[SOLVED] ISO Storage

[StephenW]

Hi

Not sure if this an be done?
We have a lot of ISO's over 5TB, they are sorted into folder in a NFS share,
however with Proxmox PVE it does not seem to recognise or list folder in the NFS share,
do we have to move all the ISO's to the NFS share root, or is there a way to get
Proxmox PVE to read the folders?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @StephenW ,

Currently, the ISOs have to be in root of the template/iso. The easiest way to accommodate this is to symlink the files. For example, if you have:
/mnt/iso/windows
/mnt/iso/linux

Create: /mnt/iso/template. Or /mnt/iso/pve/template/iso - this way you can point PVE to /mnt/iso/pve and not pollute your root structure.
Then symlink:
/mnt/pve/template/iso/linux.iso ->> .../../../linux/some.iso


Cheers

Hi

Did not think of symlink.

Many thanks.
