HDD-Files in DRBD-Environment

[andrediekmann]

Good Moorning,

I have a question concerning harddisk files in an DRBD-Environment.
Normaly I could copy the qcow or row files from on proxmox host to another.
But if 2 host working in an drbd cluster I could not find those files.
What can I do, to copy a VM from a drbd cluster to a single proxmox host?
Thanks for your help.

Best regards
André

backup/restore.

use the --storage option of qmrestore, see 'man qmrestore'

Hi Andrè,
your VM-disks are on logical volumes. Play with lvm-commands to understand where are what.

pvdisplay
vgdisplay
lvdisplay
man lvm

the logical volumes are like an flexible device like an resizable harddisk.
