Hi,
i have two proxmox server and i want keep sync my VM.
But there are on a datacenter without multicast support (no cluster).
i want one server for production, and one for backup.
my goal is keep sync the VM (more or less half hour before), so that the server production goes down for hardware failure i move ip of VM ond second server and start VM.
VM has a big disk (600 GB)
With vzdump, the time is 8 or 9 hours... (far from half an hour)
could this method help me?
vzdump all VM on the second server
restore VM on second server, but stopped
rsync (sparse) only image disk (qcow2) with second server
rsync sparse reduce time of transfer?
in case of failure first server, i can start VM on second server and move ip...
thank you in advance
