Local Storage on Multiple Machines

I have a two machine cluster.

Machine 1 = Master, is a Dell 2950 iii with all the storage and drives.
Machine 2 = Second, is a small Intel core i5 rig for a manual backup and testing.

They are joined to the same cluster and I can see both from the web interface. Most of the storage is mounted locally on Machine 1 and then shown to Proxmox using "Directory".

The only problem is that I want to be able to use a second storage drive (SSD) locally on Machine 2 but I cannot add it within the Web Interface. It is already mounted locally on the machine like Machine 1 (usual linux mount point) and I can manually create things while ssh'd into Machine 2. I just cannot get it to mount using the web interface as it assumes I want to mount it on Machine 1.

Is there a way to get it show up?

Many thanks,

Jonathan
 
Just restrict the storage to the node you want (storage option 'nodes') - whats the problem?
 
Sorry I didn't find that part when originally looked a mounting. Got it sorted now! Thanks.
