    Considering building a proxmox 3 node cluster with ZFS replication

    Yes. And yes. It has been discussed so many times... I won't repeat the arguments. Yes. I must admin that in my Homelab all of my NVMe lack PLP (while nearly all SSDs have it). For my $Dayjob cluster I would never do so. Yes, NVMe has a much higher IOPS (and bandwidth) than SATA, but the...

    Budget PC Build for Proxmox + CVI42 VM (with GPU Passthrough)

    If that is your only goal then skip virtualization and install bare metal! If you want to run several VMs then sum up the RAM requirements and add 4 to 8 GiB for the OS and cache. Then double that resulting number ;-) Given that that software requires 16+8 GiB for server+client 32 GiB Ram...

    Considering building a proxmox 3 node cluster with ZFS replication

    If the respective admin knows these tools (and their possible pitfalls) they will work fine. Both tools are well established and tested. But for a new user of the PVE eco system (with regard to replication) I do highly recommend to stay away from third party apps first. Use the mechanism PVE...

    problems with apt update with paid subscription on version 9.0.10

    First remove the double entries, mentioned by @janus57 , then: On my PVE's there is only "Ceph Squid" offered in the "Repositories --> Add:Repository" drop-down menu. Maybe you should upgrade from Quincy to Squid - but do so following a guide! (And creating a backup first.)...

    Possible to expand zfs raidz2 Array

    Six of them in an additional/second vdev? Yes. This has the advantage of doubling the IOPS of the pool. The disadvantage is that there is no automatic re-balancing (yet). Yes. That's the "classic" approach. It has the advantage to not require additional disks and space to connect them. Since...

    HA starts VM after proper shutdown

    There is no state it can inherited. It can only start; it can only boot to then be running again. If a host is dead the VM is too ;-)

    HA starts VM after proper shutdown

    That question makes no sense. When a host is powered off a live migration is simply not possible. Live migration requires the source VM to be running! ;-)

    [SOLVED] QDevice Deployment

    I believe this is a myth :-) Let's take a look. I've added a QDev to a four node virtual test-cluster. Normal operation: ~# pvecm status Cluster information ------------------- Name: pn2 Config Version: 5 Transport: knet Secure auth: on Quorum information...

    ZFS Config Help for Proxmox Backup Server (PBS) - 22x 16TB HDDs (RAIDZ2 vs. dRAID2)

    The SLOG will only help with SYNC writes. As far as I know PBS .chunks are written "normal". (Can someone prove me wrong?) And that SLOG will accept incoming data of one single 5 seconds interval while a second TXG (transaction group) is being flushed out to the HDDs. So it stores 10 seconds...

    Set up ZPool, Replication, and HA - no snapshots. Grand total of less than 10TB worth of data. 32TB STZ reporting full, io-fault on a VM???

    I'm not sure what this is. Maybe RaidZ3? You may show zpool status to show topology information. (Preferable in text form and in ...-tags.) RaidZ/Z2/Z3 can be tricky and may seem to waste a large amount of space. Example...

    Node being offline out of a sudden - how to investigate

    There are too many options without additional information. Feel free to add some more technical details regarding your system. (Cluster? Server hardware? Mini-PC? Amount of Ram? ECC Ram? HDD? SSD? ZFS? Number of VMs? PCI-passthrough? ... ... ... ) Try to find hints regarding the crashes in...

    Wie viel RAM für Proxmox ZFS RAID

    Ja, bei weitem. https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/ZFS_on_Linux#sysadmin_zfs_limit_memory_usage : " ... will be set to 10 % of the installed physical memory," - also vielleicht etwas über 3 GiB.

    Different storage amount shown in GUI and df -h

    The 152 G is the virtual disk size, given to the virtual guest. The 58 GB is the space of one (or more, you didn't show us the output of df) filesystem(s). Often both are coupled and give similar size - but that is not a must. Examine the partition table from inside the guest and verify...

    Request for help regarding random crashes

    You should have installed version 9, not 8.x then! Try to find hints regarding the crashes in the Journal. If it happened during the previous boot you can look at the end of the relevant journal like this: journalctl -b -1 -p warning -e For a description of "-b" etc. consult man journalctl...

    Yes, that's burned into my own mind too. But "something" has changed. I can read 5 GB from both devices with the same speed: ~# dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/zero bs=1M count=5000 5000+0 records in 5000+0 records out 5242880000 bytes (5.2 GB, 4.9 GiB) copied, 8.25407 s, 635 MB/s ~# dd...
