Volume group output seems to suggest i've got no extents available. So not sure there is much I can do: --- Volume group --- VG Name lvm-thinpool-001 System ID Format lvm2 Metadata Areas 1 Metadata Sequence No 192 VG Access...

I've had a proxmox instance running for a while and one of the LVM ThinPool volumes is rather large, at just under 20TB. Things had been going just fine but recently i've hit some issues and I think the issue is because i've managed to fully consume the metadata allocation for the volume. An...

Never mind - I figured it out. Firstly resize the volume using the command: pvresize /dev/[volumeid] Then resize the thin pool like this: lvm lvresize lvm-thinpool-001/lvm-thinpool-001 --size +[IncrementAmount] I've now got a single thin pool of just over 20TB which I can carve disks from. Pete

I've managed to progress this a bit further now. I've now got the free space showing up in the Volume Group: root@proxmox:~# pvscan PV /dev/sdc VG lvm-thinpool-002 lvm2 [<6.00 TiB / 2.00 TiB free] PV /dev/sdb3 VG pve lvm2 [372.05 GiB / 16.00 GiB free] PV /dev/sda...

Hi, I'm experimenting with some different disk configurations at the moment and as part of that i've been resizing some of the logical volumes at the hardware level on my Proxmox Server. I thought i'd removed the Thin Pool Volume prior to making the changes but it appears that wasn't the case...

Thanks :-) That is how I have configured the disks. I wasn't sure what all of the different storage types were, so thanks for confirming that I should use LVM-Thin. I presume the -Thin part means they are thin provisioned so they only take up space once you start to fill them with data? The...

Hi there, I've been gifted an old DL380 G9 by my employer. It was previously part of a storage setup but they migrated to a flash-based IBM setup last year which meant this was surplus to requirements. It's a pretty powerful box with a couple of quad-core Xeon CPU's installed, 128GB of RAM...

Hi, I installed Proxmox yesterday and have managed to get three seperate VM's running without issue. However, today I added another HDD to one of the VM's and when I came to restart it I get the following error: kvm: combined size of system firmware exceeds 8388608 bytes The VM then fails to...
