Hi, I am not sure if I ask the question properly when I search but so far I did not find any threads dealing with what I need to do.

so here it goes.


I have a single Proxmox node setup on ZFS.
when all is done you have a local store "local(pve)" and a "local-zfs(pve)" store
both of them are setup and configured using main zfs pool "rpool"

since I used SSD as my boot drive I only have 120GB for system and other needs.
I created a ZFS raid1(mirror) pool "pvstore"

I created a LXI container from TurnKey file server template and only data store I could choose was local-zfs.
my question is :
1. how can I add my pvstore pool to be available in same manner as local-zfs pool?
2 is it possible to move the existing containers disk drive from local-zfs space to the pvstorage space?

thanks.

You have to add the storage in the Datacenter as type 'ZFS'.

is it possible to move the existing containers disk drive from local-zfs space to the pvstorage space?
This feature will be available in some weeks. At the moment you must do this manual with zfs send/receive and manual editing the lxc config.
