Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox not reaching the Idrac R750 to get to the web GUI.Generally speaking, your idrac interface (physical or shared) will NOT be visible to the host operating system. Treat it like a separate computer. Now that we got that out of the way, what are you actually trying to do?
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Physical Server Migration.This isnt really a pve question. Also, I would strongly advise taking this opportunity to migrate your mail server to a currently supportable environment- mail is one of the most obvious places for external attack after all. Luckily for you...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox user base seems rather thin?.For you- sure. for me- I dont have this hardware or this problem, so its not useful to me nor am I able to participate in the troubleshooting. Please be sure to post any solution you uncover. that is, as you pointed out, the point and nature of...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Write amplification for OS only drives, zfs vs btrfs.me? I'm not really aware of any ;) careful with jumping to conclusions. in all seriousness, technology isnt static. a lot of the issues present in earlier/older flash chips and controllers have been mitigated over the years. and wouldnt apply...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox user base seems rather thin?.You already found the answer. the fact you're moving the goalposts isnt helping you. I'd advise to get rid of your "wants"- the newer kernel is probably providing you with no utility at all. Given that the issues with your NIC are known and...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox user base seems rather thin?.out of curiosity, what was the vexing question you asked that had no results on the internet?

Like.
U = FOS Lots of us here are in tech-support related positions, so forum support gets to seem like "more work" after a while. A) Watch proxmox-related youtube videos B) Read the last 30 days of forum posts, here and on Reddit (free education)... -
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Write amplification for OS only drives, zfs vs btrfs.Just to put things in perspective, I have nodes running on consumer level OS ssds for OVER 10 YEARS, and that's without local log prevention. as long as you're not comingling payload and OS even crappy old drives dont get enough writes for it to...
-
AYou will only lose the affected PGs and their objects. This will lead to corrupted files (when the data pool is affected) or a corrupted filesystem (if the metadata pool is affected). Depending on which directory is corrupted you may not be able...
-
AAlso of note you’d have to lose the 2 OSD at the same time…after one drops Ceph will immediately copy those PG to other OSDs. On the same node if you have only 3. This also means you need the capacity to handle that.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Ceph Storage question.no. if you lose three disks on three separate nodes AT THE SAME TIME, the pool will become read only and you'll lose all payload that had placement group with shards on ALL THREE of those OSDs. BUT here's the thing- the odds of that happening...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Write amplification for OS only drives, zfs vs btrfs.Might not be an obvious question, but why? your OS needs are pretty meagre, and disk performance will have little (if any) impact on your vms. The only real consumer of iops are the logs, and if you are really concerned with write endurance...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread PVE 8.x Cluster Setup of shared LVM/LV with MSA2060.Generally speaking you wont get much benefit from more than two host connections to a node (one per controller,) but it is conceivable you would be able to consume more then 25gbit on a single host under which case you will want to ensure that...
-
AHi @daus2936 , your question was: The title of the documentation page provided by @alexskysilk is: Set up the multipath.conf file in E-Series - Linux (iSCSI) It is very succinct and states: No changes to /etc/multipath.conf are required. It...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread !! Voting for feature request for zfs-over-iscsi Storage !!.Thats an interesting take. For someone who derides others for being fanboys, that statement shows an astounding lack of self awareness. ceph is a scaleout filesystem with multiple api ingress points. zfs is a traditional filesystem and not...
-
AWell..., a RAID10 (with two vdev) will give you double the IOPS of a single RaidZ vdev. If this is relevant depends on your use case - and the specific test you run to check the behavior.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread I recommend between 2 solutions.This is a big pet peeve for me. you dont LOSE anything. you write things multiple times so you can lose a disk and continue functioning. It is irrational to think you get to use 100% of the available disk AND handle its failure. All fault...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread NetApp & ProxMox VE.you could, you know, read the docs. https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/e-series/config-linux/iscsi-setup-multipath-conf-file-concept.html
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Best practices for host + cluster organization, two DCs.Based on your original criteria- why bother clustering anything at all? Since it appears all you're really after is a single pane of glass- leave them all as standalone servers and use PDM for the control plane. Clustering makes sense when you...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread !! Voting for feature request for zfs-over-iscsi Storage !!.that depends on how you dice the data. If a "pve admin" is just the infrastructure admin, storage is provided by the storage team. if its a home user, not sure that what they recognize is of particular importance. Not from my viewpoint- these...
