Hi all, I've been having a hard time with a new proxmox install. I've installed proxmox in a ZFS mirror in 2 intel S4610 ssd. I am able to boot if its just the ssd installed, however when I install my NVME drives, i get the failed to import pool error. Anyone with experience?
 
Just a guess...sometime you can't use all SATA port if you want to use the onboard M.2 slot. On my supermircro board for example I got 10 SATA ports but the "SATA0" port will be disabled if a M.2 SSD is found (because M.2 supports SATA mode too).

I wish that were the case. However this is a PCIe NVME and which ever slot I put it in, immediately proxmox does not see my Intel SSD. I can see all the drives fine from the bios. Even selecting the SSD as boot override does not help. I'm using a ROMED8-2T Asrock Rack if it helps. Proxmox boots just fine with just the SSD installed. Does anyone know of a way, maybe a config file for me to edit so that proxmox will only look at the SSD for boot?
 
I have an update, I have everything working now, I do not know why but it works when I enable SR-IOV. I have no clue why that is so....
