Sorry, I don't understand what you mean with that.
I'm asking about the official support of Proxmox PBS to do backups of QEMU VMs in a PVE cluster that is also backed up by other backup solution (Hornet, Veeam, Nakivo), whether of the same VMs...
Which is the official support status of doing PVE QEMU backups with PBS and other backup solutions?
Specifically, would like to know the support status from Proxmox PBS for:
Veeam
Hornetsecurity (Altaro)
Nakivo
There are a few use cases that...
There is now a newer pve-manager with version 9.2.12 available on the pve-test repo and a backport of that as 8.4.22 for PVE 8's pvetest repo, matching our respective test repo of the ceph-squid and ceph-tentacle releases.
There is some better...
This should be the same for VMs and CTs as the HA Manager handles affinity rules the same for both. In a quick test, the migration blocker with the same node affinity rule as above was shown to me for both VMs and CTs, so I couldn't move either...
It should not let you migrate neither the CT nor the VM. If it did, once you migrate a VM from pve-4 to pve-2, in the next ha cycle (~10 seconds) HA would say "this VM on pve-2 has another node with higher priority and the node is up, let's...
This can be done gradually, but needs a bit of care. We're currently in the process of finishing a migration helper tool and providing documentation for how to do this.
@yangsm AFAIK, Ceph 20.2.4 / 19.2.6 packages are only available in Test repository, you should avoid using it unless for testing. Proxmox is working on the process to rotate the keys [1], although we still don't know the details, on paper it...
You right, somehow I understood that there are SSD for OS but not SSD to dedicate to SD, so imagined that OP wanted to devote some space on those SSD for SD.
This is only HDD, zero SSD. (As of #1)
Having a "separate" Special Device on the very same spindles makes no sense.
Actually we know not much at all. What actual drives are available? How many? How many (unused) connectors has the controller...
I would put the RAID controller in JBOD / IT mode to convert it to an HBA, the use ZFS for both the OS and special device. Remember that ZFS isn't supported on RAID controllers/LUNs. When installing PVE/PBS, set the disk size to ~50G, should be...
Yes, but not every single time. Depends essentially on the size of the datastore, how much work PBS has to do (i.e. backup once a day vs once an hour, many replicas, many verify, etc), and how much time you have to run GC, which is the task that...
Yes that's true; I removed some lines because of posting limitations. Also only no-subscription repository is enabled (besides debian repos of course)..
In the apt update output above I'm missing a line referencing Proxmox repositories, although the apt list --upgradable does indeed show upgradable Proxmox packages. Are you sure the Proxmox repositories are correctly configured?
Check this point of view: there's no ZFS without ARC: it's and inherent part of ZFS architecture and ZFS performance is designed around it, so you do relay on it and expect it to behave correctly to get the most of your ZFS. Like why not raise...
Finally got a chance to check on this. The problem seems to be related to a recently reported bug [1] that causes ARC to evict all/most of it's contents erroneously, even when there's plenty of RAM available.
This causes ARC to almost never...
That's good news, but remember that you are using an unsupported storage stack that will sooner or later give you some issue that no one will be willing to investigate / fix. Take your time to rebuild your storage to a proper ZFS setup, which...
We kinda know why the problem happens, more or less...
if the VM tries to access a memory zone that the host has currently swapped a PF will be generated so that the guest kernel can do something else on that vCPU while waiting, this behavior is...
