Thanks for this reference :) so the point of difference if selected is Journal-based replication as an option compared to snapshot replication which is what ZFS uses. both are crash consistent except that "Journal-based" replication can be more accurate up to the second compared to snapshot...

OK so its DR. Is there an automatic way to trigger a fail-over or is this all manually done at this stage? So would you say its equivalent to ZFS replication between sites? Any additional positives/ negatives of using RMB-Mirroring? thanks always appreciate your input. speak soon. ""Cheers G

Hey @Alwin happy NY. im just checking in on if there has been any more detailed testing on the rbd-mirror feature in ProxMox? it’s something that has caught my eye vs ZFS replication. wondering if the replication is any better or worse for DR. would it be considered HA or DR ? ””Cheers G

Hey @hacman happy NY. just curious you mentioned DRBD are you using this per vm or per host to replicate all VM’s? are you still using Xen or have you made the switch to Proxmox? ””Cheers G

thank you. are you using ZFS with the ASMEDIA ? ""Cheers G

Hi @bytemine just wondering if this issue was resolved? Where you running ZFS on the onboard ASMEDIA SATA? ""Cheers G

Hi @Mr.Goodcat just wondering if you are using the onboard SATA ASMEDIA for ZFS? have any other issues popped up ? ""Cheers G

thanks mate that worked. for what ever reason the enterprise repo was disabeled, no idea why as its a new install and is normally enabled by default. any hoo, uncommitted it ran apt update && apt full-upgrade and problem resolved :) thanks for the heads up, i may not have checked the repos...

Hey @wolfgang would there be any reason why our 6.2-4 wont upgrade to the latest 6.3-2. not sure why but we have 1 host that upgraded to 6.3-2 and another that wont upgrade past 6.2-4. have rebooted and tried the apt update && apt full-upgrade still no luck we keep getting the below output...

not sure if you have capacity or ability to test ZFS over iSCSI. If you are not running LACP you may be able to. It will give you native ZFS features on shared storage. COW, Snapshots, Replication etc just food for thought :) good luck with the upgrade. ""Cheers G

from my understanding each vm will have its own zvol so basically it’s a volume to it self. yes for snapshots and rollback for an individual vm. if my understanding is correct the benefit to this is granular Management of the vm storage, replication can be set at the TrueNas/FreeNas layer...

How are you connecting to the TrueNas storage array? iscsi, nfs, ZFS over iSCSI? iscsi normally can have the time outs adjusted to be more or less, default time out on VMware is about 20 sec. normally with dual controller modules active/ passive or active/active the failover between...

Good find!

sorry let me clarify. internal comms to local local VM's there will be no loss of performance as its just an internal bridge nothing leaves the host or even the Nic so you shoudl get native IO speed on the host which will be greater than the Nic bandwidth. it's just a bridge device...

network speed will be almost native. Darkproduct is talking about Read/ Write speed to his ZFS pool if im reading his post correctly. Network is about bandwidth so if you are running 1 GB Nic then you should get about 115-125 MB/s = 1000 Gbps bandwodth approx across the network. The bridge...

Yes it’s possible. are you thinking 1 Internet facing + 1 internal facing? if you have the same bridged network on the host you can just create 2. If on the vm and map them to the appropriate brodge network. it’s documented in the admin guide how to create a bridge...

Thanks Alwin there is a lot of documentation to go through it’s not a small task :( did you notice any specific pointers for the single socket Epycs by any chance, we‘ve opted for the 7502p which are the single socket models. I’ll try to slowly start going through the docs. any pointers or...

Thanks @Alwin which of the tuning guides do you recommend for this use case scenario? ””Cheers G

Hi All i've been doing some searches for securing the PMG web GUI for the root user and haven't come across anything specific. Is there an option for 2fa? Would there bay any issues if we installed Fail2Ban? Nothing is jumping out in the Administrators guide. any assistance would be greatly...

Hi @j4ys0n just wondering if this was ever resolved. currently looking at the same card. ""Cheers G
