AHA! Awesome - that was what I was hoping for, but all I could find were the ISO based install links. This is great - I will try it out over the weekend (so I have enough time to experiment and dabble with less distraction than usual). Much obliged for all the inputs

I have a PVE system and a TrueNAS each on dedicated hardware. I don't have a 3rd machine that I can dedicate as a PBS, but my own workstation has some decent capacity (24core, 128GB RAM, raidz2...running trixie). I currently use rsync and file copying of snapshots and manually run backups - from...

I can confirm that this tutorial DOES work - BIG thanks to the author!

Thank you again @Dunuin - my system is now running on pve8.1 without a hitch. Previous ZFS containing VM/LXCs loaded without a problem using a zpool import. I still have to do the move of the VM/LXCs to the new SSD z10, but that is minor, and the rest is perfect.

One day, when I am big, I will understand this properly, but for now I will just say... OK, thanks brilliant! This last part is what I wanted to confirm - awesome and thank you

The boot SSDs are unfortunately smaller(480 vs 900), but a fresh install feels like a good idea. I have done minimal pve/cli pieces, but whatever I did I have scripted and can recreate No problem to shut these down and then do backups/snapshots so they are fresh/current Thanks - it is just an...

I have a running PVE7.4 on a Dell R820 which boots & runs via a mirrored pair of 10k SAS drives on HBA(IT mode). rpool/ROOT/pve-1 on / type zfs (rw,relatime,xattr,noacl) I have a few LXC's & VM's which are on a PCIe+NVMe RaidZ1 (3+1) array. (/z1n/CTs /z1n/VMs /z1n/subvol-2001-disk-0 etc) z1n...

For 1 & 2 I was implying a baremetal TN/OMV instead of PVE - but I am really enjoying proxmox so would prefer to stay with it if possible

I have a JellyFin LXC which accesses shared storage (from the proxmox node) which works for my needs. I am planning to add a "new" (refurb) machine with much more storage - 1 HBA [with 12 drives (for ZFS vdevs) + 2 SSDs (for boot/OS)]. I will configure the SSDs as a mirrored boot/OS pair, and...

Are you installing a VM into your proxmox(hypervisor), which is already inside a hypervisor(VBox)? I am no expert, and this is not a criticism, but am curious as to why - especially on top of "stable" w11?

Does work, but better to use PKI keys for root login

zfs rename?

Based on the article I found here... I created a script as below...which worked for me. I am a novice though, so cannot offer any guarantees #!/bin/bash poolName="NAS-Local"; replacementDevID="/dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD30EZRX-00MMMB0_WD-WCAWZ1948935"; zpool status "${poolName}" | grep -i...

Quick & dirty solution would be to install pihole into an LXC/Container. Easy to use - has a web based GUI that makes life easy if you are not comfortable with CLI

Hey guys - I have had some fibre problems, and have been offline for a few days. It was obviously not my intention to abuse your knowledge without thanks. I can now offer my thanks and appreciation you for the inputs - I have managed to recovery fully from the problem because of the guidance...
