I've got most of the way through a proxmox install and setup now. With 2 switches, which are isolated from main networks - a data and an OOB switch. They have no uplinks only linkage between themselves. A server is temporarily plumbed in to access the switches and the 3x proxmox servers im setting up.
Is the Proxmox offline POM method the only way to get Ceph onto these hosts. I need to read the docs again but didnt find it very clear on first glance. It sounded like I'd need a debian VM (internet connected) then pull down packages, then create an ISO. Could I mount this ISO as virtual media in IDRAC/BMC? Rather than USB stick.
Is there another method to install ceph oflfline?
...or should I wait until I have outbound access / gateway and just do the Ceph as an online install.
Be interested to hear experiences of POM.
