    Hello Proxmox community, I have a problem regarding the creation of a new ZPool. I have 6 SSDs of varying size that I want to form into a RaidZ2. The GUI is no good since you need the -f to "confirm" the wasted additional space. (I also tried with same size partitions, but proxmox only shows...

    ZFS - List Disk Hashes

    Hello, I have been searching for a way to find a way to compare VM disk hashes. An older backup-restore test server is setup with XFS and I can easily compare VM disks with sha1sum .

This means i can't take live snapshots and because it's just one node i don't need replication. Without using 2 major benefits of ZFS, should...
