PVE installed RAID10 on 4* SSD - two extra NVMes added - how to use them?

[zaphyre]

Hi, I have a new Proxmox 7 server which was installed with 4 SSDs on an HBA as ZFS RAID10. under "Disks" -> "ZFS" there is "rpool" correctly showing the storage. So far so good. There is now a Storage called "local-zfs".

Had two extra NVMe disks which where wiped and added as ZFS "mirror" trough the PVE gui. This is called "nvmes in "Disks" -> "ZFS". There is also the "rpool" which was created by the installer...

When I want to add VMs or CTs on that machine I only see "local-zfs" as Storage. Question is, how do I get the two nvmes usable as local storage in PVE?
(This host is now also joined to a cluster - if this matters - the storage was not usable before joining the cluster also)

This is "less /etc/pve/storage.cfg"

dir: local
        path /var/lib/vz
        content iso,backup,vztmpl

zfspool: local-zfs
        pool rpool/data
        content images,rootdir
        sparse 1

root@pmx2:~# pvesm zfsscan
nvmes
rpool
rpool/ROOT
rpool/ROOT/pve-1
rpool/data

I feel like I am missing a step here.... Thanks for any help with this.

Well, yeah, adding

zfspool: local-nvmes-zfs
        pool nvmes
        content rootdir,images
        nodes pmx2
        sparse 1

to "/etc/pve/storage.cfg" made the storage appear. Is this all? Was a bit confused, misunderstood concepts of ZFS and GUI storage creation a bit.

To finally close this topic - is this correct to manually add this to "/etc/pve/storage.cfg" when creating the storage from the gui? Thanks.
