Thanks for this. I wonder if there is a way to increase the udev timeout, so we can avoid having the pvscan process killed in the first place. 1. pvscan is started by the udev 69-lvm-metad.rules. 2. pvscan activates XYZ_tmeta and XYZ_tdata. 3. pvscan starts thin_check for the pool and waits...

Sorry to revive this old thread, but I had to ask: Am I wrong to think that the main reason for ZFS never getting into the Linux Kernel is actually a license problem? AFAIK the original ZFS license was created exactly to block integration with Linux, right? Or am I wrong and things changed?

I have read that Ceph requires 10gbit for being usable. It also adds in complexity. Or am I wrong?

Hi all! Thanks for this amazing project. I have been "studying" Proxmox for one or two months and I quite like it. I have been wondering about storage replication and disk mirroring for a setup. Does it make sense to have mirrored disks AND do storage replication on top of it. For...

Hi there! I also had problems to install Win7 with the virtIO drivers (both virtIO block and SCSI). My workaround was a bit easier. Just install Windows 7 with an IDE (or SATA) disk. Turn the VM off, attach a disk with the type you want to use so we can force windows to install its drivers...
