Good day All,
Please bear with me, I am a newbie to proxmox. Recently we had proxmox running with various containers and VMs, however, the physical server's motherboard was damaged and we had to move hard disks to a different server. After the move, I am having issues with starting this VMS because of the missing logical volume group. Please guide me through on how to resolve this. The error message I am getting when starting one VM is as follows and all the other details are below as well
"
Command failed with status code 5.
command '/sbin/vgscan --ignorelockingfailure --mknodes' failed: exit code 5
TASK ERROR: no such logical volume VD1/VD1"
