I have 3 servers (2 of them have 4x600GB hdd and one has 6x600GBHDD and 2x800GB SSD).

I want to build small splunk architecture 10GB/day with :

- 3 Indexers in cluster

- 1 deployment, licensing , master cluster indexer

- 1 searchead

What is my best option to build this architecture?

I was thinking to make server cluster using Proxmox and then deploy each of those machines in virtual environment, but I do not have NAS as different device, and to get best availability from server clustering I need to make those VMs as light as possible.
