    ZFS Configuration planning for Virtual Machines

    Thanks. that book was a good read. Espeically the section about "Six to Twelve Disks". my question is this: This logic was based on Spinners (HDD's) and most likely can not be translated to SSD's on a 1:1 ratio regarding streaming read/writes (due to ther enot being read/write heads for SSDs)...

    Production Clusters - any tips before hardware purchase ?

    we currently use a backup-software inside the VMs / Servers. to accomplish a similar functionality. because that software does not do delta-syncs it has to write the whole VM-/ServerData. As such we had to set it to 60 Minutes to not saturate the links on the storage (which is a NAS). [The...

    ZFS Configuration planning for Virtual Machines

    Is there any hard data on the severity ? If i did read this [POST] correct, the overhead is <=2x for a RaidZ2 (8k data + 2x4k parity calculations just for the writes) e.g. a 8 SSD-disk Raidz2 vs Raid10 ?

    ZFS Configuration planning for Virtual Machines

    Just some things that come to mind on top my head: Memory. As per https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pve-installation.html#_zfs_performance_tipsyou should be using 4 GB + 1 TB per Raw Disk Space. A Quick Calculation shows that you will have at least 8x6 TB in RaidZ(1) split on two...

    Proxmox Cluster DDosing each other.

    a ping from Node X to Node Y on the network used by corosync will suffice. If you set up the cluster using the public (internet facing) IP of the hosts, and did not manually configure corosync afterwards, it would be: On host X: "ping [IP Host y]" On host X: "ping [IP Host Z]" On host Y: "ping...

    Seh is stable. It works. it does not have hick-ups and it plays nice within a hot environment. I have Seh USB to network hubs in my environments that have been running for 8+ years without needing ANY manual input post setting up. I am willing to pay the 150€/piece. You might not be. There...

    UPS APC to shutdown VMs?

    You could use a USB to network device, then pipe that into a KVM of your choice. www.seh-technology.com myUTN comes to mind (we use that to provide Datev-USB-Dongles to Windows 2019 Servers) and Standalone Datev-Remote Desktops (for Home Office during Covid19)
