Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Storage recommendation to be used from Proxmox 8 .4 and 9.0.I think we may be experiencing some semantical difference. "SAN" or Storage Area Networks typically mean shared block storage- eg iSCSI, FC, NVOF or even SAS/SCSI. "Directory Storage" means (to me) locally mounted filesystem, either on...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Storage recommendation to be used from Proxmox 8 .4 and 9.0.Lets begin with the obvious. what are you using now? I presume it some sort of NAS since you're using "directory-based storage." Is this besides the above? in addition to? Either a NAS or a SAN can handle this, so it looks like you already have...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread QCOW2 on ZFS, but over NFS?.nfs is just the transport. no special magic occurs because thats what you are using for connectivity.

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox cannot access Unraid SMB share.I think you might want to re-evaluate the basis of troubleshooting from belief to, ahem, troubleshooting. Well that is the problem isnt it; maybe post those too?
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Alpha Testing - GitHub repo open: Feature Proposal: Lightweight “SMB Gateway” Add‑on for Proxmox VE (GUI‑managed native/LXC/VM options).neat idea, but I think you may want to pick EITHER homelab/smb use vs actual enterprise use, as their usecase will dictate widely different requirements. IF you want to target home/SMB use, you need a gui for user and ACL management; maybe...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox cannot access Unraid SMB share.check logs on your smb serving device (unraid) around the time you get disconnected. most likely network issues.

Hi... Here is a systemd unit that I use for ocfs2. I hope you can use it to adapt to your needs # /etc/systemd/system/data.mount [Unit] Description=Data mount After=drbd.service After=o2cb.service After=ocfs2.service [Mount]... -
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread disk unknown.tldr- its working as intended, and that "unknown" is cosmetic only. ignore it.

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread SAN iSCSI/LVM Big VG - Best practices."Best Practices" in this context are largely dependent on your use case.. While performance is an important part of your strategy, its not the sole objective. As you should be aware, LVM on shared storage is supported on lvm thick only. Snapshot...

Aalexskysilk reacted to bbgeek17's post in the thread SAN iSCSI/LVM Big VG - Best practices with Like.
Hello @baalkor, this really depends on the capabilities of your backend storage and your specific configuration. Personally, I would consider multiple LVM pools if: You are dealing with very high-performance storage, where LVM itself can be a...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Security: recommendations for going prod with pve.That probably depends on your customers more than it does you. Having some exposure to the industry, I can tell you most studios will effectively give you their policies when you'll submit a vendor security questionnaire. "Proxmox" isnt really...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Problem with mounted hard drive after restore.payload on the host. you can share directories to your containers as mountpoints. Instead of your data living INSIDE a VM logical volume, it can live on your normal filesystem (eg, /srv/my_important_data) that makes things easier and safer...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread PVE Replication with ext4.ok, but what happens when you run the workload on host B for a while? do you have any form of check to make sure you're synchronizing the right source to the right destination? The above procedure is fairly simple to set up with two PVE hosts...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Problem with mounted hard drive after restore.you created a circular dependency. your host is dependent on a datastore served by a guest, but the guest needs the host to run. I would begin by disabling the SMB_NODE_200 datastore. Next, make sure the container is running, the storage is...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Cavium Nitrox Security Processor Board GC-CN5690 CNN5560S-85 GC-CN5690 usefull for anything?.Cavium Nitrox is a line of security coprocessors. The only useful function their linux drivers expose is cryptographic acceleration, so if you're building a "high performance" vpn appliance it COULD be useful (I put high performance in quotes...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Western Digital Red NAS SATA SSDs - High latency.Not just terrible. likely defective. did you run a smart long test?
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread iSCSI SAN Configuration.I've used those before. What I recommend to make your life easier is to create a separate vlan per interface, and match them on the initiators. I'd leave the vlans on separate class C's so you dont inadvertently create conflicting routes. I...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread iSCSI SAN Configuration.whats the storage device in question? what is their documentation say with regards to best practices?

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread [TUTORIAL] FabU: can I use Ceph in a _very_ small cluster?.There is no "migration" with only three nodes. the "3" in your crush rule refers to how many copies on individual nodes that have to exist in order to have a healthy pg (placement group.) the number of OSDs dont matter in this context- you can...
