O.K , I will give a bit of backstory here to explain my situation here. Just did a fresh install of Proxmox VE 3.2 I have 1 2TB Drive used as the Local/OS storage.

I have 2 * 2TB HDD configured as a RAID 0 Stripe using mdadm, I then created LVM storage of of this storage, here is the output of vgdisplay

Code:
root@proxmox:~# vgdisplay

Using the proxmox web interface I added the storage: lvm.png

lvm2.png

Although when I try to create a VM I get this error:

lvm3.png

I'm sure I'm doing something drastically wrong here! I've been grinding over this for a while now, and not sure what I need to do to fix.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks.
 
I also have the same problem, I have not find the solution yet, I must use CT OpenVZ, which is quite limited.

I have one vm works well, but impossible to install another.:(
