    Yes... I did originally want to use that storage as a temporary measure while I was sorting other things out. Selecting it for this particular VM was not intended! Agreed, but I'm not sure much useful has been lost there. At the time of the...

    Hi, It's a PowerEdge R730, and the disks are connected via the H330 in HBA mode. Pool0 is just mounted at /zpool/pool0 with a volume under that for PBS and another (now deleted to avoid future mistakes!) for VMs. zpool status probably isn't that...

    Hi, I previously had PBS installed on a Dell R710 alongside PVE 7.x - This was a couple of years ago, so I can't remember which version of PBS it was. The server was damaged, and has been unused since. I've now installed PVE 9.2.3 and PBS 4.2.1...
