so we are talking about PBS, wouldn't all backups and their respective files be larger than 128K? If 4K and smaller are heading over to the special_device wouldn't setting the normal RaidZ2 be best set to 512 or 1M record size? what other files are being stored on the RaidZ2 that are going to...

record size for ZFS storage target. (not the special device) ""Cheers G

Hi All not trying to hijack this thread but seeing the same issue here, only problem is i'm not familiar with the language being spoken so hard to follow in detail. @dcsapak is there anything i can help with on this issue to assist with a fix? English please if possible - sorry :) ""Cheers G

Interested in this thread as we are currently working with PBS to find the best fit special_small_blocks size as a question what block size did you set on your ZFS datastore is it the default 128k block size? if this is default you'll find that it may perform better with a 1M block size for...

Ok i think i have worked out the issue. the Rados benchmark isn't pushing the drives hard enough to get the max IOP's available for Reads/ Writes. Have performed some VM drive tests and can see much higher available IOP's in the VM benchmark using CrystalMark and then observing the IOP's...

Hey Everyone this be sound like a stupid question on this topic but would love some clarity on the numbers we are seeing. let me provide some background to the results for clarity. as an example below: 3 x Hosts 256 GB Ram each Intel v3/4 12 CPU dual socket Mirror ZFS Boot 1 x OSD per host...

We used to use DRS on our VMware clusters and found that it was too disruptive to Windows servers etc. vMotion would create a small pause when moving between hosts and this creates issues for all RDS instances and user experience. over time for many work loads we may do a manual DRS balance...

Quick update ive checked the Dell R630 and can confirm that the drive SMART status is reporting correctly in the GUI. let me know how else i can help assist with this issue? Wondering if the HP HBA Card has some specific driver requirements? just throwing it out there. ""Cheers G

Just to chime in we have the same issue with all of our HP G9 servers using hba 240ar controllers. not sure if its the same issue as its a fresh Proxmox install of 6.3 upgraded to 6.4. We also have a Dell we are about to test as well, something tells me its an HP specific issue. ill update...

Hi @dcsapak sorry i cant fing this anywhere in Proxmox are you able to provide more precise steps as there is no section in PVE or in DataCentre that has options > notify. thank you. G

not sure to be honest haven't played with it enough at the end of the day we know its an issue and the fix is to create another user name for the new share. enjoy! ""Cheers G

Hi @jegan did this ever get resolved? seeing the same error in our environment on 1 specific VM. ERROR: Backup of VM 114 failed - Node 'drive-virtio0' is busy: block device is in use by block job: mirror ""Cheers G

Hi All thought i would add to this thread for completeness :) create storage failed: error with cfs lock 'file-storage_cfg': mount error: Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) Another discovery i've found that triggers the same error is when you use the same user name...

Hi @Stoiko Ivanov thanks for jumping in and answering some questions. I think PMG has outgrown this setup/ design there are MSP's and reseller that are or would like to use it in a more robust way, the product it self is capable of managing mas amounts of emails as in @mmidgett 's example...

some good points there @mmidgett is PMG able to be configured to send out via multiple IP's? haven't explored this yet would be great to be able to manually make this change if there is a block issue due to spamming. ""Cheers G

May I ask why ? what’s the difference if you also send mail via subdomain ? More info please to better understand the problem. ta

Thanks for confirming @ph0x . Im hoping someone with this same setup can comment and confirm as well. ""Cheers G

hi @ph0x thanks for the reply. That’s the reason for my question, specifically in regards to mix and match with Ceph. I’m looking for a confirmation that it’s usable in this way with a mix of zfs and Ceph. using ProMox Ceph specifically opposed to an external 3rd party Ceph cluster. ta

Hi @mgiammarco May I please ask with your dl360 G9‘s running Ceph, what storage controller are you using? we are looking at repurpose similar hardware into a Ceph cluster and still reviewing what the best controller from HP is. we have both H240 and 440 controllers available. would love...

Hi All just wondering is it possible to have a ProxMox cluster with both local ZFS data store per host + Ceph on the same cluster? example. 5 or 6 hosts 10 bays per host 4 bays for ZFS mirror 6 bays for Ceph is it possible to have this mixed storage design in a single cluster? From a...
