zfs

Hi all, i've got a problem migrating a vm in an 2 node cluster from pve02 to pve03. The vm is a pbs 4 with 2 disks (os 30gb & data 500gb). Both disks are located at a local zfs 2 TB nvme disk. the storage is called `nvme-2tb` on both nodes. the vm was configured in HA with a replication job...

Clickbait headline, but I think it is true :) Maybe others can chime in with their setups and why they need beefy hardware. Here is my PBS testimonial. Reading the documentation I was a little bit scared. Especially the storage part seemed brutal. Turns out it is not that bad and I...

I just installed Proxmox VE 9.1.1 to migrate from a wholly TrueNAS based solution. However, due to power outages, the ZFS pool that was managed by TrueNAS was in a degraded state. The disks themselves seem to be healthy, from their SMART properties, but I'm unable to import the pool as a ZFS...

I do want to say my setup is a little complex as it doubles as the boot drive and a special vdev in a 3-way Mirror. I have partitioned 200G just for the special vdev itself. I am running on a fresh install of Proxmox 9.1 with the pool running on the host itself. I have set special_small_blocks...

Hello, I recently updated my Proxmox PVE to 8.4 from 8.3. After the update I rebooted my Proxmox node, but after the reboot my VMs and LXC containers are not loading. It looks like my pool that has the location of my VMs and LXC, along with their backups are not mounting. During the boot, I am...

At least I'm assuming this is an issue with proxmox in combination with ZFS. (This doesn't happen on another proxmox host of mine with LVM, but that is PVE 8.3.2) I have an LXC on my ZFS (striped mirror) pool for VM/LXC data. It's currently running an IO intensive task, and this is the graph...

a bit of a Proxmox noob so sorry if I'm missing anything, having trouble determining the issue here and appreciate the help. I have a Raid 10 configured on my Proxmox server that's made up of 4 hard drive, 2 WD drives and 2 Seagate drives. A while back I was seeing some weird slowness issues...

Good day, We have used the Proxmox auto install feature using the `answer.toml` file since the release of this feature which is working really well for us. I was wondering if there was a parameter that we could use to disable thin provisioning for the automatic rpool creation? Looking in the...

Hello everyone, I am currently struggling a lot with my ZFS Pool (mainly SATA Issues). Every now and then i get a "SATA link down", "hard resetting link", "link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=0)". This then leads to ZFS Pool error, which than degregate my whole pool. As I thought...

I'm using pve-9.0. An error occurred when I moved files between ZFS datasets. mv: error copying './zh-cn_windows_11_business_editions_version_24h2_updated_aug_2025_x64_dvd_08e70c15.iso' to '/rpool/test1/zh-cn_windows_11_business_editions_version_24h2_updated_aug_2025_x64_dvd_08e70c15.iso'...

Hello all, ## Brief Explanation i am trying to do a basic ZFS Pool setup to use for my VM Ubuntu after a great ammount of search on the internet i realised some uses specific folders set up inside the zfs pool in the proxmox terminal. so it would be better used on the ubuntu vm . Since i...

I feel like this is a very basic thing at its core but i am so lost on it that i require some assistance I finally created a VM ubuntu server inside my proxmox .after attempting a lxc container for weeks. At the moment docker is installed. I have gotten myself a 2tb NAS Drive (WD Red) i have...

Hi Until recently i used an early return 1 in the activate_storage function (within /usr/share/perl5/PVE/Storage/ZFSPoolPlugin.pm) to prevent ZFS pools from automatically re-importing after being exported manually with zpool export data-pool. This worked great until including PVE 9.0.9. However...

Hallo, habe Probleme mit dem ZFS und komme nicht weiter. Ich nehme an das ich bei der Einrichtung der Laufwerke ein Fehler gemacht habe und hoffe der ist noch zu korrigieren. Habe 2 Knoten wie folgt eingerichtet: Irgendetwas habe ich wohl falsch gemacht. Die Replizierung läuft durch. Aber...

Hello, I have not seen this before with other pools and am wondering if it is something to be concerned about. Each drive in the mirror as reported by zpool status seems to follow a different "disk-by-id" naming convention. The nvme drives have identical model numbers, firmware configurations...

I'm running a ZFS Raid 1 on my promxox host. It looks like the resilver is stuck and no disk is resilvering anymore. How could I resolve this? I know there's no way to stop a resilver and I should wait for the resilver to complete, but at this point I doubt it will ever finish by itself. ╰$...

Before reboot, there was an I/O failure reported. I attempted to fix the pool with: zpool clear <pool> but the system hung, so I rebooted after about 30 minutes. I've attached relevant logs that I could find since I noticed the I/O failure. Only one drive (sdd) is showing errors. All drives...

Hi zusammen, ich arbeite mich gerade in das ganze Thema PVE. Am Ende sollte auf der PVE Node folgendes laufen - Homeassistant - Windows Server 2022 Domänencontroller (der sekundäre meiner Domäne) Im Rechner drin ist ein LSI 9300 HBA. Daran insgesamt 5 SSDs (PM Serie von Samsung). 2 x 240GB...

Hi, I am trying to set up a debian 13 LXC container on Proxmox 9.0.11 from which I can manage ZFS pools. I managed to bind the ZFS storage to the container, however, now I am struggling to get ZFS commands to work inside the container. When I try to use a ZFS command, I get zpool status Failed...
