But why do I need a #proxmox test cluster?
Well, I have #glusterfs since a few month installed, and its quite easy and straight forward (and reliable so far).
Unfortunately Proxmox will not support it anymore and therefore I need an alternative solution.
#DRBD is my candidate to go, #ceph is far to much for my #homelab..

Angenommen ich habe einen Host miteinem halben Dutzend #Docker Containern. Ich hätte den Host (also eigentlich die Container) gerne hochverfügbar.
Welche einfachen Lösungen bieten sich an?
Kubernetes wäre scheinbar overkill.
#Rancher? #K3s? #Portainer? Oder klassisch mit #Linux-HA und #DRBD? Oder ganz anders?

@ij ach Kuck an. Lange nicht mehr „Open-e“ gehört. Hatte das in der Uni (2011?) im Einsatz, für #proxmox. Hatten auch so manches Problem damit, vor allem wenn sich die Conf von dem internen #DRBD zerschossen hat. Aber es lief recht lange, bis mein Nachfolger es sinnigerweise durch #ceph ersetzt hat.

Le seul point qui me chiffonne c’est la compilation du module noyau #DRBD9 même si un tout est fait pour gérer la compatibilité avec le noyau

Mais j’ai toujours du mal avec l’installation d’une chaîne de compilation complète sur mes serveurs.

Bon, c’est gérable de façon centralisée, paquet ou distribuer le binaire par #saltstack, #ansible ou autre

How to make DRBD compatible to the Linux kernel

The Linux kernel’s interface towards device drivers is not set in stone. It evolves with the evolvement of Linux. Sometimes driven by hardware improvements, sometimes driven by general evolution of the code base. In tree drivers this is not a big issue since they get changed as the interfaces are modified, therefore are called “tree […]

J’ai testé sur une petite infrastructure de test l’outil de stockage distribué #linstor basé sur #DRBD et qui s’intègre bien avec plusieurs systèmes de virtualisation

Comparing Open Source Cloud & Virtualization Platforms

More and more, businesses and companies are seeking to repatriate services and infrastructure from the cloud to on-premise or hybrid solutions. This might be for a variety of reasons. Whether repatriating is for cost savings, performance, security, control, or other reasons, it is happening. Increasingly, companies are turning to open source solutions when repatriating services […]

Und jetzt stellt sich die Frage, was machen. #glusterfs , oder #drbd
Geht mir um Performance und Sicherheit. Drei Server in unterschiedlichen Brandabschnitten hätte ich ja. Hmm....

I’m also curious if anyone has looked at using #DRBD with #Umbrel in general (not just for #lightning).

Anyone considered using #DRBD as the foundation of a highly available #lightning node? To me, it seems like a fairly straightforward way to mitigate a node being a single point of failure.

@ij with #xcp-ng/#xenserver I used ha-lizard (uses #drbd) for that. idk if there is something similar for proxmox. There the quorum is just a pingable host.
