Hi everyone,
glad to be here, i have some questions about planning a Two-Node High Availability Cluster with proxmox.
The plan is to use the following hardware:
2x Sun Fire X4450 4x Xeon Hex Core 2.40GHz 98GB RAM
CPU: 4x Intel Xeon E7450 - Hex-Core 2,40 GHz - FSB 1066 MHz - 12 MB Cache - VT-x - 64 Bit
RAM: 96 GB RAM (24 x 4GB) PC2-5300F (32 Slots - 8 Unused)
Hard Disk Controller: 8-Kanal-LSI SAS HBA (371-3255-03)
Hard Disk Configuration: 8 x 2,5 SAS / SATA Hot-Plug
Diskdrive: Slimline DVD
Network: 4 Ports, 10/100/1000 Mbps, Auto-Negotiation, 1x Sun Pro/1000 PT Quad-Port NIC (375-3481-01), 2x so QLE2460 Single Channel 4 GB Fibre HBA
Power: 2 x Hot-Swap-Netzteil 1100W
Interfaces: 5x USB 2.0, 4x Gigabit RJ45 Onboard-Controller, 1x RJ-45 SER MGT, 1x 10-MB-NET MGT, 1x HD-15 VGA
Remote Management: On-Board-Embedded-Prozessor LOM-Service - DMTF CLPCLI over SSH, Web-based Browser-Interface GUI, IPMI 2.0,SNMP (v1, 2c, v3), Remote KVM, Remote Storage-over-Ethernet
16x Seagate Constellation 7200.2 1TB, SAS 6Gb/s (ST91000640SS)
8x HHDs per server, 2x HHDs with RAID 1 for proxmox installation + 6x HHDs with RAID 10 as shared storage (DRBD) for VMs
1x USV APC Smart-UPS 3.000 VA SURTD3000RMXLI / APC Network Management Card / AP9630
Are there any known issues or problems using these hardware components to build a Two-Node High Availability Cluster with proxmox?
Is that kind of environment suitable for production use (virtualized machines are: 3x WS2008R2 - DC + Exchange2010 + Lexware, 3x Windows7 - Workstations, 3x Debian servers)?
To avoid major mistakes during planning any hint or suggestion about that setup will be helpful, thanks in advance.
best regards
tom
