Hello! I have an issue with adding the LVM Thin Storage to my Proxmox VE.
I have created an LVM disk from the free space on my HDD, and then converted it to LVM Thin. (Using this instruction).
VG name: pve, pool name is data
So, what I have now:
So, my new added thin pool is available. I can add it through the Proxmox GUI, and it is available as storage on my node. I can even see the size of the storage through the GUI.
But the problem is I can not upload any file to this storage or make a snapshot. What I am doing wrong? All the buttons in GUI, like "Upload" are inactive.
