    Cluster with 2 nodes, no HA, what to do if 1 node is down?

    You can use these directives in your cluster.conf file: two_node="1" expected_votes="1" These directives will be useful only if your PVE cluster have only two nodes, then, your two nodes never will lose quorum, and you can do anything you want ( goodbye to the command: pvecm e 1 and other...

    Questions while setting up a new proxmox server

    I will tell you about that i am sure: 1- If your processor have 8 cores, and it is distributed in 4 cores with 8 threads, then for each VM each thread will be a core (although in the physical hardware is not so, but the same occurs without virtualization, each OS see a thread of processor as a...

    Debian VM - hard disk / cpu settings

    Okumba, LVM as block device only will be util for have a space of disk available for be used as virtual disks for your VMs (or images as it says in the GUI of PVE), Then, it will not have a file system that can be used for others purposes, as backups, templates, ISOs, etc. For get this, you...

    Debian VM - hard disk / cpu settings

    About of the amount of RAM, i believe that 6 GB RAM for each VM will be good, but for be very sure, for each VM the best option will be: 1- Start only a VM at the same time in a same PVE host 2- Assign lots of RAM to the VM, it is only for do this test (first apply a shutdown, and after you...

    Debian VM - hard disk / cpu settings

    My suggestions: CPU = Host, because enable all his flags cache for performace = writeback, but at risk of losing information if the physical host crashes or is breaks cache for security = writethrough, isn't fast, but is the more sure, you will not lose information, and writethroug also do cache...

    pvcreate /dev/drbd0 - device not found, software raid, drbd and lvm

    Your welcome, and only for be more clear, always that the security of data is the priority, you must use only a of these two options: Directsync: never do cache, only writes in the platters of the disk, and generally used for SAN, iSCSI, etc of high speed communications. In several cases also...

    Error 500: cant upload to storage type 'lvm'

    Then don't use LVM. Use a file system (comment: LVM as block device is much quick that a file system): With this example, you will can not to do live-backups of CTs, only of VMs, if you want to do live-backups of CTs and VMs, you must use LVM as file system and with a good space free in the VG...

    pvcreate /dev/drbd0 - device not found, software raid, drbd and lvm

    If you don't have a Hardware RAID with BBU (Backup Battery Unit), for security reasons and gain a better speed for your VMs, use writethrough (you don't lose information if the node crashes, and you will have a buffer of blocks of writes in the physical host using only his free memory) and also...

    Error 500: cant upload to storage type 'lvm'

    longhair, if you want a lvm local storage, then you only can have virtual disks for your VMs/CTs, and not as for storage of backups, ISOs, etc., if you are sure that this is that you want, follow these steps by CLI: 1- create a partition in the new disk, for example if is for sdb: shell> cgdisk...

    rgmanager deadlock

    Dietmar, correct that this is the 'expected' behavior, but i think that rgmanager need a subsystem of auto recuperation with a set of logical operations for get a successful recovery in this case (be solid as a rock). For other hand, i don't know if i will have some problems, but soon i will...
