Heya!

I've noticed that my Windows Server 2022 VM has disabled snapshots after adding a ~3.5TB disk to it.
Is there any way to exclude said disk from Snapshots so it'll enable that function again? The disk is located on a 4TB big disk, so Proxmox may detect it's not able to copy it and disables them, but there's non-critical data on that disk so it wouldn't matter if it's included in a Snapshot or not.

Thanks for your help already!
 
Hi,
if a snapshot is supported or not, does not depend on the image size, but on the image format and underlying storage. Unfortunately, it's not currently possible to exclude a disk for snapshots. While this enhancement request is about pass-through disks, you might want to add your use case to it.
