Hi,

I choose to install proxmox on a ZFS mirror, with the intention to also replicate VM's.
After installation there is a mirror RPOOL with a LOCAL volume (known as a 'directory' in proxmox)

I try to replicate a VM to another node with identical configuration, assuming that this would be possible but i get the error message;
Code:
missing replicate feature on volume 'local:117/vm-117-disk-0.raw' (500)

Isnt the out of the box LOCAL volume a normal zfs volume where you can replicate VM's ?
I suspect that the issue here is that the volume is known as a ' directory ' in the cluster.

What would be the easiest way to fix this, or as an alternative to achieve a ZFS mirrored BOOT + VM volume with just 2 disks?
 
Fixed it by creating a ZFS volume manually on the cluster level. After moving the VM disks to that location i can replicate them.
