Maybe you are using SSDs or only 1TB drives with a low resilver time. IMHO even then RAIDZ1 is not really save. Imagine if one disk fails, and you switch out the wrong disk. ZFS has almost no guardrails and will let you do many stupid things...
For your information, your 4 wide RAIDZ1 offers 66.66% storage efficiency, while being very insecure. That is not that much better than a way better performing mirror at 50%.
You won't see this problem directly in ZFS. You will notice that...
I know it is pedantic, but in this specific case, there is no padding :)
He/she is wasting storage because of pool geomerty.
With 4 drives, we get a stripe 4 drives wide.
Each stripe has three 4k data sectors (12k) and one 4k parity sector.
For...
Lots do. I also always have to suggest this as well. If it were such a bad idea local-zfs wouldn't use it. I made a ticket in argument of changing the default if you care.
I have a little snippet here which might be useful if you still need to...
I agree. First performance and iops will suffer compared to a mirror or striped setup, second it will lead to waste due to padding see:

Another issue are the large...
Therefore I did not specify the disk. If you do, you need -r as option
So you missed checking the thin provision box in your storage configuration in the PVE UI:
before we dive too deep into snapshots and their storage consumption, we should IMHO look first at two more important issues.
I would argue that running RAIDZ1 is unsafe. Dell marked RAID5 to be against best practice and unsafe something around...
if you read the topic, and if you have same problème, then fleecing greatly help.
But as we have not info about your case, nobody can guess.
Open new topic is better with your specs and your flow
English is not my native language, so there could be a language barrier. To me, there is only one person here that sounds bitter.
I might sound like an oldtimer, I give you that. But I don't sound like an AI shill that is doomed to live forever...
Maybe I am oldschool, but I look at that list and think, why on earth would I want to do it that way?
I am not against AI. I also use it for stuff.
But for these tasks? These are almost all task where I would want a deterministic result.
To me...
I read the thread, and I guess I'm stumped on a fundamental point:
What does this tool actually DO?
your project description simply states:
Two backends behind one tool surface:
BackendMechanismFor
ManagementProxmox REST API + scoped...
This has nothing to do with Elitism, but that I'm a big fan of using the right tool for the right job. If you want to have a NAS in your home together with a few self-hosted services (let's say a HomeAssistantOS, maybe jellyfin or plex, an...
That is IMHO the job of sane defaults, not AI.
As to the rest of it, this is all mostly none issue if you simply follow basic best practices. Especially if you are new and don't know what you are doing.
- use mirrors and not RAIDZ for...
You brought it up, not me.
Just a friendly advice, based on my personal experience. Nothing more, nothing less. Feel free to ignore it.
But back to topic. Let us not put the cart before the horse. Why should I even want to manage PVE with an AI...
Not trying to be a dick, but I would never run software maintained by a single person with mental health issues.
But back to topic. Let us not put the cart before the horse. Why should I even want to manage PVE with an AI agent? Proxmox is...
