    Installing on LSI MegRAID SAS (ServeRAID M1015) , no boot

    I have 2 of these and you need to boot in the Web BIOS for the RAID card. CTRL-Y is for the CLI and I can't remember the keys for the Web BIOS but it shows up during boot on the same line. The Web BIOS has an option to enable boot on a device. Serge

    virtual nas (Freenas?), pve guidelines/best practices?

    Just get a Western Digital Cloud Drive. Cheap and easy to share as NFS for backups. You can replicate it and make easy off-site storage for your backups. Can't be simpler than that and works quite well. Serge

    Installing Ceph MDS on Proxmox

    Mounting with ceph-fuse works. However, you have to install ceph-fuse: apt-get install ceph-fuse I mounted the CephFS in a directory (/tmp/CephFS) within each node using the storage LAN and configured the storage as a shared directory within the Proxmox WebGUI. The new CephFS storage is now...

    advice: tricky buttons (reset & restart)

    My 2 cents: This is a simple request and it makes sense. Even just moving the button away from the others would help. How about taking it in as a GUI improvement and implement it on the next release of the Web GUI? Serge

    Few Ceph questions

    Not sure about any licensing conflict but it may be possible to include something like this to improve the PVE Ceph interface within PVE web management. Although priority for this would not be great... Unless there is an easy way to make it an "add-on" that would survive between GUI upgrades...

    [SOLVED] Ceph stopped talking after 3.3 upgrade

    Re: Ceph stopped talking after 3.3 upgrade I am curious how come you are using ceph-deploy and not pveceph? The recommended Proxmox method is to use pveceph. Is there an advantage to use ceph-deploy? What changes must we do to use ceph-deploy and still take advantage of the Proxmox cluster...
