why you did not install/enable the samba service on the debian container you just installed? if you use such a machine for just samba it would be a waste to use docker, or I am missing something?

Proxmox could be the best of them all if it had builtin SMB/NFS sharing, UPS shutdown, SNMP, one click/file config backup and restore and acreens for other basic configs. Basically, all the festures of Truenas Scale.

I have a similar set-up but have samba installed directly and use a priviledged container with my main HDD pool mounted in the container (I know this is less secure, but I only use on my home network with only a couple of known users and have the network behind an Opnsense firewall) . I find I can then share files more easily between VM and CTs without having to map UID's/GID's. Using the Samba Docker is interesting, and I'll give it a try.

Dude! I JUST did this - I'm literally copying my 15TB of junk over onto the new 36TB (24TB) ZFS zraid6 pool while typing this - shows "More than 1 day" left...personally I ended up creating a samba share inside of proxmox itself but then mapped it to an Ubuntu VM on that server which then also just shared it back out...its just easier than changing over allllllll of the stuff in my homelab that needs data to pull from the proxmox box directly since I have a couple dozen VMs....anyways keep up the great content!

Did you setup virtual network for vms to attach directly to your samba server for faster access on local vm to server communication? That would be a good video. I stumbled across this again and I noticed that you created a container just to host a docker just so you can host a samba server. Couldn't you have just created a samba server in the container instead of setting up docker and a samba server in the docker?

@Novaspirit Tech or anyone else with a solution, could you please help with the following error: I went through this video but the samba share isn't the zfs pool but just a subvol within that zfs pool. However, from the subsequent videos, deluge and others are able to only access the rest of the zfs pool and not the subvol. How do I ensure that either the samba share workds on the entire zfs pool or that deluge is able to access the subvol that samba is sharing?

have you tried the cockpit on proxmox with --no-install-recommends? i feel like its a litte easier on resource management wise instead of dealing with the sub system. 45drive's houston has zfs module works with cockpit as well as a smb/nfs ( file-sharing and identities ) i also like their navigator

@@danieleinfante3930 yup, but i believe the normal apt install cockpit breaks proxmox networking, at least it did 6mo ago. if you apt install cockpit --no-install-recommends it doesnt bork pve, if im going this route, i usually use it for better ZFS management than default pve. right now i have disks, zfs, identities, file-sharing, and navigator set up on one of my nodes acting like a little NAS

if you are limited on resources - mainly RAM - you can fine tune ZFS otherwise Proxmox will use 50% of your RAM just to support ZFS

@execration_texts 4 ай бұрын

Yes, proxmox will default to using up to 50% of the system memory for ZFS caching. However, this memory is freed if needed for other processes, whether that be by the Proxmox or its guests. Unused memory is wasted memory.

you need to install and configure samba-vfs objects, in this case since we are using dperson docker for samba it's enabled, once you delete a file it will create a hidden folder called .deleted containing your deleted files

Very cool! Two things: 1) Does/can the Proxmox host see what the container sees in terms of the data/content that's in the share folder? 2) Are you able to share this folder WITHOUT using the network stack? (i.e. other VMs and containers that are running on the same host do NOT need to go through the network stack to be able to get access to the data?
