Hi there!

How many memory per VM I get in PVE?
Is there some limit? 1 TB? 2 TB?
Just curious

Thanks

assuming the OS in the VM supports it, as much as the host hardware can
support (no limit).

Good. Nice to hear that.
But I need someone in the Proxmox staff could answer the question... Just
to be more accurate about it.
Thanks

I'm not a staff member. Just a warning--I might be totally wrong about all this. Or...not.

IIRC, the coded limit is 4TiB per VM (I think there's a QEMU imposed limit at 42 bits...somebody correct me if I'm wrong.) Which gets into a whole big off-topic discussion about address paths and the size of page tables and their structure, so....yeah. Anyway.

I'm going to guess (given your recent posts) that you don't have that much available on the hosts, so Mark's answer is still correct--it's as much as you have in your hosts.

So we can *all* bypass some back and forth: Are you *really* trying to ask about memory over-commitment?
If so, the short answer is "Please don't do that if you care about stability, which we know you do. Use ballooning."
If not, please ask the question behind "how much memory can I allocate to a VM?"
In short: Why are you asking?

Because somebody told me that Proxmox could not address more than 1TB.
Never mind!

I see. I wonder if that person was confused.
XenServer does have a 1TB limit.

(But, I’m not staff for them, either. )

Since it is kvm, you can look at the kvm limits:

That's ok for RHEL and pure KVM/QEMU.
But I thing Proxmox staff do something to the QEMU code used in Proxmox,
because this friend of mine doesn't get a VM with more than 1 TB of memory
to work properly!

Does the CPU and host/guest OS support addressing 2TB RAM?
Most CPU-s can address <=2^40bit physical memory!

For example "address sizes    : 39 bits physical, 48 bits virtual" for
my laptop cpu.

It’s difficult to troubleshoot something with partial information, as I’m sure you’re aware.

For instance, what does “(not) work properly” mean?
Does it boot and then fail? Not boot?
Does a VM with 750GB of ram work? 800? 999? 1023? 1025?
What exactly doesn’t work?
How has he determined it doesn’t work?
What has he tried to do to fix it?
Hell, what version is he running?

More importantly: Has he (or you, for that matter), considered purchasing a support contract from Proxmox? Several of us are lead to believe google searching doesn’t work for you, so I’ve entered the term “proxmox subscription” on your behalf to arrive at this page: https://www.proxmox.com/en/proxmox-ve/pricing

Failing that, which is what you BOTH should do, perhaps your friend can join the list and post his issue and details on his ecosystem, rather than you sending a dozen emails with cryptic, partial, and secondhand information?

IIRC, the coded limit is 4TiB per VM (I think there's a QEMU imposed
limit
at 42 bits...somebody correct me if I'm wrong.) Which gets into a
whole big
off-topic discussion about address paths and the size of page tables
and
their structure, so....yeah. Anyway.

I'm going to guess (given your recent posts) that you don't have that
much
available on the hosts, so Mark's answer is still correct--it's as
much as
you have in your hosts.

So we can *all* bypass some back and forth: Are you *really* trying to
ask about memory over-commitment?
If so, the short answer is "Please don't do that if you care about
stability, which we know you do. Use ballooning."
If not, please ask the question behind "how much memory can I allocate
to
a VM?"
In short: Why are you asking?

normally this is done by an desktop environment, not often used for
headless Proxmox VE setups.

You may want to take a look at udisks2[0][1], there some wikis[2]/tutorials
showing it's usage.

Playing around with udev/automountfs could also be an option.

This covers the case where any usb stick will mounted to a
reasonably-named directory.

Other cases:
To have a specific stick (e.g. by label or uuid) mounted to a specific
location you can use a simple 'enabled' systemd.mount(5)[1] unit
using a What= option pointing to a corresponding path (eg. one in
/dev/disk/by-label or /dev/disk/by-uuid).

And if you make such a unit with a path in /dev/disk/by-path you can
have a fixed mapping of physical usb slots to paths in the file system.

Finally, to cause a mount-attempt upon accessing the target path, rather
than when it gets plugged in, an x-systemd.automount[2] entry in
/etc/fstab or systemd.automount(5)[2] unit can be used.

apt install udisks2
vim /etc/fstab
/dev/sde1         /media/sde1                        auto
defaults        0 0

Its work fine (with auto sync after data copy).

The qemu limit is 4TB.
proxmox don't have a max limit in vm config.


But I'm not sure that seabios support more than 1TB. (never tried it, but in 2013 it was not supported).
maybe enabling uefi could help.

Hi there!

How many memory per VM I get in PVE?
Is there some limit? 1 TB? 2 TB?
Just curious

Thanks
