Proxmox

Setup #

  1. perform single Proxmox installations
  2. Create cluster on one of the hosts
    • Use separate quorum network to reduce interference between data loads and quorum
  3. Join nodes:

:exclamation: Although it is stated all over the documentation to use IP addresses for joining the cluster, you must reference a cluster node by it’s hostname! The -link0 and -link1 IPs must be the IPs of the node that is joining the cluster.

ZFS Replication #

  • ZFS Pool must be named the same on all nodes you want to replicate to
    • After cluster creation, the ZFS Pool must be created manually through console an all of the nodes
  • Add ZFS Pool to cluster storage manager, e.g. through the GUI
  • VMs that shall be replicated you must create each a replication job. To each host you want to replicate a VM you need to create a distinct replication job
