    Can you share your "/etc/pve/storage.cfg" ? Also, what is serving your iSCSI? Finally, what version of PVE are you running: pveversion -v Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox - https://www.blockbridge.com/proxmox

    Hi @powersupport , Would you clarify your setup for me? You moved from local SSD to NFS hosted in a VM on ESX backed by spinning rust? At the very least, I’d suggest starting your fio testing inside the ESX VM. Your VM configuration file shows a...

    Hi @Amila, welcome to the forum. To receive an official response from Proxmox GmbH, you should contact them directly via shop.proxmox.com. That said, your proposed architecture looks fine. Proxmox GmbH will likely support it as far as PVE is...

    It should start. Likely will be ok, as much as it can be on 7yo pc no, you should not run into issues. But if you were to use some other ARCH than host, you could. The 7yo PC will not support CPU commands introduced in younger generations. Use...

    Hi @Raja Sekhar , welcome to the forum. The best way to achieve your goal, based only on the information you supplied, is to use NFS over raw block SAN. Things become somewhat complicated if you are unable to use NFS. The standard use-case for...

    Hi @Henry Wong , welcome to the forum. The first thing to try would be to roll back your Openwrt change. You've changed a portion of your network infrastructure and the remaining part appears to have been cut off. There is much more information...

    If you presented the two MSA LUNs to all nodes, you have the basics of shared storage in place. However, you used wrong LVM type - LVM-thin is not compatible with multi-writer scheme that is needed by "shared storage". Once you have wiped your...

    A number of issues with similar symptoms that were reported recently end up being incomplete/failed upgrades. Please take a look at a few recent threads for advice on how to force-reinstall the packages. Other than that, outputs of the following...

    bbgeek17 replied to the thread ESXi VM migration method.
    VMDK is a proprietary format. The open-source community has made efforts to enable migration from VMDK, but there’s no incentive to make it perform as efficiently in non-ESXi environments, it’s likely not possible to match native ESXi...
