Long story short, I updated to the latest kernel and after reboot the server took a long time to boot and the network was down. In the logs I had the message: sr0: Worker [1402] processing SEQNUM=7997 is taking a long time ifupdown2-pre.service: Main process exited, code=exited...

You should consider installing a Proxmox single node cluster on the physical machine and run PFSense only virtualized. In this way you just have to replicate the VM to the other cluster or periodic restore from a share a common Proxmox Backup Server or backup location. Instead of 5 network card...

Hello, hello, I just got informed that: What do you think is the reason here? Is Ceph not worth it? In the long run it works just fine to have ZFS with replication every 5 minutes all over the place? Maybe it's more cost effective and less complex. Looking forward for your opinion, Thank...

Hi Eric, Just use ZFS and make sure to set the same storage name on both servers, for example 'local-zfs'. You will setup replication between the node and the migration will be a breeze. Bye, Rares

I use https://puppylinux.com/ . You can also run it as Live CD without install.

Hi, The mount point, the /data folder, will be always as root. Crete a subfolder like /data/gitlab with the right permissions and set that subfolder as data folder for GitLab. Rares

Hi Ph0x, How do you do this? Do you have other alternative then MCLAG? Thank you, Rares

You pfSense VM will have 2 virtual nics attached for WAN and LAN. 1. If you have multiple ports you can put a port in a separated bridge and assign that WAN interface to that bridge. 2. You could consider having a managed switch and set the vlan id on the WAN interface.

Could redirecting the root mailbox to a script be a more simpler solutions? Something like: https://serverfault.com/questions/506894/how-to-route-email-to-a-script

Thank you Wolfgang for the reply. My question was if there are any benefits in using ntpd instead of systemd-timesyncd? Also do you think that having a local ntp server would improve the stability of the cluster? Yould you invest in a local GPS controlled dedicated NTP server device...

Hi, After an "apt upgrade" and reboot I got in cehp "cluster [WRN] 1 clock skew 0.131975s > max 0.05s". Indeed after 2 minutes the error dissapear from ceph dashboard. Reading more I found: systemd-timesyncd does no clock discipline: the clock is not trained or compensated, and internal...

How do you get DHCP if the servers are connected one to another? I assume that you have a 3rd interface for connecting to the network and Internet. Install Proxmox on each server individually and connect them after that. Follow this setup...

Try with something like this: ceph osd dump | grep ^osd.37 lsblk

Do you have a separated/multiple network for corosync? Do you have a congestion on the network? Do you combine storage with corosync network? What connections/capacity do you have between nodes?
