    SSD HW Raid 10 or ZFS Raid 10 SSD

    Yes, I also think the aproach to achive storage has luckily changed and I am very happy in advance to get out of this controller/firmware/bbu pain. You can follow this also on the migrations the brands of controller-manufactors are migrating from new owner to newer owner. ... and we don't need...

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    I was told by a friend to check "VM protection" on the option tab. I wondered where to find such and noticed this feature is on proxmox VE4.x. mine was a VE3.4 ... Now I`m upgrading everywhere and checking those "VM protection" checkbox. Greets&thanks

    SSD HW Raid 10 or ZFS Raid 10 SSD

    Hi sahostking, I am driven by the same questions like you. I decided to reply to this thread, because nobody is explaining what is changing around just using another filesystem. ZFS needs much RAM to perform adequate. FreeNAS guys say not to install their system under 8GB RAM, other say after...

    High risk of dataloss through human oversight

    Hi there, I would also propose to place much more space between the 'remove'-bottons. At this moment I am thinking of at least 5km. In my case I had a marked (stopped) vm on the left and the marked tab backup. While getting rid of the old backups I pressed the wrong Remove-'button' (im my...

    ProxMox 3.2 to 3.3, impressions and a problem

    hi macday, hi spirit, the pc-440fx-1.7 line didn't do the trick for me. I use W7pro system-builder versions. I'm actually restore my backups from bevore upgrade to a pve 3.2 machine - THE LICENCE IS VALID can probably someone tell me on the short way how to upgrade the last PVE 3.2 to the...

    ProxMox 3.2 to 3.3, impressions and a problem

    Hi, I have another issue related to the "hardware" changes. besides reactivation of win7pro, some other software has a licence problem. So think about twice about upgrade. proxmox is a very great tool and perhaps you may forget about the proprietary stuff running on it. Hope it helps,

    PCI Passthrough

    hi adamb, I aktually don`t use this setup - but plan to do so. As I read your message I can imagine that is a Problem for the seabios of KVM-machines to support a RAID-controller completely. But this is not the fault of seabios, because it probably never was created to support RAID-controller...

    What is the difference between host and vm on the same vmbr?

    Hi, I had a strange behavior between the kvm-VMs and my OpenIndiana storage-box. Onla my VMs were unable to even ping the storage-box. Maybe someone finds it useful to read this post. Due to a fire-alarm i shutted down my storage-box and removed it out of the lab. When i connected it back i...

    Zentayl 2.03 on KVM gives problems on VNC cosole

    Hi there, Had the same problem. My workaround was to disable the windowmanager at startup. I did it the hard way and deinstalled lxdm (lx-displaymanager). Use your local browser for administrating the vm and you are done. Greets, vmanz

    PVE 1.8 - disk performance becomes worse over time

    Hi filgood, I've already bought four of these WD disks and they robbed me some days. Now they are in my shelf until I know whatever I can do with them. They are NOT raid-aware for my opinion. These are so called "green" drives with 4kb-sectorsize. The web is full of people having trouble at...

    Poor fsyncs/second with mdadm raid

    Hmm, I have no experience with other md-raid-levels other than raid1. But I think you should get more out of it. Did you check your drives with a vendor-tool? When I got weak fsyncs/s (with 2.6.24-12) there also was trouble with a disk. Two weeks before I bought a Controller (HP P212 with...

    Poor fsyncs/second with mdadm raid

    Hi blargling, I know about your fsync/s-problematics. Using 2.6.24-kernel is fast at mdraid. Have a look at this threat and my tests. http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/4068-Installguide-proxmox-on-Software-Raid-%28Hetzner-EQ6-server%29 Espacially my post...

    proxmox 2.6.24-10 on Hetzner

    Hi Andreas, When you downgrade the Kernel, did you mention to remove /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules to get it automatically rebuilt on next boot. The older Kernel finds the NIC again and make a new entry in 70-persistent-net.rules. So you reboot an the NIC is now eth1 and you cant...

    Hi tom, Thanks for your reply. I went in my lab this day and worked it out. I am tired like a dog and so I am writing. Sorry about that. First I thougt it might be an error on my partition-scheme, but have a look at yourself: My "first" testsetup (already made it more than one time)...

    Installguide proxmox on Software Raid (Hetzner EQ6 server)

    Hi Ellen, Thank you for your work. I did some 'unsupported' debian software-raid installations also. On my Hetzner EQ-4 and some physical accessible servers everything looked quite well, before I got load on the machines. I checked the machines with pveperf and received very low values (p {...
