Dear,

I'm currently testing the replication feature of proxmox 5 (after upgrading from proxmox 4.4).
I have a three nodes cluster with ceph and a zfs pool for replication.
Live migration works fine for ceph vm (online), ceph ct (restart) and replicated ct (restart) but not with replicated vm (online). Indeed, with vm (online), I have this error :
Code:
...
2017-07-31 15:02:31 found local disk 'zfs:vm-104-disk-1' (in current VM config)
2017-07-31 15:02:31 can't migrate local disk 'zfs:vm-104-disk-1': can't live migrate attached local disks without with-local-disks option...
TASK ERROR: migration aborted

Just to be sure, could you please confirm that live migration (online) currently doesn't work with proxmox 5 and the replication feature ?

Thank you in advance,
Kind regards,
Rudy
 
Hi,

it will not work when the replication target and the migration target are the same node.
But this feature will come later.
 
Hello,

Thank you very much for your confirmation about this and great news that this feature will come later because with my shared storage ceph, I was a little disappointed by writing performance (but it is normal since I currently don't have ssd)

Best regards,
Rudy

Is there a bug tracker or status page for this feature? I'd like to get more insight what the technical difficulties are.
