Remounting a USB storage device

[cheezburger]

I have created a storage called "removable" which was just a USB drive, but I cannot remember which USB port I had it plugged into originally on my server.

At the moment, the storage is shown as (?) because it probably isn't mounted correctly:



What steps do I need to take to remount it properly once I know I have it in the right USB slot?

As far as I am aware, USBs are not mounted on a default installation, you usually need some kind of tool to do that.

There are some threads on unix related forums on this topic, and a quick Google search reveals a tool a user created specifically for Proxmox.
I did not test these, but as far as I can tell from the threads, these should still work with modern Proxmox installations. You might have to recreate your storage though, depending on whether the mount point is configurable.
