Hi people

Is proxmox actively search all the storages and delete all the disk image files named destroyed VM's ID?
I had old image in NFS storage but live one was in the local disk. It was copied ages ago probably for some odd reason.

I destroyed VM, config was saying sata0: local:100/vm-100-disk-0.qcow2 but proxmox also delete nfs:100/vm-100-disk-0.qcow2 too.
Is that a weird behaviour or this is normal?

that is normal and expected

on pve, all disks with the correct naming scheme (vm-...) on configured storages belong to that vm, and will deleted/migrated/etc. together with the vm
