Hello everybody,
The subject says almost all
.
We may virtualize a physical machine with a 2Tb hard disk. It's possible to have on a SAN a part of the data but a minumum of 1Tb should be directly on the machine. For some reasons, OpenVz is not an option.
Does is it reasonable to have a 1Tb qcow2 disk size, or to have, as an example, 5 * 200Gb qcow2 disks and use LVM to create a volume of 1Tb on the virtual machine.
The backup will not be done with Proxmox backup system but with an internal agent into the virtual machine.
Of course, to stay on a physical machine, if virtualization is not possible, is an option. We just need a new hardware.
Thank for your help.
Michel
