First want to say thank you to this team, I was an ESXI user for a long time but the features and ability of Proxmox are amazing, Also I feel like I am learning Linux way more with this setup.

I have a 3 node cluster using a NAS for Shared storage, VM's and networking work amazing. I wanted to start using LXC containers but I am struggling with a weird error.

I create the CT fine, but it will not start, the first start prompts an error saying the disk cannot be found, but I do see it in the shared storage. If I resize the disk, it will start fine and work fine. If I shut it down it will not restart,

Host info:
CPU(s)

12 x AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor (1 Socket)
Kernel Version

Linux 5.13.19-1-pve #1 SMP PVE 5.13.19-3 (Tue, 23 Nov 2021 13:31:19 +0100)
PVE Manager Version

pve-manager/7.1-6/4e61e21c

below is the log info I could find, any help or direction to what I am doing wrong would be amazing

hi,

could you post:
* the full pveversion -v output (just in case)
* the container config pct config CTID
* your storage config cat /etc/pve/storage.cfg
* container debug log pct start CTID --debug

(please use [code][/code] tags when posting)

do you have any problems with your shared storage? how fast are the read/write speeds in general with VMs on that storage?
 
Shared Storage is NVME with 10GB networking on a separate network.

thanks. could you post the container configuration as well? :)

also, does it work if you:
* move the container disk to a local storage
or
* run pct fsck CTID

I edited the post above to include the config, I pasted one of them twice by accident, also the pct fsck did work, quite well actually.
 
could you test using NFS instead of CIFS?
