I am curious on how your Ceph configuration has came along?

Proxmox 8 Cluster with Ceph Storage configuration (youtube.com)

..and this could be a fantastic follow up on that. 

For instance:

When setup a proxmox host/s with one network card, this card shares VM traffic and CEPH traffic. If the host has two or more (add-in) network cards, it would be useful to use one for VM traffic, other for CEPH traffic etc. 

How to set this up?

My four servers have a built in 1gb Lan that suffice for VM traffic. But for Proxmox/CEPH I bought 10Gb cards and a switch..

I think this would be probable scenario for many of us..

Are you wanting to know how to reconfigure your Ceph network if I am following to use a different, diedicated network to segregate this traffic from general VM/management traffic?

Scenario: I have VMs installed on CEPH storage for HA. At the moment I am using the same network card for Proxmox host and VMs. I would like to instal a 2.5Gb or 10Bg or 100GBit network card and use it primarily for CEPH replication/storage.... 

 

Thanks
