    Proxmox dashboard readings missleading

    I have two VM running on 256 SSD ZFS RAID 1. When looking on to Datacenter dashboard HDD size makes sense, but when looking in to PVE storage things are getting complicated to understand. For example local-zfs-pve with total disk size 130GB holds 2 VM total size 175GB ??? Any suggestion how I...

    Copy to ZFS, fstrim

    Hi all, I have two issues: 1. When I do a command like dd if=rawfile | pv | dd of=/dev/zfs-pool/vm-disks/vm-109-disk-1 to import 96 GB large disk to Proxmox (the disk is created with 96 GB size), the occupied ZFS space increases for about 188 GB. Is this normal behaviour? I have tried on two...
