    Why do LXC migrations between ZFS pools use Rsync?

    Hi, I have recently been moving some large LXC containers between two ZFS pools on the same machine and I've noticed something a little odd... Whereas moving a VM basically screams along as fast as the disks can manage, moving the containers is much slower - in my case, I'm getting ~70MB/s when...

    Migrating to another hypervisor

    Hello, I'm considering migrating away from Proxmox (specifically, to VMware ESXi). Migrating the VMs shouldn't be too bad, but I have a few containers as well which kinda don't feel that easy to migrate. Free tier for both. My guess is that I should migrate the containers to some sort of Linux...

    [SOLVED] Best way to access NFS mount from a CT
