    CIFS storage is not online

    I would look at logs for clues, but your issue sounds like it is related to being full, rather than just random like the other posts in this thread

    CIFS storage is not online

    Wait a second, I just noticed that Hetzner Storage Box is an internet backup service. I would say that the issue the OP is experiencing is related the WAN latency, unless it can be ruled out. or ISP traffic filtering.

    CIFS storage is not online

    From performing backup/restore on about 20 VMs/containers it seems that when the storage target is overwhelmed it stops responding to proxmox, even though it still responds to other network clients. Damn Ceph is complicated... ;)

    [SOLVED] Install proxmox on an USB 3.0 stick --> Is this a good idea?

    My situation is that I have a 1u server with an internal usb port that I would like to utilize for the hypervisor because I want to use the two pcie slots for redundant vm storage. because of this I plan to use a 256GB usb (muf-256ab) so that it will have a lot of spar room for writes. I'm...

    First Cluster networking questions (OVS and Uplink)

    yes, according to what you just stated you must still have the same vmbr setup (with the same name I assume), so it seems to me that you're trading the complexity of virtual networking for the complexity of vlans (yay), I personally would prefer not having to deal with vlans at all on the...

    PVE HA cluster redundant networking with OpenVSwitch and RSTP

    My topology looks like this: Does this answer your question? Do you think that this is the most optimized solution that achieves performance, redundancy and cost savings? If not, what would you suggest? P.S. this exact layout is not final, I will be making some upgrades and layout changes...

    PVE HA cluster redundant networking with OpenVSwitch and RSTP

    Still not sure where you're going with this? Are you trying to make the argument that there is somehow a disadvantage or limitation to stacked switches as opposed to MLAG or dual standalone switches? If so how realistic is would the disadvantage be? Is it significant enough to make a case for...

    PVE HA cluster redundant networking with OpenVSwitch and RSTP

    First time I have heard about this, I will look into it more. I can understand why theoretically latency would increase, but is this something that is even measurable? This is what I came up with when performing a quick test: My windows box -> standalone (cisco SG series) switch -> router...
