    New to Proxmox - Issues with ZFS & local-lvm

    Hello, I post this here just in case it helps anyone else. I am using ceph rbd to store the disk images for my virtual machines, and some of the virtual machines use lvm inside their own virtual disks. When I start such virtual machines, proxmox's lvm scans their volumes, and these volumes...
