    VLANs won't work

    surely: # network interface settings auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface eth0 inet manual auto eth1 iface eth1 inet static address 10.255.255.1 netmask 255.255.255.252 auto vmbr0 iface vmbr0 inet static address 192.168.161.58 netmask 255.255.255.0...

    VLANs won't work

    My setup is simple, a PC with 1 CPU (decent desktop PC with AMD Phenom II X4 and 2 Realtek NICs). One NIC connects to backup host, and work perfectly, but the othe one point to network and should support VLANs. I set up default VLAN (1) and two other VLANs to test the situation: eth0.7...

    Proxmox (KVM) vs Hyper-V as failover cluster hosts

    I've used DRBD and live migration before I realized I can not easily restore VMs that was running on failed node. Even if we loose slave node, not the master one, I just can't go to web gui and click 'migration', so even if node is dead all VMs on it still 'on it', and I can't start it on some...

    Proxmox (KVM) vs Hyper-V as failover cluster hosts

    If I know how to implement that I'd make HA myself. I also won't put beta production, so I'd better learn how the HA will be done in 2.x and maybe try to port it to my 1.8. Hyper-V is surely vendor-lock for us, but as long it is free and documentation is available we can live with it (I mean...

    Proxmox (KVM) vs Hyper-V as failover cluster hosts

    Don't want to start another holy war, but I really need arguments to implement Proxmox and not Hyper-V on some of my company's servers. My colleagues are to give Hyper-v a chance, I'm not. Our aim is to shorten VMs downtime in case of hardware failure. That is, if in cluster of two...

    Real HA - if it is possible with 1.8?

    Hello, hope my questions won't be too silly. I've tried cluster config of two Proxmox PCs with DRBD (though my DRBD performance was too poor, I believe it just question of tuning it up) and I've found ability to live migrate VMs from one host to another is something really nice. But beside...

    FS over LVM over DRBD?

    Oh, that's impressive! But wait, I can't get an idea: my disks are at most idle, my CPU is low loaded too, but DRBD won't use any of these resources. So why adding some Gigs of RAID cache and dozen of disks given you that much difference? I mean, my host machines are looks like they capable to...

    FS over LVM over DRBD?

    Thank you guys for your replies to my question, now I got a lot of things to think of. First, I need to say I use really 'poor man' PCs as cluster hosts, the reason is that before invest in cluster scheme we at company where I work decided to try to build clusted out of very simply PCs (for...

    FS over LVM over DRBD?

    Hello, I use Proxmox in cluster configuration and use DRBD (poor man's shared storage) to use live migration feature (I use KVM). In fact, the VM images are stored on LVM VG, not on "real" file system, so I just can not create disk image of type different from "raw". Lack of filesystem is...

    VLANs in cluster - traffic won't run through

    That was something I couldn't imagine to be so easy. Thank you, I've set it up that way easily!

    VLANs in cluster - traffic won't run through

    Hello, I see very strange situation, I just can't make VLANs on Proxmox cluster to work. Here is the setup: PC with one on-board NIC and another NIC in PCI slot: eth0: RTL8168d/8111d at 0xffffc90011fd0000, 6c:62:6d:e7:fe:4e, XID 081000c0 IRQ 27 eth1: RTL8169sb/8110sb at 0xffffc9000145ac00...

    How to migrate KVM VM from cli?

    Hi, I'm trying to setup (kind of) HA cluster with two Proxmox servers. I've set up cluster and DRBR, and I'm able to do live migrate KVM VMs from one server to another. Now I need to do that automatically as server goes down. As far I think I can user heartbeat program to track the fact that...

    Setup with DRBD: won't able to do migration (either live or not)

    Hello, I'm a bit newbie in DRBD-backed cluster config, and face pretty strange behaviour of cluster that is build strictly by manual: I set up two identical machines (these are desktop PCs, I took them for test purpose, but the hardware is good so I believe It should work with no problem): -...
