Hi,
Ok so basically I have this problem with the same workaround working: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/upgrade-to-pve6-dev-pve-data-device-start-timed-out.57320/
Thing is I'm not sure what the permanent fix is from the whole post, and in my context... This is a home lab and I'd like to solve this before the upgrade at work!
Here some output that should help:
* '/etc/pve/storage.cfg'
* '/etc/fstab'
* output of 'pvs -a'
* output of `vgs -a`
* output of `lvs -a`
* output of `lvdisplay`
So I did a fresh 6.1-3 install but did migrate much of the content of /etc/pve/ from my Proxmox 4.0 install so I suspect this is the cause of my troubles!
How do I solve this for good while keeping my content in /var/lib/vz accessible (a lot of VM disk are there)?
Thanks so much!
