    Proxmox on Apple hardware

    Hi, I'd like to know if running Proxmox on Apple hardware seamlessly will be a supported feature in the future. I'd like to virtualize some OSX systems, but the only way to do that is to be running Proxmox on Apple hardware. Gerald

    New cron.d entry not working

    Hi, I created a file called cluster.cron in /etc/pve. Because of where it's placed, the file is duplicated to all servers in my cluster. I then create a link in /etc/cron.d on all my servers to the file in /etc/pve. Just like the vzdump.cron file is done. In my cluster.cron, I put: * * * *...

    DRBD iSCSI vs DRBD NFS

    I agree, it's not directly Proxmox related. I was checking to see if anyone using Proxmox has seen the same issue and maybe solved it.

    DRBD iSCSI vs DRBD NFS

    Perhaps if I said DRBD with NFS instead of DRBD and NFS.

    Anyone using a replicated NFS storage system?

    ZFS may be a solution, although I have a manager that would never grasp the concept of non-gui based snapshots. How does ZFS run on top of DRBD? I did both XFS and EXT4 exported via NFS on top of DRBD, and the speeds dropped dramatically (118 MB/s iSCSI to 35 MB/s async NFS)

    low fsyncs with GlusterFS

    Hi, Ahhh! That's how it works. Unfortunately, I get timeouts on creating a disk. Gerald

    Anyone using a replicated NFS storage system?

    Hi, I currently have a replicate DRBD/iSCSI solution running on Ubuntu 13.10. I get great speeds from it, and good fsyncs/sec. What I don't have is snapshot ability, which I really miss from my XenServer days. Using the same hardware and OS, I moved to a DRBD/NFS replicated solution. My...

    low fsyncs with GlusterFS

    Hi, I used the glusterfs mount option through the Proxmox GUI, which I assumed used the gluster library. Unfortunately, it's snapshots I want. Gerald

    low fsyncs with GlusterFS

    Hi, I had an iSCSI/DRBD setup which I switched over to GlusterFS. First I tried NFS/DRBD, and although it worked, throughput went fron 118 MB/s to 35 MB/s with the secondary DRBD attached. Now with gluster, I'm getting the expected throughput, 58MB/s (about 1/2 of GigE due to Gluster...

    DRBD iSCSI vs DRBD NFS

    Hi, I have separate servers for my DRBD shared storage, using Ubuntu 13.10 and DRBD 8.4.4. Currently they are serving iSCSI to Proxmox. I'd like to switch to NFS to get snapshots, but when I did, my disk speeds dropped. I get 118 MB/s on DRBD/iSCSI, and about 40 MB/s on NFS (async). When I...

    Thinking about moving from XenServer

    I used Clonezilla to do all my migrations. Gerald

    Thinking about moving from XenServer

    I just moved 24 VM's from XenServer to Proxmox. Everything was a bit of a pain to move, but every VM seems to be more stable. I've only had all VM up on Proxmox for 2 weeks at this point, but I started transferring just over a month ago, so some VM's have been on Proxmox for over 30 days. So...

    Thanks for the reply.

    online migration resets uptime

    Thanks for the quick response. Is it policy for Proxmox to not specify possible release dates, or does your response mean 'coming very soon'? Sorry for not quite understanding. Gerald

    online migration resets uptime

    Sorry to bring up an old thread, but do you know when this will be completed and available to users? Gerald

    Are people running large KVM Clusters?

    I have 3 servers (Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X3323 @ 2.50GHz 4 cores) running 25 KVM systems converted from Citrix XenServer 2 weeks ago. Storage is currently a Promise m610i iSCSI, but I'll soon have my old XenServer storage moved over, which is a DRBD system with RAID-6 arrays on GigE. Gerald

    Cluster wide cron?

    Hi Dietmar, I'll do that, thanks. It would be a great (and simple?) addition to the GUI to have an editable crontab for all hosts in a cluster. Gerald

    Cluster wide cron?

    Hi, I'd like to run a cron entry on all nodes in my cluster. Is there a cron file that gets replicated across all nodes in the cluster like vzdump.cron? Gerald edit: I might as well tell you what I'm doing. I generate offsite backups every weekend. The VM's get dumped to an NFS mount...
