ZFS is an excellent file system, I used it from OMV5 until OMV6 now. The volume is almost full, must expand the disk pool by adding an additional hard drive for RAIDZ1. However, ZFS doesn't support adding a single disk, have to rebuild the pool, recreate file system, shares .................... I hate ZFS now!
A pain with ZFS

Hat den Titel des Themas von „A big pain for ZFS“ zu „A pain with ZFS“ geändert. -
this limitation is widely show in internet, and is the reason because you must think a lot why you need speed, vs redundancy vs increase facility.
PD: if you start with a RaidZ ( not a raidZ1), you have a bunch of disk, and you can easy add more disk , one by one, this is a not redundant sollution but works for me because I have 2 sites, my original files on PC and my backup on my ZFS NAS, If I lose one , I can recover using the other, and can grow easy.

Going to Raid5 + Ext4, ZFS expansion feature could be available in OMV next year.
