Hello,

i have a 2 Node Proxmox Cluster running. I use drbd9 as storage. DRBD9 uses /dev/sdb (Raid10 with 4 Disks).
Now i would like to add another disk ( /dev/sdc ) with fast SSDs.

How can i create a 2nd storage Pool so that i can choose from the GUI where i want to create that VM?

I read about drbdthinpool, drbdpool, /etc/pve/storage.cfg, etc.. but i cant figure out how to set up a 2nd drbd storage pool :-/

Thanks,
Mario
