An XCP-ng host runs the monitoring server, a NAS, the orchestration and management VMs and the main container host. Hyper-V hosts use a Dell EqualLogic iSCSI SAN (about 7.8 TB usable, RAID 6), which recently gained a second controller.
In place
- XCP-ng pool with an active-backup network bond and a dedicated iSCSI VLAN
- EqualLogic SAN with daily snapshots on a retention schedule
- Stale snapshots cleaned up, freeing about 1.5 TB
Next
- Bring the SAN fully healthy and up to gigabit speed
- Create an iSCSI storage repository for XCP-ng and move bulk data onto it
- Plan the controller firmware update path
