    About multipath and lvm

    Hello everyone, I have configured 5 Proxmox nodes to use FC multipath. The only way to achieve high availability is to mount them as LVM, but LVM does not seem to support QCOW2 format disks. I want thin disks, otherwise disk resources will be consumed quickly, but I also want HA. Is there any...

    Shutdown VM on failover to free resources

    The following scenario: Node 1 & 2 are a HA cluster. Node 1 hosts VM 1 Node 2 hosts VM 2 & VM 3 -> Node 1 crashes. VM 1 is handed over to node 2 by HA job. Is there a way to automatically shutdown VM 3 (low prio) to free resources on Node 2 for the downtime of Node 1 (duration of failover)?

    Disabled / enabled spontaneously 1 node proxmox

    Hi! I have a proxmox cluster of 3 nodes, (node1, node2, node3) but 2 days ago I started to see a picture of how the cluster is losing node2. This node is active, it works, the VM continues to work on it, I have access via ssh and web. All nodes see it on the network. This problem prevents VM...

    HA - backup mode stop

    Hi folks, I was wondering if there is any way to perform a 'stop' mode backup at HA controlled VMs or if anyone has a sweet solution for this. Cannot execute a backup with stop mode on a HA managed and enabled Service. Use snapshot mode or disable the Service. This is the regular status...

    ha-crm unable to read file

    We've been working on upgrading our proxmox/ceph cluster to new machines and 10G for ceph. Another system engineer was in the process of removing 2 nodes from the cluster. He followed a tutorial that suggested manually removing the old nodes from /etc/pve/nodes. This was obviously false...

    Best option for getting HA to work across two servers?

    Hi, I recently scored a good deal on two used Fujitsu TX100 S3p servers. I seem to remember Proxmox supporting the use of a quorum disk to replace the third required node in a cluster so I wanted to set these two servers up as a HA Proxmox cluster with external iSCSI storage. However the...
