Hi all,
That's my first post. I started in March to build up a homeserver and decided to give Proxmox a try. Never done virtualization before, coming from bare metal linux server (but also just newbie knowledge ...).
I try to setup an encrypted zfs pool with 2 disks. 2 x 2TB SSD. For the moment, I only have one of the two ssds. So I need to set it up with a image file as "place holder". (read in tutorials).
Unfortunately I haven't found a tutorial with this use case or I am just not good in finding my away around in Proxmox How-tos and documentation.
What I did:
Now I see Size = 3.99 TB in proxmox. I thought with my raidz1 with 2 disks I have something like a mirror and only 2 TB. How can I have 4 TB with this setup?
Thank you!

truncate -s 2000398934016 /missing-disk-container-zfs.img
zpool create -f -O encryption=on -O keyformat=passphrase -O keylocation=file:///root/container-zfs.key -o ashift=12 -O compression=lz4 -O atime=off -O xattr=sa container-zfs raidz1 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-SanDisk_SDSSDH3_2T00_213890446307 /missing-disk-container-zfs.img
