Maximal disk allocation

[elli]

I am using proxmox to manage my virtual machines. When I create a new VM, I have to allocate some space on the SSD.

For instance, I have a 240GB ssd and there is 1 VM using 120GB.
Is there a way proxmox can automatically alert me if i try to setup a new 240GB VM on the same disk ?

Setup your Storages ( https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#chapter_storage) to not use Thin provisioning ( https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#_thin_provisioning ). For some storage types, this only affects new virtual disks.
