    Replacing zfs drive results in loosing boot partition?

    Many thanks for your useful comments. However neither the "zpool remove" nor the "zpool detach" work to take the drive out of the Raid. I am told thatr the rem ove does not apply to this type of Raid and that the detach is not applicable.

    The answer of course is to create a small VM immediatly after deleting the VM, and calling it "Dummy" or some such, malking sure that it picks up the VMID that you require to blank out.

    How to delete a VM in pve, but retain it on pbs?

    Yes I'd like to retain the backup on the pbs but delete the VM (and its associated data) on the pve system. AFAICT deleting the VM will delete the backup as well?

    How to migrate pbs backups to a new disc set

    I currently have a pbs running on 2x2tb+1x1tb discs on an lvm volume across all 3 discs. I originally set this up as a test , but it has worked well for 9 months now! Clearly I need to re-organise with a new new set of discs in a more redundant way. I'll go for 3 x 2tb using ZFS perhaps, or a...

    Low Deduplication

    I deleted about 2/3 of the disc contents of a Centos 6 VM, and the next two PBBackups took 23 hours each. However the third has only taken 11 minutes.
