    Unable to load the system with a u.2 drive

    Hi everyone, i'm having an issue that i don't know how to troubleshoute. I boucht an Intel optane u.2 disk, with the aim of passing it trough to Truenas. The u.2 drive works even if it is an ebay-used one (94% life left, so i will probably die before the drive). To test it, i've tried on a...

    Booting issue Dell R730XD-Clover-PVE8

    I don't have exactly the setup as you, but I have had a similar issue before with the BIOS boot order and the empty disks being checked first. If the USB is booted first, should not be having any issue

    ZFS mirrored boot drive and memory usage

    Thank you for your reply. I've set my ARC as you suggested and now have rebooted. So far, not using too much memory, but will wait and see what happens over time. As for ZFS over ZFS, while I do NOT have a separate HBA, I have used the Passthrough Physical Disk to Virtual Machine method as...

    ZFS mirrored boot drive and memory usage

    since version 8.1 , pve set ZFS "ARC" to 10% of RAM , so it shoud be set to 6 GB. You can check with commande arc_summary -s arc is your TrueNAS VM use the not recommended ZFS over ZFS ? or do you passthrough a HBA ?

    Proxmox 8 crashes when copying data inside windows VM

    Same, windows VM crashed... not even blue screen, just if the Proxmox reset button was pressed. except I'm copying 1.8TB via file explorer from a network drive trueness to a virt-io scsi 3-ish TB virtual drive (mirrored zfs). All of this runs on the same machine and sometimes affects the Truenas...

    pbs allow rsync as well (longish)?

    Current setup. Proxmox server (SSD) running TrueNAS Scale with HBA passthrough of 4x8TB of disk in RaidZ2 config. Separate Debian baremetal server running rsync with 1x8TB disk to backup TrueNAS (not big enough, but working on that). I have an SSD for the Debian Server and want to run PBS there...

    [SOLVED] HBA Passthough not working after motherboard swap

    Hello, I have a proxmox machine with a TrueNAS core VM to which I was passing through (raw device) a HBA card with all of my hard drives and everything was working perfectly fine, I had my drives and ZFS pools. I just swapped out my motherboard from an Asus H510M-A Prime to a Gigabyte B560M...

    [SOLVED] Search for wisdom

    Hi everyone! I’m diving into the world of Proxmox and would love to tap into your expertise for my first major project. I’ve recently acquired a Dell PowerEdge T640, and my goal is to install Proxmox to satisfy my usage, media streaming and developing. Here’s the planned setup: Boot Drive...

    Slow Write Speeds on NVMe

    Okay great thanks. Is there a guide for TrueNAS best practise settings with setting up a VM like the Windows 10 one you linked me? I have PCI passthrough enabled for a HBA and x8 mechanical drives and would like to maximise the performance.

    Looking for a recommendation to pick NVME and HBA controller for home server with NO critical data

    Without PLP the drives cannot cache sync writes, so it's not the same. Consumer SSDs are prone to lose data on power outage, which you can indeed prevent with a UPS. You will probably not be happy with consumer drives because they will typically be slow with multiple VMs and wear out quickly...

    [SOLVED] Not working: Mellanox Technologies MT27520 Family [ConnectX-3 Pro]

    Hmmm, would you be ok to run lspci -nnk and paste the complete output here? That should help show if the HBA card and this network card are somehow attached to the same PCIe bus. Also, a list of the files in the /etc/modprobe.d/ directory would be helpful too, just to see if there's...

    Is this card good for disk passthrough to vm

    Hello good people, I'm looking into passing through 4 hdd's to a trueNAS VM running on proxmox 8, retiring my current direct USB passthrough, since it doesn't support SMART inside the VM. I have zero experience with HBA cards so I come to you asking is this a good card to passthrough 4-5 SATA...

    Proxmox to replace TrueNAS box

    Restore is problematic as you can't restore a backed up "disk passthrough" disk over a new physical disk. And for migrations you don't want passthrough so it could be migrated. Best is to run TrueNAS bare metal. If that is not possible (electricity bill or initial purchase or hardware), passing...

    JBOD HBA pci passthrough crashes host

    I have an older server: supermicro motherboard x9drx+-f that I'm running proxmox on. I have a similar older jbod that is connected via an adaptec 8405 raid controller. I'm attemping to pass the JBOD to a TrueNAS VM on the server using PCI passthrough but when I start the VM it crashes the whole...

    Boot from SD card Fails

    what i absically try to do is get myself a server for multiple things that so far needed all a microcomputer for it. having it in one palce is way better. I failed upon finding a smb share OS that doesnt run with ZFS. I had proxmox running fine, but with raid, and thus not being nice with...

    What should take primary responsibility for data integrity? Theoretical discussion.

    I store all important stuff on the TrueNAS because otherwise my Windows machines would need to use NTFS and I trust ZFS way more with its data integrity features that all Windows filesystems (except for ReFS that that my Win10/11 Pros don't support) are lacking. You don't passthrough the real...

    Disk spindown TrueNAS

    How do you use your disks? hdparm sounds like you use them for a storage on PVE and then TrueNAS with its ZFS on virtual disks on top of that? Or disk passthrough via "qm set"? Or PCI Passthrough of a HBA?
