So I have been running a proxmox server for a few month now, just playing with it a bit blindly. Just recently bough another drive and reading the storage docs I got some question how does everyone else do things... now I'm planning a backup strategy and want to know what are good practices to manage my VMs/LXC and storage in general.
I currently have:
I normally create VMs with 30G base storage in the SSD and add another virtual hard drive to the VM from the HDDs to create a LVM inside the VMs to store data. Is that good enough? Would I have bad performance creating the VMs in the HDDs?
When creating a snapshot I see this warning below:
WARNING: Sum of all thin volume sizes (438.00 GiB) exceeds the size of thin pool pve/data and the size of whole volume group (<223.07 GiB).
That got me wondering:
If you know any proxmox storage management guide for newbies please share, any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for reading.
