Native shared storage

[cyruspy]

Hello!,

Is there any prevision to use native storage services from a centralized FC storage box?.

I've reviewed the documentation and it seems to me that a big LUN is expected as LVM PV.

I would like to have a LUN per vdisk (similar to Ceph RBD) and offload to the box operations like snapshots/compression/replication.

Are there hooks in PVE to implement something like that?

Hi,
this will only work if your Storage/SAN vendor will provide/support/develop a native Proxmox integration via a Proxmox Storage Plugin .... would ask your vendor

That would require a standardized framework from Proxmox to integrate the management plane of any vendor.

Is there something like that?

at the end it's a Proxmox Perl API the storage vendor has to use ...
