On Thursday, @gyptazy provided a talk about #BoxyBSD at the "Virtualization Gathering" at @credativde.

@gyptazy provided some more information about the BoxyBSD project, but also about the history and infrastructure including the switches of #FreeBSD #Jails, #bhyve and #Proxmox (#kvm). Afterwards, additional information about the #Sylve project were shared and why this is so important and interesting and could make BoxyBSD return to bhyve based #virtualization.

I've been experimenting with Firecracker, the open source virtual machine monitor from AWS. This is the technology AWS Lambda is built on. It's a performant, reliable, and flexible microVM management tool. I wrote up some observations in this overview, give it a try. bacchi.org/posts/firecracker-o #aws #firecracker #virtualization #serverless

🚀 How to Use USB over IP in Virtualization, Remote Access, and Cloud Workflows
USB over IP enables seamless device access across VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox, and Citrix environments. Whether you need single-user binding or multi-client sharing, the deployment is flexible across Windows, Linux, and cloud hosts. Ideal for dongles, labs, and remote teams that require consistent USB performance anywhere.

Firecracker - công nghệ ảo hóa mở nguồn của AWS dùng cho Lambda, mở nguồn năm 2018. Nhanh, linh hoạt cho từ phòng lab đến doanh nghiệp. Cấu hình: API, tệp cấu hình, khởi động bằng lệnh/jail. Ví dụ: script Bash đơn giản để chạy VM. Bảo mật với jailer tạo các mục giam giữ độc lập. Khám phá tiềm năng và cách sử dụng Firecracker! #Firecracker #AWS #Virtualization #Linux #Côngnghệmởnguồn #AWSLambda

#ProxLB start supporting #Proxmox's native HA rules (affinity/anti-affinity) with release 1.1.11.

This way, you can simply use the built-in rules via the interface, but still use enhanced rules via ProxLB by tags or pools (even for non HA VMs/CTs). This feature was already requested a long time ago and get's now streamlined over all ways, ensuring we can balance our VMs (and CTs) across the nodes with and even without any configured HA objects - fully flexible to your needs!

Requirements:
* Proxmox 9.x
* ProxLB 1.1.11

Version 1.1.11 is expected to be released by the end of this or within the upcoming week; depending on my spare time.

PS: Keep in mind, tomorrow starts our "Virtualization Gathering" at @credativde@mastodon.social and I'm providing a talk about my @BoxyBSD@bsd.cafe project where I tell you a bit more about the infrastrucutre/hypervisors (due to the limited time only very high level)! Feel free to join, it's free!

A question for SPARC experts – did anyone use virtualization/hypervisors on SPARC v9/Sun4u machines, i.e. before the availability of Sun4v processors? If so, is there any sample code for a (ideally bare-metal "type 1") hypervisor available?

The only reference I found is a paper by Leon SPARC (v8) users who conclude that SPARC v8 should be classically (Popek/Goldberg) virtualizable using a trap- and emulate approach.

How to Install Ubuntu in a Virtual Machine with VirtualBox on Windows and Linux

Setting up an Ubuntu virtual machine with VirtualBox is one of the easiest and safest ways to experiment with new Linux environments without touching the main operating system.Whether you use Windows or Linux, a VM (Virtual Machine) allows you to test software, servers, containers, or scripts without risk: everything happens in an isolated and easily recoverable space.

CISA has outlined new findings on BRICKSTORM — a persistent backdoor targeting VMware vSphere & Windows systems in select public sector and IT environments.

Encrypted channels, DoH usage, VM snapshot access, and hidden VMs make detection difficult.
Curious how others in the community are approaching monitoring and segmentation for virtualized workloads.
