I have an LVM volume group with virtual machines images. Can I create LVM thin pool in the same volume group and add it as a separate storage? Is it safe?
 
Is this a local VG used by a single Proxmox VE node, or is it shared between multiple nodes?

If it is a local VG used by a single node and has sufficient unallocated space, creating an LVM-thin pool in the same VG as the existing standard LVM LVs may be an option.
