not THAT AD issue

SR-IOV issue got me again. Built a new VM a couple weeks ago and for the past 2 days it has been losing network connectivity. I totally forgot to check it. Host is running 2012 R2. I thought MS fixed this a long time ago, but I still had to disable it.

Don't use E1000 if it's vmware.

@Grey Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 is the host (no gui).

Early morning Zoom meeting. M&A stuff.
Really enjoying my morning coffee.

If it's anything!

What's wrong with E1000? I use them with no issues (well E1000e).

You shouldn't. It's an emulated interface that is unable to take advantage of all the modern virtualization advances for the past 20-ish years.

@scottalanmiller Yes, I know.... Waiting on permission to upgrade. Most of the VMs are 2012 R2 also with the exception of 2 that are on 2016. Need to export all of them and re-load the hosts with HV 2019 but need approval to do so. I don't own the servers.

You can in place upgrade from HV 2012 R2 to HV 2016. I've done it a few times with no issues.
I wold assume you can also go from 2016 to 2019.

Providing the hardware supports it you can.

@JaredBusch I was going to export the VMs and reload the new OS. I may just have to do the upgrade. I hardly every do upgrades like that on MS stuff.
-
@coliver The hosts are HP DL380 G9 (identical specs) and I don't foresee any issues. They have been running for about 5 years now.

You do it every 6 months now if you run Windows 10.
-
@JaredBusch True. Never thought of it that way.... I do it that way on my Fedora boxes and never really worried about it.

So what should one use? On VMware and Proxmox?
