    @alexskysilk You're right to call that out. "Very small environments" was a poor choice of words on my part. The distinction I was trying to make isn't about node count, it's about business value. We have customers running three node clusters...

    We're definitely at cross purposes here. Highly available storage <> highly available applications. And striving to have an infrastructure that delivers both is not a bad thing at all.

    Hi @RoxyProxy, Since questions around pricing, company future, and so on came up, we felt it was appropriate to chime in. First, we'd like to thank the Blockbridge customers earlier in the thread for sharing their thoughts. To be honest...

    Good luck. It is a hard problem to solve, especially if there are FC switches involved - the SAN view can become skewed. Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared storage for Proxmox - https://www.blockbridge.com/proxmox

    Hi @nvanaert , There's quite a bit to unpack here. First and foremost, Proxmox VE does not monitor storage or network path health. An All Paths Down (APD) condition will not result in a node fence, nor does it interact with the VM HA subsystem...

    Hi @katti , currently there is no PVE mechanism that would synchronously or asynchronously replicate your volumes between the site when LVM is involved. You either need to move replication down the stack (into the underlying storage /SAN) or up...

    Thank you for the update @rodfranck , this will be very useful for the community. When a disk is reused and the underlying storage returns stale data in places where the OS or application expects zeroed blocks, it can lead to unexpected and...

    Are you referring to community maintained helper scripts that are not part of official Proxmox channel? You should not run 3rd party scripts that force you to use root if nobody on your team can understand/troubleshoot them. At the very least...

    Before following @fstrankowski advice, perhaps you can articulate what "custom attribute" means for you. There are already Tags one can apply to a VM. You can also add Notes that support MarkDown. Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME shared...

    Hi @mister_x , welcome to the forum. I presume you do not have subscription at the moment, in that case you should leave the PVE enterprise as disabled (as you have now) or remove it completely. You said you do not have VPN. You may want to...

    Hi @ajpion , welcome to the forum. The system (Linux or Windows) allows for one default gateway. Any gateway beyond default one are not default by definition and need to be scoped for a particular subnet) destination. If your client and storage...

    bbgeek17 replied to the thread NetApp ONTAP deploy support.
    Hi @mbaltera , welcome to the forum. There is no configuration option you can change as PVE does not use LIBVERT. The deploy tool should be talking PVE API, not underlying hypervisor (QEMU/KVM). Cheers Blockbridge : Ultra low latency all-NVME...

    Get a backup first, then see if there are any available BIOS/firmware updates. Even if there are not, what you posted should not bother you too much. With the large amount of 3rd and 4th tier hardware out there, backed by generic BMC software -...

    Hi @CptnBlues63 , Keep in mind that this is not PVE specific, but rather generic Linux administration. Any publicly available resource can generically guide through this with sufficiently detailed prompt. At a high level, either remove the...
