Hello!
I had a problem, I previously had a Windows server 2016 system on my server, I installed new disks and loaded Proxmox 8 there, everything worked for more than a month. And one day I needed to restore some files on the old system. After starting Windows, I clicked on Disk Management and it asks me you must initialize a disk before logical disk manager can access it, I hastily clicked on Yes. After rebooting and I see that the systems located on the DATA disk do not boot. The disk shows lvm inactive. Then I realized that I erased the partition table... How can I restore functionality?
