Looking for Reliable Help to Buy, Sell, or Rent Property in Dubai?
by AHMAD Zeshan 06 Dec '25

06 Dec '25

I’ve been exploring the Dubai real estate market lately — both for investment and personal use — and wanted to share something useful for anyone who’s currently buying, selling, or renting here. I recently interacted with a real estate team that really stood out in terms of clarity, responsiveness, and how they break down market data. Instead of pushing random listings, they actually guide you based on budget, ROI, and location goals. Whether you're looking for a rental in a mid-range community or planning to buy into one of the new luxury villa projects, they keep the entire process transparent. They also handle selling quite efficiently — proper listing presentation, real market pricing, and serious buyers instead of just traffic. What I liked most was their follow-through; they don’t disappear once the viewing is done. If anyone here is navigating Dubai’s property market and needs support with buying, selling, or renting, I’d definitely recommend giving them a look. Happy to share more details if anyone needs guidance or wants to discuss specific areas. Website : https://maeqularealestate.com/

How UAE Residents Can Apply for a Visit Visa Easily
by premiertravelerandtours＠gmail.com 04 Dec '25

04 Dec '25

Hey everyone! If you are living in the UAE and planning to travel abroad, getting a visit visa is the first step. Many people get confused about the process, so I thought I’d share some tips based on my experience. For UAE residents, whether you are from Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or anywhere in the Emirates, you usually need a valid residency visa to apply for a visit visa to other countries. The good news is, the process is quite straightforward if you know the steps. Here’s a simple guide: Check the visa type – Are you traveling for tourism, business, or visiting family? This decides the documents you need. Prepare documents – Passport, UAE residency proof, completed application form, flight tickets, hotel bookings, and bank statements are usually required. Submit your application – Many countries now have online submission or centers like VFS Global in UAE. Pay the fees – Fees vary depending on the country and visa type. Wait for processing – It can take from a few days to a couple of weeks depending on the destination. Pro Tips: Always double-check your documents before submission. Make sure your passport has at least 6 months validity. A detailed travel itinerary improves your chances of approval. I personally used this method when applying for a Japan visit visa from Dubai, and everything went smoothly. If you’re planning your next trip, make sure to follow these steps and stay organized. Does anyone else have tips or recent experiences applying for visit visas from the UAE? Share your insights!

You can modify the nfs server: [-tcp-max-xfer-size <integer>] - TCP Maximum Transfer Size (bytes) (privilege: advanced) This optional parameter specifies the maximum transfer size (in bytes) that the storage system negotiates with the client for TCP transport of data for NFSv3 and NFSv4.x protocols. The range is 8192 to 1048576 Setting to the max of 1048576 will allow the client to be set to the same If your nfs client supports it, you can use “nconnect” set to 4 to also help Sent from Gmail Mobile.

Proxmox and NetApp NFS volumes
by Florian Schmid 07 Nov '25

07 Nov '25

Hello, we are moving to Proxmox now and I would need some help from you. In the past, I have always used NFSv3, because in our KVM environment, we had issues with NFSv4.1 and head fail-overs -> VMs got paused I think also VMware had such issues. Problem I think is that NFSv4.1 is stateful and on a head fail-over, this state got lost. I'm on 9.14.1. As NFSv3 is quite old and Proxmox is using a newer kernel, I wanted to ask, if someone of you have experience with Proxmox and NFS volumes from NetApp. Do you use special mount options? Is NFSv4.2 working fine with head fail-overs -> VMs are not pausing or don't even notice it? We have 25 Gbit network interfaces as a bond to our NetApp, are here any special options to configure? Are you using on VM disks "cache=none" or something different? Unfortunately, Proxmox has not much experience with NetApp either, so that I hope someone from you can help me here to create a good, fast and stable setup. This is how a mount point looks like with default options from Proxmox and NFSv3: nfs-root-01:/pve_DC_nfs_root_01 /mnt/pve/nfs-v3-root-01 nfs rw,relatime,vers=3,rsize=65536,wsize=65536,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountaddr=172.16.4.3,mountvers=3,mountport=635,mountproto=udp,local_lock=none,addr=172.16.4.3 0 0 This is from our old virtualization oVirt: nfs-root-01:/oVirt_DC_nfs_root_01 /rhev/data-center/mnt/nfs-root-01:_oVirt__DC__nfs__root__01 nfs rw,relatime,vers=3,rsize=65536,wsize=65536,namlen=255,soft,nolock,nosharecache,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=6,sec=sys,mountaddr=172.16.4.3,mountvers=3,mountport=635,mountproto=udp,local_lock=all,addr=172.16.4.3 0 0 * oVirt was using soft, but this I think, I shouldn't use on Proxmox and instead use hard. oVirt had a special watchdog for this. Best regards, Florian
