iscsi

Hi everyone, This is my first post under Proxmox forum. I am very new with Proxmox and KVM in general, so I am going to ask all my questions and hopefully they are not too dumb! 1- Has anyone managed to get ZFS over iSCSI done to EMC storage lineup? (this case is PowerStore) 2- Experience with...

This is the same error that I posted here. However, the resolutions in that thread are not working. I've narrowed down the problem as a multipath issue, but I'm creating a new thread because this situation seems to be unique. Node A and B were clustered and are running v6.4-13 and are identical...

Hi, I'm testing proxmox with our last gen hardware. I've got a couple servers I want to use in a proxmox cluster, but don't have a storage. So I installed Ubuntu on another spare server and thought I would use it as iSCSI target. Right now I have a big raid device on the server and am in the...

We have a small PVE cluster that ran PVE 6.4, and when we upgraded them to PVE 7.0, our backup jobs for VMs failed (but not CTs). We have collected the following diagnoses. The majority of our compute servers are HPE ProLiant DL388 Gen10, with Intel X710-DA2 SFP+ NIC (HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port...

I mounted my synology nas via iSCSI and created a LVM on it and made it avaiable to my 3 nodes. One of those nodes is unused and is just there for quorum. On that node that runs no VMs I see really high transfer from my NAS to that proxmox instance (45MB/s continuously). Even after I remove...

Our current Proxmox cluster is connected to a single TrueNas Core Server. Most of the VMs are stored on a NFS-share, as this seemed to be an easy and usable solution at the time of installation. And actually it works quite well, but Snapshots via qcow2 aren't always nice to work with and there...

Hi Guys. I´m thinking of using either TrueNAS or Windows Server with it´s Storage capabilites. I´m not really sure which one to focus to have it as a Storage backend for my proxmox cluster which consist of 5 nodes. Mainly i want to have a very fast storage with high IO. Disks and everything...

Hi. We plan to buy 2 unit storage for datastore and backup storage. Currently our setup 6 node compute with proxmox-v5.2 hypervisor. Since our currently CEPH storage almost 6 years, so we plan to buy to replace with the new storage and approach not using hyperconverged CEPH storage anymore and...

Hi, I followed the guide on the wiki at Proxmox ISCSI Installation, but instead of installing Debian Stretch I choosed to install Debian Buster in order to install Proxmox 6.4. Following the guide is not hard and it works fine until the step where one should install the "pve-kernel"-package...

Following instructions found here: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Cluster_Manager Did a fresh install and after creating the cluster on an existing node, I went thought the join process via the web GUI. After completing it, I appear to have a cluster. So I decided to play with a machine...

PVE 6.4-6 on both nodes I'm trying to set up ZFS over iSCSI to share disks in my cluster. I have followed the instructions from the official docs. I confirmed that I can log in to each node with ssh -i /etc/pve/priv/zfs/192.168.1.1_id_rsa root@192.168.1.1 replacing the IP with each node's...

Hello friends! I want to open up a debate - well, I was hoping to - about the iSCSI disc space assignation. The thing is: let's say that I have a server with several storage spaces and that server is connected to PVE. For the purpose of this, let us not go into the matter how they are...

Hi, I am trying to configure multipath with a DELL SC5020 iscsi storage. I followed the official Proxmox guide but can't get it to work. I think the problem is in the configuration of the multipath.conf file. I am using Proxmox 6.4 I've been testing various configurations of the multipath.conf...

What is the proper set of steps to add a new node to a cluster when using shared LVM over iSCSI and multipath? I have had mixed results with this. I've been migrating my servers from ESXi to Promox one at a time. Adding the first 2 nodes to the initial Proxmox host cluster went fine, But the...

Hello, I am setting up a Proxmox cluster with 3 servers, and 1 shared iSCSI storage. It seems that I can only access this storage in iscsi mode (I asked a question about this at https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/zfs-via-iscsi.74843/post-378849) With this setup, what are my options for VM...

Hello! I'm running a PVE 5.2 cluster with 4 nodes. The cluster is attached to a SAN, an HP P2000 G3 iSCSI. VMs are hosted on the SAN. The first controller of the SAN failed. Everything is running on the second controller, but I can't manage PVE anymore. Although VMs are running, it seems that...

I see a lot of organization using NFS instead of ISCSI for vms and data storage. It's apparently more to ease operations: backup can be done on the vm files and do not require a separate server. Is this true? How much performance you are really losing when using NFS instead of ISCSI? The only...

I recently discovered that a lot of people around me are using nfs instead of iscsi on a PVE platform. The main reason for it seems that it’s easier to backup an nfs-based solution thaan an iscsi one, since on The remote disk everything is a file. Is this a general trend? What would bring...

I have been working on moving the storage of VM's from an NFS share on my TrueNas core server to a ZFS over iSCSI share on my TrueNas server. I have ZFS over iSCSI all set up and it appears to be operational. I transferred of one of the VM hard drives from the NFS storage to the ZFS storage but...

I set up a new instance of TrueNas 12 Core. I am attempting to setup iscsi storage to TrueNas in Proxmox. The vdev was created in TrueNas along with the iscsi target. I have created the iscsi connection in proxmox and it is showing as available but receive the following error when I attempt to...
