    [SOLVED] ZFS pool DEGRADED - Disk not showing up? Is it dead?

    @Maximiliano, thanks! I'm seeing some SMART errors on the drive that was giving me problems (ASRock is shipping new cables). The drive has been powered on for 7500 hours. Are these errors (which occured for example at 6 hours) measured from last power-on, or initial power-on (7500 hours ago)...

    [SOLVED] ZFS pool DEGRADED - Disk not showing up? Is it dead?

    Ok, I re-seated the SATA cable and it's back online but with checksum errors... root@proxmox02:~# zpool status -x pool: intel_mirror state: ONLINE status: One or more devices has experienced an unrecoverable error. An attempt was made to correct the error. Applications are...

    [SOLVED] ZFS pool DEGRADED - Disk not showing up? Is it dead?

    I'm running Proxmox on a DeskMini H470 with the following disk layout: 1x Samsung 970 PRO 512GB (for Proxmox installation) 2x Intel D3-S4510 960GB (for ZFS mirror - these are "enterprise" drives with less than 8000 power on hours) The other day, Proxmox was completely hung and I was unable to...

    Can I use my ZFS pool as data storage (in addition to VM storage)?

    I run Proxmox at home on an ASRock DeskMini, with the following storage: 1x 512GB NVMe SSD (Proxmox is installed here) 2x Intel D3-S4510 960GB SATA SSD (this is a ZFS mirror called intel_mirror where my VMs/LXCs reside) root@proxmox02:~# zpool list NAME SIZE ALLOC FREE CKPOINT...

    Tiny/Mini/Micro low-power hardware for PBS at home?

    Oof, I didn't know that, thanks for sharing! Sounds like a SSD is a requirement then!

    Tiny/Mini/Micro low-power hardware for PBS at home?

    I'm backing up to a NAS with HDDs now, so I figured PBS should be able to do the same. But yes, current backups (the full-size backups) are 220GB total.

    Tiny/Mini/Micro low-power hardware for PBS at home?

    I'm running Proxmox at home on a single server and currently have backups setup to dump to a NAS. This obviously takes up a lot of space, since each backup is full-size. I'd like to setup PBS on a separate piece of hardware. Ideally, it would be a Tiny/Mini/Micro box that is low-power. I only...

    avx2 cause kernel panic

    Did some experimenting and found that I needed the xsave flag (in addition to avx and avx2) to run MongoDB. See here.

    Feature Suggestion: AVX/AVX2 CPU flags

    @fabian, thanks for the info. I setup my cpu-models.conf file as follows: cpu-model: avx flags +avx;+avx2 phys-bits host hidden 0 hv-vendor-id proxmox reported-model kvm64 In my Docker VM, I can see the AVX flags (I have 4 cores). root@docker05:~# grep avx /proc/cpuinfo...

    avx2 cause kernel panic

    What action did you take to cause the panic? Just setting the CPU type and booting? Or doing a Mongo-based workload using AVX? I'm running the latest Debian 11 with an AVX CPU and it seems to be stable so far, but I haven't spun up Mongo 5 yet... cpu-model: avx flags +avx;+avx2...

    Feature Suggestion: AVX/AVX2 CPU flags

    I also need AVX to run MongoDB 5.x, but don't want to use `host`. When I create the custom CPU type, as per the instructions, am I extending the `kvm64` flags, or am I only getting the AVX flags and nothing else? What are the default flags on `kvm64`, and do I need to add them, as well as avx...

    Best to store VMs/CTs in zpool or in separate datasets?

    I have a single NVMe drive for Proxmox to boot from. I'm going to add 2x SATA enterprise SSDs to my host, create a ZFS mirror, then move my VMs/CTs to that mirror. Is there any benefit from having separate datasets for VMs and CTs (like below), or should I put everything on the pool itself...

    [SOLVED] ZFS newbie. Want to add 2x1TB drives (ZFS mirrored) to setup. Is it better to put VMs/CTs on zpool, or use pool for data?

    Thanks for the reply! I've been reading a lot about ZFS the past few hours. I think I'm going to go with my option #1 and leave Proxmox on the NVMe drive, and add the SSDs in a mirror for VMs. Proxmox already does VM backups to a NAS, which itself is backed up to the cloud. If the VMs are on a...
