Installation configuration help for new install

[jrodgers]

Hi

I have a server with a 64 Gb SATADOM that I used to install PVE. There are also 4 disks in a ZFS Raid10 configuration that I want to use for VM, snapshots, and ISO storage.

I can only figure out how to upload ISO files to the SATADOM so that the reside in the default ISO directory there. It seems to me that there should be a way to change the default storage location of ISO files so that I can use the much larger storage space of the ZFS Raid10 storage pool. Right now I have very limited storage space available on the SATADOM since that is where the OS is installed and there is about 10gb of space left for ISOs.

Does anyone have a suggestion on how I could accomplish ISO storage on the Raid ZFS pool, or another location and get PVE to 'know' about it?

If there is a better way to configure this setup, I am willing to give it a try.

Thanks
Joe

a) Create a dataset on your ZFS Pool (for example ISOStore mounted at /tank/ISOStore)
b) In the GUI - Datacenter -> Storage -> Add -> Directory = /tank/ISOStore (content = ISOImage)

Thanks, I will give that a try. It looks like it should do the trick.
