Hello,
I'd like to mount multiple distant CIFS shares (external contract with a datacenter) on Windows Server VMs but I would like them to be excluded from PBS backup.
I never did that before and before buying this space i' would like to know if it's possible to only backup the VM and how...
Hello,
I would like to know your advice on this best practice
question :
- I have a 24 To ext4 Datastore (on one partition) with hardware RAID 6.
Do i need to make multiple datastores on this partition or just put all the backups
in this one is ok?
Thank you
I just made some tests, I f i put 9000 MTU on both iscsi switches and 8600 MTU on the servers all is working smoothely.
I f i put 9000 on both switches and hosts it starts to generate NOPs and I/O errors... But i looked at the specifications of the broadcom cards, they are supposed to handle...
I put all ports on the switches to 9000 and the 2 interfaces of each pve host connected to them also but it's a mess in the logs again...
Why do you say it must be mess than 9000? I should try 8192 ?
Hello everyone
I'm coming back with an answer : My problem is with the mtu 9OOO declared between the array and the iscsi dedicated switches. Both were configured mtu 9000 and when i deactivate this config on the pve hosts interfaces everything comes back to normal... I still haven't found the...
I just read the DELL guide for ME4024 and realised that there is one pool per controller : i have two pools on my array but i will only use one for the time being... I think this is why i have this problem, i activated all the controllers IPs while i'm only using 4. Can my problem come from...
Thanks for your answer.
When i only add one controller on the storage.cfg t's working
Then i go to the ME4024 array GUI, create a Volume (the volume where i will put one LVM VM) and map it on all the PVE initiators.
Back on the PVE and the logs start to fill up just after that
When i look...
Hello,
And thank you for your help.
I have installed a PVE cluster with 3 nodes and a DELL ARRAY.
The 2 controllesr on the array have 4 ports each (see PJ) i connected them to 2 switches in 2 non routed VLAN dedicated to iSCSI (70 et 77as you can see in the attachment)
I have 2 big LUNS on...
Thanks a lot for your answer,
I think we will do as you detailed below and use the array snapshot capacity. + PBS (and stick to docker for containers)
in this case How much bigger do you think we need to make each lun compared to the VM size ?
Hello,
I’m currently installing 3 pve hosts in cluster mode with an iSCSI EMC array, everything is redundant : 2 ToR switches for the servers , 2 switches for the iscsi traffic. We’ve chosen this solutions to migrate from ESX (too expensive).
I’ve read a few articles / posts related to PVE...
