Hi
I have read this article https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Cluster_Manager but still have a few questions about bigger Environments.
We would like to install several Clusters in the same Network Segment.
- How to prevent MAC Address duplications? Is there a option to set more then the MAC Address Prefix? For Example Prefix + 1 next Byte? Or will Proxmox VE scan the Network before assign a new MAC to a VM?
- Is it possible to set the next VMID always to next Number, not next free Number (if VMID WAS used and VM is deleted in the meantime)?
- What are the max Clusters in one Network Segment? If there is a limit.
- How long are the NFS Timeouts for Storage Connections? We have a HyperMetro Storage with floating IP if a Storage fails. Witch will float the IP at max 10s to the other Storage (same Data). Will Proxmox VE kill the VMs and reboot or freeze the VMs reconnect the Storage and unfreeze the VMs afterwards?
- In the article it is not allowed to connect the same NFS Share to 2 Clusters for running VMs, is it supported to connect a NFS Share to 2 Clusters if I'm Move the Storage of a VM to this NFS Share and Move it again from this NFS Share on the second Cluster to the Storage where the VM have to run afterwards. So I mean only to move offline VMs from one Cluster to another?
- Are Stretched Clusters supported (of corse with Latency < 1ms between the Sites)?
Is there any other Points that I'm missing for bigger enviroments?
Thank you in advance.
