    [SOLVED] "Phantom" destroyed OSD

    Hello Alwin, Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately, it seems you've underestimated the "phantom" factor ;) root@pve1:~# ceph auth del osd.1 entity osd.1 does not exist root@pve1:~# ceph osd crush rm osd.1 device 'osd.1' does not appear in the crush map It does not show in ceph auth ls nor...

    [SOLVED] "Phantom" destroyed OSD

    Hello, I've replaced a failing OSD (osd.1) on my cluster. GUI: Stop -> Out -> Destroy then Create OSD with the new disk (same sdX as the removed failed one). On the GUI, OSD tab, my 3 OSDs where present and Up/In but I did not noticed that osd.3 replaced osd.1 at first. Now, on the Ceph TAB...

    Add snapshot=0 option to Hard Disk ?

    Hi Fabian, I've seen this post already but didn't found it relevant in the first place. Does this mean that CT+bind = VM+pass-through regarding by question ? So if I comment out virtio1 -> 4 lines and then try to snapshot again it will work (only on virtio0) ? When in the process do I have to...

    Add snapshot=0 option to Hard Disk ?

    Hello, Could it be possible to implement a flag like the existing backup=0/1 and replication=0/1 but for snapshot ? I have a OpenMediaVault VM with its boot disk based on CEPH and with 4 disks passed through. I'd like to snapshot the boot disk before OS maintenance/upgrade/tests/whatever and...

    Proxmox HA cluster - options for redundant storage?

    You could get rid of your RPI virtualizing your FreeNAS on the 3rd node (installing PM on it). And you could create a 2nd FreeNAS VM (or whatever flavor of iSCSI target provider) on one of the 2 other node and use OS based software mirroring between 2 iSCSI LUNs to get rid of the storage SPOF.

    CEPH: Use lvm volume as block.db device ?

    Thanks a lot for your answer Alwin ! Is your answer (first part regarding performance) valid if instead of an LVM volume I create a dedicated partition on the boot SSD ? Have a nice day.

    CEPH: Use lvm volume as block.db device ?

    Hello all, Before being flamed ;) please note that my question is related to a @home infrastructure and is not supposed to be deployed in any kind of production ! My Proxmox infrastructure is based on 3 nodes with an SSD used for OS and a single dedicated disk used as CEPH OSD (bluestore). As...

    [SOLVED] How does CEPH identify OSD ?

    Hello all, I have a simple question. I have a 2 controllers host with boot/backup disks on the 1st controller and OSD/data devices on the 2nd one. So far, sda & sdb are present (1st controller) and sdc (OSD) & sdd (pass-through a NAS VM using disk/by-id) on the second. I have to add a disk on...

    Proxmox on old computer | 3 questions

    Hello, #1 - Yes it is possible. Once PM installed on the SSD, connect to the GUI and add the HDD as a local storage (directory/lvm/... your choice). #2 - You'll be prompted during install to use the whole disk (or partition it yourself if I remember). Every "old" partitions will be wiped out in...

    Can VMs migrate live with process running?

    That's what migration does. Migration requires source and target nodes up and running.

    Can VMs migrate live with process running?

    As far as I known, the only way to to what you want is to permanently "sync" the memory image of the VMs on each nodes of the HA group. I guess it is technically possible but not yet implemented. And to do so, you'll need a network infrastructure correctly sized to achieve it without a great...

    Does passing through harddisk disable the vm's snapshot functionality?

    Hello, I have the same "issue". I have a OpenMediaVault VM with its boot disk based on CEPH and with 4 disks passed through. I'd like to snapshot the boot disk before maintenance/upgrade/tests/whatever and the option is greyed out. As I've backup & replication disabled the 4 "physical" disks...

    Two NICs work on one guest, not on the other!

    More a weird configuration than a weird issue, but glad you've finally found what was wrong your environment before "quitting proxmox" which is a really good piece of software ;)

    Question: HowTo: Add Notes on the Summary page

    Single click on the little gear icon on the upper right of the "Notes area" does not open the edit window for you ? Double click in the area does the same but is less intuitive.

    2 clusters vs. 1, ceph and VM clusters

    If the VMs cannot migrate to the storage nodes "in case of emergency" I don't see any reason to merge the 2 clusters.

    Change Virtio block bus/device for a existing VM disk to SCSI bus/device...

    Depending on the operating system running on your VM, you should just stop the VM, Remove the disk (hardware pane) and then Add the disk (shown as unused) using the desired controller type. It's usually fine with linux based OS but may be problematic with Windows because of the driver used to...
