    Proxmox Spielwiese (laut gedacht)

    Hey Flo, ich würde an Deiner Stelle mit den beiden stärkeren NUCs einen "Haupt"-Node machen und auf den zweiten mit Storage Replication spielen. Wie hier bereits ausgeführt wurde, braucht es auch meiner Einschätzung nach andere Hardware, um Freude an einem PVE/Ceph-Cluster zu haben. Viel Spaß...

    Fehler beim Aktualisieren.

    Hey Flopsi, herzlich Willkommen in der Proxmox-Community! :) Ja, Du hast irgendein Netzwerkproblem. DNS scheint es eher nicht zu sein, die Namen können den Ausgaben zufolge aufgelöst werden. Poste bitte die Ausgaben von ifconfig und route -n. Und beschreibe vielleicht ein wenig das...

    Route all VMs through a firewall VM - confused about bridges

    My best idea so far is: 1. do a PCI passthrough of your physical NIC into the pfSense VM (as "WAN" interface). 2. connect the second vNIC of this VM to vmbr0 ("LAN" interface) 3. connect your PVE host and all the other VMs to vmbr0 Still sounds wrong to me :-D But maybe somebody can say whether...

    Route all VMs through a firewall VM - confused about bridges

    Hey! to put all VMs "behind" your pfSense VM I would do what you're suggesting: Leave the "default bridge" vmbr0 untouched and create a second one "vmbr1". Give two vNICs to your pfSense VM, assign the "WAN" interface to vmbr0 and the "LAN" interface to vmbr1. Finally connect all the other VMs...

    No-Subscription license - No valid subscription message

    From your own research you know that this message exists since many years, there were some discussions about it (not "tons of" as you claimed) - and it's still there. Maybe this can lead to the conclusion that it's not a bug, but a conscious decision of the developers. ;) Concerning nagware...

    Backup speed limited to 1 Gbps?

    Hi, just to be clear. You run a PVE machine with internal storage (LVM), and a NAS machine. Both are connected to a 10 GBit/s network. Are there any 1GBit/s connections? Are there any further network connections at all? If your NAS ist linux based (or similar) I would first try some iperf...

    No-Subscription license - No valid subscription message

    Hi Luke, yes, I can accept this point of view, but here our opinions differ: In my view one extra click after logging in is far away from "super annoying". You find what you're searching for. ;) And yes, thanks to the fact that PVE is open source you can get rid of this message. If this...

    No-Subscription license - No valid subscription message

    Hey Luke, I think I didn't get your point yet, but nethertheless I try to answer: 1. Proxmox VE is open source software 2. Access to the "Test Repository" and to the "No-Subscription-Repository" is free (as in "free beer") 3. For access to the "Enterprise Repository" you have to pay, and in...

    Proxmox Backup Server (beta)

    Hi, this announcement sounds awesome! :) Will the "repository design" be the same as usual (no-subscription-repo and enterprise-repo)? If yes: Are there any pricing plans for the enterprise repo yet? And if file based restore (of Linux and Windows VMs) really will come true, PBS has the...

    [SOLVED] Ceph - hardware raid compatibility question

    Hi, Yes, it is. We run Broadcom SAS 9300-8i HBAs, which are also based on your controller chip - without any issues so far. Basically the question is: Is your hardware supported by your operating system? In case of a Proxmox/Debian installation the answer is "yes". :) Greets Stephan

    Proxmox VE Ceph Benchmark 2018/02

    Sounds like a very good setup, too! Do you have Windows Server Datacenter licences? If yes, keep in mind that you have to pay per CPU and even physical core. Our thoughts were, using less nodes, saving licensing costs and put these savings into the hardware of the three nodes. This is also why...

    Proxmox VE Ceph Benchmark 2018/02

    You're welcome! :) I'm so happy with this setup so far that it's a lot of fun sharing our experiences. Ah, of course! Each node is based on this hardware and equipped with 2x AMD Epyc 7351 384 GB RAM (DDR4, 2667 MHz) 10x Samsung SM883 1,92 TB connected to a Broadcom HBA 9300-8i 2x Intel...

    Proxmox VE Ceph Benchmark 2018/02

    Thanks for sharing this! Our policy is to be "as standard as possible". So in case of Ceph version we take what the proxmox repos give us (at the moment: nautilus 14.2.9). That's interesting, because the recommendation I get from the proxmox support was to keep "Default (no cache)". Maybe a...

    Proxmox VE Ceph Benchmark 2018/02

    Yes, it it. I just copied an about 6 GB large single file where source and destination a) is the same vdisk b) are different vdisks (at the same VM) My results: no I/O drops, "constant" rates (as constant as a Windows progress bar can be :D) with a) about 200 MB/s and b) about 350 MB/s...

    Proxmox VE Ceph Benchmark 2018/02

    Hi, we run a three node PVE/Ceph cluster with 10x Samsung SM883 1,92 TB per node (very "standard" - replication of 3, one large Ceph pool connected via RBD, dedicated 10 GBit/s mesh network for Ceph). Inside there are a couple of Windows Server 2012 R2 VMs. What kind of performance test would...

    Migrating Windows XP from a dead system?

    I'm sorry, I don't remember something like this - XP is soo long ago... :-D Yes, it is! And if storage capacity is no problem I would even do a second copy of this raw image as a backup. You're welcome! (Don't be too sad when your're first attempt booting the XP-VM ends up with a bluescreen -...

    Migrating Windows XP from a dead system?

    Hey, without testing it in detail I would suggest the following steps: 1. Remove the physical block device from the broken machine 2. Connect it to a working machine 3. Boot this machine from a Live-Linux 4. Do a dd-based raw copy of the block device to somewhere else (a second block device, a...

    Windows Server 2016 VM (RDS): How to improve user graphic experience?

    Yes, you're right! So I will buy a P1000, put it into the server mentioned above, passthrough it to our RDS server and see what happens. And I will build a Debian based thinclient connecting via xfreerdp. ... I'm so excited! :) And of course I will report my results! Greets Stephan

    Windows Server 2016 VM (RDS): How to improve user graphic experience?

    And what about the client hardware? Can it really be thin, for example Intel Celeron N3160 2 GB RAM Intel HD Graphics 400 (booting Debian from PXE)

    Windows Server 2016 VM (RDS): How to improve user graphic experience?

    Thank you so much for taking the time! The graphic cards you mentioned... oh my god, they're sooo expensive! :eek: And... licensing a graphic card? I think I'm too old for this! :D Joking apart: What do you think about the following setup: RDSH with 4 CPUs, 16 GB RAM and an NVIDIA Quadro P1000...
