    [SOLVED] ZFS replica ~2x larger than original

    On my setup, a VM that takes 9.86T of ZFS pool on active host, grows to 19.6T when replicated to one of the other hosts. On yet another host, it takes 9.86T as expected. Every one of them has ZFS "copies=1" enabled. Data is already compressed (it's a nested zpool inside a zvol). The only thing...

    Replication and Snapshots.

    Hello to all. I have used Proxmox since 3.4. the advances in the platform are definitely exciting to see! We are using zrep to sync zfs volumes to a non cluster machine at this time. Thanks to Brown @ bolthole for his code. It works well. However I have a hankering to use the cluster features to...

    Data replication : which Nics to choose

    Hi there, Consider a 3 node setup with each node having 2x 10GB & 6x 1GB Nic. Is it more interesting to speedup replication between the nodes using 10GB interconnects and have the VM's communicate on 1GB (scenario 1) or is it more interesting to speed up VM <—> desktop access (scenario 2) My...

    Avoid locking in a 2 node cluster environment when 1 node is down.

    We have a solution with 2 nodes in a cluster. We won't use HA, we only want to use the replication feature, just to copy VM's to each other to make our solution redundant in a way. We used this also in our old Hyper-V environment, but in Hyper-V we didn't need to setup a cluster. I was just...

    Does Replication + Mirroring makes sense?

    Hi all! Thanks for this amazing project. I have been "studying" Proxmox for one or two months and I quite like it. I have been wondering about storage replication and disk mirroring for a setup. Does it make sense to have mirrored disks AND do storage replication on top of it. For...
