I have converted some machine from Virtualbox.
All is working but I have a machine 120 that use ony local-lvm.vm-102-disk-0
Ther aren't unused disks for this machine.

But into VM Disks i see:
vm-102-disk-0
vm-102-disk-1 (not used)

Same problem with other machine.

Cannot be removed because 'Unable to remove disk image, a guest with VMID '102' exists!'
In guest unused devices aren't presen, howto remove it?

Same situation is for other machine all use disk-0 only 103 use disk-3
 
For vm102 - only disk-0 is in the configuration of the VM as you see from the config output.

You have two options:
a) delete the disk directly: pvesm free local-lvm:vm-102-disk-1
b) add disk to configuration and then delete it: "qm rescan" should add disk to config as "unused0", you can then use GUI to delete it.
