I'm setting up an HP ProLiant DL380 G10 (16-core Xeon, 32GB RAM) with Proxmox VE for our small business (15 users). I plan to run two VMs:
CentOS ERP: 4 cores, 16GB RAM Windows Server (DC, file sharing): 4 cores, 8GB RAM
My specific concerns are:
Is this VM resource allocation optimal for my use case? With 32GB total RAM, am I allocating too much to the VMs and not leaving enough for the hypervisor? How can I best configure storage for these VMs using the available SSDs and SAS drives?
Any advice on optimizing this setup for better performance would be appreciated. This version:
