Question to the hive mind.
I am migrating a fileserver from ESXi to XCP-ng but the data drive is 4.5Tb and mostly in a single share. In the future this will be reorganised but for now thats what I have to work with.
I am using a Synology unit as the storage for XCP-ng with a 10Gb connection.
Filserver OS is Windows Server as are all the other servers. Using on-prem AD at the moment for user access control.
XCP-ng has a disk size limit of 2Tb so I’m looking at either creating an iSCSI connection to a LUN on the Synology unit or setting up their shares on the NAS directly.
The storage is mostly standard file storage but there is also an application with an old PSQL database in there too.
Any recommendations on which way to go or other ideas?
Cheers.
