I can't upload to the local drives on the nodes. I get the below error. I've tried searching Google and everywhere else. Nothing seems to help. Can anyone help to point me in the right direction? "Error: 500: can't activate storage 'local' on node 'CEPH1' "

I created a pool of 3 replicas on a 30TB. When I go to the datacenter and created the storage. It show me 30TB available space. Shouldn't it display 10TB as the available space?

Hello, Can any one help? I am sure I am not the only one with this question. I just want to be able to upload ISO without going through the CephFS? Can I just upload it to the local drive (boot)? Thanks in advance for your help.

I keep seeing the term "weight" being apply throughout this discussion. Can someone help clarify what exactly is "weight" in the Ceph/ProxMox setup?

Thank you. This sounds like a lot just to store the ISOs. - Can I just upload it to the local drive (boot drive) of each server? I can download the templates to the 'local'. But when I tried to upload an ISO, I get the error "Error: 500: can't activate storage 'local' on node 'server1' " - In...

Thank you. The documentation fall short of explaining what to do next to store the ISO images for installation to the VMs.

Hello everyone, 1) Is there any detailed documentation for Promox and Ceph? 2) Per this link: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage:_Ceph I've completed install of ceph nodes, created the necessary steps, then created the VMs successsfully. Now I want to add ISO and installation images. Where...

Thank you very much. It makes a whole lot of sense. I have 3 replicas. PG count is 1024 (16 x 2TB HD) If I want to add more hard drive in the future, can I use 4TB-6TB drives or am I stuck with 2TB drives to match with the current? It would be silly if the drives we add to the cepth nodes has...

I read everywhere that SAS is supposed to be better and faster than SATA. I have 3 servers filed with SATA drives for OSD and also for boot. On the 4th server, I filled it with SAS drives. After creation of OSDs for all 4 servers, on the "OSD" section it show all the SAS drives on the 4th...

I have 3 x Dell PowerEdge 2950. Installed Proxmox 3.2 on all. During boot up, all servers reported the same error below: "ERST: Failed to get error log address range." However, all servers booted into the login prompt. Does any one have any idea why the servers are spitting out this error...

Hello, I am not sure what the problem is. I had to keep running the command many times before ceph can install. Almost every single time it give me the below error: root@server1:~# pveceph install -version firefly download and import ceph reqpository keys update available package list Reading...

Thank you very much for the quick reply. I am grateful. I have not set-up any replica yet. So in summary I can setup as many replicas as I would like? What is the advantage to setting up 3 replicas versus 2? I mean a copy is a copy. So is there a technical advantage to having 3 or even 4...

Hello, I am a newbie to this subject. I have 3 nodes setup per suggestion of ProxMox's wiki. Each has: Boot= 1 x 250GB Journal = 1 x 250GB OSDs = 4 x 2TB Based on the Proxmox article (http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Ceph_Server), I understand my maximum storage capacity at 8TB (100%) QUETIONS...

@ e100. Could you please help?

Thank you very much! Your explanation is very clear. I have more questions if you don't mind: - So in the current setup, node C as an old server being use as a communication node for the cluster? if node A and B happened to fail, node C will not do anything since the VMs are not on it? - Do you...

Thank you very much. A) I am still unclear as to why Proxmox stated we need 3 nodes for HA. Based on your suggestion, Proxmox HA would run fine on 2 nodes. This is really important to me as each server run close to about 14K-16K each. Does the third node really necessary? What is the purpose of...

Thank you for clarifying. Really appreciate it. 1) How will that work if hardware does not need to be identical? Let say NODE A is running 16GB of RAM, NODE B w/ 8GB, NODE C w/ 10GB. If NODE A goes down and the VM require at least 12GB of RAM to function, how will ProxMox HA be supportive in...

ProxMox documentation on fencing stated it was tested with Dell servers with DRAC5 card. I am confused about the part "but it must work with DRAC6". So does this mean ProxMox fencing will work with Dell DRAC5 card or not?

I am still confused about the hardware requirements for ProxMox HA. Does all the nodes have to have the same exact hardware? It would be nice if the ProxMox team come up with a hardware and software diagram to explain ProxMox HA for dummies like me. The diagram for ProxMox Mail Gateway HA was...

Thank you very much. Will this fix be included in the final release?
