Hello!
I want to know what is better between these two options, before I do something and regret later.
Let's say that I have Proxmox installed on SSD that is attached to the motherboard and also have other SSDs reserved for my local-zfs space. Apart from those drives, I have attached PCIe HBA card with plugged one SSD and two HDDs, with whole HBA being passed through for the virtualized TrueNAS.
Now, should I install TrueNAS OS onto local-zfs, or onto SSD attached to HBA? I saw only examples where people install OS onto virtual disk created on local storage, but would this lead to "ZFS on top of ZFS" problems? Should it be better to install TrueNAS OS onto dedicated SSD drive attached to HBA and that way have all disks that TrueNAS sees non-virtualized and fully separated from Proxmox? Obviously, HDDs will be used in TrueNAS for data zfs pool (mirror).
Let me know if I misundertand something.
Thank you.
