I had an issue where the local-lvm on a node was full.
I think it traced to an lvm-thin disk being the culprit.
I am only running Proxmox Backup Server in a VM on that node and didn't really care too much about losing anything on it (I had other backups).
I ended up getting impatient with trying various solutions to free up space and ended up using the Destroy option in the GUI.
I then added local-lvm back onto that node, however it is greyed out and not active.
Below is the output of some cli command that may help - I believe that the disk I want to use for local-lvm is sdb3
I really don't care too much whether I have to reformat that drive(s), or even reinstall the Proxmox Backup Server VM again, but just looking for the easiest solution. I'm a bit time poor at the moment and am not much of an advanced user.
Hoping someone can help out.
