Hi everyone
I have split 1 GB drive in two one for Disk Images,Container and one for backups and everything.
The partition is 500G but PVE only sees 50 something GBs just as much as the other partition that was created with the installation on the system disk.
PVE version is 5.4-13
Here is the setup
dir: BackupsDir
path /backups
content snippets,iso,rootdir,images,vztmpl,backup
maxfiles 3
nodes proxmox
shared 0

Thanks in advance for the help.
 
This is probably during the fact the mount of the second partition is (whyever) missing.
You think it is pointing to the second partition, but in fact you are accessing the mountpath on the first partition.
Had a similar issue once (with a ZFS dataset though) and it turned out, that my dataset wasn't set to automount.

When the issue happens, check if your second partition is mounted and investigate the logs to see if and why it was unmounted
