I'm RMAing these. I've got four 860 Pros in the box still I'm going to slap in for now instead. What a pain in the rear.

Thanks for this. Yeah I know... It's just amazing to me that a WD BLUE is out performing a "NAS" drive. It makes no sense to me.

Heeelllpppp :D Please don't ask me to throw away these drives...

Bumps are allowed, right?

Hello All, I've been getting the infamous warning about slow reads and ops on bluestore but only from these two (my NEWEST SSDs). OSD 7 and OSD 2 are 4TB WD Red NAS SATA SSDs. The rest are a mix of Kingston DC SATA SSDs and Samsung 860 Pros @ 2TB. This is causing IO delays. Yes before I get...

Hello, I'm seeing 0.033x per second input discards on all my nodes in the cluster with a random jump to 0.1 per second. Its constant over the last 400 days of monitoring in check_mk and I see the same thing on the hypervisors. I've upp'd RX and TX to 4096 on all node. Unifi AGG switches...

Last night I moved all my data off the spinning disks, blew away the spinning disk pools, spent several hours troubleshooting random weird problems. After finally getting everything going zapping and wiping the spinning discs and re-adding them I'm having a tremendous performance improvement...

restarting pveproxy fixed it for only a few moments. The data was gone with the next refresh...

and for the record, there ARE PGs and pools created....

Hello again... decided to BLOW AWAY all spinning disks from my cluster -> seemed to be working okay except for the summary page... its completely blank. it shows 0 OSDs it shows blank pgs it shows no data about cluster activity... Reboot the ENTIRE cluster (full shutdown) and its still...

Hello There, I've had a cluster running since 2016 and been upgrading storage. The SSD pool has been excellent since day one but my spinning disks are causing me some serious headaches. My largest drives are two 14TB WDC WD140EDFZ. These are almost ALWAYS at 250MS. They are on the same HBA as...

Here is what I setup (removed others). Keep in mind the spice section is minimal as I've been troubleshooting this: ##### /etc/nginx/nginx.conf ##### user www-data; worker_processes auto; pid /run/nginx.pid; include /etc/nginx/modules-enabled/*.conf; events { worker_connections 1024; } http {...
