Hi All,

I use local storage for some intensive VMs, since I don't have a robust enough storage system yet. I currently just installed proxmox on a new-to-me Dell R620. I am using 146GB drives in a RAID1 and the installer detected them as such. But now that i've joined this machine to my cluster it looks like only around 35GB are available. I poked around in here and found a couple commands to run. Not sure what they mean or how to reconfigure it to use all the space, but here are the outputs:

root@dell:~# pvs
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/sda3 pve lvm2 a-- 136.00g 15.84g
root@dell:~# vgs
VG #PV #LV #SN Attr VSize VFree
pve 1 3 0 wz--n- 136.00g 15.84g
root@dell:~# lvs
LV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Meta% Move Log Cpy%Sync Convert
data pve twi-a-tz-- 78.00g 0.00 0.43
root pve -wi-ao---- 34.00g
swap pve -wi-ao---- 8.00g

Help!! Thanks!!
 
Here is the size that I'm seeing within the Proxmox GUI. Before i had the dell node added to the cluster i was able to see an LVM-Thin storage on it which seemed to have the remaining size on it. But now that is not visible.

when you join a cluster, you lose your storage configuration (it is cluster-wide). just re-add your lvm-thin storage (limited to the node(s) that actually have it), it is possible from the GUI.
 
Ah, i was able to figure it out. I reformatted to ext3, do you know why Proxmox by default doesn't use the entire disk for local storage?
