Hi
I am trying to understand how proxmox deals with the following scenario:
assume I have a local ZFS-pool and I am about to create a centos VM on that pool. Will that be feasible? given that centos can't be isntalled on zfs file systems. IF that is possible how is proxmox doing it under the hood?
 
The VM is agnostic about the underlying storage technology. That is all handled by the hypervisor.
Inside the VM you can use whatever filesystem seems appropriate.

Man that is super neat.
Thx a ton.
