Ciao,
i'm almost done in creating a script to directly import a XenServer VM
storage to Proxmox (without exporting the XVA file, decompress,
convert and so on).

I just need to know how to create ad attach a ZFS volume to an
existing PVE VM, in bytes.
In example, my source disk is 4311744512 how can I create the same
exact zfs pool ?

"qm set" only allow a GB size and 4311744512/1024/1024/1024 result in
a 4GB image that is too small

You can pass a floating point number, i.e., in this case:
4311744512/1024/1024/1024 == 4.015625

The image will then be rounded up with the target storage blocksize, if
it does not matches it exact.

hope that helps!

Thomas
