Hi,

during a disk movement from a ceph to a zfs storage ( 10 TB disk, was already moved by 20% ) the thin provisioning checkbox was activated for the zfs storage.

The result was, that the task of the disk movement vanished. And i mean vanished like completely removed from the proxmox UI overview.

The task is actually still running as you can see it in the linux process tree:

Code:
 144998 ?        Ss     1:56 task UPID:n1:00023666:0000F854:63187532:qmmove:111:root@pam:


and its still doing its job ( ZFS storage becomes populated with data ).

But for the UI view this task is not existing anymore. Its also not in the task history section.

Hi,

ok after the process ended, the new storage appears also in the gui/config.

So seems even the task vanished, the job gets done successfully.

In the end just a cosmetic problem.
