I think (hope) this is fairly cut and dry, but wanted to get some professional opinions, lest I inadvertently corrupt my Proxmox installation. I currently have a Proxmox machine with three Sata drives in RAIDZ1 (storing VMs) and a single NVMe drive within a USB enclosure serving as the Proxmox OS drive. I would like to transfer these four drives (data intact) into a new build machine, and am hoping to simply boot up and resume operations as normal. I expect that I’ll need to give Proxmox some guidance if the NIC name changes, but is it reasonable to assume that Linux will automatically adjust to the other hardware changes without much drama? Concerning the ZFS pool (of which I know very little), am I correct in thinking that the pool is assembled on some sort of drive identifiers unrelated to motherboard hardware addresses? In other words, as long as the drives are recognized by the new system, the ZFS pool should be reassembled and seen in Proxmox as though nothing changed?
