    [SOLVED] FYI: do not extend Ceph with OSDs connected via USB

    Just written down for your amusement, on a lazy, dark and rainy Sunday afternoon: Someone (me) might try to extend a Ceph cluster by adding NVMe (or other SSDs) via USB3 Adapters. For a small homelab this should be feasable, isn't it? My three PVE nodes already run a single Ceph OSD on an...

    Is it possible to configure two Network interfaces as a BOND to be on the same Network? I imagine it's better for performance & HA vs using only one interafce for each net. also..

    [SOLVED] Ceph tmp folders filling up /tmp on local storage

    Hi community, I noticed that in the last few months, ceph is filling the /tmp partition on storage "local" more and more. Currently, there is more than 1,1T of data in there, all with ceph.XXXXXX folders containing cephfs_data subfolders. This hasn't been so "bad" before. Is that a problem with...

    [SOLVED] What happens when one of the raided disks dies in a 3-server HA system?

    Indeed, Proxmox will not work when 2 out of 3 disks die in shared storage. My question is what happens when 2 disks in servers are RAID 1(shared storage) and one of the disks from two servers die? Will the Proxmox server use the raided disks or will it die?

    Good afternoon. I am experiencing problems with poor ceph performance, with dd showing good results, but integration with a VM with a disk on ceph raises doubts and problems. For example, the time echo command can be executed both 00.000 ms and 02.000ms and varies in this interval, that is, it...
