    Use SAN to create shared storage.

    If you mean empty hard drive slots in the SAN, then yes, we have 6 open slots.

    Adding to a 2 server cluster: Waiting for quorum... Timed-out waiting for cluster

    I think that's the problem. All of the servers are connected to 4 different vlans. I want the cluster to be on the management lan 10.10.40.*, like strongest and bolivar. However, it took the 10.10.10.* ip by default. Is there a way to define the ip you want the server to use when adding it...

    [CRITICAL] Huge IO load causes freezing during backups

    answered my own question. To Migrate by hand. 1. Shut Down VM 2. transfer image file to new server 3. In gui create container, with identical info to the one you just stopped 4. Copy File to the new image file location, or if using a san, use dd to copy the image to the san. 5. Turn on the new vm.

    [CRITICAL] Huge IO load causes freezing during backups

    Is there a work around for this? I'm having the same issue. I run vzdump to migrate a kvm or vz container, and sometimes the io load spikes, then the server hangs. The only way I fix it is to restart the server, thus bringing down my production environment. I'm trying to migrate virtual...

    VM reboot: mount you must specify the filesystem type kernel panic

    I couldn't find a way to repair it. I ultimately rebuilt the server from scratch, and other backups I had.
