Hello,
what would you prefer for a 3rd node in a 2-node server scenario at a
branch office location ?
1. proxmox pve install in a virtual machine located on a 3rd server (
which is already there for special purpose. no VM will run there as
there is no virtualization when installed as guest)
2. proxmox pve install on a thin client with AMD G-Series APU//
3. qdevice daemon on raspberry pi
i would probably prefer 1. as a virtual machine is the moest easy to
setup and most generic approach for me, especially that VM is getting
backup...
would that be worth consideration ?
what would you choose - and why ?
regards
roland

would really avoid that coupling at all cost.

If you want to go the VM way, why not setup the QDevice daemon in there?
That is avoiding full cluster comunication and suggesting the PVE cluster that
this is a full blown node but actually uses it as what it is: a vote arbiter,
and that's exactly what QDevices are designed for.
cheers,
Thomas
