Hello, I'd like to install a test cluster with shared iSCSI storage / SAN. I read that the recommended solution is to use it as storage Omnios/Comstar. Can anyone recommend an Omios compatible 40G QSFP+ network card? ( tested ) I'm reading Illumos compatibility list, but is not so reliable, i...

I think I'm in a bit of trouble here. We have a san and it took a lot of effort to get working, but eventually it did through some miracle. I added LVM on top and the first two memebs of the cluster saw it without trouble. Then I realised the other members of the cluster hadn't been set up to...

After a recent SAN issue, it has been recommended that our cluster should be using multipath. In preparation, I installed the various software modules using apt-get but didn't realise that the installation would start the services. I have shutdown and disabled them but now seem to be stuck...

Hey guys currently I'm using proxmox 6.1 and i have created a cluster for high availability. I have one shared iSCSI storage from NetAPP, i want to create a LVM on that iSCSI storage but its asking for Base Volume, but i'm not be able to find that base volume. Please help me. THANKS

Hi All, i found an issue in new 6.0 (and 6.1). After configuring multipath for iscsi connection are missing the symlink abount alias path in /dev/disk/by-id folder and in the gui are not listed the luns. Example of multipath -ll output mpath2 (36000d3100355fa000000000000000017) dm-9...

Hello everyone, I'm setting up a small proxmox cluster with three hosts and an HP P2000 ISCSI storage. Everything works fine, the only problem is that I cannot create the LVM on top of the ISCSI lun. I get the following error message in the Proxmox GUI: create storage failed: error with cfs...

What's the best solution to get a filesystem accepting qcow disk files, and snapshots when using a storage via iSCSI ? The basic solution is LVM, but it's not possible to have snapshots neither qcow.

Hello, What do you recommend for a ZFS redundant two-node SAN? I Will use ISCSI to connect it to proxmox. My Storage configuration should support from 80 to 160 Tb of storage space. Thanks!

I am trying to use a FreeNAS server for shared storage in a 3-node Proxmox cluster to enable HA and live migration. The iSCSI target is set up on a ZFS pool of 4 identical enterprise-grade SSD's and is reporting "healthy" in FreeNAS. I followed the helpful instructions here...

Hi Everyone, I have a serious problem, we installed a SAN for 3 nodes FUJITSU 2540 and 1 Stocking Harbor, I created 2 LVMs partitions on Stocking (SAN_VM for VMs and SAN_BACKUP for BACKUP), all Disks of VMs are stored on SAN_VM. today, after a power failure, I restarted the elements of our SAN...

Hello all! I have experienced an issue with iscsi target/comstar on OmniOS with Proxmox as initiator (ZFS over ISCSI, zvols). Seems like STMF service looks crashed after heavy IO load. iSCSI tcp port closes also, target goes to offline. Reboot helps. When I trying to restart stmf manually...

Hi, I have a number of proxmox hosts, and some connected to a Dell/EMC SAN. On most of the connected hosts i have added an iSCSI connection to the san and then either used the luns directly or added an LVM volume on top.However i'm trying to set up a new host now, and i can add the iSCSI...

I have a mounted ZFS over iSCSI storage device using the LIO plugin. It is successfully mounted to my nodes I took a loot into the /Storage/ISCSIPlugin.pm to see how the storage is being mounted. It looks like it is using iscsiadm But when I try to see the devices # /usr/bin/iscsiadm --mode...

I was testing my ZFS over ISCSI storage with different settings, compression, encryption, etc on different datasets on my ZFS pool and noticed the disk numbering convention numbers the disks per storage appliance. The first disk you create will be called vm-vmid-disk-0; attaching another disk...

Ive just configured my SAN to run as a PVE node/storage appliance with ZFS over iSCSI as a LIO target. NFS and iSCSI over RDMA is working well with the exception of adding EFI disks to a VM. Copying EFI vars image failed: command '/usr/bin/qemu-img convert -n -f raw -O raw...

Hello, i need to install targetcli-fb in lxc container for iSCSI service. By installing targetcli-fb on host i got all kernel modules in lxc and targetcli is working without errors. My first step is to create a file-based backstore but this ended with an error. Unfortunately targetcli writes...

Hello, I'm new to Proxmox and am still confused on where to store each VM's application data. I've read a lot of threads here but most of them focus on storing the actual VM files while I'm interested in where to store each application's specific data. Example of the data I want to store...

Basically, the title says it all. We rebooted our NAS, but now, the VMs that were stored on there are not able to restart. This is the error we get. iscsiadm: No portals found command '/usr/bin/iscsiadm --mode discovery --type sendtargets --portal 1XX.1XX.9.1XX' failed: exit code 21 iscsiadm...

Hello, I have a 4 nodes cluster, sharing an ISCSI LUN with LVM on top of it. I've created a template that I use to clone VM and add a cloudinit drive. Everything works fine until I stop the VM (which has it's disk and clouinit on the shared LVM), it then complains that it cannot start : Use...
