    Odd problem with auto-migrated VMs to wrong hosts, plus how best to disable HA for now?

    We have a Proxmox cluster comprising two identical large machines, with 120 cores and 370+ gig of memory, and with each machine having two ZFS disk pools, Tank1 of 50TB HDD, and Tank2 of 2TB of SSD, and a third less powerful machine with just one ZFS pool, a mirrored paid of 10TB disks...

    Proxmox VM DR Scenario

    Hello everyone, I have two different Proxmox VE clusters in my data center located in two different geographies. I want to replicate for DR of VMs running on Proxmox. Currently, I can provide this with file system replication on Storage, but it is not very useful. Do anyone protect against DR...

    questions about replication and zfs

    Hello, I was hoping to get some clarification about zfs and replication. my VM 104 is running on Proxmox2 in my cluster. I set up a replication task to replicate it to proxmox1 in my cluster. Is the VM on proxmox2 using the snapshot or is it safe to delete the snapshots? (this goes for all...

    Issue upgrading from 6 to 7

    Hello, in a two nodes cluster Master/Slave i have upgraded the Slave (empty) from proxmox 6 to 7. After this, replication stop working, so i can't migrate my VM from the Master (v6) to the Slave (v7) to perform the upgrade on the Master too. Any ideas ? Thanks!

    Hello Maybe someone can help this too Problem was that Replication-Time on Windows RDS Hosts with installed Office 2019 took long time. About 5 to 90 minutes each job. After some investigation i noticed, that the Replication-Log hangs after „freeze guest filesystem“. Same time on vm, the...

    One way only replication.

    Hi, I have a 2 node PVE (with a third corosync quorum node), with replication configured. I'd like to have one way replication only, so that when node A is active, it does replicate on node B, but when node B became active, it does not replicate VMs back to node A. That's because replication...

    Hey all, I deployed two servers in a cluster previously and how finished deploying 3rd for HA and having some issues with getting replication working on all three. it seems to be ssh key and hosts related, then dug deeper and likely to do with my host names being wrong. Currently 3 servers are...

    Could you use proxmox with ceph for geo-failover ?

    Im trying to find a way to use proxmox with ceph as a multi site failover cloud setup of some sorts :). So i have 2 proxmox clusters with ceph, in different locations. They see each-other via site-to-site vpn, and have configured mirroring (journaling) with rbd on a pool (on all its images)...

    ZFS replication sometimes fails

    We're currently testing ZFS replication in order to use it on our production servers. I made a test cluster of 3 nested Proxmox VMs: at1, at2 and at3. Each node has a single 16GB drive with a ZFS pool. I created a VM and a container (referred to as "VMs" from now on) on at1, enabled...

    [SOLVED] Is is possible to specify the NIC used for storage replication?

    I have a 3 node cluster running PVE 7.1-10. I am successfully replicating a pfsense VM between two nodes in my cluster, but it's going over my LAN NIC instead of my dedicated cluster network. Is there a way I can specify the NIC for replication? Even better, can I specify a primary and...

    [SOLVED] Replication in cluster - different ZFS storage on nodes - not available on node

    I have extended a test cluster with a new machine (called: pmx1885) which has its ZFS pool setup done after the install with the web-gui not with the installer (during installation time). This differs from my other cluster nodes in this case. The other cluster nodes (pmx2b,pmx1b,pmx2a,pmx1a)...

    HA - lan disconnect

    I understand that as home user of a 3 node proxmox setup I am somewhat different than the pro users. but I like to play and to understand the features Proxmox is giving me. I had HA configured with replication of 2 machines and saw how proxmox was handling the priorities, so far all ok for this...

    Is it possible: PVE + shared storage + HA + replication to remote site?

    All of my previous experience of PVE setups related to stand-alone hosts, and PVE is perfect for that. Now we want to connect shared SAN storage to several PVE hosts to have HA available. SAN (we rent it) seems to be FC connected. At the same time we want to have the same VMs copied...

    SLOG and L2ARC to speed up ZFS on a spinning drive

    Hi, I'm running a PVE cluster at home, mostly for fun and some local services. I deployed it on top of a couple of dell optiplex (for the low power consumption), which have 1 NVME slot and 1 SATA slot. Initially, I put one 1TB NVME SSD inside both of the optiplex, partitionned with ZFS, and 16...
