    Can I create a ZFS volume in Proxmox, then mount and format it on my VM?

    Managed to expand it to about 950GB, there's about 350GB left now. I had heard of the volblocksize attribute but mistakenly thought it only really influenced performance. It makes sense though since I'm guessing there's extra padding for the zvol. I think I might go back to the drawing board on...

    Can I create a ZFS volume in Proxmox, then mount and format it on my VM?

    Realised why I was getting confused. I was looking for a UUID to mount it, but those are only generated for partitions, so partitionless disks only show /dev/sdb1. However, I'm running into a different problem now. I'm trying to expand the ZFS volume for the VM by 5837GiB. There is 10025GiB...

    Can I create a ZFS volume in Proxmox, then mount and format it on my VM?

    Huh, that's exactly what I did but I was under the impression that once you formatted it as GPT it wolud provide a /dev/sdb1 to put the ext4 on. I'll give gparted a try, think I'm having a layer 8 fault :).

    Can I create a ZFS volume in Proxmox, then mount and format it on my VM?

    I've only touched it on the VM end, just wasn't sure if I was doing something wrong. What I'm trying to do is use the ZFS-backed volume as a secondary storage device (for data) in the VM that I'll probably mount to /mnt. The VM itself is already installed on the primary SSD.

    Can I create a ZFS volume in Proxmox, then mount and format it on my VM?

    I managed to figure that out, sorry forgot to update. However, within Proxmox there is now /dev/zd0 which Proxmox has mapped to the Debian VM as /dev/sdb. How do I format the volume? Do I do it in the VM or in the Proxmox hypervisor? On the VM there is /dev/sdb but there's no /dev/sdb1 to...

    Can I create a ZFS volume in Proxmox, then mount and format it on my VM?

    I have a ZFS pool that has been migrated to Proxmox. I have a couple of VM's running that I all want to have access to my zpool. However, I want to manage folder permissions on the VM side since it's much easier to control access on a per-user basis. Can I create a logical block volume with...
