It is not good for the kernel and it’s team to suddenly have to kowtow to Usamerican politics.

I do it the other way round: proxmox leaves it’s hands away from the zpool. The 5 disks are passed through to a vm, everything ZFS starts there, and it offers the samba shares.

My directive is that the bare metal proxmox shall not offer any services to the world outside, only VM’s may do that.

that could make it even worse, bc such a person has no motive to explore and research anything.

One person alone on a planet is quite busy with feeding himself and all personal needs.

Not enough time for doing science.
