Hi,

We've got 2 locations with a PBS node and a PVE cluster.
We want to backup both clusters and replicate them with eachother.

I started with only a zfs-pool called "tank" and mounted the backup-datastore directly on there for each location.

Now, after a few months, i think it is best to create a datastore on a zfs-vol (or dataset) like this:

node1
/tank/clstr1
/tank/repl2 (for replication)

node2
/tank/clstr2
/tank/repl1 (for replication)

This way, the same VM-ID's and pruning does not bite eachother.

Is this correct?

Thanks in advance.
