zfs

We had configured a simple zfs mirror between two Samsung 870 QVO 4TB SSDs. Recently the state of the pool has changed to "degraded", one of the SSDs went completely offline, it didn't even respond to simple smart commands (I tried smartctl --all /dev/sda and it returned a generic error). You...

Hello everyone, I'm new to proxmox and am not sure about whether I should go with ZFS and/or RAID or without for my hardware. My hardware: Lenovo ThinkCentre with Intel i5-9400T 1.80 Ghz 32 GB Non-ECC RAM 1x 256 GB M2-SSD for Proxmox installation 4x 4TB HDD What I already know is that ZFS has...

Good Morning Folks - or Good Insert time of Day Here! I've gotten proxmox-backup-client installed on a ubuntu box - took some doing, but its installed and RUNNING!!! But I have an issue! I have a zfs pool mounted - called "BigPool" to /BigPool. Inside is /BigPool/Media and /BigPool/Shared...

i have this bizarre situation where using ZFS on a Dell R730xd leads to something completely useless. i have spent most of an entire week trying to troubleshoot it in every manner possible. it simply. doesn't. budge. system topology: Dell R730xd it was two 2.5" sata ports in the back connected...

Hello, I have a 2-disk mirror ZFS pool for Proxmox (as root partition). When one of these 2 disks failed, my system has shut down all VMs and stayed in some emergency mode. Is it possible to setup, that on zpool disk fail, system stays running? Thank you. impact: Fault tolerance of the pool may...

Hi everyone, I have a Proxmox setup which automatically imports the default created ZFS root pool and makes it available as /rpool. That works because a cachefile is used and there's a systemd service importing all pools part of that cachefile. Though, I have one additional pool which I would...

i am having a storage freezing issue on a proxmox server that's using ZFS, and while i found a bunch of other people on the forum who have had the same issue, i am unable to find any kind of a solution. i know this is shooting in the dark a little, but does this error mean anything to anybody...

When I am trying to pass an entire SATA HDD to a TrueNAS Scale VM, which interface should I be using? SATA? SCSI? or Virtio Block? My Gigabyte H110 D3A motherboard only has one SATA controller, and four SATA ports on board. One of them is used for the Proxmox installation itself. As a result...

I have a pretty basic need, for a small business I own. Basically one VM that I need to run, and in essence I want HA, in the sense that if the node fails, it's taken over by another proxmox server. I'd prefer it to used shared storage ZFS, and I have this running in lab right now. I've stayed...

I've got 3 pve nodes in a cluster, one of which has 2 512gb ssds in zfs raid 1, with the other 2 exactly the same, but with 128gb. I recently bought some new drives and want to upgrade those 2 128gb to 512gb. However upon looking into it I can't really find an "official" way to do this, some...

Hello everyone, I wanted to implement ZFS over iSCSI with my Proxmox-Cluster (4 nodes) and my QNAP SAN connected via 25G Ethernet. I have found a lot of forum entries on some relevant topics but I am missing a bit a general guidance. What I found is that there needs to be a "plugin"...

I have 6 512GB SSD drives, which is configured as SINGLE zpool with TWO RAIDZ1 vdev for balancing write-speed and redundancy. Naviely, I should get a 2TB ZFS storage in my pve node, I named the storage as "Tank". But zfs list command tells me, I've got about 1.79TB total space of Tank. ZFS...

Hello, I have a very peculiar case of which I did not find any solution elswhere. I have a Proxmox VE 8.2.4 running on my homelab server. I have a 256 SSD as my boot drive and one 620GB HDD for some of my data drive. The HDD is configured as a zfs pool (ID: WdcZfs) with the entire 620GB for its...

Should I sell the RAID controllers in each of my R740s and just put Mini H330 HBA controllers in? The general consensus seems to be to use ZFS, so why waste a PCIe slot on these things?

I currently have the problem that my Proxmox host crashes at random times. My first thought was that CEPH was the problem, so I removed it from my cluster. After removing CEPH, everything runs more stable but I still experience host crashes. While moving data from my synology NAS to my TrueNas...

Hello, I have a handful of baremetal servers that I would like to migrate to proxmox vms. As I move the data off the servers, I can reuse hardware to add to the proxmox cluster. Each server is currently configured in a raid 5 with 20 ish Terabytes available. All storage is using HDDs and there...

I am looking to purchase a couple of Minisforum MS-01 systems for a small PM VE cluster, and they have support in the boxes for up to 3 x NVME drives, and I'm looking at options to configure these. I can get 96GB of memory in each box, but would like to have 4TB or more of storage per box as...

I have 3 nodes, but only two in storage replication in zfs, currently from pve02 to pve01, and pve03 only in lvm as a voting member, my cluster and my vms were created in pve02 on a server weaker than pve01 to make sure that the workload would work well, but as my pve01 server is a newer server...

Moin, und zwar will ich ein etwas größeres Setup aufsetzen. 2x HPE GEN9 DL380 und 1x HP MSA P2000 für den Storage der VMs/Container usw. Die beiden Server haben jeweils 7.Platten a 300GB verbaut. (+Smart Array P440ar Raid-Controller) Jetzt frage ich mich, auf den beiden Server wo dann ja nur...

Hi everyone, this topic is maybe a bit off-topic here: I am currently investigating in deploying a ZFS Proxmox cluster (2 nodes, 1 quorum device) in our company. When watching countless videos and reading lot of informations about proxmox. Somewhere in my brain I did store the information...
