I've just finished with the last call of the day.
It's been nice. Talking with nice people is always a very good thing.

And another Proxmox server will be migrated to FreeBSD - bhyve

#FreeBSD #RunBSD #bhyve

The recording of the March 19th, 2026 #bhyve Production User Call is up:

https://youtu.be/c8FhHB4WZk8

We discussed debz, illumos bhyve/ARM64, vPMU virtualized performance counters, building EDK2 with LLVM, LibVirt updates, VM serial console configuration, default storage block sizes, the new FreeBSD bridge code, Sylve NAS features, and more!

Looks like #bhyve backed with sparse zvols presents virtual NVME disks with 512b sectors, but ahci and vtbd with 16K sectors. Huh.

Same underlying storage, why change the sector size? #freebsd

#illumos on #ARM64 under #bhyve progress!

They’ve addressed a blocker on the illumos side but #FreeBSD needs some attention.

I’ll take a look but feel free to do the same if this interests you.
