    alexskysilk replied to the thread Windows 11 VM.
    to simplify- v3=v2+avx2 (which windows11 kernel makes actual use of, and the official installer will fail if hardware support isnt present) Your experience with host cpu type leading to poorer performance has to do with the division of P+E cores...

    alexskysilk replied to the thread Windows 11 VM.
    Windows 11 needs a minimum cpu type of x86-64-v3, although with a proper modern cpu just choose host. V3 should only be used with specific generation hardware (Haswell/broadwell) or in a heterogeneous cluster.

    alexskysilk replied to the thread The RAID1 boot volume is missing,but the host is still running from RAM. How can I reinstall PVE without losing the VMs on a separate LVM-thin volume?.
    Yes. you're not missing anything. Yes. its safe even if the node name DIDNT match. if you have any outside services that actively used ssh to connect to the node, it may be better for it NOT to have the same name as before. Yes. shut them down...

    If you had asked that first we could have saved the entire thread :) you know the answer. why bother with the rest of the conversation? As to why- ask your suppliers. You're in the wrong forum- Nutanix is that way.

    see https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage_Replication Possible- yes, but not in the way you're thinking. install all 4 drives in one machine. You're already doing this with your old dell tower. as an aside, concatenating disks (just adding two...

    alexskysilk replied to the thread HA Enterpise.
    short answer- yes. longer answer- Proxmox doesnt provide a CAF the way vmware does, which means the workflow will be different. the SAN vendors arent "refusing" to directly support Proxmox, and many already provide documentation on usage within...

    Good news here; while I dont know if there is official plugin available, quts is just linux, the storage fairly plain zfs, and the target is SCST target which the pve provided zfs-over-iscsi plugin supports.

    alexskysilk replied to the thread HA Enterpise.
    ZFS offers the same disk aggregation functionality as a SAN; edit zfs is a disk aggregation mechanism. SAN is a multi initiator storage router. You will need exactly the same number of drives at the same replication or parity levels. In fact...

    Rampocalypse is universal. You either accept the new cost of doing business or hold on to your old equipment for as long as you can. I'm doing the latter where I can ;) Ironically, for the most part, customers only really need to upgrade because...

    In the enterprise, Uhh.... you might want to have a conversation with Blockbridge before you make that assumption. Pretty sure they dont give out their product for free. The other thing you might want to consider is that disks is just a portion...

    sure- the implication isnt that it doesnt work, its that its slow and painful.

    alexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox 9 boot issues.
    hardware issue, yes- but not in the sense that anything is defective. searching the forum brings up https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/pbs-failure-with-kernel-7-0.183853/ Which doesnt have a known working solution. If you want to keep running...

    alexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox Storage Recovery Challenge: Help Us Design a Realistic Data Loss Experiment.
    Ambitious. While I wont comment on the business case for this, point 5 is probably the most marketable. If you can already reconstruct a file from txg history without a snapshot marker and without needing to make a full static ddimage to...

    alexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox Storage Recovery Challenge: Help Us Design a Realistic Data Loss Experiment.
    I think you're going about this the wrong way. the payload of virtualization or standalong filesystem are not materially different. when I fire up testdisk on a block device, it doesnt care whether its a fileset of naked pictures or a root linux...

    alexskysilk replied to the thread Proxmox 9 boot issues.
    your root partition is on a disk that is experiencing problems- either hardware, cabling, or software. smartctl --test=long /dev/[path to your root device) dmesg | grep [your root device]

    alexskysilk replied to the thread Migrate to a new cluster.
    yeah I dont see anything in those links to suggest difficulty. and the only thing that changes for local vm migration is that the target will have to be on a clustered storage- which is still easiest handled via storage migration in cluster.

    alexskysilk replied to the thread Clarification on ZFS Encryption at Rest – Proxmox VE 9.2.3.
    Yes, in the sense this is a feature that has a procedure to function in a linux system. If you specify By WHOM, you'd know who to ask specifically. If you mean per the Proxmox zfs on PVE pages, its "experimental" in the sense it is not within...

    alexskysilk replied to the thread Migrate to a new cluster.
    This is the way. You can do this but it serves no real purpose; the storage is shared. Curious- what is the friction? adding and removing nodes is straight forward.

    alexskysilk replied to the thread Single flapping corosync link caused a node to fence itself. Is knet link_mode active the right fix?.
    link_mode: active means all corosync traffic- checksums, encrypt, decrypt, etc- happens twice. It is not insignificant. You CAN utilize that to protect against the symptom you describe, but its a rather heavy solution for a transient problem that...
