Hi,

i build a dedicated pbs backup server with following config:
-1x ssd for os
-4x8tb sata disk (zfs Raid 10)
-At the moment i use version 1.2 because i use pve 6.4

There is one datastore on the Server. So i can use it now.

But i want to have a second datastore on the same server for some seperate rotation an sync jobs.

How create a second datastore on the same zfs pool as the first datastore?

I think PBS is storing all stuff on file level. So I would create two datasets (zfs create yourpool/yourdataset), mount them and use each mountpoint as a datastore. Each datset is its own filesystem so its easy to config and monitor both datstores individually.
