Hey,

Im running proxmox on a pretty good node where I want ZFS and my VMs to be local.
It's a 128gb ram 6core E5 host.

ZFS is installed successfully and /storage/ is mounted as ZFS.
I added the ZFS storage as a directory in Proxmox GUI but the problem with this is that all my VMs are in the one and only ZFS dataset.

I need to be able to make 1 zfs dataset/container. Is this possible?
 
I don't remember if proxmox will allow subdirectories in such a local datastore. If they do, just create (via cli) a dataset inside the top-level 'storage' one, then create each KVM in the sub-dataset. If this is not allowed, I think you're stuck with creating N different storage directories, one per dataset :(
