Hi All,
Firstly, thanks to these forums and the Proxmox team, the software is awesome and these forums have helped immensely with my setup.
I have 2 Dell PE C1100 servers running Proxmox 3.0 connected to a Dell MD3200i SAN.
I have successfully (after a lot of help from these forums!!) set up iSCSI connection to my SAN on the LUN and have set up a Server 2012 instance on ProxNode1, with the image stored on the SAN, however this is in the RAW Format (seemed to default to this) and I want to convert to qcow2 for snapshotting etc..
I know I can run
but I just can't seem to see where inside the Linux OS this place actually resides.
I decided to run mount:
If i do parted -l i get:
There seems to be a lot of disks here, however I set up multi-path and this is used as my targets for SAN stored OpenVZ containers (along with backups/iso's). There are two LUNs set up for each node to use (at 500GB) and these are mounted on startup in /etc/rc.local (as i mounted these in fstab but the server would not boot because it couldn't see them yet).
Anyway, briefly, where would my 3TB iSCSI Drive be mounted so I can convert my images?
Also, just on a side note, I cloned one of my VM's (50GB), which the image resides on my 3TB LUN on the SAN, but cloning this seems to take hours, which doesn't seem quite right to me.
Here's my /etc/network/interfaces conf:
I have put each "iSCSI traffic NIC" into the correct VLAN in access mode, leaving my "Prox" NICs for normal traffic in Trunk, with various VLANs tagged. Also have forced 1000Mb negotiation on my switch.. the "Prox" NICs are on Auto-Negotiate.
Sorry this may be a bit long winded.. if I have missed out any info anyone needs please let me know!
Thanks in advance!
