Hi all,
we have recently bought a 19" based storage solution which we want to use as NFS storage for our Proxmox cluster.
After adding the published NFS shares to our storage pool in the Proxmox web frontend I shut down the storage
server. As a result of this I was not able to log in at the cluster master frontend. I got an error message that
user and/or password is incorrect.
After powering up the storage server I could login again.
Questions:
1) Is it possible that downtime of a attached NFS (or other NAS) causes the login mechanism of the master to fail ?
2) If yes, will this be fixed in a newer version of Proxmox ? To my understanding a solution like Proxmox must be fault-tolerant enough to deal with such events (unless there are really running machines located at the storage).
3) Is there some workaround for this problem ?
Additional info:
We are currently running proxmox V1.5 in our cluster.
The storage server used is a Thecus 8800 Pro (although this shouldn't make a difference).
Regards,
Holger
