hi @northflower if your not going to put anything else on the root drive I.e. iso, templates etc small spinning disk could be less expensive If you can find them. zfs in general does a lot more read/ write work and if you have a power loss situation data loss can occur with ZFS on ssd if they...

Hi all have eOS working fine, just make sure virtio is used for network, disk and graphics. boot into recovery mode open a terminal session with networking. install the qem-guest-agent and reboot. the graphical console should come up now. let me know if it’s still not working and I’ll double...

May i ask what do you mean by this? Are you saying your vDevs are different sizes? ""Cheers G

Hi @guletz Where both of those vDevs created at the same time or was 1 created and then another added later to the pool? ""Cheers G

@guletz thanks for pointing that out and you are correct with the numbers. Not sure if you can boot from a RaidZ2 pool? Overall you are correct, i’m really just looking at our use case scenario with only 8 drive bays available: 2 bays - mirrored pool for Larc2 Cache + Zil Boot OS 1 or 2 bays...

Hi @guletz thanks for the additional info. From what ive been reading having compression turned on makes the above statement redundant as compression will allocate the block to what ever fits best reducing the used space and delivering less platter spins to get to the data. From my research...

@LnxBil have a few questions if i may. 1. on FreeNass we pulled a Zil drive intentionally for testing this action dropped the pool and we needed to re import, maybe the workflow we used may have been different (Power off > remove drive > power on > pool gone) we will try again with power on and...

Ok cool that makes more sense. I was thinking the ssd mirrors could be split 32 GB zil and the remaining 440 GB for arc cache. for a production envoroment I wouldn’t want to have a single drive for cache & zil only, if the drive dies then we will end up with an offline host while we need to...

If arc is going to potentially hit what’s left for VM’s? they will both be competing for the same memory space. sorry what your saying is probably factually correct but it doesn’t make complete sense to me. any clarity would be appreciated. ta

Good info. Additional info: 256 GB Ram 2 x 480 GB enterprise SSD with capacitor for power outages. wanted to run with mirrored ssd partitioned for zip and arc. looking at restricting zfs ram to 64GB. And 3 pairs of mirror drives for data including root/ data hopefully the above makes more...

Sorry I may not have worded my info properly. 3 x mirrors (2 +2 + 2) that way we have the write ingest of 3 drives. Hope that makes better sense. ta

Hi Team Have been reading over the docs as my 1st port of call but haven't been able to find a definitive answer so through i would crowd source. Mixed opinions on here RE ZFS setup so im looking for a little more clarity. Best use of ZFS with you have 8 drive bays 2 drives can be allocated...

we can mark this as resolved. not sure what the fix was, potentially a ProxMox engineer fixed it when they where looking at our backup issue. we can mark this as resolved. thanks.

thanks have reported it. will update when they provide a fix in case others get stuck with the same issue. ""Cheers G

Hi @Fabian_E seeing some strange behavior at the moment. we have no automated backup tasks running so backups shouldnt be deleted, but every day im seeing the erase task execute and remove backups. The only vzdump jobs running atm are the ones im manually executing daily per VM. any ideas ...

sorry for the delay have had hands full with work. output below. # cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list deb https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-enterprise ""Cheers G

Yes thanks we have a subscription.

Hi Team trying to get ifupdown2 installed so we dont need to reboot to make Nic changes. when trying to install from repo we get the below issues pop up. any ideas? ~# apt-get --fix-missing install ifupdown2 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...

yes 7 backups are there. we have nothing added to default PVE setup so no there shouldn't be anything. the only thing that has changed is that we had an original schedule which provided a backup 1 per week for a number of VM's. A new schedule was created for a few different VM's to be daily...

Hi @Fabian_E VM's 113, 117, 120 have all been deleted, yes all the remaining VM's have 7 backups. I stopped the daily VZDump yesterday but prior top this after teh daily VZDump the manual backups was removed and no backups existed not even the once created by the daily VZDump script. Not...
