can I use eve-ng on proxmox?

Post by winnioe » Tue Mar 19, 2019 1:43 pm

I found out proxmox is free and powerful virtualization tools,
Is there a person who use proxmox with eve-ng?
Thanks in advance

Uldis,
is there any other hypervisor supported? I have currently licenses eve-pro on proxmox and is running fine.... I didnt observe any issues yet....with esxi is always some issues on HP proiliant servers...mostly stuff around storage drivers what slows down whole system....can you recommend something reliable?

Thank you....

I have tested this in the past, and while it works the performance is absolute crap for nested virt.

You're better off using ESXI trial and just resetting the trial if you really want to run eve virtualized

I will say that no one virtualization will beat bare eve performance.
But if you asking my opinion then 1. place is esxi as hypervisor.
Some had success with Hyper V, but this I never used and will not use it :)
Proxmox is 50/50, some is saying ok, some is saying total crap... It is like about AMD CPU, some saying OK some saying totally doesnt work

Uldis,
can you recommend also hardware what is reliable and esxi is working fine on it ? If not here, can you send me a message?

Thank you.

Actually I have 2 servers one is bare I mentioned above:
UCS-220, Dual CPU E5-2650v3/128G RAM, 2T HDD, this one is bare, and runs any node or lab. for comparision such server can hold x2 Full secv5 user's labs.
Second I have ESXi version Dell Dual CPU X5680, 96G RAM, 2Tb HDD.
This is on is not so powerful, but still useful. For medium level labs failr enough.

What to recommend, I would say, look for newer CPU models, it is very important.
If I have to choose ESXi server I would look for E5-26XXv3 or v4 CPU for ir.
