Hi,
in multiple threads in this forum it is mentioned that for virtualizing TrueNAS on Proxmox (even if not recommended) the Qemu Guest Agent is required to allow the correct shutdown of the TrueNAS VM (as well as some more features).
For TrueNAS CORE we have some ressources for the Qemu Guest Agent here:
https://www.truenas.com/community/resources/qemu-guest-agent.167/
https://www.truenas.com/community/threads/qemu-guest-agent.91764/
(Is my assumption correct that the pre-build Qemu Guest Agent, available under the link above, is only for CORE (FreeBSD) and not for SCALE (Debian)?)
On another source (https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/install-qemu-guest-agent-on-truenas.83565/#post-375016) is mentioned:

TrueNAS SCALE has the qemu guest agent preinstalled
- Is this information correct?
- Does this mean, that a virtualized TrueNAS SCALE (on top of Proxmox) does not need any manual installation of the Qemu Guest Agent inside the virtualized TrueNAS SCALE VM?
- Or does it only mean, that TrueNAS SCALE brings the Qemu Guest Agent with it to provide it to guests running on SCALE?
- If the Qemu Guest Agent is delivered with SCALE to virtualize SCALE, does this mean that the virtualization of SCALE on KVM-based hypervisors is officially supported?
