Problem with existing Zpool (Re-add it to VM)

[Wildcat]

Hello (Sorry for my english)

I have a proxmox server; i rarely touch in 2 years.
with XPENOBOOT image.
i move my server and i have some trouble with disk order (LVM PVE not found) at the boot.
I try many thing but at each boot i have trouble with this.. i make manualy : vgchange -ay and exit each time i reboot this.

I fix the rest of the disk order with my ZFS volume and my zpool are ok for now.
Now its ok but its failed to be add in my VM in the GUI.. i don't now why.
my vm cannot access to the Zpool (10TB)

zpool list
NAME SIZE ALLOC FREE CAP DEDUP HEALTH ALTROOT
PoolRZ2 16.2T 5.91T 10.3T 36% 1.00x ONLINE -

how i can relink it to my vm ?

Thx

So what is failing? Did you have you VMconfigs? Is the zpool added as storage? Or you can't start the vm's? .... it is not really clear for me. I'am right when i say you have PVE installied with LVM, and then added some own ZFS-Pool?

Please post your "/etc/pve/storage.cfg" and one VMconfig. Post also your Systemversion "pveversion".

I have a LVM on SSD (64gb)
16 GB for Proxmox and 32 for data (Images / Template etc)
And i have a ZPoll of 6x3TB (10Tb) for data storage

Normaly i use the 10TB for a disk space on my VM with XPENOBOOT. But when the try to recreate the Zpool i remove it from the GUI.
After that i fix the Zpool but i cannot re-add the Zpool as a hard drive in Proxmox (Error 0 500)

There is my config :

lvm: SSD
vgname pve
shared
content images

dir: local
path /var/lib/vz
content images,iso,vztmpl,rootdir
maxfiles 0

dir: MEDIAS
path /PoolRZ2/PROXMOX
shared
content images,iso,vztmpl,rootdir,backup
maxfiles 1

zfspool: PoolRZ2
pool PoolRZ2
content images

Is it normal i don't see PoolRZ2 in this command ?

Ok ; I'm not sure but i think i have a idea on that going wrong in my config.
The DIR PoolRZ2 are normaly used for the mounting point of the ZPool.
But now its create a directory PROXMOX in it with : dump / images / private / template.

But now i cannot remount it in good path : cannot mount '/PoolRZ2': directory is not empty

*Edit : Ok i found a way to remount it manually
(Erase the folder i try to remount it) Its work.

I Found my image of 10,471373403136001 TB
/PoolRZ2/PROXMOX/images/100/vm-100-disk-1.qcow2

I must find a way to relocate it in my VM now and fix all of this for the next boot.


** Ok for now i have all my storage in this existing file : vm-100-disk-1.qcow2 (10.47TB)
In this path : /PoolRZ2/PROXMOX/images/100/vm-100-disk-1.qcow2
I would like to Re-Add it in my existing VM as a second hard-drive (AND NOT BE OVERWRITE ALL MY DATA are on this image)




And be sure at the next reboot all of changes are be dones.

Thx for your help
