Thanks Alexander for your answers (You are the Master of Masters), but the
questions are based in the buffer read/write of "KVM Live Backup"
In the company exist a person hired as DBA of MS-SQL Server, then my
preocupation is only about of behavior of this VM while "KVM Live Backup" is
running and not of the memory for MS-SQL Server.
Please, Can you send me the answers again?
Note:
These questions is because I am involved in a project and the idea is to use
several RAID 10 in the same PVE Host for use of a VM with MS-SQL Server, and
for the backup a single SATA hard drive will be used on an NFS Server with a
NIC of 1 Gb/s, and i don't want get performance degradation or at least a
minimun of degradation while "KVM Live Backup" is running
And the fifth question:
What will happen if this NFS Server suddenly decomposes while "KVM Live
Backup" is running?
Best regards
Cesar

1- But as the buffer need RAM free, what are the RAM requirements for use
this buffer?
Do you mean buffer for your sqlserver in windows guest ?
if yes, it's like a real server : enough ram to handle all the database in
memory ;)
2- The requeriments of buffer RAM will be always static in any case, or
will be dinamic?
The memory is dynamic between different vms, if the vms don't use it.
But if you are using a database, it should use all the memory available in
the guest. (or you need to limit maxmemory usage it in sqlserver)

Thanks for your nice answer Eric
@Dietmar or anyone that can answer, please let me to do a questions:

2- The requeriments of buffer RAM will be always static in any case, or will
be dinamic?
3- If is dinamic, which will be the formula that i need to know for obtain a
nice performance? (for buy the RAM that will be necessary)
4- Will get I at least a minimum of degradation in this case ( obviously
while "KVM Live Backup" is running) ? (see the note above)
Best regards

Anyways, I will try to upgrade KVM to 1.7 first (many backup related
changes).
We can then test again and try to optimize further.
Cesar, from my testing KVM 1.7 fixed the backup related performance issues.
See archive:
http://pve.proxmox.com/pipermail/pve-devel/2013-December/009296.html
The buffers related to Live backup are for the data sent to the backup, not
the data sent to the VMs disk.
The data sent to the disk will still use whatever cache policy you have set
for that disk.
