Hope someone can help - I honestly know nothing about Proxmox - just followed a video to install and havent done an update for ages, Did an update today and get this error:
kvm: -drive if=pflash,unit=1,format=raw,id=drive-efidisk0,size=131072,file=/dev/pve/vm-100-disk-0: Could not open '/dev/pve/vm-100-disk-0': No such file or directory TASK ERROR: start failed: QEMU exited with code 1
Can anyone please help?

Hi,
please share the output of lvs and pveversion -v. Does running lvchange -ay pve/vm-100-disk-0 help? If the command complains about active pve/data_tmeta, or if the problem re-occurs after reboot, please have a look at this thread.

Thanks for advice
BTW this is Version 6.4-15.
I'm not aware of how to show the output.
Heres what I get after the command:
root@nuc:~# lvchange -ay pve/vm-100-disk-0
Child 23481 exited abnormally
Check of pool pve/data failed (status:-1). Manual repair required!

That sounds like a more fundamental issue with your thin pool. Please check if your disks are still (e.g. with smartctl) and if there are other errors in /var/log/syslog. Make sure you have working backups (and best to get somebody experienced with LVM) before attempting any kind of manual repair!
