I have a proxmox setup that is identical to my other proxmox machine. On this server though I have problems accessing the LVM and creating KVM in it.

I used pvcreate and vgcreate, and both commands finished without errors (COMPLETED). I even went to the web GUI and added the LVM share where it added it fine. However in the CLI, I do not see /dev/pve as I do on my other identical server where the KVM's file systems are stored. I am unable to create any KVM or migrate a KVM from my master node. I had tried deleting and recreating, but that did not work either...

Steps I had followed were

proxmox-ve:~# pvcreate /dev/sda4
Physical volume "/dev/sda4" successfully created

proxmox-ve:~# vgcreate pve /dev/sda4
Volume group "pve" successfully created

Create LVM share in web GUI "Storage name: pve", "Base storage: Existing volume groups", "Volume Group Name: pve"

When I went to look, I did not see a /dev/pve mount? I tried undoing the above steps and recreating, but still had no luck.


I am running the latest release, does anyone have any suggestions or possibly guide me? I would greatly appreciate it.
