Proxmox and sheepdog

[przemeksw]

Hi
I have an external sheepdog cluster running. How can I connect it to the latest proxmox, so that it can put virtual machines on it.
Google does not show anything interesting, and articles on the sheepdog are unavailable on the proxmox wiki.
Will you help?

Sheepdog is not actively maintained and never got into PVE besides some experimental support, I'm afraid, see:

for which proxmox will not support the sheepdog. What is this decision dictated?

Did you read my links?? It's unmaintained, the main developer of it told so in the second link I posted. The last real development activity is well over a year old, and even that's just a minor fix. If you want more details ask upstream why it was discontinued: https://sheepdog.github.io/sheepdog/#mailing-list-and-irc
We recommend using Ceph, much better integrated in PVE than Sheepdog ever was and has some other nice features as well.
