Compared to what? Of course not local ZFS, because everything applies also to local ZFS. TRIM support is the only point I understand in comparison to "ordinary" iSCSI backed on "fat" files. I thought, that ZFS-over-iSCSI is superior to iSCSI because of the ZFS features, therefore ZFS-over-NFS has the same ZFS features, but as a file storage for container. No ordinary NFS has support for snapshots or quota directed by PVE, so this would be a real benefit. Also, you have a clusterwide-shared ZFS for KVM and LXC. In my opinion: it's the dream, isn't it? _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@pve.proxmox.com https://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
