    Dedicate physical eth to KVM

    Hi anubis, you need two things to get this working: 1. The swtich port that eth3 is connected to must be configured to allow tagged ethernet frames only, attach the port to all VLANs you want to use in the KVM 2. In Proxmox' hardware settings tab of your KVM make sure that you enter the...

    ZFS plugin works almost perfectly on Netgear ReadyDATA

    Maybe I should have noted that the ReadyDATAOS does not provide the Nexenta-API! The Netgears guys are working on some API but afaik it will not be compatible to nexenta, VAAI or anything else out in the wild... sigh... Cheers, alex

    ZFS plugin works almost perfectly on Netgear ReadyDATA

    Hi Mir, thanks for your answer! Do you also know which cammands are used to create snapshots? And what does your last remark imply? What special requirements would that? Will the ZFS plugin possibly not work at all on non-nexenta-base products anymore? Cheers, alex
