I have a bhyve vm running Rocky Linux 8.7 (RL). I have vm-bhyve installed. I need to test that the upgrade to RL 8.8 will not disrupt the user application running on that vm. My plan is to clone the production vm and perform the upgrade on that. If everything goes well then I would like to...

When trying to add vm-public to em0 I get the following error: doas vm switch add public em0 /usr/local/sbin/vm: ERROR: failed to add member em0 to the virtual switch public My guess is that the problem is linked with the fact that I am also using sysutils/bastille to manage jails. This has...

I have read a couple of threads where the poster had seemingly the same problem as I had, but their solutions either didn't work, or I had already tried it. I'm hoping there is something I missed and that I've made a simple mistake. I have a FreeBSD 13.1 server with its main Ethernet interface...

I've been using iohyve to help manage bhyve instances for a couple of years, but I'd like to explore other options. Is it safe to run multiple management systems on one host (iohyve in addition to, say, cbsd or vm-bhyve), or is there a strategy for migrating guests from one to another? Is there...

I am having some difficulty getting vm-bhyve working. Actually, I am having difficulty getting bhyve to work at all, but I opted to try vm-bhyve because it seems easier to use and manage compared to the native tools. I am trying to run a Linux guest (I have tried Ubuntu and Fedora) using...

Hello, I am using vm-bhyve to try and run a Windows install. All seems good, but when I try to connect with VNC, I get no response. The only thing I have done differently that the usual path is to use a manual switch, since I already have one configured using iohyve. I'm testing vm-bhyvve...

Hey guys :) I have problems with getting pci passtrough and vm-bhyve to work. Every time I start the VM the whole host system freezes and reboots (I think only when an ethernet cable is connected otherwise the VM simply won't start). The VM only starts if I comment the passtrough line out...
