Hi, Here a summary of the weekend.
First, thanks to you guys to be there, it was great to finally meet you ! users were pretty happy to see finally a proxmox stand at fosdem - we have seen a lloootttt of people on the stand with questions. (I have 10min break on the full weekend). We always had 2-3 users asking for questions all the days .( hopefully, we were 4 , but it was pretty intensive) - we had enough sticker for the 2 days - we didn't have enough t-shirt ^_^ , but we were the only stand give them for free ^_^ we were out of stock saturday afternoon, and we only give them to proxmox users talking with us Most asked question (I don't remember all): - multi-cluster interface (This is the running gag of the weekend, Hi Stoiko ;) - more cloud/user portal/more simple oriented alternative interface (only vm management for example, no display of nodes, with big icons) A lot of admin are pretty happy with current interface, but they said it can be too complex/too much feature display to give access to user/customer. Be able to restrict displayed feature (not only greying them out) could be great too. - As it was expected, a lot of people are looking to leave vmware (thanks Broadcom). Asking question about features parity (maybe it could be great to have a paper about features/diff vs other hypervisors). A lot of question about vm compatibility, and of course migration from vmware. (Maybe a gui or a wizard tool could be fine. I known than Xenorchestra guys have done it, calling vmware api to directly export|import) - snapshot/thin prov from san. (mostly from guys from vmware as they need a shared san for HA , and they have vmfs layer ) - pbs: s3 storage remote sync (already on the roadmap) - be able to launch multiple vzdump in parallel on 1 host (seem to have a lock currently) - be able to have a cluster wide lock for backup job.(to no have every node launching vzdump at the same time) - a guy from datacore want to contact somebody from proxmox for storage api integration and other partneship (I give his card to stoikov) - a guy from Thales (big French company) was looking for a sale contact at Proxmox (He don't have give me his card, and I don't have seen him later) - a lots of guys ask: "What is proxmox VE ?". So I think they are possible communication/marketing improvement ^_^ - more generic questions about support, training, licenses.. _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
