Proxmox is a hypervisor / container platform and also comes with first class ZFS support, but due to the focus on VMs and containers it is only partially suitable as a general purpose platform.įreeNAS, now TrueNAS core is a NAS / storage platform and built as an appliance. But it can be installed on all other major Linux distributions from their official package repos, which means that it is also "kind of" officially supported there. Ubuntu is, as far as I know, the only general purpose OS with a big company in the background, which has first class support for ZFS and has even integrated it into the installer. So to say an elgant packed rant about the fact that none of the known operating systems has implemented ZFS in a way that meets your high standards -) But I will try to answer your question anyways. Sorry, but for me your question sounds rather like it is purely of a rhetorical nature.

So I guess this might makes it easier to understand why I'm talking about the best OS for ZFS, meaning that ZFS is the "only" software I really need the OS to excels at, and be reliable. And my current server also runs Kodi but I plan to separate them. Of course there will be samba, ssh, and some basic stuffs. Is moving to FreeNAS a good choice? What are the other options if any?Įdit: I feel like I left out a very important information-the server is serving ZFS alone. in having a core in FreeBSD and a Linux version now. they release the bug with 21.10 knowingly.) it is not an upstream bug, so someone at Ubuntu messed up 2.
Also the recent bug introduced in 21.10 does not give me much confident either (that 1. But I don't like its slow schedule in picking up latest OpenZFS, e.g. Ubuntu seems to be the only Linux distro with a company behind it supporting OpenZFS officially. I'm currently using Ubuntu and tried FreeNAS in the past.
Please correct me if this mentality is wrong. Knowing that some companies support using OpenZFS officially gives me peace of mind, because at least they have something to lose too if it gets wrong. When I say "support", I mean it is a product that a certain company supports the use of OpenZFS. I have used ArchLinux with OpenZFS in the past, but updating packages has been troublesome occasionally. The current server I use ZFS can run Linux/FreeBSD. Say zstd compression, better encryption SIMD vectorization after the Linux kernel drama situation, etc. Historically when I chased newer OpenZFS version, it was because of the features that's important to me. I know this is subjective, so may be narrow down a bit by my criteria: I want a supported OpenZFS setup while using relatively new OpenZFS version.
