    Ceph Stretch cluster - Crush rules assistance

    I missed the reply, but.. I was indeed pinpointing the issue that could happen without the stretch mode enabled, as it was suggested as a workaround.. But yeah.

    Ceph stretch pools in squid

    ah, just read @ https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/rados/operations/stretch-mode/#individual-stretch-pools that netsplit cause IO block with individual stretch pool, so, not exactly the good usecase..

    Ceph stretch pools in squid

    Hi, Has anyone experimented with ceph stretch pools that seem to have appeared in squid? (not stretched clusters) It seems rather new, but rather interesting, as it may not require the whole cluster to be set to stretched, while still dealing with the guarantee of OSDs and monitors being on...

    Ceph Stretch cluster - Crush rules assistance

    Hmm.. what would your pools settings be then? 4/2 for the stretched one? Problem would be that you might end up with only one replica at the other DC there (so IO block until recovery?), unless you actually set it down to 4/1... Also, I may be wrong, but in that scenario, you could have...

    VM memory not ballooning?

    I guess you have enough RAM on the host to fulfill that RAM need? And that virtio_balloon is loaded on TrueNAS? (lsmod | grep virtio_balloon) Also, I'd give the VM a bit of swap, in case balloon deflation doesn't happen fast enough for process to get enough RAM... The "precise" number of 8G...

    Proxmox boot issue ( kernal panic )

    The linked articles suggests using zfs import as readonly to work around the bug/issue, maybe that can save you… It's a bit too precise / specific from this point for me to help you further…

    How do you restore VMs from a dead instance of proxmox

    Well, technically, it's a LV, yes, but it's not directly a mountable partition, it's a raw device, that has its own partition table and all (unless you used it directly as a filesystem, without a label nor a partition there…). So you *could* mount it, but it's not that simple. Also, it's...

    Backup vs RBD Export

    Is there anything classy you guys don't do hahah! That is impressive, I think one of you mentioned it @ FOSDEM now that I think of it..

    Cannot properly resize LXC volume

    Do you see the disk as having the good size in Proxmox GUI? (or using pvesm list VM-Import | grep ' 105$' ), What does the subvolume tell you, from the host? (zfs list testzfs/subvol-105-disk-0) It's indeed not normal for the container to not have been resized by the GUI process, it might be a...

    How do you restore VMs from a dead instance of proxmox

    Setup a VM with a live ISO to boot and inspect all disks, and if it's the same OS as your VM, you can even install grub from there. Say it's Ubuntu, boot it (or boot it live using netboot.xyz for even more fun! ;)), then check what lsblk has to say, then try mounting partitions in /mnt to find...

    Feature request: list all the backup available no matter where they are stored

    It's a good suggestion, maybe open a feature request on bugzilla?

    HA Proxmox VE

    Hi, @paulsk answered that nicely, I'd say! If you have further needs in term of load balancing, and don't want to wait for the upcoming CRS evolution, there is a nice tool that can help you load balance using live metrics: ProxLB ! As for the high CPU usage, I assume you have a lot of VMs /...

    Info Licenza a pagamento

    Hi, I don't speak Italian, but I'll take a guess… and answer in English. PBS is quite unique, and provide a full feature backup solution for your Proxmox Cluster. Developing and maintaining it so that it stays relevant and that feature full cost a lot more than for PVE, I guess. Also you...

    Proxmox boot issue ( kernal panic )

    Hi, This probably means your ZFS storage is corrupted… Or you hit a bug in zfs, or both. That issue was mentioned on Github. And the last comment points to a way to recover the data, but for a truenas scale install, not proxmox. However, I'm guessing it could be useful, or even work in your case.

    High IO Delay and Unable to Login via Web Interface

    Hi, try to get an idea of what is causing the IO delay? iostat or atop should at least tell you which devices are in troubles, and what processes are impacted (though… it's probably VMs ;)) If you have another monitoring tool up, try to get insight there… And you can also use SMART to get some...
