    [SOLVED] Bootable ZFS disk's upgrade question.

    Thanks, so in your opinion I should just update the second drive to larger one to keep disks the same in pool, and expand the pool to new size. No need to leave any empty space on disks as it will not have with wearleveling . Right? As to your question , no I did not run grub-install as it was...

    Your problem may be that your nic and pci you use for gpu are on the same bus. Try moving the gpu to different pci slot.

    hardware

    I guess you are coming from VMware setup. Proxmox is different. As it is a Linux based , and Debian to boot, it will and usually run on preaty much any hardware. It is hard to find machine that it will not run on. That said ,however, a lot depends on your use needs/wants. A simple...

    hardware

    It all depends on your needs but proxmox is Debian based. So what ever is supported in Debian will do. Now if you need passthrough support or something check what needed for that. But Dell Intel based server should work fine.

    install gui with lxc container

    There is a difference between showing a simple desktop and running a media client. An real VM emulates hardware and with passthrough it looks and feels,to the app, as a real pc. With enought resources Plex can run properly on VM. Lxc shares the resources with host and have a lot of constraints...

    install gui with lxc container

    Linux and proxmox are not the problem. You just trying to use things not designed for your needs. Try using real VM. Proxmox supports both, a lxc container and real full VM.

    How can I Remove proxmox

    I, personally do not understand this post. What exactly is the issue? You don't want to run proxmox anymore? Boot any live cd. Run parted/gparted, remove any partitions , create new partition table. Boot into install cd and install any other distro. Encryption only stops you from getting to...

    Drives not available in zfs

    Drives not available in zfs

    More info is needed. Maybe an output of zfs list as well as some others. Most likely you already have used all drives in zfs pool so they will not show up. If this are new drives You can try and go to command line and create partition table manually and see if they show up after that.

    Lost console access to container after cluster reboot running PVE 6.0

    No. The cursor just jumps to next line as if I am typing in text editor. When I try a pop-up noVNC it sometimes works or at times duplicates the black screen in the pop-up. Ssh from remote machine always works fine.
