found this issue on analyzing proxmox for production use
for me it is fully unclear if the query and the answer is matching
1. if I assign MEM resources, lets say 64GB RAM (without ballooning) to a VM via proxmox
does proxmox (KVM) do NOT allocate the full 64GB RAM on starting the VM...
the issue is if i can import the users and domains from plesk to PMG?
e.g. it would be required to have
- domains
- mailboxes
- mail-aliases
- username
- password
Sure to configure a smtp relay shall be clear for SMTP, but...
IMAP + POP3 is also required
therefore asking here
I am looking for a solution to handle multiple plesk servers via one HA PMG solution
I would like to have a option to sync the user accounts from plesk to PMG, so that the users are having a central dns for smtp, imap and pop3
(along with the features PMG provides)
So PMG shall know on what...
thanks for the answers, so the backend storage has to support it.
Let me try to summarize:
ZFS
can only linear going back in one path, no nesting?
In my above example only
aSnapshot01 > aSnapshot01-subSnap01 > aSnapshot01-subSnap01-subSubSnap01
or
aSnapshot01 > aSnapshot01-subSnap02
or...
Hi out there!
I am wondering what I did wrong that I cannot create tree-snapshots / nested snapshots with proxmox?
Means something like
-+-aSnapshot01
| |
| +-aSnapshot01-subSnap01
| | |
| | +-aSnapshot01-subSnap01-subSubSnap01
| | |
| |...
most important details are missing, the IO during normal operation
As written by Dunuin, RAID5 is great for reading... On writing it depends on the quality of controller how well it can "push back" the IO load for the disks to optimize access.
BUT
you can limit bandwidth on your disk on the VM...
on servers, especially with that much firepower, I have never needed such fast sequential bandwidth. Servers with that firepower have typically tons of workload to calculate and thus to write a lot of data in non sequential manner or to read a lot of random data with short sequential data...
Thank you for your tests.
For me where is a drawback of the 4k approach, which is the wear level of the NVMe. Depending on your data, you write more as you require to write.
About the Bandwidth, for me it looks like your disks are limited by the connector and only the half bandwidth can be...
thank you, just wondering if the zfs setup has to be done in a specific way?
e.g. do the nodes have to be identical from the storage configuration?
or is it possible to be non symmetric like having a very fast NVMe based SSD nodes (thus typically small disks) and having e.g. 1 big spindle based...
I am wondering how I could solve a cold standby solution for proxmox?
In vmware I did a snapshot, rsynced the VM to a new storage on a different server, and the system was in a defined snapshot state. Depending on how much hours of work could be lost, this procedure was repeated regularly...
@matpuk your test sounds like comparing tomato with potato
So what have you tested?
your PVE: contains SSD only
your NAS: has SSDs and HDDs
so you are not testing the same things!
It would be comparable if your NAS and your PVE would run only on SSDs
@ITT solving problems with killing it...
Hi there,
I am pretty fresh with proxmox but using over +15y vmware already. So not fully fresh on virtual environments.
I was looking for an way to manage sets of VMs.
e.g. would like to define
realtime VMs:
- low disk IO requirements
- high net IO requirements
- very high CPU requirements...
