The Proxmox Corosync fallacy

TL;DR Distinguish the role of Corosync in Proxmox clusters from the rest of the stack and appreciate the actual reasons behind unexpected reboots or failed quorums.

Using sshfs high-speed no-encryption

I’ve written before about the extreme usefulness of sshfs for accessing files remotely without having to install server software. It continues to be an important part of my toolbox, as does its cousin CurlFtpFS which – unlike sshfs – I can even use to mount a directory here on my web host. Of course, either becomes even more useful when combined with some easy method of synchronization. You probably have rsync already. You can also use Unison if you need bidirectional synchronization – which you generally will if you’re trying to use a single directory somewhere as a “drop box” to share between multiple machines.
I just found another sshfs trick today. If the connection between your two machines is already secure – e.g. on the same private network or connected via a secure VPN/tunnel – you might want to avoid an extra round of encryption and decryption by using the “-o directport” option to sshfs. T
