    Hmm, in the order of magnitude of things, that's not a thing anymore. AMD for example can give incentive to vendors for that to disappear. The biggest issue is on memory and flash disks. Cost went x3-x6 depending on your volume and regular...

    Well, I've seen happy users purchasing second hand Enterprise SSD/SAS disks. Would that work? Money is going to NVMe these days. I've seen Ceph from other vendors with bcache to paste both SSD and HDD. Haven't done it with PVE. On the other...

    Volume seems low, go with SAS/SSD or NVMe. Ceph per se doesn't do tiering.Unless you are able to do an educated placement of vdisks per pool per requirement, don't go with rotational disks.

    Will monitor and collect the evidence when/if it happens again.

    What I found: 1. Changes in reverse path filter behavior (8 to 9 or 9.0 to 9.1, couldn't tell). Fixed once, shouldn't repeat 2. East west traffic didn't work with some nodes or with specific segments or specific VMs. Happened several times. FRR...

    With EVPN/VLAN, mostly erratic forwarding.

    sure, I've setup LUNs in passthrough mode in the past. I would like to avoid the LVM-PV-for-multiple-LVs route since the storage snapshots cannot be used. I understand the single LUN + LVM value in some scenarios though.

    the VLAN SDN zone already does the clusterwide syncing heavyweight lifting. nothing stops you from creating a script that polls VLAN list from the external source and uses native CLI tooling to add VLAN entries. Then, cron is your friend :)

    That's an oddball. I have several doubts on option 1. Go with option 2 out of the two. With 1GbE, I would separate management to avoid losing access when a workload misbehaves. Also, take into account that VM migrations will probably saturate...

    Found several instances (in 8.* and 9.1) with unstable SDN environment. Updated my environments to 9.2, hope it gets better. Born from the troubleshooting session: https://github.com/ciroiriarte/pve-tools/blob/master/pve-sdn-healthcheck Hope it...

    I'm working on a CLI tool (very early stages) to remotely interact with PVE and PDM, is anybody interested in something like this?, would love to receive some feedback: https://github.com/ciroiriarte/pve-cli
