    `pve-efiboot-tool format` fails with "contains a filesystem ('zfs_member')"

    OK, I think, I found a solution. I must use /dev/sdXN instead of /dev/disk/by-id/...-partN with pve-efiboot-tool. I can still use /dev/disk/by-id with zpool.

    `pve-efiboot-tool format` fails with "contains a filesystem ('zfs_member')"

    I'm trying to replace a ZFS-mirrored boot disk follow the guide from the manual. Previously, I installed proxmox 6.1 from the iso using the ZFS-mirror option. The first part seems to work: new=ata-VBOX_HARDDISK_VB8cadd7f4-8b75e519 :~# sgdisk /dev/disk/by-id/$healthy -R /dev/disk/by-id/$new The...

    ZFS over ISCSI storage for LXC

    The wiki states However, when I create a container, my ZFS over iSCSI storage is not listed among the root disk storages. Does that mean that ZFS over iSCSI is an exception?

    ZFS over iSCSI disk creation error

    Oh, did not notice. I overcame this by symlinking the pool: ln -s /dev/zvol/warehouse/ /dev/warehouse And it works! Thank you! However, if I try to remove a created disk - it removes the disk from the VM configuration, but zvol and the Lun are not removed. I have to clean them up manually. Also...

    Proxmox 4.0 non-UEFI boot problem

    Re: Proxmox 4.0 non-UEFI boot proble Yes, this will be the next step for me. There is a small problem, that debian live does not boot in UEFI mode, so I would have to either install debian on ext4 using non-live iso and then convert to ZFS, or bootstrap debian from some other live distribution.

    Which commands do you mean? I did not have any problem creating a pool using partitions instead of disks:

Similar problem is also discussed here: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/landing-in-bios-again-and-again.46016/ . I tried setting...

    Proxmox 4.0 non-UEFI boot problem

    Re: Proxmox 4.0 non-UEFI boot proble I tried this - did not work. When I switch back to legacy - the server does not boot, falling back to BIOS. I also managed to boot from the usb-flash drive in legacy mode by setting the drive to "Floppy mode" in BIOS. When I did this, I got the "Not optimum...

    Proxmox 4.0 non-UEFI boot problem

    I am trying to install Proxmox 4.0 with zfs root. It states in the wiki, that zfs root is not supported on UEFI, so I'm trying to boot Proxmox installer from legacy-mode. First, I turned UEFI boot off in BIOS and tried to boot from USB-flash, which did not work - it simply did not boot and was...

    Proxmox 3.2 - dead web interface

    I kind of solved the problem. I did not find the real cause, but removing the pve packages with "apt-get purge ..." (except the pve-kernel), and the reinstalling them back again according to "installation on debian wheezy" manual helped. You should backup and restore the VMs of course.
