It can be active/passive but It can't be active/nothing. Yes, but nonetheless if I opt for direct CephFS mounted inside VMs, they'll need an access to the Ceph public network. It is not ideal since some data might be confidential or need to be contained in a private environment. But I...

Yes it looks like this is needed in order to balance the NFS cluster either as "active/active" nodes or as "active/passive". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jppL51swnRo From a security standpoint it is not ideal. This is the reason why I wanted to explore other solutions.

Do you have any other solution in order to allow VM to use some CephFS storage, but not through a direct CephFS link since this will go through public Ceph network which is not in line with strong security policy ?

So you think that using NFS-Ganesha in Proxmox might not be possible ?

Yes, our first concern is that granting direct access to the CephFS will be made through the public CephFS which won't suit our requirements in terms of security. So we thought that using this NFS-Ganesha might be the right path to take since only NFS nodes will connect to the CephFS. We do...

Can anyone @proxmox let me know if It is safe to install and try to anwer the questions before I dig further into this ? Thanks

We are setting up a large scale Promox-VE CEPH cluster with 4 nodes. Most of our setup is now completed, cluster is up and running. This cluster will be using BGP based L2VPN-EVPN + VxLAN and might be multi-site. We need to provide file level access to some VM in the Cluster and first thought...

Ok - that was my question. And since I also love using ZFS, I just wanted to make sure there was no limitation or anything "not recommended". Thanks for your answer.

I am preparing a large scale CEPH cluster and was wondering if there was anything against installing my PVE on dedicated M.2 NVMe disks (2x 256GB - mirroring) using ZFS as the target OS. Cluster will have four servers with each server designed with : 2x NVMe M.2 (for the OS --> ZFS) 2x NVMe...

I don't understand why you want to convert the ISO to another media type. Just raw bit to bit engraving of your image is enough. We have used this with two different Mac (OS 11.3.1 and 10.14). We had problem at the real end of the install, not in the first stages of the boot / install...

It worked like a charm ! Thanks for the tip and,… you know what you have to do ;)

Well, I followed your guide ! If It is not "ok", you should consider editing this section. It is quite confusing. https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#installation_prepare_media 2.2.3. Instructions for macOS Open the terminal (query Terminal in Spotlight). Convert the .iso...

We are trying to install Proxmox-VE on an AMD based server. We have engraved the USB key from a Macintosh, and after engraving the key and booting, we have ended up with the following problem : found ISO9660 FS but no or wrong proxmox cd-id, skipping We have followed Proxmox official guide...

Well the GUI does not display any 'host/mysrv' on my backup server. These are genuine backup launched for the first time on the backup server, and they worked for my three other hypervisors which were configured the exact same way. My DataStore 'BackupPMX' has already been assigned a default...

I have this cron script setup and working "ok" on three of four servers of ours : goal is to backup PVE directories and key directories in case of "server crash" for a fast restore. I am using client version: 1.1.5 and latest proxmox server 6.4.5 SHELL=/bin/sh...

Actively working on large scale Proxmox project involving BGP, CEPH, SDN and what is "marketingly" known as "hyperconverged infrastructures" with a natural strong focus on cybersecurity, the Core knowledge of our company.

Following couple of example / guidelines provided in this forum, I have successfully deployed the proxmox-backup on Ubuntu 20. And of course Debian is also a no brainer.

It looks like the permission set through the GUI are not fully functional. I was able to set this using the associated CLI and managed to get the permission set "ok". I managed to get the backup flowing using the following cron script : SHELL=/bin/sh...

I am pulling my hair trying to have a cron based backup setup. First I am trying to have this command working without being croned and it doesn't! The global semantic with the proxmox-backup-client is really very confusing. I have managed to do the initial backup using root@pam account with...

Getting back to this thread. I need to backup the NFS storage (data) mounted inside my VM. What is the recommended way to do this ? The mountpoint is inside the VM and data are written to It. Thanks for your feedback.
