    "Best practise" for a two node proxmox/storage cluster

    Yes, I belive this would be a great solution for my needs. And no, I did not crosspost on purpose, as I realized the existence of this thread only after I started a new one. Sorry for that. About DRDB9, it appears that some people are using it even in production. What is so risky about it that...

    Cluster and HA in 4.x - would love to learn more

    Thank you for your intervention, mir. Do you know if there is any walkthrough for this setup on the net for a complete newbie that I am? As far as I understand, I need to install Debian and then the package Corosync2 and that's it. Buyt how do I configure it to interact properly with the other...

    "Best practise" for a two node proxmox/storage cluster

    I already have some spare Atoms that I could use, but I srongly belive they're all 32 bits and w/out virtualization support. Is this a problem even for just the "quorumgetter" purpose? I sure am :) Would I be better off waiting for DRBD9 or should I try Ceph?

    "Best practise" for a two node proxmox/storage cluster

    Thank you for your answer, so I assume DRBD8 is obsoleted for VE 4.x ? I just said DRBD9 because I thought it was available, but of course the older version would do the job if compatible. However I'm not sure which would be the HW requirements for this low power server. For example, ARM is not...

    Cluster and HA in 4.x - would love to learn more

    Thank you wosp, that was very clear. What do you think of (in a home set-up) using a raapberry pi or other low power server to be the third node of the cluster? Is It feasible? Of course I should set the cluster to NOT be used to host any VM but just as quorum partecipator.

    "Best practise" for a two node proxmox/storage cluster

    Hello, I'm very interested in the HA configurations with two servers and one low power server (like the raspberry PI) for the quorum purposes. Would this allow to have full blown high availability with local mirrored storage (like DRBD9)? Anyone running this setup right now? I would LOVE to see...

    Cluster and HA in 4.x - would love to learn more

    Hello, for a home lab I would like to setup a Proxmox VE 4.2 cluster with local storage for the VMs, mirrored presumably with DRBD9. However, I learned that I cannot implement HA without having a third node. I tryed learning why is that, and I stumbled upon concepts like quorum, split brain and...
