[SOLVED] Mount second disk in vm

[foadk]

Hi.
I'm creating a VM with two disks. After running the commands, this is how they look like in conf file:

virtio0: local:1013255/vm-1013255-disk-0.qcow2,size=30G
virtio1: local:1013255/vm-1013255-disk-1.qcow2,size=200G

virtio0 works fine like always, but virtio1 needs to be mounted from inside the VM.
this is how i want it to be mounted:
/dev/vda1
is there any command or config to make the mount process automatic?

"mount" generally refers to a filesystem and a directory(target) off root filesystem. You mount /dev/vda1 to /mnt/disk1.
Is the disk-1, which is represented by virtio1 device, visible inside the VM as /dev/vda1 ?
If yes, do you want that device to be mounted on boot to some location?
If yes, take a look at "man fstab". Plug this into google "linux mount on boot".

Thanks for your answer. Yes, I want it to be mounted to a specific location. I was hopping that there would be a proxmox command that does the work using cloud init.

You can, of course, do it via cloud-init, but not via the limited subset exposed through PVE GUI/CLI.
You will need to use cicustom and a proper cloudinit file.
