gurubert replied to the thread tips for shared storage that 'has it all' :-).AFAIK NetApp has one of the fastest and most stable NFS server implementation in the industry. If you already have that I would definitely run some benchmarks on it. -

Like.
Ceph is the only "all features" supported shared solution easily available for PVE. Its also the most heavily worked on for other Virt platforms such as XCP-NG and various flavors of kvm. Your decision tree going forward heavily depends on WHY... -
gurubert replied to the thread Establishing Proxmox VE as a Cross-Platform Hypervisor with Full RHEL/EL9 Ecosystem Support.And RedHat already has a virtualization offering for their enterprise customers. I doubt that anybody really entrenched into the "Enterprise" RHEL ecosystem is looking elsewhere.

Most large organizations treat Proxmox VE in terms of accrediation/ATO as an appliance. Since PVE is a hypervisor platform. It's NOT meant to directly run workloads. Workloads are done via VMs/LXCs. Same with PBS & PDM. It's treated as an...

Feature requests should be filed on bugzilla.proxmox.com since there is no guarantee the developers will read everything on the forum. On Bugzilla however any new issue is read by a staff member. Now I'm not part of the team but a fellow...

gurubert reacted to TheAncientMariner's post in the thread Should redundant corosync links be on seperate VLAN? with Like.
Sorry for necroposting but I want to add some considerations for anyone stumbling onto this thread in the future: Physical redundancy/separation (separate NICs, cables, switches etc.) is probably the most important part of a redundant cluster...

gurubert reacted to EllerholdAG's post in the thread Missing feature: Show free internal diskspace of VM with Like.
Using something like zabbix or checkmk is obviously better, because with them you can monitor VMs of other hypervisors too and even physical machines. They too cache the last seen value, so even if the VM is offline you can still see if the VM...

gurubert reacted to proxuser77's post in the thread Missing feature: Show free internal diskspace of VM with Like.
Which means that, if I understand this correctly, vSphere couldn't do it either, and you had to use a third-party tool to achieve what you wanted. ;) If we now apply this logic to Proxmox, for which we have already established that the QEMU...

gurubert reacted to Johannes S's post in the thread Missing feature: Show free internal diskspace of VM with Like.
How do you monitor the availability and function of the services running inside the vm? For this you need a dedicated monitoring software anyhow. I'm really baffled, are there seriously professional IT-departments without a dedicated...

gurubert reacted to EllerholdAG's post in the thread Missing feature: Show free internal diskspace of VM with Like.
PVE cannot determine the free disk space inside the VM from the outside easily. It would have to detect and parse the disk partition table and then read the filesystem metadata. This stuff is trivial inside the VM, because there you have all the...

gurubert reacted to Johannes S's post in the thread Missing feature: Show free internal diskspace of VM with Like.
Use a monitoring tool like Zabbix, Icinga, Prometheus or prtg. I'm a bit baffled that somebody could do twenty years without it. I couldn't do my work without the monitoring and alarming features of a Icinga since the Hypervisor ( no matter which...

gurubert reacted to beisser's post in the thread Cluster total ausfallsicher gegen Brand etc. with Like.
es hängt natürlich immer davon ab, welche grössenordnung von katastrophe man kompensieren möchte. das geht über mehrere serverräume in einem gebäude in mehreren brandabschnitten über mehrere gebäude auf dem selben gelände, mehrere gebäude in...

Nein. Beachte bitte die Fußnote 3. Es funktioniert hervorragend, ein shared Block Storage (wie gesagt, mache ich auf einer 3par über FC) an mehrere Hosts zu präsentieren. Das wird hier im Forum auch von verschiedenen anderen Teilnehmern (z.B...

So hätte ich das (als Ceph-Laie) nicht formuliert. Das, was Ceph unbedingt braucht, ist ein schnelles Netz - oder auch zwei. Und zwar idealerweise ein separates. Für mich hört sich das echt nach Storage-Area-Network an ;-)

gurubert reacted to Johannes S's post in the thread OCFS2(unsupported): Frage zu Belegung with Like.
Naja Ceph ist ja ein verteiltes System, was darauf ausgelegt ist aus zig Servern und in ihnen verbauten Platten/SSDs einen gemeinsamen Storage zu bauen. Das skaliert extrem ( je mehr Knoten und je mehr Platten desto bessere Performance), ist...

at the end it's a Proxmox Perl API the storage vendor has to use ... https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage_Plugin_Development

Hi, this will only work if your Storage/SAN vendor will provide/support/develop a native Proxmox integration via a Proxmox Storage Plugin .... would ask your vendor

gurubert replied to the thread Hostname cloud-init.We also use cloud-init and have no issues. The hostname was always set to the name of the VM. But we use an FQDN as VM name.
-
Firstly always regenerate the cloud-init image upon VM creation. (GUI). Secondly I remember reading once that sometimes a FQDN can effect cloud-init in correctly configuring the hostname. So that FQDN (incorrect) you have: try changing to...
