Proxmox Lab Setup - need advise
Some old R730 are hanging around in our office and I would like to make a proxmox ceph cluster lab built under production conditions.
I have following at disposal:
4x R730 8 core Xeon 96GB DDR4 each with 8 SFF slots for disks HBA330 sas controller
6x 480GB SAS SSD
27x 1.92TB SAS SSD
1x R530 32GB Ram as Proxmox Backup server
4x 10TB SAS Disks 3.5”
8x Mellanox Connectx 4 LX 25gbe nics
8x BCM57404 nics
1x SN2010 Mellanox 25gbe switch
What should i built?
My current idea is a 4 node cluster with the 480 disks as OS and 6x 1.92TB disks as storage with the Proxmox backup as additional whitness to maintain quorum majority.
How do I setup the disks? Talk to me as would be a golden retriever and tell me what you would do.
