The server OS drive seems to be inaccessible after a power failure. We're going to replace the OS drive and installed a new Proxmox environment to the latest version. Is there a way where i can recreate the VMs?

There is a dedicated storage for virtual disks (so not stored on the failed system disk)? Did you create a backup of your "/etc/pve/qemu-server" folder on your OS disks root filesystem? Or is that PVE server part of a cluster? Or do you have some VZDump/PBS backups of those VMs? Because the VMs config files were stored on the failed OS disk and you would need a backup of them.

Sorry for the delayed response,

There is a dedicated storage for virtual disks (so not stored on the failed system disk)? - Yes, VMs are not stored on failed system disk.

Did you create a backup of your "/etc/pve/qemu-server" folder on your OS disks root filesystem? - No

Or is that PVE server part of a cluster? - Yes

Or do you have some VZDump/PBS backups of those VMs? - LZO backup available in NFS storage, however i dont think its of use, b'coz of old backup copies.

Forgot to update you on this, the person who helped me configure once said about DRBD & I'm not too sure if that has been configured or not.
