The cache never gets freed up, that's the problem. And it only gets cached during the backup process, so clearly day to day the cache isn't needed. All the VMs are on a NAS, they're just local compute. I'm monitoring percentage of swap used, 10% or higher and I get alerted.

I can't even find this thread in the forum, what's going on here? :/ edit: oh it's showing up now suddenly, what. Anyone have any thoughts on this topic btw?

I have 3x Proxmox VE nodes in a cluster, and the issue I'm about describe has been problematic for me for years now. I've been trying to find the "proper" solution to this problem, but alas, I find more criticism for the method I use than real solutions. A few years ago I learned about the...

That presumes you are in the buying phase of kit.

Thanks for the info! I'll have to go roll this out real soon.

omfg and this is why editable titles should be a thing d'oh

Hey so ZombieLoad was announced today : https://www.zdnet.com/article/patch-status-for-the-new-mds-attacks-against-intel-cpus/ No, I'm talking about the new speculative CVEs, not the movie. What's the response from Proxmox devs as to when we can see patches for this?

WOOT! IT WORKED! The cluster section under Data Centre now has "Join Cluster" enabled and "Create Cluster" greyed out! It says it's a cluster, and all that! Thanks a tonne! I'm commenting out the manual resolution in the hosts for the time being (now that they're rejoined), simply to keep...

Any chance I can get your clarification on above please? :) I'm holding off on executing to hear from you.

Okay I just want to clarify so I precisely follow your direction here Add dormant1 and dormant2 to the hosts of small1, small2 and bigboy1 On dormant1 and dormant2, stop pve-cluster FROM small1, copy /etc/corosync/corosync.conf TO dormant1 and dormant2 in the same location On dormant1 and...

And now I can't edit my above post to fix typos because "it looks spammy"... wtf?

Okay it looks like I messed up a good while ago, and I'm not sure the best course to correct this. I have 5x nodes. Small1 Small2 Dormant1 Dormant2 BigBoy1 Early history, the cluster was Small1 Small2 Then I got new servers, and added them to the cluster Small1 Small2 Dormant1 Dormant2...

WOOT! Any word when we might be getting VM import/exprt? ;)

I think you're onto something about the DNS aspect, I did make a DNS change recently. I'll have to check that out and get back to you!

Yeah in the Datacenter section even lists "Cluster Nodes"... wtf

I'm not sure when this happened, but recently when I check the "Cluster" section of my Datacentre, it says there's no cluster. Except, it has been a cluster for over 5 years now, currently with 5x nodes. The whole cluster is 5.3-11, and I have been maintaining and upgrading it since about 2.3...

Can I use Open vSwitch to interface Virtual Machines with an InfiniBand network for the purpose of having the Virtual Machines talk between each other (on same/different cluster nodes) over the InfiniBand network? And/or other purposes too?

Hi Folks, One of my nodes fell on its face last night, and I am uncertain why exactly. But that's not what this is about. I was looking at the backup log, and it looks like it happened during then, as quorum was lost and the backups were unable to make the changes to old backup stuff as...

1. Write endurance is one thing I did not find comparison on. I'll check that out, thanks! 2. I actually provide support for FreeNAS on the IRC channel, so I'm well aware of such things, and NVMe is not an _actual_ requirement for good/great SLOG performance. There's plenty of systems or budgets...

I don't want it to _NEVER_ swap. I am capable of changing the swappiness parameter, I just am more reporting that the swapping behaviour seems to happen (by default/OOTB) earlier than it should. It seems like adjusting the "sane defaults", might be a good idea, or this might be an unforeseen...
