Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Ceph with 2 Cluster Networks.rather then quoting, I'll try to address all possible alternatives. ceph carries traffic on two seperate networks- public (host) and private (OSD-to-OSD.) Think of this as the host bus and disk bus on a RAID subsystem. While you can have both...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread new drive setup, considering RAIDZ1.up to you how you manage your models. in my experience, new models are released every week and I dont bother keeping the old ones. Feel free to keep your hoarded models on the zpool. its not like its getting any use ;)
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread new drive setup, considering RAIDZ1.keep those on the nvme. they dont need any resilience, and you're likely to be replacing them quite often anyway.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread new drive setup, considering RAIDZ1.so yes :) l2arc almost never yields useful results. you're better off just using the drive seperately. More to the point- what is your usecase? in a homelab, its common that your bulk storage can be slow without any real impact. put your...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread IBM Plugin.IBM Storage arrays can be one of many different solutions/topologies. It would be useful to mention what model/topology product you're referring to. Having said that- it most likely is a block device so yes, lvm would still be necessary if you're...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread [SOLVED] Issue: Unable to reach Ceph after upgrade to Squid (19.2).Just mark the thread solved

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread [PVE 9/ZFS-Based VM/LXC Storage] Why Shouldn't I Disable Swap Inside Linux VMs?.zswap is great, but is no substitute for ram. if you are using a production environment (read: for money) just provision sufficient ram. yes its expensive, but its worth much more in consistent performance.

Aalexskysilk reacted to t.lamprecht's post in the thread Is there a mod repository ? How to make mods ? with
Like.
What are you talking about? All our code is fully open source, we encourage and support upstream contributions to actually make things better for all by default over some third party modification hacks. So posting fixes to our official submission... -
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Is there a mod repository ? How to make mods ?.where, pray tell, have I gotten in the way of such people? all I pointed out that you could already do what you asked.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Is there a mod repository ? How to make mods ?.That is as succinct a description of the problem as you or I have posited so far. You want a system in place provided by the devs, but when looking at what it would take you correctly (if hyperbolically) estimate the work as requiring a "sun...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread First Proxmox homelab build - sanity check on hardware, service layout, and storage.This is true, but neglects we're living in 2026. git clone my_container cd my_container docker compose up -d In context, the guest disks contains no relevent data, and are pointless to back up. When you have multiple guests accessing the same...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread First Proxmox homelab build - sanity check on hardware, service layout, and storage.In OPs case, many if not all the containers are accessing the same data, which would be passed as a mountpoint. It wouldnt really make sense to do that, since there's nothing to be gained backing up the container itself.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread First Proxmox homelab build - sanity check on hardware, service layout, and storage.When you say "mainstream advice" its good to note the background, reasoning, and authority of whoever you are quoting. In an enterprise environment with security policies, or on a dirty (shared) hypervisor the advice certainly applies- but its a...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread First Proxmox homelab build - sanity check on hardware, service layout, and storage.Before answering the question (its really just the one) I encourage you to really consider the implications of an all docker workload. docker images are immutable and live in a repo; the only things you MIGHT want to keep a copy of is the...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Is there a mod repository ? How to make mods ?.I dont really understand. What stops you from doing this? not a single one of your asks is necessary for the operation of a pve node or cluster, but a lot of what you ask (and some you didnt) is included by my general purpose post install script...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread First Proxmox homelab build - sanity check on hardware, service layout, and storage.You are asking a lot from a relatively modest host. its doable, but you'll need to temper your "performance" expectations. on that subject- That will multiply the "performance expectations issue" substantially. In addition, doing a passthrough...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Ram report issue to multiple Hosts.Virtualization makes the most sense when you use it to break down work into small chunks. Imagine trying to fit tetris pieces that are 4 squares, and then you have a piece that is 48 squares in size. If your use case is really that big, the only...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Hook Script to disable pbs storage.I'd consider this a bug. Please report it here: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Hook Script to disable pbs storage.pbs storage isnt like NFS; if its not present it will not hang your host. I would investigate your logs a bit more carefully to see what the actual culprit is- perhaps you have other items in /etc/fstab and/or /etc/pve/storage.cfg?
