Hey all,
I am new to the forum and will jump right in to ask for some advice on the best setup for my purposes. I will try to describe the situation and what I want to achieve in detail.
What do I have:
Minisforum MS-01 (the i5 model)
Qnap TL-D800s
The card that came with the qnap as a controller
8x 20TB HDD
1 1TB M2 ssd that came with the minisforum
2 1 TB M2 ssd bought extra
What do I want to achieve:
The 8 HDD's should be purely for storage purposes and spin down when not being used. They will be unused for most of the time so extra wear on the disks is acceptable.
The SSD's are for proxmox, the vm's and containers etc
The Storage on the SSD's must be accessible from VM's and containers to write to.
What have I tried so far:
I have proxmox set up in a temporary test setup that I will wipe once I know the final state, it is installed on one of the SSD's.
There is a vm running with Truenas and the qnap storage controller is passed through.
The HDD's are configured and working in Truenas.
I have set up a container to test working with the data drives in the vm.
I have exposed the data drive in the container via nfs (mounted inside the container and not on the host)
What is the result:
All seems to be okay until I start actually putting load, I can read and wrote to the mounted nfs export in the container, but under heavy load it completely locks up.
I am looking for a stable situation that meets the above requirements, within that feel free to suggest a different way of achieving it. I was just trying what I thought might work.
thanks,
activ
