I assume no one understand your question.
 
I'm looking for help with the error message "timed out waiting for device dev-ssdvol-vmstore.device and the subsequent 'depend' errors.

If I log into maintenance mode, the pvs / lvs / vgs all display the ssdvol and vmstore along with the volumes for virtual disks on the ssdvol.

How do I troubleshoot this problem

thanks
Bob

What is the output?

Are you mounting the lv to /vmstore?

I am trying to mount the lv to /vmstore

Code:
fstab
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
/dev/pve/root / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/pve/swap none swap sw 0 0
/dev/ssdvol/vmstore /vmstore ext4 relatime,barrier=0,errors=remount-ro 0 1
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0

commenting out the vmstore mount in fstab allows proxmox to boot fully.

trying to mount manually

Code:
root@metro1:~# mount /dev/ssdvol/vmstore /vmstore
mount: special device /dev/ssdvol/vmstore does not exist
root@metro1:~#

Code:
#pvs

vmstore is available as storage in proxmox, so I don't need to mount to /vmstore?
 
The LVs are mapped to /dev/mapper/vmstore (or similar). You need to change the path if you want to mount it. PVE will mount the directory storage automatically if it is configured, LVM storage works differently.
