    Proxmox performance with install on SSD ZFS RAID1 versus HDD RAID1

    I'm attempting to turbo charge my old Dell Poweredge R515 servers (PCI 2.0) with dual NVME PCI cards and M.2 sticks. I'm experimenting with the QNAP QM2-2P-244A and the Ableconn PEXM2-130 (Startech) cards. I'm attempting to use 2 Kingston 480GB DC1000b for OS and 2 Samsung 960GB 983 DCT for...

    [TUTORIAL] bootable NVME install on old hardware made easy with pcie adapter and clover

    I installed Proxmox on (2) M.2 NVME/PCIe adapter on older server that does not support PCI bifurcation. Installation was ZFS RAID1. I created the clover bootable USB with BDUtility. It formats the USB stick in Windows, downloads Clover and install it on the stick...

    Backing up Proxmox/CEPH node configuration

    My OS resides on a raid 1. One of the drives has failed. I was thinking that it might not be a bad idea to backup the entire node config just incase I lose the other drive while replacing the failed one. In which case I would need to do a fresh install and "restore" the backed up config. I'm...

Which would be the preferred HA method to configure the Proxmox Cluster/Corosync network? in a LAG or using the ring/link method? I have read many...

    Multiple Ceph Clusters on Same Network

    I actually ended up creating a separate vlan for the new ceph network and multi-homed each node. New bluestore cluster is now in production. I'm seeing almost double the write speeds over the old filestore.
