pfSense not enabling port

Yes... the VM is started via the data centre and that won't allow you to start it twice. You will need to clone it and give it new name and IP.
I'd prefer to have the VM Images on local mirror via Ceph, gives me speed and Ceph will make sure there is a copy on another node.
Would like someone else to chirp in here... confirm this works with Proxmox. know other Hypervisors allow this.

The guy talks about storage.Guess I need to think, do I use ZFS or Ceph.

... discovery...
if you've been following this thread, we did not assign a 172.16.40.0/24 address to the physical port of the Topton, the thinking it's primarily a passthrough for vlan40 onto the hosted guest VM's...
Forgetting that the pmox# itself will be mounting a NFS volume to be shared... thus it will itself need a source ip on that port... vmbr40, otherwise it does not know who it is...
Been the root cause of my NFS mount problems the last 3-4 days. The second I assigned 172.16.40.51 to the first node NFS stabilised and was working immediately on click... on the node.

ask...
other than the official proxmox forum which does not seem to have much activity, anyone aware of a active/responsive proxmox community...
otherwise wondering if we can get the admin's here to create a proxmox section ;)G

Yes that is my understanding as well, although I have not tried it. And I totally agree that using the local nvme's will give you way more speed.
I still suggest creating a PBS VM (Proxmox Backup Server) and perhaps map e.g. a disk on your TrueNAS for that. I've had a few instanses where I have wanted to "go back in time" and restore something from a few weeks back even. Typically because I messed up and didn't realize it until some time later.
