@Jonathon Never use
--skip-broken. -
@Jonathon What's the output of
yum repolist? -

yum repolist
lol glad I checked then

Are there any rough estimates for timeline on paid support being available? Looking at ditching vmware and my company requires professional support availability. Virtualization I see the availability but I need storage as well that is at least mostly in parity with the vsan I have. Thanks to you all! Love these projects!
-
We are working at full speed to get it available ASAP. There's still some bugs to fix and LINBIT is working on it.
-
With the integration you are doing is there provision to designate racks/sites/datacenters/etc so at some level replications can be kept off hosts in the same physical risk space(s)?
-
XOSTOR works at the pool level. You can have all your hosts in the pool, or only some of them participating to the HCI (eg 4 hosts with disks used for HCI and others just consuming it). Obviously, it means some hosts without the disks will have to read and write "remotely" on the hosts with the disks. But it might be perfectly acceptable
-
@olivierlambert I've understood that part... what I am wondering is if I have 3 hosts in one data center and 3 hosts in another, and I have asked for redundancy of 3 copies, is there a way to ensure all three copies are never in the same data center all at the same time.
-
So I imagine a very low latency between the 2 DCs? One pool with 6 hosts total and 3 per DC right?
For now, there's no placement preference, we need to discuss with LINBIT about topology.
And if the 2x DCs are far each other, I would advice to get 2x pools and use 2x XOSTOR total
-
@olivierlambert Correct... these DCs are across a campus on private fiber so single digit milliseconds worst case. We've historically had vmware keep 3 data copies and make sure at least one is in a separate DC... that way, when a DC is lost, the HA VMs can restart on the remaining host pool successfully because they have their storage available still.
-
So you can create a pool across the 2x DCs no problem. We'll take a deeper look on telling where to replicate to avoid having everything on the same place.

This can be done using placement policies as outlined in the LINSTOR users guide. It will probably require a bit of extra work on XO to use those properties
-
Technically, you could use manual CLI call to do it until we expose it in XO
-
For those that might run across my questions here... there is a nice blog post at Linbit on how to span availability zones correctly to keep your data redundancy up:
https://linbit.com/blog/multi-az-replication-using-automatic-placement-rules-in-linstor/So CLI is doable
GUI would be nice in the future

-
@Jonathon I see no issue in this output, except that you enabled zabbix mirrors which might or might not play a role in your update issue.
-
@stormi If you open a support tunnel and give me the ID in a private chat, I'll have a quick look.

@stormi Message sent, thanks!

@Jonathon Ok, here's the solution, and the explanation:
First, just update
xcp-ng-release-linstor. This will update the repository file for linstor-related RPMs to make it point to a newer repository, located at a different place.Then updating the rest of the system will become possible again.
