I'm building my first production Proxmox server that I'll be using mostly for OpenVZ guests but will also have a few KVM guests also. Due to my limited budget I can not do hardware raid and wound up with a 256GB Samsung 830 SSD and 750GB WD Scorpio Black HDD. My goal is to end up with a cold spare backup disk that is synchronized once or twice a day and can be manually booted in case of disk failure.
I'm initially thinking of doing something similar to the following options but looking for advise on how to do this.
Option A:
Install all of Promox on SSD
Make a copy of root/swap on HDD and use rsync to keep current at some interval.
Make a copy of data on HDD and use Proxmox to backup guests to HDD
Option B:
Install Proxmox root/swap on HDD, but data on SSD
Make a copy of root/swap on SSD and use rsync to keep current at some interval.
Make a copy of data on HDD and use Proxmox to backup guests to HDD
