    For Best Performance - Proxmox Cluster with CEPH or ZFS?

    After months of planning, I came to a conclusion to assemble 3 Proxmox Nodes and cluster them together. I'm mostly interested in Mini-PC (NUC Style) with dual 2.5GbE LANs but after building 32 Core Epyc Proxmox Node, I'm known to the performance boost with actual server hardware. Anyway, I will...

    [SOLVED] Ceph Pool listing VM and CT Disks "rbd error: rbd: listing images failed: (2) No such file or directory (500)"

    Hello guys, I updated my PVE Cluster yesterday to the newest Ceph Version and did not notice any issues at first. The VMs and CTs do run normally, I can read and write to the virtual disks, even create new ones, just fine! Migrating between Nodes also works, as well as deleting CTs... But...

    [SOLVED] Why does my PVE-Cluster migrate VMs and CTs when issueing the start command?

    This has started happening ever since PVE 7.4.x I can reproduce the issue 100% of the time when (bulk) stopping VMs and CTs on one Node, then (bulk) starting them back up again. As soon as the start command is issued, the VMs and CTs will migrate to a different Node, although they should just...

    [SOLVED] High availability with 2 VMs

    I want a highly available OPNsense setup in my Proxmox cluster. OPNsense has native HA features, but they require some manual tweaking to set up and I don't want to run a separate OPNsense VM for each node in my cluster. So I had the idea of just setting up two VMs on separate nodes and have...

    Broken Cluster on New Install

    Hi All, I was setting up a new ProxMox cluster with three hosts, A, B, and C. I made the mistake of turning B off when I added C (I was worried I was going to pop a circuit breaker). So now that I have all three turned on, A and C show up as in the cluster and B is not joined to the cluster...

    Is it possible to create a high-performance cluster using only two PCs with Ceph? What are the correct configuration steps?

    I have two PCs, each with 16 GB of RAM and 500 GB of SSD storage. I have created a cluster in Proxmox with them, but when running PowerBI in the first VM of the first node, it does not share the load with the other node. How can I create a high-performance cluster? I am looking to optimize the...

    I have issues since on my Proxmox cluster since I added a new node with ZFS (RAIDZ2) storage. I had a 3-node cluster (version 7.3) where each nodes (names: node1, node2 and node3) had a single disk using XFS filesystem, I added a new v7.4 node (name: node4) having 8 disks ZFS RAIDZ2. Note...
