We are planning to run proxmox as our hypervisor, not sure how to setup the storage though as I’m pretty new to this stuff. Thinking about using ZFS with the NVME ssd’s as read/write cache. Any pointers will be appreciated
Trying to maintain 8 development branches or so, each development branch will need to be able to perform game engine builds and game project builds, thus the need for all that storage.
Do you have a separate NAS or some other kind of backup storage? Might be worth it to have redundancy and backups handled by another system so you can tune the dev boxen for pure speed.
In general though, mirrors are usually what you go for when you need all the iops, and I’d also probably avoid putting all 10 of those 4TB drives in the same pool.
with the two 4TB drives… i see OS mirror and iso and lxc storage
(without knowing if you need 20TB or 32TB)
for the ten 4TB, i see 5 mirrors in a zpool.
