HI All,

Lets say I have a Node with the following config:

1x120GB SSD (Proxmox OS)
3x3TB SAS (LVM 1-3)

The LVM's are already configured and Proxmox can see them.
When i create a new VM/CT, i can chose the Local-LVM which is the space available on the SSD, which i do not want, there is only probably like 60GB of space left.

Can i exclude this or somehow edit the permissions so that the extra space on the SSD cant be used for CT/VM disks?

Thanks
Best Regards,

Foster Banks

you can disable the 'local-lvm' storage completely, then it does not show up in the tree and you cannot select it for images
