    Strix halo , USB4 / Thunderbolt 5 problems .

    It does work in windows 11 correct , but it's a can't win case in Linux/promox , you can't pass it to a windows 11 VM because the USB 4 is part of the chip set driver which will not install , but in proxmox it will see USB 4 as USB hi-speed , The thunderbolt 5 is seen as thunderbolt 2 . But the...

    move vm to another proxmox system

    I was going to say the same thing make a backup copy , a VM is self-contained so all your data should be contained within the backup . BUT ......... don't forget you are making a COPY , the mac address , names , etc will all be copied . so use the thick box which say unique , if you want a...

    Vlan for VM

    o.k , Sorry don't know about the Omada network , i'm on ubiquiti . First do you have a router which will route the vlans ? , do you have DHCP for each vlan ? , have you set the default gateway correct. Let say you have a vlan iot vlan 30 , 192.168.30.xx . first it need to find a DHCP server on...

    Vlan for VM

    easy , going into Network on the VM or CT you want to set the VLAN , set the VLAN Tag to 30 . Now that VM will be on VLAN 30 , but now that bridge will contain untagged from the other VMs or proxmox , plus tagged traffic vlan from that VM. But your router / switch port connected to your need to...

    Making ZFS mirror from 2x 4TB disks and 1x 8TB disk

    Trying to think how many years ago it was 20 - 25 year , I was into Ham packet radio 70cm / 2m / 4m which is slightly faster than IP over carrier pigeon , but I think the internet killed packet radio too.

    Making ZFS mirror from 2x 4TB disks and 1x 8TB disk

    I would A/ get a extra 4tb drive then you can have a raidx1 8tb or B/ get a extra 8tb so you can have 4tb + 8tb mirrors , but I guess that wasn't the question asked .

    Making ZFS mirror from 2x 4TB disks and 1x 8TB disk

    The only problem is if I have right is , on two of the drives all the data would be sort of contiguous , so it could read from one drive then the other , but on the big drive the head would have keep switching between the partitions , so I guess the performance would depend on the HDs cache ?

    Making ZFS mirror from 2x 4TB disks and 1x 8TB disk

    I could be wrong but to have a 4TB + 4TB strip mirror to 8TB is like have a 4TB nvme drive mirrored to 4TB hard drive ?

    Best practises for proxmox disk file system?

    I would use the smallest drive for boot only and use the fastest drive for running the VMs off , one thing I have learnt is never store you backup and VMs on the boot drive , because if you corrupt your boot drive it is very difficult to get to your backups and a reinstall deletes the lot. So...

    ZFS SMART values .

    Was doing a little checking of the smart values of my disks in my ZFS arrays , a have a 12TB iron wolf mirror array for backups and slow media where I don't need the fast IO , How I think ZFS works is it should read and write to both drives at the same time , but looking at the smart value I'm a...

    zfs pool wont mount, all disks healthy

    Hi , the assigned to LMs is 100% on mine , it's the amount assigned to the LMs not the amount used in the LMs, From the last time my system went wrong I've learned one thing , never store any VMs , Backups on the boot drive , that way if it get totally messed up it's sometime easier to nuke from...

    IOMMU passthrough HDD

    I guess the answer is it depends on the controller and if you can separate your proxmox boot drive from what you are passing via iommu. if you are booting from a nmve drive you should have a free sata controller to pass, but looking at my system most of the chip set is on the same iommu group ...
