Hello, I have proxmox 7.2.3 server. I try to restore a vm with 500 giga hard disk.
I got always this error:



Task viewer: VM 124 - Restore

OutputStatus

Stop
Formatting '/mnt/pve/StorageProxmox/images/124/vm-124-disk-0.qcow2', fmt=qcow2 cluster_size=65536 extended_l2=off preallocation=metadata compression_type=zlib size=536870912000 lazy_refcounts=off refcount_bits=16
error before or during data restore, some or all disks were not completely restored. VM 124 state is NOT cleaned up.
TASK ERROR: unable to create image: 'storage-StorageProxmox'-locked command timed out - aborting

Any solution to avoid this issue?
 
yeah - set preallocation to off for that storage (see 'man pvesm')
