No, haven't found a solution for this. Switching to LXD inside my VMs now and will keep using Proxmox on my hardware nodes.

Because I have ~1000 containers in total (10 of the described VMs with 100 containers) and also ~15 KVM VMs for database and other stuff on a 3 node cluster. I don't want to mix 1000 containers with 15 VMs on 3 hosts.

Hi community, First some context: I'm running a KVM VM with CentOS 6 and OpenVZ Kernel on a Proxmox cluster for several years. There are 100 OpenVZ containers inside the VM. Each container is very similar, hosting mainly Apache and Asterisk. Everything is calm. The VM has 4 CPU cores, only uses...

I think you are right. Quorum will be a problem with two DCs. I will reconsider my setup. Thanks for your input. Its very helpful to me!

Hi all, I'm interested in building a geo redundant cluster that makes container migration/failover from one physical location to another possible. Working with two separated locations introduces limitations and I'm trying to figure out if a proxmox cluster can be deployed in this situation...

Thats great. Thanks Dietmar!

I'm interested in deploying a Proxmox cluster with HA option enabled. Is that possible with Ceph as storage option? In the wiki i read NFS storage is a must for Proxmox HA.

Thanks! Yes, looks like you can do it with iptables and ebtables. However the libvirt filter seems to be the most sophisticated approach.

I'm looking for the same thing. Would love to see it in proxmox.

Ah, I see! I think now I have every information needed to get my hands on the system. I will set it up just as discussed here. One last thing to say: I'm very impressed of the PVE project. I want to thank the developers for the great software and the community their nice help. I believe PVE...

Let's see if I understand correctly: On the host system I mount, let's say, 20 GB of memory from the SAN, activate LVM and install my VMs (OS + Software) there. Then I go to the Mail-Server-VM and mount 3 TB of memory from the SAN on i. e. /mnt/mailstore. There I put my mail-data. Correct?

Udo, thanks a lot. Your answer is very helpful for me. Without a cluster filesystem my scenario gets much less complex. Good for me! One last question got in my mind concerning the mail server. I wonder if I should create a VM with > 3 TB of storage, or if I should create a small VM with only...

bohansen, thank you for answering my first question! I think using local storage with DRBD instead of a central SAN storage is not a good idea for me. I would like to be able to scale. Maybe I will need more servers very quickly. So question number two still exists :).

Hi all, I haven't used PVE so far but it looks like the perfekt solution for me. I have two servers and a storage with 5 TB and fiber channel connection. I want to run 3 KVM machines on one of the servers. The second server should be the backup for the primary server in case there is a...
