10Gb NIC on RHEL / AlmaLinux / Rocky / EuroLinux / CentOS 8

I have an AQC107 10Gb NIC installed in my PC running AlmaLinux 8. AlmaLinux 8 supports the card well enough but I found that a number of network settings need to be changed to get the best performance.

The driver is included in AlmaLinux 8 but you may want to install the current release which you can download from Marvell. Installation instructions for the driver are included in the download.

Thunderbolt Networking

this gist is part of this series

NOTE FOR THIS TO BE RELIABLE ON NODE RESTARTS YOU WILL NEED PROXMOX KERNEL 6.2.16-14-pve OR HIGER

This fixes issues i bugged with the thunderbolt / thunderbolt-net maintainers (i will take everyones thanks now, lol)

Install LLDP - this is great to see what nodes can see which.

install lldpctl with apt install lldpd

Proxmox PVE Host Config Backup Script

This script can be used to backup essential configuration files from the Proxmox Virtual Enivronment (PVE) host.

The script will create backups using tar with specified backup prefix and date and time stamp in the file name. Script will also delete backups that are older then number of days specified.

Create backup script file

To create backup script that will be executed every day we can create backup script in /etc/cron.daily/ folder. We need to make it writeable by root (creator) only, but readable and executable by everyone:

touch /etc/cron.daily/pvehost-backup

	find /etc -type f -name "php.ini" -exec sed -i 's/output_buffering/;output_buffering/g' {} +
