Hi All,

I wanted to setup replication for a VM which ist hosted on a local ZFS Storage. I get the attached error message. Attached is the Hardware Config of the VM and also the ZFS Pool information. Is there any flag feature that I have to enable in teh File System. All topics I found here in the forum are about missing ZFS but as this is not the case here I am not sure what to do.

Thanks

In the first image it looks like your VM is stored on "local", which usually is a directory storage.

To ZFS replication to work it is a requirement that the source is on ZFS - and there is a ZFS pool with the same name at the destination, of course.

Thank you very much. The Problem was that I did not activate the local-zfs. After activating it and moving to that pool it worked.
Thanks
