Thank you @UdoB for the reply. That is what I estimated. As I am booting from the rpool I will go the more secure "long-night-way" with a fresh installation on the new ZFS RAID10 and then restoring the VMs from my backups.
Good advice. As I am...
Hi, seems like the storage the ISO is located on is not online/reachable. In order to backup a stopped VM, the VM will have to be started (in a frozen state), meaning however all the attached disks are expected to be present.
So either you...
Hi, @hiper
Is it a Windows file explorer (or whatever it's called in a particular version) in the screenshot?
So maybe files have extension, but the explorer has the usual setting to hide file extensions?
Every time I set up a new account in M$...
Nothing wrong with passthrough to a VM ;) As said if you happen to run docker containers this is best practice anyhow. If you want to also use something like Immich (which also profits from a GPU but is only available as docker image) this is...
No - the result you've shown is exactly this: two mirrors, striped :-)
No, that's not possible. You will have to create a new pool with a single mirror first. (Well, technically a single drive is enough - you can add a second drive to create the...
Zu den lxc-Problem, was Falk erwähnt hat: Sowas steht normalerweise in den Release-Notes einer neuen Version. Grundsätzlich würde ich aber nicht erwarten, dass ältere Container reibungslos funktionieren.
Zu virtuellen Maschinen: Die disk-Images...
Was für ein Backup meinst du?
Wenn du ein Backup einer VM machst kannst du das auf jedem beliebigen Hypervisor mit jeder beliebigen Version einspielen.
Bei LXC Containern sieht das etwas anders aus, da der LXC den Hostkernel benutzt. Da kann man...
So I assume you are talking about a Proxmox VE system? I'm asking since you opened this thread in the "Proxmox Datacenter Manager" subforum.
On Proxmox VE, the way to go is to ensure that ZED sends emails to the 'root' user, so the ZED config...
Whether you do a split or not is basically a matter of preference and constraints. For example my homelab has two mini-pcs which only have two storage slots (one NVME, one SATA). To split system and vms I would have to sacrifice redunancy. I...
@Johannes S @leesteken I feel you gave me a push in the right direction. I'll get a liitle deeper into ZFS and will report how it comes out.
Thank you so far & have a nice evening!
Nope, you won't buy the two small SSDs, and you will need at least one other 4TB SSD since a striped mirror will need at least four drives.
It's the ZFS equivalent of RAID10, basically you build two mirrors, then stripe then together. This gives...
A hardware RAID controller Battery Backup Unit (BBU) can cache sync writes and that might indeed help. (Or replace the SSDs with ones that have PLP.)
ZFS RAIDz1 is a poor choice for VM as the IOPS are much lower then using a ZFS stripe of...
Regarding RAIDZ versus (striped) mirrors on ZFS: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/fabu-can-i-use-zfs-raidz-for-my-vms.159923/
I would run the SSDs in a triple mirror or (if you have budget for another 4TB SSD) striped mirror. Just buying...
Just for clarity, while the result may look the same, PVE HA is the opposite: not "shoot-the-other-node and live" but "commit suicide" - a node fences itself, by a hard reset.
