  • My install is on Arch linux, I just installed incus and cockpit-machines and (from memory) that was enough.

    But, yeah, it’s definitely a step away from a full GUI…

    But I think that’s part of the appeal (to me)… there’s a lot of things preinstalled with Proxmox, (and XCP-ng, etc), that I’ll just never use… so if I could get that old Ras Pi3 as a 2nd node in the cluster without all the fluff… maybe that’s a good thing?


  • I am in no way even slightly an “expert” here, but Incus could be considered a lightweight Proxmox…

    They’re both going to run some VMs and / or containers, but with Proxmox you get the overhead of the fancy GUI.

    So if your host(s) aren’t running guests at >90% load, then there won’t be any difference in performance.

    I’ve recently installed Proxmox because everyone else uses it (and VMware’s free ESXi is now dead)… but after pulling my hair out trying to get some things done, I’m seriously looking to move to Incus.

    There’s another post here somewhere (the one about free ESXi being killed off) with someone explaining more about Incus, which seems like it’s the way to go… maybe worth a search.










  • Weird. netin was busy, yet the bottom of the screen implies more outbound traffic (I guess it’s connected the other way around?)

    And the log looks like a SMB/CIFS issue… maybe not the interweb?

    But, it definitely looks like something got stuck in a loop and triggered a memory leak.

    Whatever VM / CT was using CPUs 7 & 10 at the time was the problem… find that and you’ll find the next step down the rabbit hole…
