Hi, a better solution would be to work with lvm snapshots and deltas. You just have to move the small delta. And therefore you can do this every hour or even more aften.. i dont know i fit is also possible with vzdump but it is also capable of making deltas. But ist not the same like applieng the delta direct tot he storage target like on lvm...
Like this it sould be possible to archieve something like vmware has allready. Some tool like this would be actually cool in proxmox for some guis with smaller environments. For bigger ones and maybe for you using ceph instead of your san would be better.... -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: pve-devel [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Michael Rasmussen Gesendet: Mittwoch, 15.

I mean your approach will surely cause the loss of data since all changes between the time of creation of the fall-back disk an the incident will be lost! If you need uptime like 99.999% you should drop you single point of failure SAN an move on to clustered storage since clustered storage is the only viable solution to your high demand on uptime. -- Hilsen/Regards Michael Rasmussen Get my public GnuPG keys: michael <at> rasmussen <dot> cc http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xD3C9A00E mir <at> datanom <dot> net http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xE501F51C mir <at> miras <dot> org http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xE3E80917 -------------------------------------------------------------- /usr/games/fortune -es says: This fortune intentionally says nothing. _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list [email protected] http://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
