Hi,
I wonder if its safe to configure different dir for root and private in /etc/vz/conf? I have 2 drives and one where all vz containers is small (80Gb). I have second which is 660Gb and I would make use of it. Additionally I would like to fully support build proxmox backup functionality.
Ive tried 'mount --bind' command and it works but from what Ive read on forum, backup skip mounted directory so I would have to backup it in separate way, where I would like to keep things simple ;)

Ideally it would be great if we could choose between 2 disks during creation of vm so some VM would reside on disk1 and some reside on disk2.:)

Kind regards,
Piotr
