Re-adding storage drives to a new proxmox installation

[Bishop27]

You are not very good at EXACTLY following instructions. You changed the names (capitalization etc. from what I told you).
Lets see if everything looks the way it should.
Please show the output for the following:

cat /etc/fstab
ls /mnt

Did you see my results before? it was not mounting.

I saw everything. However you don't respond with the information I request.
I have nothing from helping you - so if you want my help respond with the info I request. Maybe then I can help you.

My apologies, I'm sorry.

The non-mounting had nothing to do with the directory naming chosen.

Reboot your node (power off -power on) - then check above commands again.

ls /mnt/VM-STORAGE

Check output for:

ls /mnt/ISOIMAGES
ls /mnt/VM-STORAGE

root@Proxve01:~# ls /mnt

Good. That above data appears to be from your attached drives.
Now go into GUI & setup 2 Directory Storages, using the SAME name ID: you had used in your ORIGINAL Proxmox instance for each one.
Use the Directory: /mnt/ISOIMAGES & /mnt/VM-STORAGE for each one correctly.
Choose the required Content: as it was before.

Everything is there and I'm about to start restoring VM's. Thank you So MUCH for all your help. God Bless, I have learned much through all of this.

Good, seems like you are settled. Maybe tag prefix the thread-title with [SOLVED], (upper right hand corner under title).
