I have a problem with an external storage on Proxmox I added a USB drive storage to my proxmox a few months ago this way:
1) Connected USB drive to Proxmox machine and added as an LVM storage on /dev/sda:
2) Created a new 1000 GB virtual hard drive on it:
Everything was working fine.
3) Until one day, after a reboot, this external drive has become /dev/sdb:
4) It is still visible in Proxmox UI:
5) However it's not accessible from inside of the VM - it fails with Input/Output error
Any ideas how to fix this?
