Multi-node storage

[Kenneth_H]

Hi
Currently I run a single node PBS host for backups of a 5-node PVE-cluster.
My servers are rented from a datacenter provider and the server used for backups is a fixed configuration as going dynamic will increase the costs to an unreasonable amount.
Therefore I am currently limited to 8 x 14TB SAS HDD configurations. This then runs a RAID-Z2. But as I expand my PVE cluster, the backup amount also increases.
So now the question is if there is an official/recommended way to run a multi-node PBS setup on something like CephFS or GlusterFS?

Hi,
PBS is stand-alone, there is no possibility to cluster multiple instances and it is best used with local storage (then traffic doesn't need to go over the network twice). If one PBS instance is not enough for you, and you want to synchronize backups between instances, there is the possibility to setup remotes and sync jobs.
