    host node firewalling? (question for proxmox themselves mainly)

    just a note you dont need a bridge for the raw host access, you can just leave it as eth0.1+eth1.1 ---> bond0 and iptables restrict on bond0 device note you would have to either not assign an IP for vmbr1 or manually reconfigure pveproxy server to only listen on the IP assigned to bond0/vmbr0

    OpenVPN bridge in KVM

    i run openvpn inside kvm vm's no problems and no major packet loss to report (at least not due to openvpn) remember that default openvpn goes over UDP so if the network between your 2 machines is bad then you will get packet loss, for more unreliable networks you might consider switching to TCP...

    Server Recommendations for 100+ users on Proxmox VE

    VMBR is only needed if you are using KVM VM's if you are just using OpenVZ containers its not required if you have shorewall on the host and both the external IP's on the host - you will have to configure your VM's with internal IP's that the hostnode can ping (you may have to set an internal...

    Proxmox High Availability Cluster

    agreed but for a quick and dirty test, i think you can setup a pseudo fencing device in the cluster config that doesnt do anything but allows the rest of the cluster actions to work, then you can just pull the power from the node running the VM and watch proxmox cluster on one of the other hosts
