Hi,
I've been reading around the forums and am willing to convert my freenas server to proxmox.
But I still have questions about how to continue this process.
I figured out that I can easily import my zpool from freenas into proxmox.
But for the jails that I'm running in freenas, should I run them as a docker in a linux container (no need for a vm I suppose?) (I'm running plex, sonarr, radarr, sabnzbd, clamav and transmission)
I'm also thinking about adding pfsense as a vm, but that's for the future.
My current setup:
* freenas os on 2 ssd's (in mirror)
* jails/plugins running on 1 ssd and 1 nvme (mirror)
* datatank with several datasets (6x 4tb hdd's)
I was thinking that during the install I could install proxmox on 1 of the ssd's (that currently host the freenas os)
install vm's on the ssd (that currently host the jails/plugins) and import the datatank zfs pool.
I'm not sure if i'll need to install freenas as a VM or not, since i'm only using snapshots, sftp, smb, nfs and timemachine backups as services.
Steps that I'll be doing/following:
install proxmox
configure network etc..
import zpool
install linux containers for the services I want and configure them
(if needed to install freenas as vm, I'd install freenas instead of the linux containers and enable pci passthrough for the HBA)
future install pfsense:

Am I missing something or if you have tips/tricks they're always welcome!
thanks in advance!
