LVM on ISCSI

[Gandolf]

Is there a step by step instructions on how to setup LVM on ISCSI to be shared between 2 or move proxmox servers for live migrations and backups?
Or can someone point me to the right documentation for this?

Hi,
If you have the storage prepared for Proxmox, check out: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage_Model#LVM_Groups_with_Network_Backing
Once Proxmox can see and mount the ISCSI target, use Proxmox GUI to create LVM groups. I have one LVM group for each LUN ISCSI presents me.

Also, when using ISCSI it is preferable to be using Multipath: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/ISCSI_Multipath

Hope that helps,

thanks, I missed the LVM option under add storage.
Once I found it, it works like a charm.
