Hi, I'm about to install a couple of new servers. Each of them has got 28 sata disks. My initial plan was to make RAID10 on 6 disks for the system and 10 disks RAID10 DRBD for server #1 and also 10 disks DRBD for server #2. Keeping two as spare and leaving space for eventual SSD cache disk...

Only for KVM as far as I know. If you search the OpenVZ page you'll find someone did a HA setup for OpenVZ, but I guess it is not easily integrated into proxmox. (http://wiki.openvz.org/HA_cluster_with_DRBD_and_Heartbeat) Another possibility is to place your data on a shared disk and use bind...

It might be easier to use the GUI to make a backup and then restore using "qmrestore". However doing it manually you need to dublicate and change the configuration file also. See "/etc/qemu-server".

I don't think it matters - you have generated your locales with the dpkg-reconfigure command - so next time you run a system tool it will take effect. Have you tried running pveversion again afterwards?

Try running the following: dpkg-reconfigure locales and select the missing locales. That should fix it.

I'm lucky to have an almost identical test server at the moment. I've been running the 2.6.24-12 kernel the last 24 hours - installing and running a few VMs. I've stressed the network a bit, but it is difficult to thoroughly test an error which popped up after 120 days. Thank you for your...

Did you take a look at the Dolphin DXH510 adapters also?

Did you end up trying this NIC? I'm looking for something similar for a DRBD setup.

Hi, Just had a very strange error today. Suddenly I lost all connection to the Proxmox box (been running for 120 days). I looked at the console and found it running fine, but log-messages revealed the following: Jul 6 13:31:10 jango kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed out Jul 6...

i7-860 has VT (have one myself ;-)) so it must be disabled in the BIOS.

Starting to get me curious ;-). We are about to choose either vmware or proxmox. I'm afraid the Windows performance and stability will be the deciding factor. It seems the 2.6.32 kernel and virtio really boost kvm performance along with lvm. What kind of storage are you using?

Impressive ;-), are you running any M$-SQL servers? how well are they performing compared to vmware? Which version of the virtio drivers to you use for Windows?

looks good, just remember to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst to set which kernel to use as default. Otherwise it will still boot 2.6.24.

Interesting solution. Did you get this up and running?

2.6.18 is the most stable openvz (and kvm) release. 2.6.24 was at some point maintained by the openvz team. I'm running 2.6.24-9 myself using debian 4 template without any problems for about ½ a year. But I'll switch to 2.6.18 as soon as I get a replicated hardware setup. If you can afford a...

Sorry but I think vzdump will not be of any help in this case - it always makes a complete backup of a VM. However you are free to experiment yourself with qcow2 images using qemu-img. Search for "base images". That should make it possible to make incremental images.

yes, see "/etc/vz/cron/vz". There should be a description about what to do.

It could be that the containers are only restarted once every 5 minutes I think. Try to wait a little longer. Bo

Will DRBD be supported directly in the webinterface or would you rather recommend going for shared storage? I'm looking a bit into the intel modular server. Will the Shared LUN feature qualify for shared storage in Proxmox? Thanks in advance.

Will the HA feature lean towards using local storage and DRBD or shared storage?
