Hello,

Where can I configure the frequency for scrubs of the zpools on my Proxmox server? Also, where is the history of previous scrub attempts logged?

Thank you.
 
zpool status -v should tell you when the scrub was run the last time. The cronjob "/etc/cron.d/zfsutils-linux" will trigger the scrub every second sunday of a month at 0:24 in case you didn't set up anything else yourself.
@Dunuin Thank you very much.
 
Is it safe to edit /etc/cron.d/zfsutils-linux to change the interval? I wonder if a pve upgrade might change it back or similar.
