all windows 95 is incredible wonky to install in a virtual machine. I highly recommend using VMWARE and not virtual pc for this one. If you didn't have a hard time installing this.. you got incredible lucky make sure you check to make sure windows95 is seeing your cd drive if not go to the add new hardware wizard in the control panel and see if that detects it (Note: I tried to install it without installing MS-DOS first the first time by using fdisk and format then creating the autoexec.bat and config.sys manually. Even though I did this right I ran into problems when windows started installing. Installing dos before hand made it run a lot smoother for some reason. Ask around and find a copy from a friend. A lot of people still have a copy lying around that they don't care about)

Hey there, I'd like to hear advice on a Linux programming rig I am planning to build at the start of this school year. 1. Budget & Location My budget is about 335.000 HUF/ 1300 USD (as of today, 1 USD is 257.2 HUF), and I can't really go higher than this. I am living in Hungary. 2. Aim Programming and software development, compiles in C,C++; running virtual machines regularly (Linux mainly), multitasking, command line stuff, later not-so-basic Linux distros and more customization (i.e. Arch Linux). A few gaming on low settings (older titles, for example Need for Speed Most Wanted). It will be my main device for every other general usage. . I want this computer to be blazing fast, as I am fed up with the really slow computers I had up until now. Future-proofness is also quite important, as I am planning to use it at university (I am going next year). 3. Monitors I have a 23" FHD Dell LCD monitor with D-Sub and DVI-D, but I might add one or two more with similar specs at one point in the future. 4.

Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to essentially treat the VM as a "real machine" and wipe the previous OS and install a new one. My usage case for this is that i wish to upgrade server 2012 r2 to Server 2016 but want to keep the VM in question live throughout. Can you guys help me ?
