I've successfully configured TrueNAS and Proxmox to work together using ZFS over iSCSI. However, creating, starting, destroying, or migrating a VM takes a LONG time. The logs for each event appear to be making retries. It always works, but the below entry shows up a few times before getting on with whatever task it's trying to do. Is this indicative of a problem or is there a way to speed this up?

Code:
Rescanning session [sid: 1, target: iqn.2005-10.org.freenas.ctl:vmpool, portal: 10.1.0.253,3260]

My hosts are connected to storage via 10GB SFP+ DAC cables. Running hdparm, my read throughput doesn't seem to be significantly effected, though I would be interested to know what the bad/missing sense data is.

Code:
root@template:/home/administrator# hdparm -Tt /dev/sda3
/dev/sda3:
 Timing cached reads:   22414 MB in  2.00 seconds = 11222.90 MB/sec
SG_IO: bad/missing sense data, sb[]:  70 00 05 00 00 00 00 0a 00 00 00 00 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
 Timing buffered disk reads: 1936 MB in  3.00 seconds = 645.24 MB/sec
