    Proxmox for Raspberry Pi 4 with Ceph

    Imagine: A cluster of Raspberry Pi 4's each with 4gb of RAM and full Gigabit capable of running LXC containers with HA failover and Ceph storage. Use of ZRAM could allow around 2.5 to 3gb of actual container memory usage per Raspberry Pi 4 node, limiting Ceph bandwidth to say 800mbps could...

    Node of last resort Quorum

    t.lamprecht, thank you for the brilliant explanation. Two nodes at each "site" plus an external quorum member sound like the way to go.

    Node of last resort Quorum

    I have a 3 node Proxmox cluster and I'm wanting to add a fourth node in a different location in the building with it's own UPS that can act as a "Node of last resort". Eg, the main server rack fails (UPS, switch or extended power outage) but this node will have its own UPS that can run for a...

    Ceph mons fail with cluster firewall rules

    Bingo, I think I've solved it when I saw this: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/host-unreachable-with-firewall.49273/#post-230218 "If you remove the source address it should be any (0.0.0.0/0). If you specify one it is assumed to be /32." In my ceph config: cluster network = 192.168.7.0/24...

    Ceph mons fail with cluster firewall rules

    With zero changes for the last week, I just logged in today to find Ceph broken (couldn't communicate with other nodes), I disabled the firewall and it all started working again. What is best practice RE Proxmox hosts and ceph firewall? I even tried complete allow all access via firewall and...

    Ceph mons fail with cluster firewall rules

    You gave me a tip (thank you!), firewalls were enabled on all nodes except for one. I disabled and re-enabled the firewall on each node, now for some reason it works with the firewall enabled using the Ceph macro.

    Ceph mons fail with cluster firewall rules

    Hey folks, I'm seeing an issue when the cluster firewall is enabled with the Ceph Macro (both in and out). 1) Enable firewall 2) Immediately ceph fills with mons going down and keeps going until the firewall is disabled. I've even tried setting the default input and output policies to ACCEPT...

    New Ceph OSD not showing up

    The OSD was intially created using the GUI, I then followed the steps in the above post. It's probably possible to fix the issue by just running the last few steps although I didn't test it.

    New Ceph OSD not showing up

    Hey folks, Reporting a solution for a problem I saw just recently with a new OSD not showing up in Proxmox web GUI or "ceph osd tree". To resolve I erased the drive (sda): dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M count=1024 conv=fdatasync Created a new OSD: pveceph createosd /dev/sda Get the...

    Home Subscription

    I've asked previously, can we please have a home / hobbyist license for up to 5 nodes at a reasonable price. Similar concept to Royal TS personal bundle "Royal TS/X + Royal Server Personal License".

    Automatically change vcpu's to allow failover to less powerful node

    Hey folks, I've got a small 3 node proxmox cluster, some nodes have different numbers of cpu cores. This stops vm's assigned more vcpus than available on another node from failing over to the less powerful node. Can we please have an option in the GUI to if necessary shutdown a vm that needs...

    Yea but there is still the no subscription pop-up everytime I login or click on a NUC.

    Home Subscription

    I'd like to support the project but it's not economical considering I only use it for my home network. I've got a few NUC's, one runs Plex, another Domoticz Home Automation software and then a Ubuntu machine running VNC. There need's to be a practical subscription model for this type of setup...

    Does anyone tried zRam?

    Nice catch RE swappiness, I copy this script between machines frequently and pulled this from one of my Raspberry Pi's. A value of about 10 is more suitable for Proxmox I think (if you want the kernel not to use swap unless absolutely nessesary, then value should be 1). I've changed the script...
