zfs iscsi help

[SpaceCowBoy]

Hello!

I currently have one proxmox node. It has my zfs storage pool running locally on it.
I would like to add a second node. But I want it to use and access the storage on the first node. In other words just adding compute power not wanting to manage two different storage pools.

is zfs over iscsi the right way to do this? and how do i go about setting it up. I see that option to add storage in the proxmox interface but how do i share out the storage?

thanks!

zfs over iscsi is menat when you have an external storage appliance, where you share the storage of your appliance to all your nodes

usually people an external storage server when they have a big amount of storage to share to compute nodes

you can also try manually to define a NFS server on your storage node1, and export a NFS file system to both nodes, although that's a bit clumsy
