[SOLVED] VM disks remain on node storage even after being moved/deleted

[BEElieve]

After this forum could already greatly help me with a cluster issue, i now have more of a question than an issue.

Ive recently tried to improve my cluster a little and one of the things i did was moving all vms to a shared storage, to make migrations way faster, which works great.

Now as i understand it all "VM Disks" should be gone from my nodes local storages, but a few remain (far from all though).
I dont really know where theyre coming from. Ive deleted all unused hard disks from the VMs after i made sure they still worked after moving to the shared storage.

One of the "VM Disks" isnt even on the node where the local VM Disk is stored.

Can i delete those without issue or do they serve some purpose i dont see?

If you're sure that you have a Valid Backup for the VMs, you can safely remove it. However, I would first check of all VM images using qm rescan, see man qm for more information, and I also would double-check of the VM configuration in order to see if the VM uses disk on a local storage.

Thanks.
qm rescan let them show up as unused storage again. After double and triple checking everything i removed them and everything still works.
