Comment on Homelab upgrade - "Modern" alternatives to NFS, SSHFS?
possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 months agoHave you ever used NFS in a larger production environment? Many companies coming from VMware have expensive SAN systems and Proxmox doesn’t have great support for iscsi

Yes, i have. Same security principles in 2005 as today.
Proxmox iscsi support is fine.

It really isn’t.
You can’t automatically create new disks with the create new VM wizard.
Also I hope you aren’t using the same security principals as 2005. The landscape has evolved immensity.

Are you having trouble reading context?
No, I’m not applying 2005 security, I’m saying NFS hasn’t evolved much since 2005, so throw it in a dedicated link by itself with no other traffic and call it a day.
Yes, iscsi allows the use of mounted luns as datastores like any other, you just need to use the user space iscsi driver and tools so that iscsi-ls is available. Do not use the kernel driver and args. This is documented in many places.
If you’re gonna make claims to strangers on the internet, make sure you know what you’re talking about first.
