PVE will be probably installed at sda1,sda2,sda3 and sdb1,sdb2,sdb3 respectively and rpool will be probably ZFS mirror over the partitions sda3 and sdb3 after that you may create partitions sda4 and sdb4 (type Solaris /usr & Apple ZFS) with zpool mirror over it zpool create -f -o ashift=12 ctpool mirror /dev/sda4 /dev/sdb4 after installation you may dedicate the rest 2 disks for datastore e.g. zpool create -f -o ashift=12 datapool mirror /dev/sdc /dev/sdd finally you will declare your PVE storage and you may start to play ;-) hope it helps Nada On 2022-02-07 01:10, Tonči Stipičević wrote: > I'm planning to use SUPERMICRO 721 box (4 x 2T sata) as PBS > > So, if I create zfs10 raid as boot drive , I have no more disks left > for datastore, right ? > > BUT, is it possible to make directory on this / boot drive i.e. > /mnt/datastore   and attach it as datastore ?   Is that a way-to-go  > and is there any disadvantages against separate 2 x 240g ssd as boot > and 4 x 2T sata (zfs raid 10 ) for datastore? > > Actually I'ma having hard time finding 2 x 2,5" small  sata drives for > boot .... > >   Thank you very much in advance > > BR > > Tonci > > srdačan pozdrav / best regards > > Tonči Stipičević, dipl. ing. elektr. > direktor / manager > > SUMA Informatika d.o.o., Badalićeva 27, OIB 93926415263 > > Podrška / Upravljanje IT sustavima za male i srednje tvrtke > Small & Medium Business IT Support / Management > > mob: 091 1234003 > www.suma-informatika.hr > > > > _______________________________________________ > pve-user mailing list > pve-user@lists.proxmox.com > https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-user
