VM - Resize Disk - BUG?

Hello everyone,

I have a problem when resizing a disk of a VM
Setup:
1 Proxmox (8.2.7) where only one vm is running (proxmox-backup-server)
The VM has 3 disks mounted... disk-1 is the storage for the backup server (datastore)

I have added more disk space via the gui because the datastore is slowly filling up (Disk Action -> Resize -> 5000) and now I have a strange problem:


syslog:
Code:
2024-11-04T09:17:15.694461+01:00 proxmoxsm39 pvedaemon[1773]: <root@pam> starting task UPID:proxmoxsm(...)B:resize:21212:root@pam:
2024-11-04T09:17:15.724420+01:00 proxmoxsm39 pvedaemon[3861830]: <root@pam> update VM 21212: resize --disk scsi1 --size +5000G
2024-11-04T09:17:16.179429+01:00 proxmoxsm39 pvedaemon[1773]: <root@pam> end task UPID:proxmoxsm(...)0B:resize:21212:root@pam: OK

Before resizing the hard disk was 9TB, so after 5000GiB expansion I expected 14TB. But now it shows me 119313G (lsblk: 116.5T) ? The funny thing is that the whole cluster doesn't even have that much memory available...

I have already booted both VM and Proxmox... no change, a
Code:
qm disk rescan --vmid 21212
did not help either...

Any idea what the problem is?


Thank you and best regards
Fabian
