Hi RCD If you have external storage or can create another pool locally of slower disks that’s your best bet. Anything else is going to be a headache to manage. If you can create another local pool with slower drives for backup sweet. On this pool you can create a file server cantos vm and do...

Hi all Coming from a VMware background I’ve never heard of assigning threads as it’s emulation within the cpu for an additional data path. 2 x paths for data to travel on per core theoretically allowing parallel processing to happen. But the core still only processes one path at a time...

I still have a feeling the drop is happening due to high load during the backup cycle. Normally there is a iSCSI time out and if this is reached by the initiator the connection will drop and won't come back as there will be built up IO requests, hence why the reboot is required to reconnect...

Ok so what’s the free nas box being used for if there are no backups going to it? I’ve seen network connections drop when there is too much disk IO or load on the CPU. Are you running spinning disks or SSD locally? What is the nas box running spinning disk or ssd? How big is the network...

What’s using 192.168.1.66?

Hi dsh I agree with czechsys using Linbit drbd is a good option and can work with 2 or more hosts of various types so dont all need to be the same. We are currently speaking with Linbit our selves and should be testing DRBD and Linstore module by the end of this year. What’s your network...

Hi Joogser A few points if I may. 1. Your initial post excluded the primary hyperviser being used which is hyper-v, this is a major exclusion from the problem your asking to be solved. This is a ProxMox forum not hyper-v if you need help configuring hyper-v this this would be best asked on a...

the correct solution for nested would be more inline with this: https://www.jeffreykusters.nl/2018/05/22/vlans-vxlans-ospf-nested-vmware-homelab/ the same principals still apply for all hypervisors. not sure if i remember reading why you need this to work in Hyper-V is it just for testing ...

It might have something to do with promiscuous mode of the network not allowing for additional encapsulation of nested network packets for different vLans. This is a VMware link but would assume the issue is the same on Hyper-V or with any nested hypervisor...

Ok but does this just mean that the cluster should be created before adding shared storage otherwise the VM config needs to be backed up and restored on the single node if cluster is created after Vm’s Already exist on node. Have I summarised correctly ? “”Cheers G

That’s ok I totally understand that only HA allows for Vm’s To be migrated live and fail over. Can you please point me in the direction of the correct documentation to be able to run Vm’s Both locally and on shared storage on the same host. Obviously only the Vm’s Running On shared storage...

I will thank you. Appreciate the heads up on the cluster add. Is there a way to run VM’s both locally and on shared storage? I just assumed it worked in a similar fashion to VMware where both local and shared storage can be used at the same time and when adding a host to a cluster no config...

Hi Wouter Hope you don’t mind if i chime in with some questions. Are you keeping the physical host in the same DC? Are the VM’s on the host allocated an IPv4 public address? I’ve never seen a public address allocated to a rack they are normally allocated to a DataCentre location and are...

Hi Alwin Little confused can you please go into more detail with your response. What is the restriction with local storage when in a cluster? What happens if a node was running VM’s and then this node is joined to a cluster what happens to the VM’s? I haven’t tested this in our setup yet so...

Hi Stoiko do you or have you used Check_MK? Or was it just for testing? We are currently looking for an open source alternative to PRTG which we currently use for our VMware environment. We have a new business starting up which is focused on supporting open source solutions and unfortunately...

To be straight up i personally like simple. The simpler a feature is, the better it works! There have been way too many issues over the years with over complicated features from VMware what are hard to track which mens hard to fix. VXlan by design ticks all the boxes we are looking for and...

Hay Mate we do use NSX in our VMware deployment. NSX Edges and NSX master. What NSX features are in the planning? We are looking at an alternative to NSX Edge devices still trying to work out the best option for users at this stage no solid ideas - have been looking at Opensense and Pfsense...

Hi Spirit thanks for replying :) thats cool and as mentioned i'm super happy to wait, have lots of experience with VMware VXLAN and am very aware of the intricacies of the technology and how it functions, no rush to manually start down a path which could end up in down time at the end of the...

Hi Spirit if doing this manually will Proxmox pick up the config once its in 6.1? I'm patient and can wait if its slotted for end of year or even early next year, would prefer to get it right from the get go for a smoother roll out. ""Cheers G

Hi Team what's the recommended way to monitor PMG? We where going to download and setup SNMP to monitor CPU, Storage, Memory from PRTG or other monitoring system. Are there any recommendations or does PMG already have a monitoring system or SNMP setup? this is a preliminary question to start...
