I shutdown my working proxmox server and installed a new NVME drive in an empty slot. Now, when I boot I have these new issues:
1) After hanging on "initializing ramdisk" for a few minutes (as it always did), it now shows some extra complaints about

Code:
Timed out waiting for the udev queue being empty.
Found volume group "pve" ...
Found volume group "drive2" ...

Activation of logical volume drive2/drive2 is prohibited while logical volume drive2/drive2_tmeta is active
Activation of logical volume drive2/vm-100-disk-0 is prohibited while logical volume drive2/drive2_tmeta is active
Activation of logical volume drive2/vm-101-disk-0 is prohibited while logical volume drive2/drive2_tmeta is active
0 logical volume(s) in volume group "drive2", now active...

2) Once it does boot in, there is no ethernet connection and so I cannot use the webgui
 
Update:
For some reason, installing an NVME drive made my network device change. It used to be enp8s0 before, and became enp9s0 when I installed the nvme, and so I had to modify my networking interfaces file. That solved the no-internet issue.
The other issues were solved with the
lvchange -an drive2/drive2_tdata
lvchange -an drive2/drive2_tmeta
lvchange -an drive2/drive2
lvchange -ay drive2/drive2

thin_check_options = [ "-q", "--skip-mappings" ]
in your /etc/lvm/lvm.conf and running update-initramfs -u afterwards.
reboot
