If you do a zfs list you’ll now see a dataset named something like vm100-data-disk0 and that the second virtual disk in your VM. Now you operate on the virtualdisk however you like, format it with EXT4 or something. It’s still a ZFS volume and Proxmox will be able to snapshot it, replicate it etc, or you could do it manually on the host. But as far as the VM is concerned, it’s a raw disk that you do normal disk stuff with.

You’ve made a virtual disk on the zfs. The vm will never see the zfs, that’s managed entirely by the host.
Yes you’ll want to make a normal partition inside that virtual disk.

Thanks for the clarity! I’ll give this a shot when I get back home.
