    Windows Server Guest - Storage Pool

    Hi Everyone! I'm new in this world, and I'm currently learning Proxmox and Windows Server. Im trying to setup a storage pool in the Windows Server, but I'm not able to see disks which I added from the Proxmox. I added 3 disks (VirtIO) - 2gb in Proxmox. In Windows Disk Managment I set them...

    New install - working with directory storage

    I am decently new with Proxmox so forgive a potentially obvious question. I am looking to ensure my VMs are able to take advantage of snapshots. I understand that this is only possible on 'directory' storage. I have a 1TB SSD I am looking to use as both the boot volume for Proxmox and storage...

    Using external drives

    I have two external 4TB usb drives that I wanted to use as a storage pool. I installed PM 6.1 using the standard method with LVM layout. I see there is a way to do an install with ZFS, but I thought I would go with the default. On the other hand, I thought that I would create a zpool using the...
