Hello,
Upon creating a new Proxmox cluster I get the following ZFS mountpoints:
Code:
root@pmx1:/# pvesm zfsscan
rpool
rpool/ROOT
rpool/ROOT/pve-1
rpool/data
root@pmx1:/# zfs list
NAME               USED  AVAIL  REFER  MOUNTPOINT
rpool             41.0G   362G    96K  /rpool
rpool/ROOT        36.7G   362G    96K  /rpool/ROOT
rpool/ROOT/pve-1  36.7G   362G  36.7G  /
rpool/data          96K   362G    96K  /rpool/data
rpool/swap        4.25G   366G    64K  -
What mountpoint should I use when adding the ZFS storage in Proxmox's U?

Thank you!
 
Hi,

You have not to add a storage.
You have already local-zfs what is for VM/CT.

Thanks for the blazing fast reply!

I'm using OVH's "Proxmox 5 ZFS Template", which creates only a "local" storage (as Directory, see here). The ZFS pool is already created but it's not added into the Proxmox cluster, so I guess that I need to manually create the Storage and select one of the mountpoints, hence my question.
 
Sorry, I don't know this template.

Then you have to use the "rpool/data"
