    [SOLVED] 4 ceph nodes with osd and total of 5 monitors

    Hi all Would it make sense to have 4 ceph nodes with OSDs and a fifth with just 1 monitor? In all I'd have 6 Proxmox servers where 2 are just used for CPU and RAM (no space for OSDs) whereas one of these would be used to also install a monitor on. So I could have the 4/2 pool rule which makes...

    Windows KVM slow write speed (not over 40 MB/s)

    Hey all I tried so many settings with my Windows KVM and I can never get over 40MB/s. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm using the newest virtio drivers, I tried the local disk and an NFS share on freenas. I have used SSDs on the freenas in a raid1 and I still can't get over 40MB/s. I tried...
