Hi,

I'm currently running single OS disk in LVM and wanted to convert to ZFS rz2 (just don't want to reformat the test server). May I know this is possible?

Any working reference much appreciated.
Thanks in advanced.
 
Easiest thing would be to create a backup of each VM, reinstall PVE and restore all VMs, everything else involves lots of small steps including booting live linux etc. and I cannot suggest this until you're a linux pro with 5+ years of full-time admin experience, yet then you would not ask but do it :-D
