Hi Angel,
Were you transferring HVM or PVM servers to KVM?

Hi,
Here we user as third|quorum machine, a VMWare machine. It worked perfectly as far as it does not host any VM itself.
To migrate linux machines, we created a new VM on proxmox, booted it up with a sysresCD and then netcat the whole system from the xen VM to the new PVE machine.
Hope it helps,

Hi, I'd considered that, but I'm having trouble finding a system that supports VT-d/VT-x.Any hiccups converting Xen to KVM? I imagine the Windows boxes will move easily enough, just using clonezilla or similar. The rest of my servers are Ubuntu based, and PVM's so I'll need to add a kernel, so I'm looking at http://www.blog.turmair.de/2010/12/xen-to-kvm-or-physical-vmware-migration/ Any performance issues?

But we didn't went down the 2-Node cluster road, what we did instead was, that we used an old server machine as a third node, just for the sake of quorum and not having to deal with all the problems, that may occur on a 2-Node cluster. No guests on that machine and as soon as the 3rd production machine was free, we added it to the cluster and removed the old one. I guess performance is not an issue for that 3rd machine, as long as it has no guests. Hope that helps a little, best regards, Kurt Gerald Brandt schrieb:Hi, We've pretty much made the decision to move from Citrix XenServer to KVM (Proxmox) for our Virtual solution. Unfortunately, I don't have all the computers available to me at the start, since migration will use the existing XenServer computers. To start, I'll have two servers, using a single iSCSI, in an HA cluster. Once they are running and some of the virtual machines are migrated, I can add a third server. Finally, I can add the fourth server. Is there anything I need to look out for when creating the 2 server HA cluster and then converting it to a 3 and 4 node cluster? Has anyone done this, and created a HOWTO I can follow? Thanks, Gerald ps: Been using Citrix XenServer since Jan 2009. We've had enough issues with VM disk corruption to haunt me for year (using LVMoveriSCSI). It's a bloody house of cards. _______________________________________________ pve-user mailing list [email protected] http://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-user_______________________________________________ pve-user mailing list [email protected] http://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-user
