I installed today Proxmox VE 4.4 (ZFS Raid 1) , but I found there is no /etc/zfs/zed.d directory.

I usually uncomment the line:

#ZED_EMAIL_ADDR="root"

inside the file /etc/zfs/zed.d/zed.rc to enable ZFS e-mail notifications, but I found the lack of the entire directory zed.d.

Am I missing something?

Thank you
 
Sorry for hijacking this old thread, but I've got the "same" problem.
I've got a fresh install of pve 4.4.1 where I get this when I try to install ZED.

Code: 
[100] % sudo apt-get install zfs-zed
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package zfs-zed is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'zfs-zed' has no installation candidate

This is what my source.list looks like:
Code: 
[100] % cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian jessie main contrib

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org jessie/updates main contrib

And these are the available *zfs* packages for this machine:

Code: 
[0] % sudo apt-cache search zfs                                                                       
bzflag-server - bzfs - BZFlag game server
libguestfs-zfs - guest disk image management system - ZFS support
parted - disk partition manipulator
simplesnap - Simple and powerful network transmission of ZFS snapshots
zfs-fuse - ZFS on FUSE
zfsnap - Automatic snapshot creation and removal for ZFS
libzpool2linux - OpenZFS pool library for Linux
libuutil1linux - Solaris userland utility library for Linux
zfsutils-linux - command-line tools to manage OpenZFS filesystems
zfs-initramfs - OpenZFS root filesystem capabilities for Linux - initramfs
libzfs2linux - OpenZFS filesystem library for Linux
zfsutils - transitional package

Am I missing something ?
 
Thanks!
The "No-Subscription" repo was missing. Thought that was in the sources.list.d/ like the enterprise repo.

Any reason why this isn't the default configuration ? Or do I just have a wonky install ?!
 
I guess that makes sense for an enterprise product :D.
But maybe you could add a checkbox/dropdown in the installer to switch either repository on or off. Just a thought.
 
If I apt-get install zfs-zed on Proxmox 5, it seems to want to drag down a lot of dependencies including zfs-dkms, spl-dkms, linux headers etc. - almost as if ZoL isn't already installed (which it was, I've been able to create zpools, ZFS storages etc.). I hoping this won't conflict with what's already there, but not sure.

Is this installation method still the authorised one?

yes. I guess you don't have your PVE repositories configured correctly (there is only pvetest for PVE 5 Beta, no no-subscription or enterprise) and are actually trying to install the stock Debian Stretch ZFS packages (which have a dependency on zfs-dkms, since Debian does not ship a compiled zfs module).
