raid

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...

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...

Hey, I'm planning to setup a server running proxmox, but before I do, I'd like some advice for how I should arrange my disks. Today I'm running a Proliant Gen8 Microserver with 4x2TB, 1x128GB SSD drives using FreeNAS. But since I've been having trouble with FreeNAS and FreeBSD I'm looking two...

Hi guys, We are running Intel servers with server boards (Intel S2600WTTR) that have a RAID plugin card (Intel RMS3HC080). Currently running in HW RAID 10. On top of that we are currently running ZFS in RAID0 ('one disk'). However, I suspect some locking issues and I want to reinstall one of...

Hi all, Maybe Stratis could be a future storage solution for Proxmox. The solution combines the best parts from ZFS and BTRFS but doing it using existing kernel tools. DM and XFS. Article series: 1) overview: https://opensource.com/article/18/4/stratis-easy-use-local-storage-management-linux...

Hi there, I'm using Proxmox 5.1 with a LSI 4-port Raid Controller and of course I can check via cli with megacli how my RAID is doing. However, I need a solution that notifies me right away when a drive fails or SMART values turn bad. Do you have an idea how this is implemented the best way...

Keep at my hands nice modern server with 4 SSDs on board, I still can't find the better way to utilize it. I can use built-in h/w RAID controller (LSI card, with cache and BBU, not sure for model) and build, say, RAID10 out of these disks. Or I can export these disks as 4 independent volumes...
