    Conflicting maxfiles policy and retention period

    Hi @Fabian_E even if this was the case it should be keeping 7 backups which it is not. I've cross checked your notes and can confirm that the config in UI is now (as of yesterday) set to all VM's and scheduled to execute daily at 3:45 am. we should be seeing 7 copies being kept. at the...

    Conflicting maxfiles policy and retention period

    those logs have been checked and nothing that jumps out at me. the backup command simply executed the number of VM’s to be backed up in 1 command this finished normally. then a second command it triggered to clean up and apply the retention period. so the clean up command must be running a...

    Conflicting maxfiles policy and retention period

    Hi @narrateourale updates have now been installed :) Yes all same storage which is why its strange behavior. Are there any places that could have a per VM backup config that i can look at ? very strange and really need to get it sorted out :) ""Cheers G

    Conflicting maxfiles policy and retention period

    Hi Team have a strange issue with a backup policy. Round 1. we previously had a backup policy to take a backup once per week and keep 1 backup. As things change we needed to update this policy to accommodate for more frequent backups. Round 2. The old policy was removed and a new policy...

    ZFS over iSCSI Network HA

    ok with ZFS over iSCSI ProxMox creates the LUN per VM the correct term will be zvol, this zvol will be managed by Proxmox, snapshots managed by ProxMox etc. each zvol will have it's own snapshots using ZFS snapshot. My understanding is when you migrate VM between hosts the config file is...

    ZFS over iSCSI Network HA

    Hey LACP is for the network deferment and as you have advised will work :) this is more to do with controller, in theory I don’t see why it would t work it was more a question if you had tested something like the above and what the deal world results are. mall good thanks for taking the time...

    ZFS over iSCSI Network HA

    For example you can get a TrueNas shared storage box with dual controllers running in active/ passive mode. If 1 controller fails the second takes over to minimise any potential outage, the second controller takes over in about 20 sec so iscsi if set correctly will keep working and VM should...

    ZFS over iSCSI Network HA

    Mid im trying to get my head around the correct use case for ZFS over iSCSI. Apart from: - running on central storage - native zfs snaps - data scrubbing etc - reduce ZFS memory overhead per host to be able to run more VM’s (i think this is a big one) do live migrations work the same as normal...

    ZFS over iSCSI Network HA

    Mir have you played with ZFS over iSCSI? i had noticed some caveats while reading forum posts but the I formation is scattered everywhere, it would be great if all this info was collated into 1 place so users could make an informed decision if this is the right protocol for them. would love to...

    ZFS over iSCSI Network HA

    Hi All have been looking around and not found an answer yet. Ive noticed in the ProxMox Wiki which is quiet out of date that it mentioned MPIO is not available for ZFS over iSCSI. Is LACP or NIC Active/ Passive available for ZFS over ISCSI? Considering using a Free/TrueNas system with dual...
