mdadm

Hello all I'm struggling with choosing the best configuration for my setup. I'm using `pve-manager/5.3-5/97ae681d (running kernel: 4.15.17-1-pve)` I have a OpenMediaVault in a virtual machine and I want to have my 2x3TB disks in a raid1/mirror and have OMV use the whole for a CIFS share. I...

Hi there! Could you consider implementing support for mdadm for the future ? A lot of SMBs and SOHOs use it as ZFS ram requirements are very costly for them. Thanks!

I've been using Linux on various PCs as a home server over the years, and now when it's time to retire the old PC and replace it with a somewhat newer, I decided to use proxmox. The old Linux PC had two physical disks in a RAID 1 configuration (mdadm) that I've put in the new server running...

Hello, Proxmox 4.4 / prox instal on 2x32go SSD in raid 1 + 3x 4to in raid 5 After a bad crash I would like to re-construct my server data : I have a raid 5 made with mdmda I have enabled mdmda found in the lvm.conf. After I built my raid 5 (3x 4to) I could see it / make my pv / my vg and all...

I haven't yet tried a 5.0 installation, but I was wondering if the PVE installer allows creation of Linux software RAID and then installation of PVE on that RAID? On 4.x, I had to do a manual install of generic Debian first, then (hard to remember, it has been a few years ago) do something else...

Hi, We're preparing a migration scenario where we'd like upgrade our Proxmox 3.4 cluster to 4.x and convert our exisitng storage to SSD. Would you consider it smart enough to put DRBD9 based volume over mdadm RAID-10 over a set of SSD storage? AFAIK, SSDs themselves should be able to provide...

I added two SSD in my server to have speedy partition to store VM images. I've create mirror over that two SSD with mdadm, then create LVM over that mirror (so I can afford to do snapshot backup of VM). Then I've mkfs.ext4-ted over that LVM. Now I wonder: what if I set or not set 'discard'...
