I clearly understand the concept of being agnostic and agree this approach. But from other side: Proxmox recommends ZFS - so IMO work with ZFS should be done with native ZFS tools.

@fabian If You got >10 milions files rsync doesn't work well (with expected performance - any file-based-tool won't). Default storage agnostic procedure is OK - but for ZFS we got much more better options. If we use ZFS on both sides: - Proxmox->PBS for backup, - PBS->Proxmox for backup...

Got a case when: one PMG is a gateway for 3 SMTP servers (all of them are iredmail). Each of server is dedicated for other company. Problem: One of SMTP server could make mail-exchange blocked for others. How? Imagine situation when IP goes to RBL. Resolve: I would like where mail exchange...

This was second main thing that I jumped out to ZFS stack from LVM. So for ext4 we should use "lvmsync" and for ZFS "zfs send/recv".

In this example I got two remotes VPS1 and VPS2. In the past when the container was <500G I was using rsync and backup/restore method. Now when the container has almost 2TB. I am not able to migrate this container with resonable downtime. So for workaround I did: # example1: initial replicate...

Its better to set many changes at once: This: pre-up ethtool -K $IFACE rx-checksumming on pre-up ethtool -K $IFACE tx-checksumming on pre-up ethtool -K $IFACE tx-checksum-ip-generic on Could be: pre-up ethtool -K $IFACE rx-checksumming on tx-checksumming on tx-checksum-ip-generic on Good...

I know that difference but in backup process incremental snapshot using zfs send / zfs receive time is also the same. Maybe PBS/PBS Client dev should use other magic spells for backuping LXC?

Well - doing incremental backup I see that comparing backups VM(1TB) and LXC(800GB) speed there is 10x performance gap (or even more! - doing backup for LXC is significantly slower even if it's smaller) I did some test zfs send/zfs receive to remote host not differs so much. Local storage...

Sorry. Dictionary in my Phone made bad things sometimes. I mean PLP technology - capacitor on SSD Drive. That allows to scream by ssd "write done" before it is done because it save. Check pvestat command on both drives.

Most important if You use ZFS: buy SSD with PLOP (performance 2-2.5x !!!)

This issue is only valid when there is a 2x Mellanox ConnectX-3 cards. I changed the cards to ConnectX-4 - all works like a charm.

I tried to juggle cards with different PCI-E - it didn't help. When I turn on second network device (no matter whitch) it gives me an error: genirq: Flags mismatch irq 16. 00000000 (vfio-intx(0000:88:00.0)) vs. 00000000 (vfio-intx(0000:05:00.0)) It looks like some race condition bug when I...

When I am trying to start VM with passtrough two network devices there are errors in DMESG: root@rtx-proxmox:~# dmesg | grep 'Flags mismatch' [ 99.938242] genirq: Flags mismatch irq 16. 00000080 (vfio-intx(0000:81:00.0)) vs. 00000000 (vfio-intx(0000:08:00.0)) [ 302.258175] genirq: Flags...
