Well, it's either enabled or not. There may be a bug that doesn't stop it but I haven't seen it. Worst case a reboot would take care of it (when properly disabled).


Cheers,

Thanks, I've seen it. But it still causing really high disk writes. For a time being I stopped this service...

General Discussion / Re: Bhyve on OPNsense for virt...

Quote from: darkvoid on December 25, 2025, 03:29:56 PMChipping in from some experience with my setup.

netgraph networking works very well with bhyve.

I use the following script to setup a bridge to link the virtual machine directly to the OPNSense LAN interface:

# Setup ng_bridge if required
if ! ngctl status bnet0: >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  ngctl -f- <<END
    mkpeer igc0: bridge lower link0
    name igc0:lower bnet0
    connect igc0: bnet0: upper link1
    msg igc0: setpromisc 1
    msg igc0: setautosrc 0
END
fi

This creates a bridge linked to igc0 (my OPNsense LAN interface) and prepares for bhyve to attach.

bhyve can subsequently attach to the bridge as follows:

bhyve \
-c sockets=1,cores=8,threads=1 \
-m 16G \
-s 0,hostbridge \
-s 2,virtio-blk,/vm/hdd.img \
-s 3,virtio-net,netgraph,path=bnet0:,peerhook=link2 \
-s 4,virtio-9p,data=/zdata/vm \
-s 5,virtio-rnd \
-s 31,lpc \
-l bootrom,/vm/BHYVE_UEFI.fd,/vm/efi-vars.fd \
-l com1,stdio \
-u \
-H -P -S \

This has provided very stable and performant networking on the bhyve instance.

Thanks...

Few questions:
1) Can you post your entire setup instructions of running bhyve on OPNsense. I tried to follow the previous posts, but am unable to get an Alpine VM to install.

2) Your networking script - does this auto start at boot up of OPNsense or how to manage this?

Some help in setting up a complete bhyve (Alpine Linux VM) from scratch would be very helpful. Thank you.

25.7, 25.10 Series / Hostwatch - high disk writes
Last post by GreenMatter - January 16, 2026, 08:51:04 PM
After upgrading to 25.7.11 hostwatch (v. 1.0.2) causes high (60M) disk writes and increased CPU utilisation. 
Is there any fix for it?

OK, vielen Dank.

Kurze Frage noch. Wenn die MTU 1492 ist oder sein muss, macht dieser Wert dann überhaupt Sinn oder muss ich ihn auch auf 1492 stellen (oder leer lassen? )

Das ist sowieso der Default, wenn Du nichts einstellst.
