The way to get your workloads to prefer a node is to create HA groups for each node. Set the node priority for each group to be the same for all the non preferred nodes, and increase that value by one or two for the preferred node. Workloads will migrate to the node that is up with the highest priority first, and then prefer nodes of equal priority with the most amount of free memory and lowest CPU usage

Built a cluster with 3x Minisforum EliteMini HM90 with 32GB RAM (max. is 64GB) + 512GB NVMe + 1TB SSD each - plenty of cluster power with (3x9=) 27 Watts idle. The mini PCs also have two NICs so I'm running a separate Cluster Network for running the synchronization of the nodes as a best practice tip from Proxmox says: "Storage communication should never be on the same network as corosync!" Actually didn't want to run out of CPU power even when operating the one or another Windows OS on the cluster. Anyway: Proxmox rocks! Hope to see more content on your channel - which is one of my favorites. 👍🏻

Yes! That's was exactly why I bought recently the HM80 is exactly like HM90 but with low powered amd ryzen 4800U processor 15wats. They are maybe 20/25% slower but hey! It's only 15 Wats chip! The only thing I didn't like was the fact that probably they don't support ecc ram. But still when you have a cluster I do believe you are covered even when there would be RAM corruption. So maybe that's not the worst idea :-)

As others have commented, Ceph needs more memory but it should also have it's own isolated (preferably) network, the faster the better. It will constantly be copying changed blocks on one node to the other two nodes to stay in sync. You should use that second NIC on each node for this.

I run a similar proxmox cluster on intel NUCs with 6w pentium n3700 cpus but I use ZFS replication instead of ceph. I wish I had those pcie slots though, then I would upgrade the networking and try ceph. The other thing you could try with these boards is a Pfsense/OPNsense CARP HA router setup. They're x86 cpus and have 2x nics so they should be good for that. In a different proxmox cluster I run Pfsense VMs in a combination of Pfsense CARP HA and proxmox ZFS replication HA. It works great, haven't had network downtime in forever.

Some quick questions.. 1) Do all the SSD / HDDs used in the Ceph nodes have to be the same size? 2) If I started off with (say) 500Gb drives and wanted to upgrade to (say) 2Tb drives, could I do this one disk at a time and avoid data loss, or would I have to back everything up, upgrade all the disks, and restore? 3) In your example, you had three 1Tb disks. How much storage do you end up with on the cluster? 4) Can you add more Ceph nodes once it's up and running? 5) If you can add more nodes, will it start with fewer than 3 nodes? (I need to spread the cost of disk purchases out!) TIA
@javoronkov Жыл бұрын
1) practically yes; your usable size will be the size of the smallest disk. 2) yes, it’s a piece of cake. 3) configuration shown was R3 (replication across three nodes), so total usable size is 1TB. You can use EC2+1 (erasure coding of 2 data and 1 parity) that will give you 2TB of space while allowing for one disk/node to fail. 4) yes, it’s a piece of cake. 5) yes, but some deficiencies. Proxmox cluster: 2 nodes depend heavily on each other. You won’t be able to start vms/lxcs, change the configuration and so on while you have only one node online (official/supported flow of things). CEPH cluster: chances are you’ll end up with osd-level redundancy, so your operation will fail if any of your disks/nodes go down.

Running Proxmox and a VM just to run Kubernetes in HA seems like an over kill. You are running HA container management on top of HA hypervisor. Why not just install an OS that supports cephfs and install Kubernetes on top. Just need to be sure that your etcd cluster spans all three nodes and each node is schedulable for workloads. One node goes down and Kubernetes can move the workload without having to first move Kubernetes and then the workload. Not as much fun but less hassle in the long run.

I have set up services along with pihole on it, but I don't want to put e.g. pfsense into it and have it work as a router, because if this single device dies, I don't even have access to the internet. Thanks for this video as it shows how to make the server part HA. I wonder if there is an easy way to have a router highly available. My current router worked for years without any trouble, but I am using the pihole as a DNS, because I wanted an intranet domain. Still: if it breaks, I have to manually adjust things to at least have internet back on.

Proxmox seems pretty heavy for something like this. I'd like to see something like this with updated software. Possibly Fedora CoreOS to get auto OS updates with rollback, with k3s and Rancher dashboard, or just go full first-party with Docker Swarm with ___ dashboard (I wish there was a first-party one), replicated masters in case the master node goes down, but also sharing storage for HA. Double drives (NVMe or SATA) on the Zimaboards for redundancy to handle a single drive outage without losing full HA support for services (can drive mirroring be done with clustered storage within the same host in place of RAID?). I was thinking something like this with Cockpit to manage the system hardware and OS and Rancher to handle the apps. It's too bad that Cockpit doesn't have a Kubernetes extension. They used to, but it can't be found anymore. Probably because they're supporting Podman already. There's nothing in Cockpit (AFAIK) that creates or manages clusters unless you go over to the Red Hat corporate side of things and start looking at OpenShift, and even the community version OKD is too much for a Zimaboard. Minishift is also dead.

Fujitsu is more compilcated: 5.5w idle without anything (but network) attached, 7-9w at very little load (added usb wifi, running podman-compose with nextcloud, mariadb and cloudflared which greatly increases wakeups per seconds, still like 2-5% cpu usage) and 37w at full load. But at full load it's roughly five times faster. Zimaboard costs roughly 130eur including shipping and additional costs were minidp-hdmi cable and 250gb sata harddrive. Fujitsu costs roughly 130eur including 128 sata harddrive and 8gb ram. Running nextcloud on zimaboard feels like it uses half of memory a stuggles a bit when resizing jpegs on fly while handling https connection. Fujitsu feels like overkill for this task. It's almost as good as i5-4590 desktop i used from 2015 to late 2021 and it's faster than my 5 years old i7-7500u notebook. Power efficiency is insane.

Is it possible / how to have a folder / diskarea, partition, ... lets call it "shared folder" where different container can read and write data. Later on there is maybe a container with a simple NAS software solution or just a SMB share, that gives me acces to that "shared folder" via LAN so I can backup that data from time to time.

You can only run a single VM on one machine at a time.

I'm not a fan of running a system with a PF of around or below 0.5 as there's a lot of wasted power being burned...

I am about to do that, I am going to use a Vima board as the NAS. What are you using for storage?

ah, nm mind I saw that you are using 1 TB drive, so why not a nas?

I wanted the storage to stay local within the cluster for HA
