Hi All,

What's the best way to give a VM access to a 15TB LVM Volume?

I tried a virtio passthrough; it loaded the disk into the VM but wouldn't list any subdirectories from the top level directory inside my plex server. Any ideas would be appreciated. I was thinking maybe an sshfs link would be the fastest, but not sure how I can keep it local to the private network?

I can mount it to my desktop with no issues bit somehow applications like plex have a problem reading the index, which has me stumped as to how to handle it.

Anyone had this issue before? would appreciate any pointers.
 
After thinking about this I decided it was a permissions issue with regards to plex. after adding the plex user to my user group it fixed itself.
