    Running scripts before and after a back job for a specific vm in Proxmox VE

    Hi there, I am seeking for advice on how to stop a service prior to a backup job (PBS is used for backup) and start it afterwards. I'd like to accomplish this from the Proxmox host as opposed to from inside the VM itself. (as in coordinating the schedules of the script's and backup job's start...

    2 Node Cluster w/ Shared Disc

    Just out of curiosity, how big of a difference would it make if I use HDD instead of SSD for the CEPHFS? I intend to use enterprise grade HDDs.

    2 Node Cluster w/ Shared Disc

    Thank you. It will explore NFS (or CIFS), though lack of snapshot support is a bummer. I guess I may also go for CEPHFS, which checks all the boxes, but it seems that I would need to acquire decent SSDs for this solution to work well enough, based of the Proxmox docs.

    I was under the impression that Proxmox cluster storage had something similar to Hyper-V Cluster Shared Volume (CSV) where all nodes can access the iscsi resource at the same time. Truenas for instance, offer Cluster Aware Iscsi service (as most DELL, Lenovo Storage servers, as well as Starwind...

    2 Node Cluster w/ Shared Disc

    Thank you bbgeek17 for all your answers. Given the feedback, I have decided use a third node, a small VM on Truenas to run as Quorum vote device, which should eliminate the need for the iscsi based quorum disc...

    2 Node Cluster w/ Shared Disc

    Hi there, I am relatively new to Proxmox clustering. I am trying to setup a 2 node cluster with a shared (iscsi from a Truenas Scale). This is a v 7.2.3 setup. 1. I added iscsi resources (100 MB for Quorum and 14 TB for VMs and ISO files) from the Truenas to both nodes under the...
