ok, so I take it everyone is happy with status quo...

Hi all, I’m working on reorganizing storage on a Proxmox VE 9.1.2 system with multiple HDDs, SSDs, NVMe devices, and a mix of SATA + LSI HBA-connected disks. While doing this I noticed something that has been a recurring challenge: Proxmox splits storage information across three separate views...

And back again

For me as new to Proxmox, well kinda, a more relevant question is why is not SMB one of the available share options out of the box? No one uses Windows?

Late to the party but +1 Kudos for getting it done.

Actually getting back to Proxmox to test out some stuff

I swear, I tried...have this on and off always... then suddenly it just pops in. Damn browsers... all good now it seems. Thanks for your patience guys...

Nope, from the screenie above now I have only the *BNX* ports available and I tried a different one during setup and it seems not working.... getting This page isn’t working right now 192.168.1.222 didn’t send any data. ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

Fibre channel ports available, and an additional fibre channel card was in the server, now removed. That should bring down those ports to max 2 I think... testing again later

Ok, I will review that card, I am guessing I should select one of the be2net entries from the list, there are 3 NIC ports in the rear of the chassi , one is dedicated for ILO, and all are plugged in. Will try to install again after that. I find it odd it got an IP, suggesting network...

ah well, reinstalling the lot... no biggie... but this seems to be a bit more of micromanagement than esxi ...

Managed to fix that described above. Still not being able to remove lvmroot as described first,

and now the disk view gives me: command '/sbin/lvs -S 'lv_name=~^osd-' -o devices,lv_name,lv_tags --noheadings --readonly --separator ';'' failed: exit code 5 (500) I don't get it, the system has been up an hour and I already broke it.

Got a spare drive for my Proxmox setup so I wanted to add that as additional (backup) storage in lvmthin, but added it to lvm instead by mistake. It has not been GPT initialized, but now I fail to remove it. trying to delete a volume group in LVM called lvmroot on /dev/sdb/
