    Recently the primary non-os disk for my proxmox install is showing as 100% free despite also showing it contains several hundred GB of data on it.

    Multiple clusters use same Ceph RBD storage

    Hi, I want multiple Proxmox clusters to access the same Ceph RBD storage. IMHO this should be possible, but without manually choosing VM IDs in both clusters there would be collisions for disk names. Are there options to avoid this with either defining a custom disk name template (preferred) or...

    [SOLVED] Samsung SM883/PM883 SATA SSDs for ZFS RAID1?

    So far I've read the Samsung SM883 would be great in general. Would that be so? There are also PM883s and cost 50% compared to the SM883. Are they both do their job, without queuing a regular (VM) Windows 10 update for example? I've been using 2 PNY CS900 and they hit the limit pretty fast...

    [Suggestion] Comment/Description field to accompany VM disks?

    Hi, Wasn't sure whether to post here or create a GitHub issue. Whilst managing VMs it's generally a hassle to cross-reference disk IDs all the time and I can imagine lead to people accidentally deleting the wrong disk - especially when more than one disk is on the VM with same pool/capacity...

    [SOLVED] ZFS raid1 with VM-disk filesystem question

    Proxmox is using a ZFS raid1 storage. On there, a disk has been created for a VM. This disk is currently formatted as ext4. Does that make sense? I guess its up to me. I'm just double checking. I might format the disk to ZFS, since it has the ability to check integrity.
