raid

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...

I'm trying to get proxmox installed on a Dell c6100 with SAS and SSD drives. The drives are all detected in BIOS but it seems that there is no driver support for this particular card and so no drives show up to the installer. Debian installer (stretch) also does not detect them even when...

Hi there. I'm doing some maintenance on a desktop based 'server' used as SQL database host for ca 5 LAN users. It was running bios-software RAID1 on 2x Samsung EVO 250GB SATA SSD's. I know that those are NOT server grade but what can you do :/ 3rd drive is a regular 3,5" 1TB SATA for backups...

Hello there, I want to install Proxmox on three x3650s. I've tried to install the VE 5.3, but it has Problems to mount the drives (6x300 GB 10k rpm SAS). I know that Proxmox want to configure the RAID on its own, so you have to turn off the RAID-Controller on "normal PCs". But in this case I...

Hello all, does PVE support the new Intel NVME RAID (VROC) Hardware? Wortmann has new servers with this feature. Spec: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000024550/memory-and-storage.html

I have an Areca raid controller that I was going to pass to the VM, but I'm having issues with it the VM not being able to reboot because it isn't "releasing" the card. I am going to look into blacklisting it on the host to see if that makes a difference, but I thought, maybe I'd just pass the...

Hello all, for some time now I have been on a journey looking for a way of virtualising the workloads I toy around with at home. Ultimately I decided to shift from the free version of VMWare to proxmox because of the lack of features in VMWare for an unlicenced system and ended up on Proxmox...
