raid

Hello everyone, I’m about to rent a dedicated server to host Proxmox VE and deploy several critical company applications. Since performance is key, I want to make sure I choose the best possible storage setup. I have two possible configurations in mind, assuming NVMe SSDs are significantly...

Hi All, I am very new to Proxmox but I have a question. I could not really find recommendations on the internet. As Proxmox self can really benifit from Ceph storage due to all its advantages I could not see this for the backup server. The backup server is a standalone host (in our case) and...

Hi all disclaimer: I work for Fujitsu, this is a semi-official posting but I hope it is not considered as advertising. ;) I found a couple of discussions in this forum around recommended hardware and components for Primergy servers, so maybe this will be helpful for some of you. Of course we...

I first bought a 4TB drive long ago that has been serving me well for Plex, but I want to expand my little server for more, specifically for 4k movies and replacing my cloud storage. I just bought myself 5 more 4TB drives, and I'm thinking of doing some sort of RAID array to have a 4 drive data...

I’ve read many threads but haven’t quite figured it out… I know one should not use RAID with Ceph. Do drives connected as JBOD/single drives on a RAID controller (3108) still fall into that warning category? We’re hoping to reuse some older hardware.

Hello to all I am a new user of Proxmox. I want to install proxmox 8.3 to a HP ProLiant DL160 G6. The server have 4 disks of 2Tb each. I try many time creating RAID 0 or RAID 10 to prceed with the installation but I always get errors on boot like the pictures below. I also try to install...

Hallo, ich habe bisher eine USB SSD an meiner Fritzbox und nutze das als "NAS"-Ersatz. -Folgendes passiert darauf: -Backups aus IO-Broker -Backups der Handyfotos -Netzlaufwerk für Homeoffice Ich habe seit ca. 6 Monaten einen Lenovo M710q mit Proxmox im Einsatz, auf dem einige Container...

I am building a cluster with 2 PVE hosts and a quorum host. Each PVE host is running local storage with hardware raid. I would like have it set up in such a way that in the event of a node failure, all VMs running on one host can be restarted on another. Ideally with clustering, but replication...

On a Hardware RAID configured system, we are having a hard time creating LVM2 groups on the RAID controlled drives. Whenever the hardware undergoes a physical power cycle, any LVM2 groups created on these drives are lost and cannot be recovered. Commands like `pvscan`, `lvscan`, or `lgscan`...

Hallo liebe Proxmoxer, ich bin derzeit bei der Konfiguration meines ersten eigenen Homeservers. Leider bin ich von der Informationsflut und den teils widersprüchlichen Aussagen, welche man in den Weiten des Internets bezüglich der Best Practices bei der Speicherkonfiguration findet, etwas...

I'm planning to build a new proxmox server from scratch. Since I'm new to the proxmox world I thought to ask some help to make rhe right decisions Requirements: - fast SSD's for multiple VM's/containers - RAID setup with HDD's for bulk data I have no problem with the basic VM's and...

Hi, I am wondering whether this is a correct usage of my hardware which runs PVE. I have a Dell PowerEdge R630, 2x HDDs, and 2 SSDs. From what I understand, ZFS is not recommended to run on hardware RAID. The controller (PERC H730 Mini) is currently set to HBA mode and I configured the Proxmox...

Hallo! Ich möchte ein PVE Cluster mit 2 Nodes und einem Qdevice konfigurieren. Im Cluster sollen vorerst 4 VMs laufen: Auf beiden Nodes sollen jeweils 2 VMs mit insgesamt rund 3 TB Daten aktiv laufen. Die Replizierung soll alle 5 Minuten laufen. Frage 1: Ist es Sinnvoll, dass auf beiden...

Hello, I'm new to Proxmox. So, if any term is wrong help me out. I have a HPE Proliant DL380 G6 with 7 disks at my lab. I have installed Proxmox on two of the disks with RAID 10. I have left the other ones out of the RAID as I want to test Ceph for my environment. The other five disks are not...

Hallo Ohr Lieben, Bevor ich mir einen neuen Proxmox Server zusammenbaue, hätte ich gerne eine Bewertung von Euch. Welche Anforderungen habe ich. Betrieb von Netzwerkdiensten (LDAP, ISC-DHCP-Server, CUPS, PowerDNS, Fail2Ban) Betrieb einer privaten Cloud (Nextcloud) Betrieb von Mailserver...

Hello All I managed to get hold of a HP Gen8 server so I recently started using proxmox for the first time. It's great! I have two hardware raid's set up. The first is a mirror raid to host the OS, the second is a larger Raid5 to act as the data storage. I wanted to experiment with the setup...

We are migrating a working server from LVM to ZFS (pve 8.2). The system currently has 3 NVMe 1Tb disk, and we have added a new 2Tb one. As we haven't found a clear/easy way to migrate the running system, and on the other hand, we are stuck with an issue with kernel updates too, we thought...

Moin, ich habe eine Frage zu Raidsystemen bzgl. der Performance und Handhabung: 1. Wie ist das heutzutage mit Raidkontrollern, ich kann mich noch an Adapter vor ca. 15 Jahre erinnern, wenn dort der Strom weg war und der Akku defekt, dann waren auch die Raid Konfigurationen hinüber, somit war...

Hello. Unfortunately I am not able to find a way (if there generally is any), how to share a local disk behind HW Raid (Megaraid) controller on SuperMicro server. I would appreciate any pointers.

I want to using two U.2 pcie Nvme SSD as the fast disk of tens of VMs ( disk Image ) in one PVE host. In order to minimize the risk of “data loss due to disk corruption”, I would like to use raid 1. Then, what is the best filesystem of raid1? ZFS with raid1. or F2FS on MDRAID with raid1. I...
