expanding storage

[admsjas]

i need some help getting a dell 2950 setup the way i want. first off it has two 146GB drives setup in RAID 1 for the proxmox os and 4 450GB drives in RAID 1 that I want to use as a target for nextcloud storage. when i install proxmox it sets up on the 146GB drives just fine but the 450GB array isn't available for use, i can see it but it's not available. i followed this guide:

https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Extending_Local_Container_Storage

which mostly worked up until the end, i wasn't able to run the resize command successfully. i know this is an older guide meant for a different implementation of LVM but it seemed to work as far as i can tell. is there a more up to date guide for expanding storage or am i going about this wrong?

TIA

If the array is not showing as storage your need to add the array as a storage location.

This can be done from the data centre tab, you will however need to make sure the storage is first formatted and made available in however format you wish to use.
