[PVE-User] Using PROXMOX node as stand-alone NFS shared storage

[JR Richardson]

Hey Folks,

In my PROXMOX Clusters, I use bare metal headless debian servers as
shared storage nodes using NFS. This works as expected of course. I
wanted to get a GUI based systems for the NFS Storage nodes, but do
not want to use a FreeNAS type of OS. What are your thoughts on
deploying a PROXMOX node in a cluster just using it to export local
storage as shared with the other cluster nodes. Basically what I'm
trying to accomplish is capture the performance metrics of the storage
nodes with a common use GUI, Disk IO, CPU Performance, Network Stats
and such. What is the storage export used by PROXMOX when you share
local storage to other nodes in a cluster?

Thanks for any feedback.
