truenas

My build started off a as an Unraid server but I'm now reconsidering going back to an earlier idea of running Promox as my hyper visor. Right now I have the CPU/MOBO/RAM and 4x NVME drives. In the coming weeks I plan on purchasing the HBA controller along with 8-12 SAS drives. I'm looking for...

Hi, I'm thinking about setting a truenas VM on a proxmox server and scenarios which I can choose for that job. On proxmox installation I have a ZFS raid10 pool for VM storage. I would create a VM for the truenas, but what would be the best option for the truenas storage? Scenario #1: One...

I want to passthrough a dedicated 10G nic port to my truenas scale setup. I typically setup the static ip address by mapping a mac address to the static ip in my dhcp server. Not sure how this will work with the passthrough nic. I know the mac address of the NIC port. However, not sure where...

Hello I have a Dell R740 server which has a PCIe backplane extender for nvme drives. I am looking to passthrough the extender to a truenas install . When I go to add PCIe device for the truenas vm, I don't see the extender listed though I can see it when I do an lspci on the proxmox node...

Hallo all, Short question about my TrueNAS vm. According to this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4DLChRXJog cache for log is speeding-up the performance. I dont have a complete nvme drive left to passtrough but could or should i use an virtual-disk for this job? Thnx in advance!

New Proxmox user here. I have a Proxmox Node (call it Node 1) that has numerous hard drive bays and just added another node from an older Optiplex 7010 SFF with 4 cores, 32GB RAM and is very limited on the number of drives I can install (call it Node 2). Currently I have TrueNAS installed on...

Hi, I recently just completed building my home server and was trying to setup a TrueNAS VM. The only problem that I'm having is that the HDDs are not appearing within the TrueNAS installation setup. When I go back to proxmox I can see all three disks. I was wondering if there was a...

The need for a better file sharing solution has arisen here at home. :) I checked out Techno Tims YT where he virtualizes FreeNAS and under hardware he adds a PCI device, the LSI disk device. Let me back up some... I am running Proxmox on a Dell PE R720, one ZFS Pool. If I were to add the LSI...

I want to perform a backup to my lxc container from my TrueNAS manually. What are the files that sould i back them? is the disk file (.raw) sufficient or there are other file ? Thank you

So I have a trueNAS VM that handles my NFS. I also have an LXC-unprivileged container with Jellyfin etc. I want to be able to mount the NFS inside the container to use as media storage. NO w from what I have read mounting NFS shares in privileged containers is currently not possible. The...

Hi All, I'm running TrueNas within Proxmox 7.2-3 on a Dell T630 server. Within TrueNas, I'm using four pass-through drives (da1, da2, da3, and da4). I'm trying to reduce power consumption and temps on my server, so within the TrueNas UI, I set each disk to spin down after 20 mins and to use...

My current NAS setup has Proxmox VE running on bare metal and TrueNAS Scale running in a VM. I created a zfs pool "appspool" from the UI: Datacenter -> Storage -> Add -> ZFS I then created a TrueNAS scale VM and passed through the disk qm set 900 --scsi2...

Hi. I'm currently doing some tests with Proxmox and TrueNAS (both on dedicated machines connected via 10gbit) and looking at the Proxmox backup function got me thinking: Would it make any sense to send uncompressed Backups to a TrueNAS volume with ZSTD compression (instead of doing the ZSTD...

HI totally newbie here. I have been trying to add a hard disk out of a ZFSPool to a vm which is running TrueNAS. The ZFS pool consists of 4 * 8T hard disks with RAID-Z1. However, I ran into 'out of space' error when trying to create the hard drive like below The capacity and available...

Hello everyone, I installed Proxmox on a MacPro 2013. Because logically no further hard disks fit into these and I didn't want to spend any more money on an external hard disk housing with Raid function. I took my Fujitsu Esprimo P7936 and plugged in all my hard drives and connected them to a...

Hi, Got a OPNsense VM on TrueNAS Core 13.0-U3 that I want to migrate to PVE 7.2. PVE also uses ZFS, so I shutdown the VM on TrueNAS, created a snapshot "migate" of the two zvols the VM is using (one zvol for root filesystem, one zvol for swap partition) and then used replication over ssh to...

Hello everyone, I am having some trouble right now, and I'm unsure how to solve it. My VM was running like normal, and after a while (probably after proxmox restarted) it disconnected one of the drives for that VM without allowing me to reconnect it. But it still shows up in the storage area of...

mounted the share in fstab and did mount-a in truenas i configured an nfs share But everytime i go to add a datastore and add the absolute path to /mnt/ProxMoxSharea it will not back to it. Even though that path is mounted on the backup server.

Hi, I am trying to passthrough a Dell H330 card in my Dell T630 server to my TrueNas Scale VM, but cannot get it working. I got this far: IOMMU enabled, driver is blacklisted, but no luck, looks like my BIOS won't allow this. Anyone managed to get this working on a 13th gen Dell server? What...

Hello, I'm struggling to understand the physical connectivity on how to make this work within ProxMox I am getting hung up on having two separate devices and how they will communicate properly. Currently I have a home built PC that I am using as my dedicated ProxMox server. From there, I have a...
