I am new to proxmox. I have a machine with 800 GB SSD and 2 X 3.0 TB SAAS HArd drives. I installed proxmox VE on SSD and wanted to use a 3.0 TB for VMs ad Containers and other 3.0 TB for backup.

Now I do not know how can I make my 3 TB drive as LVM / LVM-thin. I can mount is as a diretory by formating it as EXT4 partition.

But I want to make a LVM-thin partition named as Data. So I can put all my VMs and Containers on it.

Please help by giving step by step commands.
