Hello,
during the OS installation I left Proxmox to take the entire size of the disk, so that my current disk configuration is this one:
I'd like to create a new partition that I will use for backup files (I already have backup on externa NAS and in Cloud, but I'd like a copy of backups also local to expedite backup/restore process during configurations). This partition should be around 200GB and be mounted from the pve Node, so that I configure it as target for backup process.
I'm not sure if it is possible at all or it can be made from the web interface. I tried the Storage section but I didn't found
Do I need to manually resize the partition
or is there a more managed way.
In any case, if you explain how to do that without breaking the partitions map.
Thank you
