Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Ceph constantly adding PG.check ceph balancer status. it probably increased the pg count from 256 to 512, and you're seeing it doing its thing in real time.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Storage: BTRFS vs ZFS vs plain EXT4 DM raid.This is true regardless of aggregation method (software/hardware.)
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Is anyone dynamically updating CRUSH rules to maintain storage/compute proximity in HCI setups?.That is correct, both in substance and meaning. PVE need not be involved. If you dont define one, you WILL have a default rule for single datacenter, triple replication with no device class. If you need to specify additional/different logic, yes...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread ServiceNow discovery.Welcome to the world of having a boss. Depending on your role, your job is to INFORM the decision makers or MAKE decisions. if you're in the former, voice your concern in writing and then do what is decided (and dont bitch! once the decision is...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread remote-migration fails between different Storage Backends.yeah I hear that. In truth, you already have PBS that could effectively serve the purpose anyway. and scripting it is trivial if the use case mandated it. Its not really a problem from my POV, more a curiousity.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread remote-migration fails between different Storage Backends.I mean, sure- I like efficiency too; but multi back end support is part of the PVE featureset. technically, anything that can be rendered out as bitmap (raw) can be compressed and sent anywhere. seems like an arbitrary limitation. anyone from the...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread remote-migration fails between different Storage Backends.Is it a matter of validation alone? it seems to me that the allocated size is available from vmid.conf, and on disk size is available using zfs get or blockdev... its trivial enough to pipe it manually using dd | ssh | rbd-import so I wonder why...

AThis is a question for your compliance and management team. There is no universal answer to your concern. Are you in Finance, Pharma, Defense, or is this a medium size SaaS business. There are many variables here. Sometimes an agent based...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Hypervisor node freezes completely during backup.exactly.

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Hypervisor node freezes completely during backup.You're likely starved for bandwidth. use rate limits to reduce the load. see https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-vzdump.html#_bandwidth_limit
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox / Ceph / Backups & Replica Policy.Again, PVE doesnt need to be involved. This is a matter of ceph configuration. You ARE running into the limitation of using a centrally managed ceph.conf, which adds a technical wrinkle. You would need to decouple the nodes individual ceph.conf...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread 2 Datacenters to 1.the point about the storage infrastructure is insidious. IF your target cluster is able to attach the storage for the source cluster, it is possible to do this without any data movement; simple MOVE the vmid.conf files to the other cluster. BUT...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox / Ceph / Backups & Replica Policy.This isnt a pve question. PVE doesnt do anything outside of what ceph can do. As long as you build your crush rule to do what you want, the client will respect it too. Assuming you have the following hierarchy: DC Node OSD you just need to...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Using ZFS commands inside LXC container.Bingo. why arent you using those?
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Using ZFS commands inside LXC container.Ignorance. although I usually leave room for the possibility the ignorance is mine. there is no more certainty in being wrong then not allowing for a different perspective. believing you're right and being, err, forceful about it says more about...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Using ZFS commands inside LXC container.I Imagine you're very popular with you peers. Why bother with a hypervisor then? just set up docker and linux and you're done...
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Using ZFS commands inside LXC container.I'm curious- what would be the use case for this? in my view containers exist to isolate an application from the underlying hardware. if a container has access it loses its purpose to exist.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Trying to install Proxmox in Parallels on MacBook Pro M1.Thats likely not solvable. while the parent hypervisor can emulate an x86 processor it cant provide services that the parent CPU doesnt have.
-
Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Can Proxmox use HDFS as a secondary datastore alongside LINSTOR? Would NFS Gateway work?.I cant speak for the idiosyncracies of hdfs, but the approach is supportable in general and raw/qcow2 over nfs is a first class citizen with PVE. Depending on the IOPs capabilities of the back end it may or may not be suitable for virtualization...

Aalexskysilk replied to the thread Replacement faulty HDD which is part of a ZFS data volume.If you're asking whether the claude provided steps are correct- they are, but I would make an adjustment to step 7- specify the destination drive by its uuid/blkid however relevent to how you defined your pool originally, not but drive letter. I...
