Hi.

So I have a new hard drive that is mounted as a directory on PVE 6.4 - it's working OK.

I am using MergerFS to mount the disk to /mnt/disk3 - I have other disks I am doing the same to - and mounting under /mnt/storage.

For some reason this third disk (1 of 3) is failing to mount to /mnt/disk3 - as far I know everything has been done the same way.

After removing the /mnt/disk3 from the mergerfs line (at bottom) all the disks are mounted (including the failed one, as a PVE mounted directory).



Update: my bad.
The PVE directory mount was using a different identifier for the disk, and I was using a different one from what it was using.
All working now.
