Probably the most interesting new feature in Proxmox 9 (Beta 1):

Finally we're able to create #Snapshots of VMs with shared block storage (such like #iSCSI, #FibreChannel & #NVMeoF) with LVM Thick without doing dirty workarounds. Well done Proxmox (& Alex!).

Recently, I created a plugin (including PVE UI integration) for #NetApp based storages to create storage side snapshots.

PS: #ProxLB also already supports PVE9!

Dev just messaged me, alarmed: a WordPress plugin's tech support logged into his site and broke everything! 😱
But Dev is sharp, and even at 22:10, he remembered his server runs FreeBSD and ZFS. With snapshots of his site and database every 15 minutes, we rolled back to the 20:00 snapshot, and his site was back up in a flash!

Thank you, FreeBSD! Thank you, ZFS!
