    I don't think this thread is about the session timeout. It's the fact that PVE uses SMB connect/teardown as a means to probe/healthcheck the CIFS storage. https://github.com/proxmox/pve-storage/blob/master/src/PVE/Storage/CIFSPlugin.pm#L271...

    Hi @macmino, There are a few possible approaches here: Enable/disable the storage as needed. If it’s strictly used for backups, this might be sufficient, though I haven’t personally tested it (see man pvesm). Follow the workaround mentioned in...

    Makes sense. In that case you can use LACP on storage and host side. Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox - https://www.blockbridge.com/proxmox

    bbgeek17 replied to the thread Proxmox with FC LUN.
    Hi @markeczzz . Yes, you can use the same hardware with PVE. It should be very stable, assuming there’s nothing unusual in your specific infrastructure. The best practices are essentially the same as with any FC-based setup: dual HBAs, dual...

    bbgeek17 replied to the thread iSCSI Networking confusion.
    Hi @tmerrill , welcome to the forum. This is the key to your question. Does the above mean that switches are not MLAG connected? A single VLAN that spans two isolated switches? You can take a look at this article...

    bbgeek17 replied to the thread Storage for production cluster.
    Hi @JonesHerbet, welcome to the forum. Since you’re looking to refresh your infrastructure, it’s worth taking a step back and considering a more comprehensive update. Replacing HDDs with NVMe is a good start. You should also review your network...

    Sounds like something that would be perpetuated by a storage vendor who couldn't figure out how to build a good iSCSI stack and/or support an LACP bond :-) Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox -...

    If this was my environment, I were limited in number of NICs that could be added to the host, and I was not looking to create a one-of-the-kind config, I would: - MLAG the network switches - configure LACP across the switches (either with MTU...

    The storage content required for Containers is "rootdir". Not all supported storage pool types support all content types. For example, raw iSCSI storage (Block) does not support Snippets or ISO. The built-in iSCSI type also does not support...

    You have an L2/L3/L4 issue, not L7. If nothing else changes - it will not make a difference whether you use NFS or iSCSI. Were you also running a hypervisor and placing the VMs on this host at the same time? Blockbridge : Ultra low latency...

    Very convoluted! I'll give it a try one day out of curiosity but would not want to troubleshoot something like this in production... Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox - https://www.blockbridge.com/proxmox

    I don't think its a valid config. You may be able to assign an IP to a NIC that is part of the Bridge, but you definitely can't assign IP to a NIC that is part of a Bond. Your VLAN would need to sit on the Bond, but if each switch is handling...

    You can. it works. Its a bad idea, but it can be done. (as an aside, its a bad idea on vmware too; iscsi interfaces dont like to share the link.) the interfaces would look like this: iface nic0 inet manual mtu 9000 iface nic1 inet...

    Thank you very much!!! Hopefully the Proxmox team will notice and correct this as soon as possible. However, for now I have been advising all partners to uncheck this option, at least for the time being, in potential installations to avoid problems.

    I had a "bright" idea to take a look at the code and the cause seems "simple" enough: https://github.com/proxmox/pve-common/blob/master/src/PVE/Network.pm#L691 my @ifaces = (); my $dir = "/sys/class/net/$bridge/brif"...
  • bbgeek17
    based on OP's description I don't see a reason for iSCSI traffic to ever be generated from 10/20/30 or passed to 100/101. So I do not think this would come up as an issue. I also do not see where OP mentions using Bond. It seems to me they have...

    You could try to pass-through a direct LUN to the VM to get an idea about some baseline. Blockbridge: Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox - https://www.blockbridge.com/proxmox

    Hi @pavlos , this is because you have not purchased support subscription and are not authorized to connect to ENTERPRISE.proxmox.com. Follow the steps to disable the Enterprise repo and to enable the no-subscription repo...

    bbgeek17 replied to the thread Entire cluster rebooted.
    As @leesteken pointed out, if the network handling Corosync fails long enough, each node becomes isolated from the others and loses quorum. To avoid a split-brain situation (i.e., node1 attempting to recover services that are still running on...

    bbgeek17 replied to the thread I cannot connect to the WebUI.
    Hi @naxiu , There are no wide-spread reports in the forum of web UI instability . There are occasional reports, such as yours, and in 99.9% of cases they are caused/resolved by: a) reconfiguring the smart-home routers , ie changing the DHCP...
