This VM is running with a NATted NIC, and legacy DOS TCP/IP LANMAN drivers do not display the DHCP info - So I can't see what IP address the VM is getting, and Trumpet Winsock needs that information. Handily, there is a DHCP.PRM binary file that gets created with the info in it, but there's no actual user tool as part of LANMAN to read it. So... Using only what I have on this VM, I write my own parser!

🌇 Blog Post Forthcoming for GPUs 🌇

ok, it's morning nap time starting 5min ago... but I'm decently pleased that this morning I've wrangled the (yes, linux) kernel into behaving more decently (a little like FreeBSD's sanity) when allocating similarly ID'd PCIe devices to VMs for GPU passthrough.

Short version:
- many GPUs of same PCI ID type in host
- want certain VMs to get certain GPUs
- want main host to get one GPU for compute (server, no display)

FreeBSD:
- the above requires two loader.conf lines and one rc.conf line

Linux:
- oh lordy, how many modprobe and modules-load.d files, and grub entries, and kmod blacklists, rebuild initramfs, and rebuild grub menu, and don't forget to purge the entire nouveau driver from the kernel so it doens't try to backstab nvidia and steal your first born...

How to scare away your customers, exhibit 4821: #Broadcom #VMware:

"VMware distributor Arrow says minimum software subs set to jump from 16 to 72 cores.
Claims Broadcom will levy 20 percent #penalty for customers who don’t pay before renewal deadlines"

I don't know you, but if I were a customer for that product, I'd most probably start migration projects today.

#Proxmox virtualization often goes along with the great Proxmox Backup Server - and we always want statistics! Let's get our metrics of PBS in Grafana!

In this HowTo, we will quickly install and configure the pbs-exporter for hashtag#Prometheus on a Proxmox Backup Server system, add a token for the user and install the hashtag#Grafana dashboard. - #devops #homelab #netops #virtualization #backup #pbs #proxmoxbackupserver

ProxLB 1.0.7 (an opensource DRS alike solution for #Proxmox clusters) is just around the corner!

1.0.7 will be the last version before I'm going to publish the new refactored code base in a modern and object oriented way. Version 1.1.0 squashes some more bugs that were postponed on the current code base and makes the overall future handling much easier (including new features).
