Hey Folks,

I got some serious problem after configurating my Proxmox Server. After several reboots i got following error message (broken down to the important stuff):


root@alec:/dev/pve# qm start 100
kvm: -drive file=/dev/pve/vm-100-disk-1,if=none,id=drive-sata0,format=raw,cache=none,aio=native,detect-zeroes=on: Could not open '/dev/pve/vm-100-disk-1': No such file or directory


After that message I searched the forum and Google. I did find stuff so i tried to fix things myself but even then I did not accomplish anything but frustration.

So what i did tried was repairing the pve/data, pve/vm-100... and those others.
But everytime I try to --repair anything I'm getting Manual repair required ! Well I would like to repair manualy but I dont know how! Im thankful for any help I can get.



Here's some of the output i collected for you, maybe you guy's got an idea:

Could there be a corrupted file system on one of my harddrives because of the bad checksum ? I guess im running a e2fsck.

Case can be closed. Got serious issues with corrupt filesystem and it couldn't be repaired. I started from scratch. Now it works. Remember to first configure all of your proxmox and go then to the VM's ffs.
