I was on Proxmox 5.3 before, and I had decided to try and toss in my spare SSDs, a couple of 128GB Samsung 840 Pro's, and reinstall on those with 6.0
The server itself is a Dell R710 (2x 5670's) with an H200 in IT mode. 4x 2TB drives as my main zfs pool as my NAS, and then the aforementioned 2x 128GB ssd's.
Before, I had installed proxmox on a pair of 750GB regular 7200rpm drives. I wish I had remembered how I installed it because clearly something was different. I'm not too familiar with how proxmox works but I know I had a local-lvm that I'm fairly sure the containers existed on, and now I no longer have a "local-lvm" but instead a "local-zfs".
The problem I'm running into is that the containers _seem_ to be operating just fine, just as they did when they were on the rotational drives. But various cli tasks like apt update/upgrade are _extremely_ slow, and sometimes outright hang. I was trying to install Kibana on a fresh container and it outright froze midway through installing it, forcing me to reboot the container.
I run a website on these containers, plex, a Jira instance, they all seem to actually _run_ just fine, but doing anything in cli seems to break completely.
If I try to create an LVM, the dialog window says "No disks unused". I have a suspicion that I'll need to reinstall proxmox somehow, but I'm not sure what I should do differently if that's the solution.
