Hi team,

I run a ESXi system with a few VM's. For storage I ran Nexenta for many years then moved over to OmniOS.
Now I want to move to Proxmox hence my question if I can import the zpools to Proxmox (Solaris->Linux)? I would like to avoid do a restore from my backups as it will take a day or two..

Thanks in advance
 
Hi,

in generall yes this works.
But it depends mainly on the pool/fs version.
What pool/fs version do you get?

Code:
zpool get version <pool>
zfs get version <pool>
 
Thanks Wolfgang for quick response.

OmniOS 5.11 seems to be running:

Bash:
NAME  PROPERTY  VALUE    SOURCE
Tank  version   5        -

This is a very old server..
I cannot find what version PVE 6.x is running in the documentation.
 
And what about the pool version?
 
Try this
Code:
zdb -C <poolname>
