Like.
Technically 1,500,000 has 7-digits ;) Sadly, the page you refered to does not quote any real sources, but I just found the press release from Proxmox itself and yes, the 1,5M hosts is valid... -
hi, in https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Cluster_Manager#_corosync_external_vote_support Unlike corosync itself, a QDevice connects to the cluster over TCP/IP. The daemon can also run outside the LAN of the cluster and isn’t limited to the low...

Hi, yes, this is absolutely possible. I would do it the same way.

UdoB replied to the thread Configering a Cluster with only one node (first).Sure! To check some aspects, usual problems and possible showstoppers read this forum ;-) and those wiki pages: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migrate_to_Proxmox_VE https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Advanced_Migration_Techniques_to_Proxmox_VE Good...

UdoB reacted to Martin.B.'s post in the thread [SOLVED] cannot take snapshot: local ZFS uses raw for vdisks / cannot change to qcow with Like.
Thanks you all for the fast comments. I could not start a snapshot in the GUI, the button "Take snapshot" was greyed out every time i tried. The problem was, as often, sitting in front of the keyboard.... and now i feel really bad. I just...

According to this page - in 2025 it was 6-digits (1,500,000 +)!

You can purchase different subscriptions to receive support directly from Proxmox (fast and very professional) if desired. Proxmox VE and their other products are very mature. We use their products on every customer site, ranging from small...

UdoB replied to the thread Dheeraj Sudan and Meenu Hinduja-How do I debug kernel panic or boot issues during installation?.When you boot from your installation media, the first menu shows something like 1) "Install PVE" and 2) "Check media and install...". Make sure to use the second one, with "check". I've had problems (somewhere during the installation, not at the...

any time you build an environment with such nested dependencies you're making a unsupportable/difficult to support solution. As a matter of design, your storage layer and your compute layer should not be interdependent. Since you've decided that...

UdoB replied to the thread Connection error 596.At the very top of this page is a "HOME" link. This - or just opening https://forum.proxmox.com/ - will bring you to the overview. The two topmost offers (both for PVE) are...

UdoB reacted to d.oishi's post in the thread [SOLVED] cannot take snapshot: local ZFS uses raw for vdisks / cannot change to qcow with Like.
local-zfs uses the zfspool backend, so VM disks are stored as ZFS volumes/datasets in raw format. Not being able to select qcow2 there is expected. Snapshots on local-zfs are not qcow2 internal snapshots; they are provided by the ZFS storage...

UdoB replied to the thread Datacenter Manager integration with Zabbix Template.I am using https://git.zabbix.com/projects/ZBX/repos/zabbix/browse/templates/app/proxmox?at=release/7.4 To make it work you need to follow the documentation on that page ;-) I've set only {$PVE.TOKEN.ID} {$PVE.TOKEN.SECRET} and {$PVE.URL.HOST}...

UdoB reacted to bbgeek17's post in the thread [SOLVED] Are there any companies that extensively use PVE in daily production environments? with Like.
While these threads are storage-slanted, the feedback it the threads is from companies running successful businesses, almost exclusively on Proxmox Virtualization Environment...

They have some success stories on their page: https://www.proxmox.com/en/about/about-us/stories There was also a survey on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Proxmox/s/aGMBgJqm0L

Additionally, with just 3 nodes in a ceph cluster, make sure you have at least 4 OSDs in each. Because with just 2 per node, you will likely have issues if one of the OSDs fails. As then Ceph will recover the lost replicas to the only node it can...

UdoB reacted to Johannes S's post in the thread Use Disk PassThrough or Raid-0 for PVE with Ceph (Testsystem) with Like.
Regarding Ceph: The PVE wiki has a page how to set up a mesh network for three nodes. This saves some bucks because you will need less switches: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Full_Mesh_Network_for_Ceph_Server The reference doc chapter on...

UdoB reacted to Johannes S's post in the thread Is there a NON-host way to automate zfs dataset snapshot creation? with Like.
This makes it a prime candidate for a minimal alpine based container imho: With HA I always have a working version in the cluster

UdoB reacted to meyergru's post in the thread Moved SSD from one motherboard/pc to another -> Higher temperatures and fan speeds with Like.
Unless you use some Linux tools to set it explicitely, the actual power modes are determined by the BIOS. Both Intel CPUs should use around the same power when idle, the difference is the ACPI settings which determine how deep the sleep states...

UdoB replied to the thread Storage performance IOps difference.I do not know. And I've never used vdbench, so I have no idea what that thing measures. I hesitated to post the obvious: Generally local storage is always faster than network devices. As long as the same type of HDD/SSD/NVMe devices are used and...
