Hi Yannis!

Thanks for the quick answer... Yes, on my PVE Server I have 3 virtual machines 
and I want to recover them in another Server in cause of hardware failure...

So, I just have to mount that LUN partition in another Server right?  Is it 
easy to recover the backup? Can I restore the backups over web interface or 
should it go over shell console?

Well, for now it's just a small lab, my plan is make it bigger! Any other trick 
or advise for me in what regards recovery disaster?

Thanks,
Leonardo.

Subject: [PVE-User] Ansible role for Proxmox (4.x clusters)
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"

Hi guys,

I wrote an Ansible role last year for deploying PVE on multiple hosts and 
preparing them to join a PVE cluster. It's available on Galaxy: htt 
ps://galaxy.ansible.com/lae/proxmox/. The main features currently are IPMI 
watchdog configuration and SSH key generation/configuration (with the 
assumption that root logins are disabled by default, as they should be).

It doesn't perform the cluster creation step (yet) - but all that's needed 
after applying the role are running `pvecm create $clustername` on $firsthost 
and `pvecm add $firsthost` on the remaining hosts.

So far I've used it to deploy 4.3 and 4.4 clusters without issue, and I've also 
used it to upgrade a 4.3 cluster to 4.4 (without automatic reboot).

I'm open to contributions and/or suggestions, so feel free!

Hi All!

Can someone please advise what is the best procedure in case of recovery 
disaster?

My scenario is:
I have a PVE Server running a few machines, I also have a NAS with some 
disks... I wanna point to that NAS the backup of these machines (in a way I can 
recover them in another server in case of hardware failure).

I see on PVE the Backup service, I am not sure if I have to recover a whole VM 
to another server that is the proper service, it looks too simple (mostly 
snapshots).
My plan is have Proxmox as a main server for VMs so, I have to think about "if 
my hardware fails", what can I do to move the machines to another server...

Much appreciated,
Leonardo D.

Your question is quite generic because it depends how you have configured your 
PVE, what will be the storage backends etc.
I will assume that you have one PVE server with VMs stored in a local storage 
like LVM or ZFS. You have a NAS as well where you store the backups of these 
VMs (full backups).NAS is configured on PVE as a  NFS target.
So if your PVE server dies, the only thing needed is to mount NAS as NFS target 
on the new PVE server and just retore the backups there. That could take some 
time depending on the size of VMs.

As asked by the hosting company I shut down and test in rescue mode. I
also tested with proxmox running but with all VMs shut down (my tests
were done with all VMs running).

There is an increase in speed reads but I find that FSYNCs are still low
and reads differ too much (from 100 MB/s to 140 MB/s):

/dev/sda:

Timing buffered disk reads: 434 MB in 3.00 seconds = 144.60 MB/sec
root@myserver:~# hdparm -tT /dev/sdb

/dev/sdb:
Timing cached reads: 16492 MB in 2.00 seconds = 8253.77 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 456 MB in 3.01 seconds = 151.44 MB/sec

Are these numbers normal for a SATA 7.200 RPM Software RAID with ext4?

What numbers can I expect with SSD?

Thanks!

Miguel
