So let me tell you my setup and configuration before I asked the question

1x Dell R710 3.5 drive (Plex data storage) - THANOS
1x Dell R710 sas drive (Nas storage) - LOKI

both servers have TrueNAS installed, THANOS is ONLY used for Plex data (TrueNAS OS that is)

LOKI is used for business storage/home storage and jails for Radarr/Sonarr

This configuration may be all over the place but trying to find a better way.


I need to have my jails ok Loki to access Plex storage on thanos

How can I mount between the 2, either Proxmox and/or TrueNAS

Because of storage I need to keep my jails active on Loki but it needs to be able to ready/write to thanos


 
I dont really get what you are doing...

You got 2 servers that you use with TrueNAS. Is TrueNAS running bare metal or are they both running Proxmox but with TrueNAS in a VM?
If you got Proxmox running on both...why are you using jails at all? Main reason I switched from FreeNAS to Proxmox was to get rid of jails and bhyve VMs because TrueNAS is a very bad hypervisor.

And for the shared storage...
ZFS can't be shared between hosts. For something like that CEPH is a better storage choice. If you want share data stored on a ZFS pool you can only use NFS/SMB/iSCSI for that.

Yes sorry I didn't explain very well
2 servers with Proxmox running bare metal

2 TrueNAS on each one just for shares for Windows SMB access.
