Hi There,

Does anyone knows how to fix this, i created a VGS via CLI but can't see it in GUI?

root@giant:/# vgs
VG #PV #LV #SN Attr VSize VFree
ThickWorld 2 0 0 wz--n- 5.00t 5.00t <----------------------------------not showing in GUI????
ThinWorld 1 3 0 wz--n- 1.36t 124.00m
pve 1 3 0 wz--n- <111.25g <13.88g
 
Hi,
did you add the storage in PVE, with Datacenter > Storage > Add > LVM and select the volume group? Or do you mean that the volume group does not show up there?

Thanks Fabian, yes if adding via gui works fine but gui doesnt let to do group of multi pvs in one vgs, u can achieve this only with vgcreate on cli, unless i dont know gui way?
 
Yes, it's currently not possible to select multiple disks when creating a VG in the GUI. If you want, you can add a feature request on our bug tracker. In general, more complex storage setups need to be done via CLI and added to the PVE configuration afterwards.
