This guide is for homelab admins who understand IPv4s well but find setting up IPv6 hard or annoying because things work differently. In some ways, managing an IPv6 network can be simpler than IPv4, one just needs to learn some new concepts and discard some old ones.
Let’s begin.
First of all, there are some concepts that one must unlearn from ipv4:

This is me documenting my journey moving my Homelab from a Qnap NAS and a Single host Proxmox server to a Hyper-converged multi-node Proxmox Cluster.
The reason to document it here is twofold:
It's written 'first to scratch my own itch' but hopefully it benefits others too, or even better, that others improve upon my implementations. Feel free to comment or share improvements and insights!

The TrueNAS installer doesn't have a way to use anything less than the full device. This is usually a waste of resources when installing to a modern NVMe which is usually several hundred of GB. TrueNAS SCALE will use only a few GB for its system files so installing to a 16GB partition would be helpful.
The easiest way to solve this is to modify the installer script before starting the installation process.
