Still looking how to balance your VMs in #Proxmox clusters? #ProxLB 1.1.9 is here!
This release adds features that were requested during the #DutchProxmoxDay2025 which was hosted by our friends Tuxis (tuxis.nl). I'm hearing your feedback and all your feedback from the community and user base is important to me, so let me introduce the following new features:
* Add an optional memory balancing threshold
* Add affinity/anti-affinity support by pools
* Add pressure (PSI) based balancing for memory, cpu, disk
* Pressure (PSI) based balancing for nodes
* Pressure (PSI) based balancing for guests
You can simply upgrade via APT or by obtaining the latest Docker/Container image. PSI based balancing (still in beta) requires Proxmox VE 9 or greater.
Thanks to my employer

🚀 Live from the Dutch #Proxmox Day in Ede: #ProxLB takes the stage!
Today, you can get some more insights about the ProxLB project at the Dutch Proxmox Day 2025, hosted by our friends Tuxis (tuxis.nl)! Even I cannot make it, I'm really happy to know that my mate @formorer@rollenspiel.social (from @credativde@mastodon.social) is stepping in for me to provide you more information and details about ProxLB and its functions!
Together, we can improve and create a fully open source based virtualization environment, fitting all needs - and Proxmox is a perfect base! And we will also see some more talks from Tuxis (tuxis.nl), Proxmox Server Solutions, ESA and Veeam Software.

I just released ProxLB 1.1.7 for Proxmox - bringing in DRS alike VM resource based balancing to your Proxmox cluster!
What is ProxLB?
The Prox Load Balancer (ProxLB) helps you to rebalance your Container and VM workloads across your nodes in your Proxmox cluster based on the resource usage of nodes (e.g., CPU, memory, local disk).
Changelog:
* Add conntrack state aware migrations of VMs. (Closes: 305)
* Add graceful shutdown for SIGINT command. (Closes: 304)
* Fix crash when validating absent migration job ids. (Closes: 308)
* Fix guest object names are not being evaluated in debug log. (Closes: 310)
* Note: Have a great Dutch Proxmox Day 2025!
ProxLB is fully #opensource and under #GPL (#GPLv3).

DRS but for #Proxmox? Yes!
With #ProxLB (free and #opensource / #GPLv3) you can get something which comes close to it - also featuring things like affinity/anti-affinity rules, node pinning, grouping and maintenance mode for multiple nodes. And if you’re even more interested, there’ll be a talk about my project at the #DutchProxmoxDay next month :)
