[SOLVED] remove hard disk from VM

[muekno]

Had added HD to wrong VM via Hardware in Web Console and removed it.
now the Disk is still shown in the storage.
IfI try to remove it from the storage, I get A message "Cannot remove ..."

What to do?
need help or hint

Is it listed as an unused disk in the vm hardware?

Please share exactly what you see and some information about the VM.

The VM is a Opentext OES server based on SUSE SLES and has one 30G system drive running fine.
@SteveITS yes and I could it remove, but unfortually I did it twise, I only saw one as unused and it is away now but there is still one seen in the storage and not as unused disk.

Thanks for answering.

Again. Please share what you see there and a picture of the VM's Hardware tab. There's too many unknown variables to give accurate and succinct advice.

Since the ID matches, qm rescan should add it back as unused disk in Hardware. You can then try to remove it from there again.
The full error message would be helpful. The task status (double click) at the bottom might have more information.
Are there existing snapshots that might reference it? I ran into this once where the removal only partially worked like in this case.
Check if it shows up here and how often

grep -sR "vm-115-disk" /etc/pve/qemu-server
