Hi,
I need to create a local thin LVM for Proxmox server and the LVM should be 60TB.
In my tests when I create a 11.5 TB thin LVM and my chunk size is 64K I get a warning that the maximum LVM size can be something around 15TB and the recommended chunk size is 1MB.
When I try with 1 MB I get the warning message that with 1MB chunk size I will get performance issues with thin-lvm.
I run everything in CLI as I need automation for that.

p.s
Is there an Ansible module for creating LVMs for Proxmox hosts as I can't find one ?

Any suggestions please?
