Cannot process volume group local-lvm3

[TomNick]

Hi everybody, I am running 3 pve in a cluster. Pve3 needed a restart and after it, I am not able to start any VM anymore. Getting the following error:

Command failed with status code 5.
command '/sbin/vgscan --ignorelockingfailure --mknodes' failed: exit code 5
  Volume group "local-lvm3" not found
TASK ERROR: can't activate LV '/dev/local-lvm3/vm-106-disk-0':   Cannot process volume group local-lvm3

I tried to fix this by:

lvchange -an pve/data_tdata
lvchange -an pve/data_tmeta
lvchange -ay pve/data

without success. Anybody any idea what could be wrong? Thanks for some help.

Proxmox 7.3.6
Hardware specificaton for the VM enclosed

The configuration expects a volume group with name local-lvm3

  VG  #PV #LV #SN Attr   VSize    VFree
  pve   1   5   0 wz--n- <931.01g 15.99g

but doesn't seem like the volume group exists. On which physical device do you expect it to? Please check that one and the boot log for any errors.
