    After Update to 5.3-5: Windows 10 VM slow

    I just upgraded the Proxmox host from 5.2 to 5.3-5. Mostly standard configuration on a Dell T20 machine, ZFS with mirrored harddisks. Update worked fine, except that the only Windows 10 VM is now incredibly slow as soon as it gets to the login screen. There's no high CPU usage or I/O, it just...

    zfs: finding the bottleneck

    We switched from a HP hardware raid (HP P420i) system to our new Dell R730xd system with 128GB RAM and ZFS. The integrated PERC H730 Mini controller has been configured for HBA mode. There are 30 VMs running (KVM with zvol plugin, thin-provisioning), with assigned memory of 33GB (sum). Most VMs...

    mdadm or zfs raid1 for boot drive

    Which raid1 configuration would you prefer for 2x SSD as boot drives ? - ZFS raid1/mirror (choosen directly in Proxmox installer) - mdadm raid1 (Debian Jessie minimal installation with Proxmox on top) If one drive fails in a zfs raid1 with root fs, will it easily be replaceable?
