    In Proxmox PVE 6.X I've noticed some odd behavior within the GUI when attempting to migrate an NFS mounted LXC container.

    Some thoughts on making live storage migration better.

    We have 4 Proxmox host servers and two different NFS servers for VM storage. We usually we manually distribute the VM storage load between them.

    In a replicated ZFS environment, containers can be easily migrated from one node to another, as the only supported migration mode of a running container is restart mode.
