local-shared storage

[bea]

Hello,

I have a server with 2 disks of 1TB. I installed PVE using the ZFS mirror option, so the two disks are fully dedicated to this whole ZFS mirror. Everything works great.

I don't mind changing configurations, but I don't want to add any other physical storage.

How could I create a volume/storage/network-drive/partition (sorry, I don't know the right word) that could be used by my VMs and containers to store some of their data in it?

Then I would replicate that volume/storage/network-drive/partition/whatever to other nodes on the cluster I want to create.

Thank you very much!

Edit the script first to provide your default non-root login id for chown

Then after creating, in PVE GUI: Datacenter / Storage, Add the new dataset as Directory

e.g. for mine I use " zpoolnamehere-proxmox-multiuse " so it sorts right in the GUI

I did not know that was possible.

In the end I realized that what I need is just a common file server, so I'll go for a Turnkey file server.

Thank you very much!
