Hello,
Mt post is just intended to qualify the host hardware configuration and functionnalities of Proxmox VE versus VMWARE..
My host server is an TYAN S8212 motherboard with 2 AMD64 opteron 2350 and 2 NICs:
It's got 2 Integrated SataII Raid 0/1 Controller for 2 HDD's and i bought 1 3Ware9650SE 4 Ports Sata II Raid 0/1/5 Controller for Data performances access.
About my networks :
The NIC-1 is connected to an external network with IP adress reserved from a foreign DHCP Server. On this network, my server is a isolated machine with Internet access in a DMZ.
The NIC-2 is connected to an internal network through a d-link switch.
For that network , my host is a DHCP server.
All my Virtual Server have 2 NICs Bridge to NIC-2 by NAT for Internet access and to NIC-1 for internal access.
I just control, open and redirect specific ports on my host to reach my VMs from internet (Ex 8080 or 21,3389, etc...)
My VM's are appliances server's and the data are stored outside the VM's disks for easy backups..
My questions are :
1) Should i store my datas on the RAID 5 controller and the VM's on the internal Raid Controller or is it better to store data and VM's on RAID 5 Controller ?
2) About Proxmox : Can i configure the bridging methods for VM to have the same level of services, NAT and port Forwarding from Host to VM ?
Thank you for all replies,
