OMV(LXC) and mount point for sharing

[stefluik]

I just installed a proxmox system and an LXC with debian and OMV(openmediavault).
On the host with proxmox I imported an existing data zfs pool.
And I mapped this to the container.
Both privileged and unprivileged tested. In privileged mode I see the files mounted in directory /srv/data also with root rights.
OMV did not see it for sharing it. I tried to mount an existing filesystem. Nothing listed.
How can I make them existing for OMV?

Running OMV as lxc is not supported: https://forum.openmediavault.org/in...ccess-additional-drives-via-proxmox-with-lxc/

For using a lxc as a nas something like https://github.com/bashclub/zamba-lxc-toolbox or the turnkeylinux-fileserver is more suited.

Many thanks for the reply. This is not the case.
I want to test omv in a LXC. This has many other reasons, in my opinion.
Many thanks for the links to other possibilities, I looked in it and I will also test them. For now, its no way.
The question is, does anyone else tried to use an omv with a directory as mount point for sharing data to smb, ftp, ...?
Thanks for answering my question

For testing omv just create a vm with virtual disc's. For a production setup install omv baremetal instead of ProxmoxVE or as a vm with a passed-through hba storage controller.
For using a host directory inside a container you can use bind mounts:
