Hello,
this is my first post. I have 3 Dell OptiPlex 7060 Micro which I have upgraded and each of the computers has the following specifications:
Now what I want is to make a CEPH pool with the 3 machines and using only the 512GB disks so I can install VMS with docker and LXC services from the proxmox community scripts. This pool will be high availability so that if one of the nodes dies the VMs will be transferred to one of the other nodes. I already watched a youtube video and I think I can configure it.
Then after that I want to make a NAS with all the other 4TB disks (each machine has 2, and so there are 6 disks for the 3 machines). Ideally I want all the three nodes to see the NAS storage as one samba folder where I can keep my photos(using Immich), stream my movies (using Jellyfin), and make backups of the VMs.
This I'm not really sure how to implement.
Is it possible to make a NAS when your disks are on different machines? I see tons of videos where people talk about NAS servers but their disks are on the same machine and my disks are on different machines.
Should I be making another CEPH pool for the NAS? How do I configure RAID?
I'm new to this so please excuse me if the questions I'm asking are stupid.
