If your storage supports NFS (which is a big if see alexskysilk question) you can of course use it. The benefit would be that then you can use snapshots and thin provisioning and it will (mostly) feel like vmfs.
These benefits come with some...
LVM + ISCSI means you must do think provisioning. LVM is a volume manager not a file system, LVM itself doesn't have a method for multiple hosts to coordinate read / write locking and cache coherency resulting in data corruption. The way to get...
Hey thanks for the reply. So i can do without snapshots thats fine. But are you saying that i can't do LVM in a cluster with shared iscsi disk on my san? Its probably time I just put a ticket in with support..
Hello Proxmox team.
I have reviewed the forum sections and did not find any spot that is applicable for me to post my comments so I decided to post in this section. Sorry.
This is not in any way meant to be negative to Proxmox. All I care about...
So LVM is not a cluster aware volume manager and the way they get around that is only one host will have write capability per LVM thick volume shared over iSCSI. You end up giving up thin provisioning and snapshots, if you give a VM 250GB then...
I did an in-place upgrade from PVE8 to PVE9 but after the update the kernel and zfs are still showing old versions even though they both seem to have updated:
# pveversion
pve-manager/9.1.4/5ac30304265fbd8e (running kernel: 6.8.12-18-pve)

Usually you would use LVM/thick on a ISCSI or fibre-attached SAN: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage:_LVM
Before PVE9 you couldn't use snapshots on it though. Beginning with PVE9 a new feature was introduced which allows...
For future explorers.
The issue was with the Unifi Dream Machine pro that hosts the VPN connection. I opened a ticket with ubiquiti ask about how to debug this, and they asked to install test firmware which resolved an issue with large files...

I have two NICs that I wanted to use in a bond and support two VLANs while still being able to manage the device using the same bond. I realize that ideally I should have a separate physical interface to manage the device but for now this is what...

Generally yes I am trying to maintain the same configuration. If I go iscsi shared storage in proxmox am i loosing snapshots? If that is the case then how do a backup all my VM's with Veeam? Which is how I do it now on my vmware cluster.
I find that it varies. I think discord is fine for simple tech support. If someone asks "how do I change my DNS server", and you just reply "edit /etc/resolv.conf" - that's a lot faster than making a whole forum post. Lots of community use...
