Hi Team,

We have recently installed fresh proxmox ve8 on server as existing version crashed and it contain few VMs on separate local disk storage.
is there any process I can add back storage in new proxmox ve?
 
Hi harsalpatel,

Welcome to the forums!

You make existing storage known to PVE by adding a record in `/etc/pve/storage.cfg`. I'd make a copy of the file first, and then have a look at the existing records to add one of myself. This one I added to my own config:
lvmthin: mt_alledingen_pool thinpool mt_alledingen_pool vgname mt_alledingen content rootdir,images nodes microtweak

Good luck!
