Hmm I don't think I understand. My VM has 16gb of memory already. The live migration gets down to about 30Mi but can't seem to finish it. Why do you think more memory would help?
t
How much memory is available on the hosts?
c
I've got 64gb on each host. Total of 5 hosts. I'm almost taking up a whole host running rancher on harvester
Its like the rancher vm is so busy that the migration cant find a quiet spot to finish the migration. It gets 99% of the vm migrated but cant finish it so it fails eventually
t
Huh. I would check that there is disk space on each host. Then I would open a ticket on the github page. Add the support bundle if you can.
c
Thanks will do. As far as disk space is concerned, my harvester cluster is basically empty. I deleted all my rancher/harvester created clusters before i started moving things around. My harvester cluster should have plenty of disk available. Good news is this is repeatable so support bundle should be able to provide more info.
Thanks for the info!
Btw i didnt realize your the one on the youtube video. Thanks for creating those vids!
t
your welcome. I use to work for Rancher Gov. Let me know if you have any video ideas? OH. Are you using 10g networking between the nodes? Longhorn is a bit chatty.
c
Nice, a video with rancher/harvester integration may be cool. Ive been pretty impressed with the loadbalancer and csi integrations between harvester provider clusters but i keep figuring out more as I play with it. So im not using 10g nics. All 1g unfortunately. Technically im lacp bonding 2 1g nics so 2g for my dedicated storage network. I know its not "production ready" but im cheap lol. I may try adding more resources to those vms just to see if that helps tho My rancher deployment seems to have pretty high network traffic. So they appear to be doing a lot
t
Longhorn is super chatty. If you can get some 10gb cards and try and upgrade. YOU WILL see a difference. I did going from 1 -> 2.5gb This are the perfect home lab with 10gb : https://store.minisforum.com/products/minisforum-ms-01
c
Nice thats a bit pricey for me tho. Ill get something that fancy with my v2 homelab lol. I appreciate the suggestion!
t
Anytime. Let me know if you have any video ideas?
c
A video with rancher/harvester integration may be cool Using rancher to deploy a cluster on harvester. Deploy ingress with a harvester loadbalancer and then deploy a hello world app or something would be perty cool

Take a look at

. Also check out my other videos. the only thin missing is the app deployment with harvester LB.
For those playing along.

Nice good video! On the 10gb card, what router do you use? I realize my servers do have 10g nics but my unifi switch is one 1gb nice bleh
