Proxmox and BTRFS

[starnetwork]

Hello Team,
about BTRFS, there is any plan to create GUI manage for it like Proxmox have for LVM, LVM-Thin, Direcotry and ZFS?
I have seen btrfs storage plugin on Roadmap, this not refer to gui manage?
waiting until technology preview will done?
any estimate / detailed info about that?

Thanks!

Hi,
yes, in the middle-long term, there will be more UI integration. But I can't give any concrete estimate. There's still a few corner cases to be ironed out, before we can drop the technology preview label e.g.

+1 Please - ZFS is RAM hungry...BTRFS is better lightweight alternative.

Every FS is RAM hungy and that's good. If you don't like the upper limit of your ZFS, set it appropriately to your needs.
