Hi,


I would like to mount my disc in a different place. How can I delete first FS and mount my disc in a different place?

proxmox-backup-manager disk fs list
┌──────────────────────────┬────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┬────────────┬──────────┐
│ path │ device │ filesystem │ options │
╞══════════════════════════╪════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╪════════════╪══════════╡
│ /mnt/datastore/DataStore │ /dev/disk/by-uuid/9b0775a6-211f-4c00-add3-7fb3c6c92ced │ xfs │ defaults │
└──────────────────────────┴────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┴────────────┴──────────┘
it does not exist and i want to delete it

ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/
9162-5575 a7162f2e-ad7c-42a6-9847-8a7d8f283a93 edf9a33b-61df-45d8-a7bd-8c4319757d91

When running the command you can only see :

proxmox-backup-manager disk fs
create list

proxmox-backup-manager disk list

Do I have to use /etc/fstab because it does not work over GUI or what?

datastorage blockdevice is mounted:
ls /etc/systemd/system/*.mount

then maybe
Code:
systemd-remount-fs.service

then u can mount your disk over fstab and in the gui u can add datastore to the mount path

Hi,

Because systemd-remount-fs.service is an early boot service that applies mount options listed in fstab, or gathered from the partition table to the root file system, the /usr/ file system, and the kernel API file systems, and I have no idea how Proxmox is reacted on it, I have considered it dangerous to touch it. That's why I just deleted Mount and Dev File.

rm -f /etc/systemd/system/mnt-datastore-DataStore.mount

It is probably a bug that GUI does not delete the given files and Proxmox thinks that it still exists.

thanks for the tip

Many greetings
