raid

Hey guys, I am building my first production Proxmox - not my first virt mind you, but costs are astronomical with 'other' virtualization options. Anyway. I have specific needs and specific setup - regarding the setup, lets leave that. My question is this - from your experience - is this...

I got my hands on a Mac Pro 2012 with two 6 core Xeons. The Mac has a 500GB SSD and three 6TB drives. When I have installed Proxmox previous, I also would install docker and zfs as well. How does setup my data drives to allow both LVM-Thin and docker storage to co-exist or should I just create...

Hallo, ich bin absolut neu in diesem Thema und frage mich wie ich mein RAID am besten löse. Ich habe in einigen Videos gesehen das man bei mit Proxmox selbst ein RAID aus den verschiedenen Platten erstellen kann. Jetzt meine Frage: Ist es sinnvoll das RAID über Proxmox zu machen, oder soll...

Dear friends, I have a question on assembling a Proxmox + CEPH (I am a newbie in Proxmox... but a have experience in use VMWare) cluster with 7 servers. My servers are a bit old, HPE DL360 and DL380 both generation 7 with P410i RAID controller (SAS 6Gb/s) that does not allow passthrough mode, ie...

Hi, I have a Proxmox standalone installation and have high I/O when working in any instance running in raid ssd. proxmox-ve: 6.1-2 (running kernel: 5.0.21-1-pve) pve-manager: 6.1-3 (running version: 6.1-3/37248ce6) pve-kernel-5.3: 6.0-12 pve-kernel-helper: 6.0-12 pve-kernel-5.0: 6.0-11...

Hi everyone, I'm actually trying to build a Proxmox cluster of HP DL380 G5 (kind of old school but effective...) and, following Ceph instructions, I just made a RAID 1 for my OS (Proxmox) partition and let others drives free, in no RAID. The problem is that they are not showing in my proxmox...

Hello Hope you are fine. I am working on a research project about software RAID. I scrutiny great software, Proxmox , as a case study in this research. I just wanted to ask you which method you have used for implementing software RAID. I have acquaintance with Linux kernel md, did you use this...

Hello, A nice Supermicro Server (CSE-216A-R900LPB, X8DTU-F mobo) has come into my possession from my employer. I am attempting to get a simple homelab setup to practice virtualization, devops and security work. It has come with twenty-four 120GB SSDs with an Adeptec RAID controller. I could use...

I have two drives in a mirrored zpool. If I add two more drives, can I stripe the two mirrors (RAID 10) online? If not only, can it be done with minimal downtime?

Dear Proxmox Team, we have 3 Dell Servers running Proxmox 6.0. Unfortunately we encountered an issue with the setup of Ceph OSD's on individual drives. The main problem is that the given Perc H710 mini adapter does not allow "IT-Mode" / JBOD Passthrough of individual drives, and so we're stuck...

Hi, First thing first, I know it is not recommended to use raid 0 disks beyond ceph, however that's what I did on 4 Dell R430 servers with Perc 730 (with 6 15k SAS drives). I have pretty descent performance with it and absolutely no issues for the last 2 years. With full SSD nodes I don't use...

Hi, I have server where I need to put Proxmox. I configurated RAID 1 using DELL SAS 6ir raid controller. When I start installer proxmox doesnt find RAID and exits. Why ? Thanks

I have an hp proliant DL360p Gen8 smart array P420i RAID Controller. Proxmox detects the logicals disks (raid 1 (2x146Go) and raid5 (3x300Go) .But I would like to use ZFS (which is incompatible with the physical Raid). When I delete the logical disks, the hard drives are no longer detected by...

Hello everyone, I have a Chinese server brand INSPUR model NF5170M4. The factory comes with a LSI MegaRAID SAS 9271-8i adapter. I have tried insanely to install several versions of the proxmox, 5.2, 5.4 and 4.4, and I always have the same error. I have created RAID type 6 and 5 and always with...

This is my first time running my own virtualization environment. PVE looks like the best option. I'd like to get some advice on setting it up. I have a Supermicro box (HW RAID 1 available) with the following config 2x WD Red 4TB drives 1x 2TB NVME SSD 1x Xeon E 2136 2X 16GB RAM 2X 1Gbps NICs 5...

Hi all! After couple of years using QNAP Virtualization solutions I'm jumping on self assembled server with Proxmox. My server hardware is: - Ryzen 2700 - 32GB RAM (soon expanded to 64) - Intel 1000/PRO 4 port Server Adapter - 3x1TB HDD Toshiba - 2x250GB SSD Patriot Burst I want to make SSD on...

Hey all, I'm setting up Proxmox at a religious institution where they received 3 HP Proliant servers as donations - they're a bit old but suffice for their needs. Basically these will be running their UniFI SDN some VMs/CTs, OpenVAS, etc.. nothing too crazy. I haven't setup a Ceph cluster...

Hi, I wonder if anyone has experience and can comment maybe. I've just spent some time reviewing a pair of lenovo servers, which have this HW Raid controller. 2 x identical nodes in a small proxmox cluster, proxmox 5.Latest. There is no problem with the controller being recognized and...

Hi, I have a Proxmox server (5.2.1) with the config below : - Xeon E5 2650 V2 - 16Gb Ram ECC - 120 GB SSD (KINGSTON SV300S3) - 2x2To HDD (Hitachi HUS72403 and TOSHIBA DT01ACA3) The proxmox server is intalled on the SSD, the containers too. My two hard-drives are configured in RAID 1 with this...
