FusionPBX LXC or KVM?

[elkato]

Hi guys,
I recently upgraded Proxmox to 4.4 version (LXC + KVM). I wonder if you have tried and what do you recommend for a production FusionPBX installation in any of this virtualization technologies, and why.

Thanks in advance, and great forum to participate!!!

LXC because of lower overhead

...and no timing issues

Bit of a bump - but Fusionpbx works exceptionally well via lxc under Proxmox. Just remember to do 'apt-get install systemd systemd-sysv ca-certificates' on the debian 8 template first.

Thanks. I'm using it already since February in produccion over LXC, and about 20 concurrent calls per day. Works fine.
I needed to mark packets with Dscp and configure QoS on network to improve RTP audio. After that no much audio issues.
Im using OVS on proxmox, and only bad thing I've found was not finding much info about QoS on OVS. I didn't find how to setup CoS or Dcsp, similar as I'm doing on physical switch Cisco SG-300.

I have never needed to use QOS, in fact QOS should be useless unless it is on a LAN

Yes on LAN. We have units on a DC, and there are many other traffic. so we have set dscp, and we see better notable results on audio quality (using ulaw). We have improvement at switch and FW level.
